Westmark Church Sermons

Join us in Romans 8:12-17 as Pastor Noah walks through how Paul gives Christians a radically different way to understand themselves and their relationship to Jesus.  You might have had to earn a place at work, in your family growing up, and maybe you failed to.  But you don't need to earn a place in the family of God. You just need to live in the place you've already been given.  Are you...

Who gets to tell you who you are? Most of us spend our lives trying to answer the question, “Who am I?” We build our identity around what we accomplish, how others see us, our relationships, our failures, our reputation, or the roles we fill. But anything powerful enough to give us an identity can also become something we have to constantly protect and prove. Join us in 2 Corinthians 5:16–21, as P...

Pastor Noah Tyler, John 20:19-31

What comes to mind when you think about God? All of us carry assumptions-- ideas we've inherited, conclusions we've drawn from painful experiences, of things we've simply heard so many times that we stopped asking whether they were actually true. But sincerity doesn't replace accuracy.  In John 20:1-18, Mary Magdalene, Peter, and John come to the empty tomb carrying their own c...

Some people will go to great lengths to make themselves look better or just to get a better look at themselves. Is that you?  Pastor Noah Tyler of Westmark Church leads us through Luke 7:36-50 where we will one person who wants to use Jesus to make himself look better, and another who sees Jesus as worth worshipping.  Thank you for joining us for the message today! We’re glad you’re here. Westmark...

Pastor Ryan shares today from Luke 18:18 –30, where Jesus encounters a rich ruler who is searching for eternal life. This passage challenges us to consider what we’re holding onto and reminds us that what may seem impossible for us is possible with God. Following Jesus means trusting Him above everything else—and there is great encouragement in knowing that nothing we give up for His sake is ever...

Fear can leave you stuck. ashamed, and afraid to take the next step. But in Mark 5:21-43, Jesus shows us that fear does not have to control our future. You can't step out in faith while staying sunk down in fear. In this message from Westmark Church's "In Good Company" sermon series, Pastor Noah explores the stories of Jairus and the woman who had suffered for twelve years. One...

Most of us have said it before: "I was going to..."  So much regret can be tied up in those words. I was going to lose weight. I was going to fix it. I was going to forgive them. I was going to quit that. I was going to finish that. No one plans to live an "I was going to" life, but many people end up drifting into one.  In this message from 2 Thessalonians 1:11-12, Pastor Noah...

There are some people you don't just think about-- you carry them. A child making choices that scare you. A friend drifting from Jesus. Someone suffering, lonely, or pull in in the wrong direction. You love them deeply but you can't control them.  So, what do you do with that burden?  In 1 Thessalonians 3:9-13, Paul shows us what love does when it cannot fix, control, or be present: love...

What should you do when you don't know what to do?  Is your first instinct to pray? People pray for all sorts of reasons-- We pray before meals, we pray when the test results come back. We pray when the relationship is falling apart. We pray when we get pulled over.  And, sometimes, even people who say they don't believe in God find themselves crying out to him when they don't know...

What should we pray for when we feel weak, empty, worn down, or stuck? In this message from our Praying Like Paul series, Pastor Noah Tyler guides us through Paul's prayer in Ephesians 3:14 -21 to learn to pray for power. But it isn't what you might think of when you first hear "power." Not power so we can become more impressive, but power so we can become closer to Jesus.  Pau...

We all want our prayers to matter. Even people who struggle to believe in God will reach out to him in times of distress and pain. But is your whole prayer life praying for your food, safe travels, and sweet dreams? By looking at the content and heart behind the Apostle Paul's prayers in the New Testament, we will discover how to take our prayers to greater heights, into greater depths, and f...

In this final sermon from our Seven Deadly Sins series, Lead Pastor Noah Tyler begins in 1 Thessalonians 4:3-8 on to teach on lust as a disordered love of sexual pleasure. Looking at a number of different scriptures we see that lust promises satisfaction, but it slowly deceives us, isolates us, and teaches us to use people instead of love them. But the gospel offers something better. In Christ, we...

This week at Westmark Church, we continue our series on the Seven Deadly Sins with a heart-level look at gluttony. Gluttony is not merely about eating too much. It is about being ruled by appetite. In Philippians 3:17 –21, Paul warns about those whose “god is their belly,” showing us that appetite can become a master when food becomes more than food — a refuge, reward, medication, or source of sat...

In this sermon from Matthew 25:24 –30, Pastor Noah Tyler continues our series through the Seven Deadly Sins by looking at the sin of sloth. But sloth is not simply laziness. As this message explains, sloth can hide in both laziness and busyness. At its root, sloth is escaping love’s cost of growing or changing. Jesus’ parable of the talents shows us a servant who buried what his master entrusted t...

You might be greedier than you think/ It's easier than we'd like to admit to fall into the trap of "moreism"-- what I have is never enough, but more will be. Always hungry, never satisfied.  Listen as Kurt Holen, Elder and Pastoral Apprentice at Westmark Church, walks us through the biblical teachings on greed and it's antidote of teaching. You may be surprised at how the...

You might not think that you're green with envy, but what if envy was a lot more than just a fleeting moment of jealousy? And what if it was much more dangerous?  Envy is more than wanting what someone else has; envy is the anxiety produced from believing that someone else is earning the love you deserve. In this sermon, Pastor Noah Tyler continues our series through The Seven Deadly Sins by...

Anger is not always sinful, so how can you tell the difference between Good Anger and Bad Anger? In this sermon from our Seven Deadly Sins series, we look at what anger is, how to tell the difference between righteous and sinful anger, and how to trace back anger to the heart.  While we think much of our anger is about fighting the ultimate justice, it turns out that a lot of our own anger is real...

The 7 Deadly Sins root down and cut caverns into our heart, they shape our character, and go on to shape our life. How can we be rid of them? Pride does not put us in danger of thinking too highly of ourselves. It can also traps us in insecurity, isolation and a constant need for approval. All that fruit actually comes a need disordered love for recognition.  In this sermon out of Daniel 4, Pastor...

You don't know what you don't know. But, sometimes we go a long time in our ignorance before we finally have a light bulb moment. Join us in Luke 24 as Pastor Noah Tyler walks us through the first Easter morning and we discover how the resurrection from the dead can change something you thought was absolute nonsense, into something as acceptable as commonsense.  This is sermon shows us h...

Maybe you've felt confused or discouraged when you've heard about spiritual gifts. Some people are excited to discover what they were given in the Spirit, only to spend a lot of time with little results. Listen to Pastor Noah Tyler work through 1 Corinthians 12 to find out: what does the Bible really mean by "gifts"? Looking at the text, we will see that the Holy Spirit does no...
