#169 Quit Your Religion 07.01.2024

From the series: Out with the Old Confirmation. Communion. Praying a certain way. God's house. So many of us grew up thinking we had to approach God with certain practices that were supposedly more holy than others. But in light of what Jesus has made possible, those are just barriers to knowing God. If you'd like to support the ministry of Access Church, you can do so by visiting us at ⁠⁠...

#168 Why The Old Religion Is Done 01.01.2024

From the series: Out with the Old Judaism is where Christianity came from. God worked with the nation of Israel to set apart a people of His own and bring about a Savior. But once Jesus finished His work, the old religion became obsolete and a new one was put in it's place. If you'd like to support the ministry of Access Church, you can do so by visiting us at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠...

#167 Why Celebrate Christmas? 24.12.2023

From the series: Songs of the Season Baby Jesus. Angels. Shepherds. Manger. Most of us know the details of the Christmas story. But do we really know why we celebrate Christmas? Turns out there's incredible joy available for every one of us. If you'd like to support the ministry of Access Church, you can do so by visiting us at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠...

#166 We Can Finally Know God 17.12.2023

From the series: Songs of the Season The question, "What is God like?" has been in the minds of people throughout history. Unfortunately, without being able to actually see Him, we've just had to guess. But in the song "Silent Night" we're reminded of a way to finally have that question answered. If you'd like to support the ministry of Access Church, you can do so...

#165 Stop Trying To Work Towards God 10.12.2023

From the series: Songs of the Season Most people and even most religions teach that we have to work our way to God. Be good enough, try hard enough, work towards perfection. But the Christmas story shows us something completely different. If you'd like to support the ministry of Access Church, you can do so by visiting us at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠...

#164 If You Feel Forgotten By God, This Is For You 03.12.2023

From the series: Songs of the Season When we face struggles and difficulties in life, it's only natural to question God. Often times we're led to believe that God is either busy or inattentive to our needs. But when we take to look at his track record, we get a different picture. If you'd like to support the ministry of Access Church, you can do so by visiting us at  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠...

#163 The Key to Being More Thankful 26.11.2023

From the series: Discovering God's Will. We don't always want to follow God's instructions for life, but when it comes to being thankful, we're on the same page. The problem is that many of us struggle to actually be thankful. But what if there was a different way of viewing life that could actually produce gratitude in our hearts? If you'd like to support the ministry of Acces...

#162 The Difficulty of Following God's Will 19.11.2023

From the series: Discovering God's Will God's will for Christians is pretty clear, but that doesn't mean it's easy. He's asked us to do some incredibly challenging things to reach others. But He's also given us a source of life to pull from. If you'd like to support the ministry of Access Church, you can do so by visiting us at  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠...

#161 Let's Talk About Sex 12.11.2023

From the series: Discovering God's Will Let's talk about sex. God isn't embarrassed to talk about it. In fact, He gives us some great instructions about sex and how to prevent unnecessary pain in our lives. If you'd like to support the ministry of Access Church, you can do so by visiting us at  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠...

#160 What is God's will for my life? 05.11.2023

From the series: Discovering God's Will Most of us have probably asked the question, "What's God's will for my life?" And while we may not always know His unique will for every situation, we can know His universal will. And there's one thing that's more important than anything else. Song for Reflection: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z65YxhqY0_E If you'd like to...

#159 There's One Key Ingredient to a Better Life 29.10.2023

The good news is that such a thing exists - it's just building a relationship with God. In this message, we talk about the benefits of actually experiencing God in our daily lives. If you'd like to support the ministry of Access...

#158 Managing Your Emotions 22.10.2023

From the series: Doing Life Better Emotions are a key part of what makes us human, and we should learn to embrace them. However, many of us have become driven or overwhelmed by our emotions. When this happens, we end up creating even bigger problems and hurt ourselves and others in the process. The key to doing life better is learning to manage our emotions. If you'd like to support the minist...

#157 The Key To Really Forgiving Others (Originally Recorded 10/15/23) 17.10.2023

From the series: Doing Life Better We all know that we should forgive. It's not a matter or whether or not we should do it. Our biggest struggle is how to forgive. Luckily for us, Jesus gives us a great perspective to work from. If you'd like to support the ministry of Access Church, you can do so by visiting us at  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠...

#156 The Power Of Personal Responsibility (Originally Recorded 10/8/23) 17.10.2023

From the series: Doing Life Better What if there was a question we could ask ourselves that would help us improve any area of our lives? Sound too good to be true? It's not. There's a lot of power in personal responsibility. If you'd like to support the ministry of Access Church, you can do so by visiting us at  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠...

#155 A Deeper Kind Of Honesty (Originally Recorded 10/1/23) 17.10.2023

From the series: Doing Life Better We all know that being honest is a good idea. But so often, we think honesty only applies to our relationships with other people. But in this message, we talk about other types of honesty that are just as important...if not even more.

#154 Don't Keep Jesus To Yourself (Originally Recorded 9/24/23) 17.10.2023

From the series: We Get To Do This We all share good news with others - finding a good restaurant, discovering a new TV show, enjoying a great vacation. And God's heart is that we'd share our faith the same way. And there's one way to share that Good News that is more effective than any other. If you'd like to support the ministry of Access Church, you can do so by visiting us at ...

#153 Why You Matter In God's Mission (Originally Recorded 9/17/23) 17.10.2023

From the series: We Get To Do This We all want to have purpose. And lucky enough, God invites us to be a part of His mission. But why do so few of us view it as an opportunity? If you'd like to support the ministry of Access Church, you can do so by visiting us at  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.accesschurch.info/give⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠...

#152 Why Faith Isn't A Personal Matter (Originally Recorded 9/10/23) 17.10.2023

From the series: We Get To Do This It's very common to hear, "My faith is a personal matter." We treat our relationship with God like it's something we can manage on our own. The only problem? We can't. We need other people to help us along the way. If you'd like to support the ministry of Access Church, you can do so by visiting us at  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠...

#151 Why Church Is Necessary For Spiritual Growth (Originally Recorded 9/3/23) 17.10.2023

From the series: We Get To Do This Most people in our country today don't attend a church at all. Most Christians in our country don't attend regularly either. It's become very common to dismiss the importance of attending church services regularly. But it's not very wise. If you'd like to support the ministry of Access Church, you can do so by visiting us at  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠...

#150 Making The Most Of Your Opportunities, Colossians 4 (Originally Recorded 8/27/23) 17.10.2023

From the series: Colossians As Paul wraps up his letter to the Colossians, he gives them one final instruction. And this one instruction is the single most important thing for Christians to understand.

#149 How Christians Should Behave, Colossians 3 (Originally Recorded 8/20/23) 17.10.2023

From the series: Colossians There's seemingly a lot of rules and behaviors for Christians in the Bible. But why should we follow them? And even more importantly, how can we learn to live differently?

#148 Jesus + Nothing = Everything, Colossians 2 (Originally Recorded 8/13/23) 17.10.2023

From the series: Colossians Christianity is different than any other religion or belief system. Jesus' sacrifice on the cross was totally sufficient to cover all sin. But yet, we all have a tendency to drift from this simple truth. If you'd like to support the ministry of Access Church, you can do so by visiting us at  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠...

#147 How To Be Right With God, Colossians 1 (Originally Recorded 8/6/23) 17.10.2023

#146 We Need Someone Else To Be In Charge (Originally Recorded 7/30/23) 17.10.2023

From the series: Suburban Sins Most of us want to do what we want, when we want, how we want. But unfortunately, when you look at culture, we end up suffering because of it. So what's the alternative? Maybe we should let someone else take the keys and drive. If you'd like to support the ministry of Access Church, you can do so by visiting us at  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠...

#145 Stop Consuming, Start Contributing (Originally Recorded 7/23/23) 17.10.2023

From the series: Suburban Sins We live in a consumer-driven culture. Everything from entertainment to restaurants to shopping is all centered around our ease and enjoyment. So naturally, that's the same sort of mindset we bring into our faith. But that's not what God had in mind for his followers.
