Generation Church

We are living in the age of perpetual offense, where we’re quick to judge, quick to criticize, quick to condemn, and quick to cancel anyone who offends us. We see this in politics, music, news, and social media through cynicism, complaining, disrespect, backbiting, tearing down, and cancel culture. Division is everywhere. People are going off on each other about anything and everything. And Christ...

How many of us ask God for special treatment? When we hold on to assumptions on how God should be healing us we might be rejecting solutions because we don't like that it's not be the easy way to do something. If we're obedient to God, and begin to humble ourselves, and listen to the Holy Spirit, we open the door to the miraculous work of God. Lean in to whatever God is telling you to...

Many people think of Psalm 23 as a passage to read at a funeral or in hardship. But it’s not just a psalm of comfort in times of despair; it’s a word of encouragement for all of life. In this sermon, we’ll dive deep, verse by verse, into the meaning of this Psalm and how it applies to our lives today.

When you have an anointing from God, there will be side effects. It may not be what you expect, but the anointing will enable and empower you to do things that would not be possible without God’s help or strength. We see this when David was anointed as the future King of Israel. When David was first anointed, he didn’t immediately become King. Still, the anointing empowered him to do things that w...

The longer you are a Christian, the more you think you have doctrine all figured out. You might even get to the point where you are having advanced theological debates. But when it comes to gray issues or disputable matters, you may not know as much as you think you do. In those cases, you should pray and ask the Holy Spirit to guide you. It would also help if you got counsel from wise people, you...

Marriage is a sacrificial and mutually beneficial commitment between one man and one woman for one lifetime. That is how God intended it. But for many, when marriage isn’t what it’s supposed to be, they are quick to quit and stop doing what they promised to do. This is not what God intended for marriage. Although there can be possible justifications for divorce due to the “hardness of heart” (such...

You might be here today, struggling through a difficult season and feeling like you don’t know how to fix it. You’ve even turned to various remedies to patch up yourself and your relationship with God, but it doesn’t work. What may be happening is that God is inviting you amid your circumstances to find Him in a whole new way. He is inviting you to get in the dirt and roll around with Him so that...

In 1 Corinthians 7, Paul gives us practical advice on how to live a fulfilling Christian life regardless of your marital status. If you are single, remember that this waiting season is an opportunity to become the person that the kind of person you want to marry would like to marry. If you are married, God’s plan is for you to enjoy the sanctity of marriage. So whether single or married, young or...

When you go through difficult situations, from which none of us are exempt, whether it’s the loss of a job, a breakup in a relationship, or a diagnosis that you never thought was going to come, you have an opportunity to respond in such a way to turn it for the advantage of what God has for your life. You must learn to leverage your unfair opportunities so God can bring about a greater purpose in...

One issue our world is very confused about is the sin of homosexuality. Even some Christians are confused and deceived about this matter. So, in this sermon, we will look at what the bible says about homosexuality. We will talk about some of the most common lies, points of confusion, and clever deceptions you’re likely to hear or struggle with as a Christian.

There is no way around it — the body of Christ will experience some drama and conflict just by going about ordinary life. The question then is, how do you handle this? Thankfully, the Word of God directs us in handling disputes, and it’s similar to what you’d expect from a family — by being able to forgive and show mercy.

Christianity often gets associated with the cross, but without the resurrection, our faith would be meaningless. We’re here because Jesus died and rose again! The resurrection is the foundation of our faith and is why we can have eternal life. Nobody else has that power but Jesus, and His resurrection proves it!

Palm Sunday is the day we celebrate the triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem. Yet a few days later, He was murdered by the Jews, crucified by the Romans, and killed because of us. The Jews did not recognize Jesus as our savior then; will you do the same today? Will you be like those who cry out, “Crucify him!” Or will you be the one who cries out, “Hosanna! God save me!”

Many people deal with situations with their family that they would describe as “drama.” It may come from external sources, but usually, the “family drama” involves at least one person acting in an ungodly way. The same can happen among most church families, just like the Corinthians did back in their day. And just like the Corinthians, we must learn to identify and deal with it in a way that honor...

Sometimes, we all need to be rebuked. The Lord rebukes us because He loves us. How you respond to God's rebuke determines the level of pain you experience in your life. We all have moments where we sin and need correction, whether that correction comes from the Holy Spirit, the Bible, or a brother or sister-in-Christ. You have to decide in advance how you will respond to those moments. Will yo...

Whether you’re rich or poor in this life or live a long or short life, you can faithfully serve the Lord in a way that will result in an eternal reward. How do you receive this eternal reward? It starts with you thinking ahead. You must live, serve, and give with eternity in mind.

There are two words from the Bible that everyone in the Western World knows, has committed to heart, has meditated on, and speaks out boldly like their life depends on it — Judge Not! But when we look further at scripture, we see that not only are we permitted to judge, but we must judge, albeit with a crucial caveat — we are not the ultimate judge; God is.

Real wisdom comes when you can understand and apply spiritual truth in the natural world. Where does this spiritual truth come from? It comes from God. Because God’s Spirit lives in you, you can know God’s thoughts and learn to think like God. You can learn to see the world through His eyes. The more you think, see, and feel like Him, the more your old, sinful, natural mind can be transformed into...

The most common mistake Christians make is that they think they need convincing arguments to defend the faith or lead people to Christ. Yet we see those who rebel against God only immerse themselves in foolishness, making it hard to get through them. The good news is that you don’t need to present Jesus with clever arguments. You don’t even need to preach lofty philosophical dissertations. You jus...

In 1 Corinthians, Paul is writing to the church in Corinth to rebuke and correct them, leaving them with a choice they need to make. What kind of problems do they want? Will they choose the discomfort of discipline or the pain of self-destruction? It’s the same choice we still have today when the Holy Spirit confronts our sinful flesh with scriptural truth.

As a church, it is time to step up and truly represent Christ in the world. Just like a sweet fragrance, our lives have the power to impact heaven and earth through our lifestyle, worship, integrity, and service. Let us embrace the call to bold prayer and discover the liberating freedom found only in a relationship with Jesus.

The church is made up of people with different backgrounds, cultures, and preferences. This means there will be different opinions on non-essential matters like worship styles or church practices, and that’s okay. The key is to remember that these differences are secondary to our shared identity in Christ. We need different people with different preferences and gifts working together in harmony in...

Baptism is not just a tradition but a powerful symbol of starting a new life in Christianity. When you accept Jesus as your Savior, you are transformed into a new person! Baptism is a public celebration that your old life is gone and your new life has begun. This means saying goodbye to the stain of sin and hello to new life in Jesus.

The Corinthian Church had many issues when Paul wrote 1 Corinthians. He wrote this letter to help them with their struggles and confusion, but God also inspired these words to help us with our present-day struggles and confusion. Through this letter, we see the significance of being chosen and set apart by God, the importance of recognizing and using the gifts God has given us, and the balance bet...

When we are against all odds, don’t understand what is happening, or have been in the lion’s den for a long time, how can we trust God? We know we can trust God because He is faithful. We see this in the life of Daniel. He continually puts his trust in God and shows us that when we trust God, we can obey Him, trust His timing, and display His power.
