    Living Sacrifice Youth Sermon

    Contributed by Youth Sermons on Sep 5, 2023
    based on 4 ratings
     | 811 views

    When we give our lives to Christ, we surrender control and embrace His way. We become citizens of heaven and new creations, sacrificing everything for the sake of the gospel.

    Today, we're going to talk about what it means to live as people who've been saved. We're not just supposed to say "thanks" and move on. We're supposed to live differently. Imagine you've got a brand new phone. It's the latest model, super shiny, and it's all yours. But instead of using it, you ...read more

    Denying ourselves and following Jesus wholeheartedly may not be easy, but it is essential for a life that honors God.

    You know how in a game of Mad Libs, you have a million choices and it's all a bit crazy? Well, life can feel like that too. But in the middle of all that, Jesus is like, Hey, forget about yourself for a minute, and follow me. Hey, forget about yourself for a minute, and follow me. Imagine you're at ...read more

    What does it mean to "take up" or "bear a cross? What does it mean when someone says, "I want to take up my cross and follow Jesus"?

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK This morning I want us to look at a passage of Scripture found in Mark 8:34-35. "Then Jesus called the crowd to Him along with His disciples & said: ‘If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself & take up ...read more

    Jesus does not need nor want an audience in order to heal. He heals to bring people into service. He cures death to bring us to new life today.

    When Jesus Touches… Mark 1:29-37 This morning it was so tempting to start off with a mother-in-law joke. But, I have several problems. First, I have been assured that it would be in very poor taste. Second, it would be a horrible thing to make light of this woman that was reported to be ...read more

     | 6,538 views

    Peter's example in this text reveals to us some qualities of who a servant is and what a servant does.

    * Concept of serving others and God is woven throughout Scripture * Why serving others/God is important: - It's commanded (Gal. 5:13) - Service to God is linked to worship (Matt. 4:10) - When we serve others, we are actually serving God (Matt. 25:40) - When we serve others, we follow Jesus' example ...read more

    This message shows us the power of real, unselfish service. It is a concept that has faded from today’s world.

    “Putting Your Best Foot Forward” Acts 5: 12-42 One of the things that has happened in our society across the years is that our concept of service has greatly changed. What we have seen is that real service has almost become a thing of the past and has been replaced by convenience. Some of you ...read more

    This sermon focuses on Jesus’ challenge for an "Upside Down Kingdom" challenging us to be first by being last. This is a call to except that challenge and become first place in the things God wants us to be excellent in.

    Mark 10:35-45 35 Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to him. "Teacher," they said, "we want you to do for us whatever we ask." 36 "What do you want me to do for you?" he asked. 37 They replied, "Let one of us sit at your right and the other at your left in your glory." 38 "You ...read more

    Life's Great Paradox

    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,386 views

    In this world we are told that climbing the ladder, stepping on other people, and even "being served" is a path to greatness - the Bible teaches something entirely different.

    Life’s Great Paradox Galatians 5:1, 13-15 * To define the word “paradox” is an apparently true statement or group of statements that seems to lead to a contradiction or to a situation that defies intuition. Let me give you a couple of examples; * If a compulsive liar tells you, ...read more

    This message was preached following our spring revival services preached by Phil Lamaster. Phil did a great job. Everyone was moved. But the important thing is what happens following the great messages: getting busy about serving the Lord.

    “SO, NOW WHAT?” MATTHEW 17:1-9 OPEN This past week we had revival services. Excellent revival services. Outstanding preaching. Great singing. A true spiritual high. But what does it all really mean? Are we supposed to now just go back to business as usual? Are we supposed to stay on ...read more
