    Sermon 3 of a 4 part series on the book of Philippians. This sermon is about 2/3 my original thought combined with some great points from Pastors Ed Young and Troy Dobbs.

    The Pursuit of Happiness? Phil. 3:10-21 Intro: Sing “If you’re happy and you know it clap your hands” We live in a country where we believe that there is a God given right for us to seek out our own happiness.

    Written as a Father’s Day message and challenge to sink our roots deep into God to find real happiness.

    Many are familiar with the “beattitudes” in Jesus’ sermon on the mount. They include: • “Blessed (or happy) are the poor in spirit – those who realize their need for God – for the Kingdom of Heaven is given to them.” • “Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.” • “Blessed are ...read more

    One of the basic instincts in people is to pursue after happiness. Or a better word would be to look for joy in life. The problem is that we look for it in all the wrong places.

    The pursuit of happiness John 15:9-11 (NIV) 9 "As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. 10 If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father’s commands and remain in his love. 11 I have told you this so that my joy may be in you ...read more

    How do we find happiness? Paul gives us some fantastically good advice! For the non-formulaic (that’s me!) this is as close to a formula as you get!

    The secret of happiness. Phil 4:4-9 WBC 19.03.06am Well- another fantastic passage this morning. Tonight is ’the secret of contentment"- which is slightly different - and I don’t want to be a hypocrite, this morning. I’m not saying this is something I’ve got sussed. Sometimes I’m a good example of ...read more

    An encouraging (but reforming) sermon for people who are ’gay’ but not happy.

    Today, I will be using the term ‘gay’ in both its original form and its contemporary form, so let me define it both ways for you this morning. Originally, GAY meant: to be characterized by colorful and lighthearted excitement: MERRY. As in, “Have a GAY day!” In the old days, wishing your neighbor ...read more

    In the Beatitudes Jesus lays out the road to true happiness, not the happiness that the world promises but the happiness, fulfillment and contentment that can only come as we live as God created us to live. This message covers the second of the Beatitude

    Jesus gives us his tips for being happy in life; but they sure are different than what you’ve always heard! The world says, "Happy is the man who has ever desire met..." but Jesus says... *HANDOUT INCLUDED*

    HOW TO GET ALONG WITH GOD AND OTHERS Mt 5:1 ¶ And seeing the multitudes, He went up on a mountain, and when He was seated His disciples came to Him. 2 Then He opened His mouth and taught them, saying: 3 ¶ "Blessed are the poor in spirit, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 4 Blessed are those ...read more

    Most people attend church with about as much enthusiasm as going to the dentist to have a tooth pulled. David said he looked forward with eager anticipation to being in God’s house. We need that same attitude that of being happy churchgoers.

    The key to happiness is resting in the fact that God never changes. I give 3 areas most Christians put there happiness and how it leads to dissatisfaction. I also give 3 areas where God does not change and how that leads to true happiness.

    It probably surprises you to learn that a book like Revelation begins with the word blessed. How in the world can this prophetic book make us happy? Revelation makes Christ’s Church happy because it reminds us that our King is on His throne.

    “Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near. John, to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace to you and peace from Him who is and who was and who is to come, and from the seven Spirits who are ...read more
