Road To The Cross - Unwavering Mission
In our new series leading up to Easter, we take a look at the road Jesus walked that ultimately led to the cross. In this sermon, Sean examines the faithfulness of Jesus to the Father’s plan. He didn’t waver, but said “Not my will, but Your’s be done.”
A Path Forward
In the middle of COVID-19 fears, worries, and wondering, Sean points us to the comfort Psalm 23 brings us: the LORD is our shepherd, and He is with us. We shall not want because He is all we need and He never changes!
Colossians - The Gospel Is What Binds Us Together
"Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving. At the same time, pray also for us, that God may open to us a door for the word, to declare the mystery of Christ, on account of which I am in prison— that I may make it clear, which is how I ought to speak. Walk in wisdom toward outsiders, making the best use of the time. Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer each person."
Colossians 4:2-5
Colossians - Christ-Centered Life (part 2)
"Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony."
Colossians 3:12-14
Colossians - Christ-Centered Life (part 1)
"If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ who is your life appears, then you also will appear with him in glory."
Colossians 3:1-4
Colossians - Focused On Christ
"Let no one disqualify you, insisting on asceticism and worship of angels, going on in detail about visions, puffed up without reason by his sensuous mind, and not holding fast to the Head, from whom the whole body, nourished and knit together through its joints and ligaments, grows with a growth that is from God." Colossians 2:18-19
Colossians - You Have It All
Our true hope and our true joy is found at the cross of Christ, where our record of debt was forgiven! We are now made alive in Him, and with thankfulness, we live for His kingdom and His glory.
Colossians - Him We Proclaim
What if we didn't view suffering as an inward, negative thing, but a chance to outwardly glorify God, proclaim His name, and encourage and build up the church? Sean speaks into this as we continue our look at Colossians.
Colossians - Supremacy Of Christ
“He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him. And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together. And he is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in everything he might be preeminent.”
Colossians - Praying For Spiritual Growth
"And so, from the day we heard, we have not ceased to pray for you, asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, so as to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to him: bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God."
Colossians 1:9-10
Colossians - In Christ
Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, To the saints and faithful brothers in Christ at Colossae: Grace to you and peace from God our Father. We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you, since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love that you have for all the saints, because of the hope laid up for you in heaven. Of this you have heard before in the word of the truth, the gospel, which has come to you, as indeed in the whole world it is bearing fruit and increasing—as it also does among you, since the day you heard it and understood the grace of God in truth, just as you learned it from Epaphras our beloved fellow servant. He is a faithful minister of Christ on your behalf and has made known to us your love in the Spirit.
The Aroma Of Christ - Vision 2020
For we are the aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing, to one a fragrance from death to death, to the other a fragrance from life to life. Who is sufficient for these things? For we are not, like so many, peddlers of God's word, but as men of sincerity, as commissioned by God, in the sight of God we speak in Christ.
2 Corinthians 2:15-17
A New Year In Light Of The Gospel
It's a new year, but the implications of the Gospel don't change. Sean reminds us what Jesus has done for us and what that means as we walk into this year!
Enjoying God (Psalm 19)
In light of Christmas, we know that our God is with us. So how do we enjoy that wonderful truth? Josh leads us through some scripture that helps us do just that as we prepare to enter into a new year.
A Thrill Of Hope - Christ Is With Us
For our annual Christmas Eve Eve service, Sean teaches us about our reality now that Christ is with us. When we were far off, He came near. When we were lost, He found us. It is all because of Christ!
A Thrill Of Hope - Love
Our 4th week in our Advent series, lighting the Love candle. Sean talks through Mary's response to finding out she would give birth to the Son of God. In what ways can we respond similarly to her in our life?
A Thrill Of Hope - Joy
All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the prophet:
“Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son,
and they shall call his name Immanuel”
(which means, God with us).
Matthew 1:22-23
A Thrill Of Hope - Peace
"Glory to God in the highest, and on earth, peace among those with whom he is pleased!"
Luke 2:1-14
Psalm 23
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters.
He restores my soul.
He leads me in paths of righteousness
for his name's sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies;
you anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
all the days of my life,
and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD
forever.
Sermon On The Mount - The Authority Of Jesus
"And when Jesus finished these sayings, the crowds were astonished at his teaching, for he was teaching them as one who had authority, and not as their scribes."
Matthew 7:28-29
