    Remember The Sacrifice Youth Sermon

     | 658 views

    Memorial Day is a time to remember and honor those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. As Christians, we are also reminded of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ and are called to live sacrificially in our daily lives.

    Jesus didn't just talk about sacrifice, He lived it. He gave up His life for us. That's the ultimate sacrifice. And because of that, we have the chance to know God and have eternal life. "Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends." (John 15:13) Memorial Day is all ...read more

    Being 'given' means spending your life out of love for Jesus, living for the world, and continuing the circle of grace. It's about surrendering to Jesus and allowing Him to use us for the sake of the world.

    Imagine your life is like a loaf of bread. Now, bread on its own is pretty ordinary, right? But what happens when we give it to Jesus? It becomes something extraordinary. Let's look at a story from the Bible, in Luke 24:30-32. It says, 'When Jesus was at the table with them, He took the bread, ...read more

    The key to living a generous life is increasing our awareness of the needs around us and taking action to meet those needs.

    We all want to live our best life, right? But sometimes, we get tricked by stuff that promises to make us happy but doesn't. Today, I've got something that can really make a difference - generosity. It's not some magic trick, but it can bring real joy, satisfaction, and make a difference that ...read more

    Desire alone is not enough to make us generous. We must actively engage in acts of generosity. When we bring what we have to God, he can do amazing things. It's a simple formula: What We Have + Who God is = Enough.

    Today, we're talking about being generous. Here's the deal: wanting to be generous isn't enough. We've got to do something about it. It's like wanting to get fit. You can't just wish for it; you've got to eat right and work out. Same with generosity. We've got to do generous stuff. So, what are you ...read more

    As Christians, we are called to use our money wisely, avoid debt, be content with what we have, and be generous to others.

    Here's the thing, money isn't bad. It's like a hammer, it's just a tool. We earn it, save it, give it, and yeah, we spend it. But we gotta be careful not to blow it all on stuff we don't need.

    Living generously creates a ripple effect that can impact others and future generations. Our generosity is a response to Jesus' self-sacrificing love and can inspire others to be generous.

    You know when you toss a pebble into a pond, and it creates ripples that spread out? That's what we're talking about. Our actions, like that pebble, can create ripples that impact others. We've all been influenced by someone, and that person was influenced by someone before them. It's like a chain ...read more

    God's provision is abundant, and He wants to bless us. We must remember that our ministry is not about hoarding resources but about sharing them with others. As we steward God's blessings and keep His end goal in mind, we will see measurable fruit in our mission.

    Let's talk about something cool today. You know how we always worry about not having enough? Enough money, enough time, enough friends? Well, guess what? God's got us covered. He's like the ultimate provider. Remember that story in the Bible about the Israelites wandering in the desert? They were ...read more

    We can do a lot of things for a lot of reasons...but if what we do is not "seasoned" with a measure of love, genuine love, it is for nothing.

    Every believer ought to be a philanthropist in that they seek the welfare of those around them. That is not to say that we support ungodly behavior, but that we seek to assist those in need.
