“Faith Over Fear” – Matthew 14:22-36
Are you afraid of the dark? I would venture to guess that you left that particular fear behind years ago. BUT . . . does that mean that you are not afraid of anything? Fear is always with us. We fear failure, rejection, humiliation, aging, death, sickness, broken relationships, and much more. Is this fear sin? How can we conquer it? How should we look at fear in our lives? How does God want us to look at fear? Join us as we try to find answers to these difficult questions. Sermon originally preached on September 18, 2011.
“Handling Adversity” – Sermon by Adam Nelson
How do you handle adversity? How does God want you to handle adversity? On the tenth anniversary of 9-11, it is fitting to think about why God allows suffering into our lives. Join Adam as he delves into James 5 and gets us to look at pain in our lives from God’s perspective. Sermon originally preached on September 11, 2011.
“Don’t Worry; Be Happy!” – Matthew 6:24-35
“He’s got the whole world in his hands. He’s got the whole world in his hands. He’s got the whole world in his hands. He’s got the whole world in his hands.” We sing that song from the time we are kids, and we believe its words with all of our hearts. But . . . often it doesn’t translate practically into our lives, because we worry. Worry demonstrates that we are taking our problems into our own hands, rather than giving them to the God who created us. Join us as we talk about how worry can be a roadblock to our daily faith, and try to see if we can find ways keep our focus on God and not on our problems. Sermon originally preached on September 4, 2011.
“Gotta Have Faith” – Hebrews 11:1-16
“Seeing is Believing!” Isn’t that what we say? But . . . is that always true? Or . . . do our senses sometimes fail us? As Christians we are people of faith, but what does that mean? What is faith? When the Bible talks about faith, is it always talking about the same thing? What does faith do? Whom should we have faith in? Join us as we explore the subject of faith and start on a journey of taking a close look at roadblocks to our faith and trying to remove them from our lives. Sermon originally preached on August 28, 2011.
