The Crucified King PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Sep 25, 2025

God meets us in our deepest pain, offering hope and love through Christ, transforming our cries into praise and gathering us into His redeemed people.

Some of us walked in today with a quiet ache. You smiled at the door, shook a hand or two, found your seat, but there’s a knot that won’t untie. A prayer that feels unanswered. A hurt that won’t heal on a schedule. A memory that still stings. If that’s you, you are not alone. God sees you. He is ...read more

The Trinity PRO Sermon

God lovingly calls us to listen, trust, and obey Him, promising peace and blessing when we surrender our stubbornness and follow His faithful guidance.

Friends, some days the volume of life drowns out the Voice that matters most. Bills stack up, calendars crowd in, regrets from yesterday rattle the nerves of today. Yet, over the noise, God still speaks. Isaiah 48 opens like a loving Father calling from the front porch: Come here, listen to Me. I ...read more

Transformation PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 4, 2025

God invites us to surrender our old ways, receive a new heart, and experience true transformation through His Spirit and renewing our minds.

Some mornings feel like reruns. Same burdens. Same battles. Same buttons being pushed by the same people. You wake up with good intentions, yet old habits hang on like heavy coats in summer. You want to change. You’ve promised to change. You’ve tried to change. Still, the mirror shows yesterday’s ...read more

I'm Still Here — Because He's Able! PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 17, 2025

God lovingly keeps us from falling, presents us blameless with joy, and deserves our wholehearted worship because His grace is greater than our weakness.

Some of us limped in today. Some wandered in with a smile that is doing its best to hide a storm. Others came in steady, but even the steady among us know how slick life can be. Faith can feel like walking on wet marble—heart in your throat, palms open, hoping you won’t go sliding. Do you ever feel ...read more

Faith Outworked PRO Sermon

True worship requires sincere hearts and just actions, not empty rituals; God desires authentic faith that transforms both our inner lives and outward behavior.

You brought your whole week with you, and that’s good, because the God who loves you meets you as you are. He is wonderfully near, whispering through His Word, “I see you. I ...read more

Friend, pull up a chair and take a deep breath. If your week felt like spilled cereal, missing socks, and schedules that didn’t stick, you’re in good company. If you’re a mom who has whispered prayers in the pantry, a grandmother who still carries names in a worn-out prayer journal, a woman whose ...read more

Here He Comes Again PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 24, 2025

Jesus meets us in our weakness, restores what is withered, and calls us to receive his mercy and healing, even when others resist compassion.

Friends, some of us walked in today with hands that feel tired and hearts that feel thin. Maybe you’ve been carrying a hurt so long it’s started to shape the way you hold yourself. Maybe your courage has curled up, your patience has pinched in, your hope has shrunk to the size of a clenched fist. ...read more

Talents: God’s Gifts And Expectations PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 27, 2025

God entrusts each of us with unique gifts and opportunities, calling us to faithful, courageous stewardship that honors Him and blesses others.

Some mornings it feels like heaven has hung a “Help Wanted” sign over your heart. You sense it when you tuck in a child, when you clock in at work, when you linger over the needs of a neighbor. The King of the cosmos has placed something in your hands—time, talents, and treasures—and whispered, “I ...read more

I Am Who He Says I Am PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 29, 2025

God meets us in our hidden, ordinary places, calls us by His name, and transforms our weakness into strength through His presence and grace.

Some days feel like threshing wheat in a winepress—hidden, cramped, and far from ideal. You’re just trying to get by, head down, doing what needs to be done, praying the storm will pass. Maybe that’s you this week. Bills piled high. Criticism louder than courage. A heart that’s willing but worn. ...read more

God’s Got A Way Of Surprising The Room PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 30, 2025

God chooses and equips the overlooked, valuing the heart over appearance, and invites us to trust His presence and purpose in our ordinary lives.

Have you ever felt unseen? Like the world is busy measuring muscles and metrics while your quiet faithfulness hums in the background? Perhaps you walked in carrying a silent ache: overlooked at work, underestimated at home, uncertain about tomorrow. If that’s you, take heart. The God who counts ...read more

Me And The Mrs. Series

Contributed by Andy Stanley on Aug 23, 2011

If we do almost nothing for our children but give them a great marriage, then that counts for more than anything else. But to do that, you have to have guardrails.
