Stand-Alone | The Purpose & Power of God's Word | November 24

SUNDAY SERMON

Sermon by Brandon Clements on November 24, 2024.

We are often distracted many different things that gain our attention and focus.  This week we look at the Apostle Paul's words that show us 3 distinct benefits of focusing our attention on the Lord.

Year of Biblical Literacy

This series is part of our Year of Biblical Literacy initiative.

The Bible is one of the most influential books ever written. It’s the most studied, most scrutinized, most debated, and, for many, the most life-changing book the world has ever known. 

But…it’s complex.

So we’re taking an entire year to grow our ability to read and understand the message of the whole Bible. 

We’re calling it a “Year of Biblical Literacy.” 

Jesus & the Little Ones | August 6

Sermon by Jake Blair on August 6, 2023.

This week we look at Luke 18:15-17, where Jesus encounters little children. The disciples meet the children as though they’re an obstacle to Jesus’ mission, but Jesus says the Kingdom belongs to them. So what does Jesus mean by that, and what does that mean for us?

Jesus & the Doubter | July 30

Sermon by Michael Bailey on July 30, 2023.

This week we look at John 20, where Jesus encounters Thomas. In this passage, Thomas doubts Jesus' resurrection, and Jesus meets him in his doubt. So what does this passage mean for us when we wrestle with doubt?

Jesus & the Bully | July 23

Sermon by Adam Gibson on July 23, 2023.

This week we look at Luke 19:1-10 where we meet Zacchaeus, a man who made himself rich by taking advantage of others. So what happens when he encounters King Jesus? And what does Jesus have to say to us through a story like this?

Jesus & the Outcast | July 16

Sermon by Brandon Clements on July 16, 2023.

This week we look at Luke 5:12-14 where Jesus meets a leper. Lepers at that time were the literal embodiment of an outcast. So how does Jesus interact with him, and how does Jesus meet us in our shame?

Jesus & the Hurting | July 9

Sermon by Ant Frederick on July 9 , 2023.

This week we look at John 11, where Jesus meets Mary and Martha in their grief over their brother Lazarus’ death. So how does Jesus meet them in their pain, and how does Jesus meet us in ours?

Jesus & the Slow to Learn | July 2

Sermon by Andrew Flowers on July 2 , 2023.

This week we look again to Peter. In Luke 22, we see Peter do what he said he would never do: deny his Lord Jesus. How does Jesus respond to Peter, who is slow to learn and trips and falls along the way? What does that mean for us, along with our relationship with Jesus and others?

Jesus & the Jealous | June 25

Sermon by Brandon Clements on June 25, 2023.

This week we look at Matthew 19:27-20:16, where Peter essentially asks Jesus, “Is following you truly worth it?” This is a question we may have asked at some point in our journey of faith. We can easily play the comparison game, or we go through a season of suffering, or life doesn’t turn out how we thought it would. So what does Jesus have to say to us?

Stand-Alone | The Parable of the Wonderful Father | June 18

Sermon by Michael Bailey on June 18, 2023.

In Luke 15, we find one of Jesus' most famous teachings. It is often called "the Parable of the Prodigal Son" or "the Parable of the Two Sons." While the two siblings have much to teach us, perhaps we are also invited to understand this passage through a different lens: the Parable of the Wonderful Father. In this passage, Jesus radically upends what many believe God is like and invites us to recapture the wonder of His love and grace.
