John 1:14-28 / Do you know who you are and what you have been made for? Many Christians don’t. The purpose of our Christian faith is often clouded by our culture, pragmatism, elitism, politics, entertainment and other distractions that only serve to make us tepid and ineffectual. In this sermon, John the Baptist serves as an example of what it means to know what we’ve made for and unabashedly embr...

John 1:1-13 / Of the four gospels, John most clearly magnifies that divine attributes of Jesus.

Brotherly Love / 1 John 2:8-11 In today’s message, we will cover some hindrances in our brotherly love, and then clearly see how Jesus Christ is the best brother a man could have.

Acts 5:1-11

Ephesians 6:18-24 /In our last sermon on Finding Our Identity, Paul closes his letter to Ephesus by calling them to prayer. In this study we look at the discipline of prayer and discuss it as a necessity of spiritual warfare. We also look at the value and importance of a ministry that delegates in order to meet the needs of the church.

Ephesians 6:16-17 / Are we preparing for evil days, trials and difficulty by actively putting on the whole armor of God? In the last sermon we looked at the first three elements in the divine armor of God, this week we look at three more. Join us as we consider what it means to find our identity as a soldier engaged in a spiritual warfare.

Ephesians 6:14-15 / Each of us face “evil days” in our lives, moments where we are frustrated with our circumstances, afraid and tempted to despair. As Christians, do we know how to remain resolved and emotionally strong in those seasons of life? Do we acknowledge the nature of our enemy’s warfare? Are we actively preparing by putting on the whole armor of God?

Ephesians 6:11-13 / We have an enemy who actively seeks our deception, distraction and destruction. He hates us with a passion and his influence and power is greater and more extensive than we can imagine. Do we know who he is? Do we know how to prepare ? Are we battle ready?

Ephesians 6:10 / We have learned so much from Ephesians about our identity, but as we reach the closing admonition we learn a hard truth - that we must be fearless in the face of difficulty. Hard ship is common to all people, but the way in which Christians endure life’s challenges should be unique. Today we consider, what does it mean to fight life’s battles in the courage of Christ?

Ephesians 6:5-9 / Work is hard and relationships at work can be even harder. From time to time, we all struggle with having the right heart attitude in our work place.

Ephesians 6:1-4 / Our parents have given us life and they have contributed so much to who we are as people; sometimes for good and sometimes for bad. But because we have a Heavenly Father who gives us a spiritual identity, we have the capacity to obey and honor our parents regardless of how wonderful or tenuous our relationship has been. In this sermon, we discuss what it looks like as adults to b...

Ephesians 5:31-33 / In the previous sermon we discussed the relationship between identity, values and marriage readiness. This week we will take more time to focus on the relationship between our idenity and how we understand singleness. We also provide a brief guide for dating that is intended to help us change our perspectives and make the prospect of dating less scary and more biblical.

Ephesians 5:17-21 / Many young people desire marriage, but in terms of your values and identity, are you ready? Are you establishing an identity now that will prepare you for the partnership and unity of marriage? How does marriage picture our identity in Christ?

Ephesians 5:17-21 / As we continue in Ephesians 5 we discuss how your identity is shaped by simply hearing God tell you what is important to him. Our confidence and growth is rooted deeply in whether or not we learn to value what God tells us to value.
