Billings Vineyard Church Sunday Sermons

Jesus is the true vine—our only real source of life. False vines promise control and comfort but lead to emptiness. Abiding in Him means letting go of these illusions and surrendering to God’s pruning, which shapes us for true life (Hebrews 12:11–12, Isaiah 64:8). This isn’t a threat of exclusion, but an invitation to real, lasting joy (Psalm 46). What would change if Jesus was not just your help...

This sermon from Pastor Adam Greenwell explores Moses’ moment of calling in the wilderness and the revelation of God's name: Yahweh. Through Scripture—from Exodus to John and Hebrews—we see God's unchanging character, His promises fulfilled in Jesus, and His ongoing mission to gather His people. It's an invitation to trust the Shepherd who leads, sacrifices, and restores.

On Pentecost Sunday, Pastor Adam Greenwell unpacks the powerful moment when God poured out His Spirit on ordinary people—just as prophesied by Joel centuries before. This wasn’t just an event—it was a divine movement, a pivotal moment in God’s plan. Pastor Adam reminds us that Pentecost marks the handoff: Jesus ascends, and the Spirit descends, bringing with Him boldness to speak, courage to stand...

This week, Pastor Adam looks at John 11:1–26. These verses highlight how Jesus reveals His identity and power through tragedy. When Lazarus died, Jesus demonstrated that His timing is purposeful, even when it may seem delayed. His delay wasn’t neglect but a lesson in trust. Eternal life isn’t something we earn—it’s found in receiving Jesus. Sin separates us from God, but Jesus, the Resurrection an...

In Door of the Sheep, Pastor Adam Greenwell reflects on Jesus’ words in John 10:1–10: “I am the Gate.” This message explores who the "sheep" truly are—not everyone by default, but those who choose to walk with Jesus. Drawing on the humble role of shepherds and the nature of sheep, Greenwell illustrates our deep need for guidance, protection, and purpose. Just as a shepherd becomes the gate for his...

In this powerful and honest message, Adam unpacks what it truly means to trust God and walk in His light. Drawing from passages like Romans 12:1-2, John 8:1-20, and Isaiah 43:1-4, he walks us through the four foundational levels of trust: Care, Sincerity, Reliability, and Competence—and how God fulfills each of them perfectly. Through the lens of Scripture, we learn that Jesus is the Light of the...

In John 6:14–52, Jesus declares Himself the Bread of Life—our true source of nourishment. Just as bread isn’t complete until it’s been through the fire, our lives are shaped and strengthened through God’s refining process. He sees every need, every longing, and brings all the pieces together in His perfect way. When we partake in Jesus, He becomes part of us—fueling our actions, shaping our desire...

In this moving sermon, Adam Greenwell asks the powerful question: What now?—after witnessing how far Jesus is willing to go to save the lost, as shown in the Gospel of Luke. The message begins with a reflective welcome and prayer by Father Thomas Keating, setting a sacred tone for deep spiritual challenge and encouragement. Adam unpacks the fear many feel in giving God complete control, reminding...

This message invites us to name our fears and confront our misconceptions about God. We’re reminded that God's love is not earned—it’s freely given. From the beginning, God saved us before any rules were in place. Jesus shattered expectations by loving the broken, the sick, and the poor, not just the religious elite. He brings peace into our chaos, anxiety, and trauma. Just as He appeared to Peter...

These words were spoken at the empty tomb—and they still speak to us today. In a world that teaches us to earn love, God reminds us that His love is freely given. We don’t have to fight for a relationship with Him—it’s already ours. From Genesis to the Resurrection, we see a story of freedom lost and restored. Adam and Eve were once unashamed before God, but sin brought fear and hiding. Jesus’ dea...

In this powerful Palm Sunday message by Adam Greenwell, we're challenged to examine the depth of our relationship with Christ. Are we seeking a God who simply meets our needs, or are we willing to surrender fully to His will and glory? The sermon unpacks how laziness in our walk with God diminishes true relationship, reducing our faith to empty religion. Reflecting Luke 9, we're reminded that Jesu...

Today, Adam speaks about the difference between simply receiving God’s blessings and truly engaging with His grace. Jesus ' actions tended to offend people because to them He didn't move in the right time, right way, or right place, and it was usually toward the “wrong” people. His forgiveness wasn’t about the sin—it was about the heart of the forgiver. Gratitude isn’t automatic. It’s a choice tha...

Just as a dumpster fire can't put itself out, we cannot save ourselves--only God can. Luke 15 reveals how God sees the lost and the lengths He goes to bring them home. Today, Adam focuses on the Prodigal Son. Though he knew his father, he still chose to leave, causing deep pain. Yet, the father never stopped loving him. Join us as we explore this powerful story and God's relentless love for us all...

Adam Greenwell unpacks Luke 13: 10-17, where Jesus heals a woman bound by infirmity for 18 years. Through this story, Jesus reveals what His church should look like--a place of healing, grace, and transformation. Life can get messy, weighing us down, but Jesus shows us how to navigate these struggles with compassion and truth. Adam emphasizes that grace is transformative in relationships, yet we o...

From the very beginning, God created light as a reflection of His presence, and believers are called to shine that light. We are fragile vessels, but Christ protects us, allowing His light to shine even through brokenness. Darkness exists not because God is absent but because people and systems choose it. Our mission is to be the light, standing against evil and bringing hope. Key Scripture: Luke...

This week in the Luke series, Adam dives into Luke 10 and the story of the Good Samaritan. Adam points out that our behavior shouldn't just be about following rules--it should come from a transformed heart and a longing to have a relationship with Christ. In this story, we can unpack what it truly means to love our neighbor and define what "our neighbor" truly is. Jesus didn't just preach reconcil...

In Luke 9, Jesus leads His disciples to places that challenge their faith, shaping them for greater trust and obedience. Through moments like the Transfiguration, He reveals His divine nature and the specific ways He teaches us. Join Pastor Brad Hudson as we explore how Jesus grows our faith through challenges and revelations. Don't miss this powerful message!

This week, Adam explores the powerful message of knowing what being saved truly means. Some people don't even realize they're lost, while others know they are lost but don't understand just how deep their separation from God is. We often try to be a part of God's Story without fully grasping His story. When we realize how much we've been forgiven, it leads us to a deeper love and greater gratitude...

This week, Casper, Wyoming's Vineyard Pastor Walt Hill blessed us with a sermon. He talks about how our disappointment in others leads to disappointment that they didn't meet our unexpressed expectations. The same goes with God. We expect Him to work in our lives a certain way and then are disappointed with Him when it isn't what we expected. However, John questioned Jesus and Jesus still stood up...

This week, Adam discusses how worthiness comes from allowing God to seek and save us. This is a backward way that no human king would choose, but this is what makes God different. God is not a king who demands proof of worthiness. He is a King who seeks the lost to reconcile them to God's glory. We grow trust in God by allowing Him to seek and save us.

This week, Adam discusses spiritual warfare. Jesus gives us the best examples of how to respond to the devil when he tempts us. Jesus was tempted in every way that we are, and He was not at all tempted. Jesus knew who God is and the promises that He had made.

This week, Adam continues through the Luke series in Luke 3: 1-14. He discusses that Jesus came to seek and save all who are lost. God will come to chase us from our slavery, and slavery does not always mean hardships but also being stuck in comfortable places. Jesus teaches us to have freedom in the fire rather than being cozy in everyday life.

Adam Greenwell preaches on The weird week that is in-between Christmas and New Year's. Some refer to it as "Feral Week" as we are stuck between the hope, peace, joy, and love that Advent brings and the new year's resolutions. Adam asks a thought-provoking question; "Who is orchestrating your life going into 2025?" Coming out of Advent and into the new year, how will you answer this question?

Brad Hudson discusses the importance of love. We aren't geared to receive and love in the way that we are meant to. We get hurt and wounded, but knowing Jesus and God's true meaning and foundation for love, it is something we must practice and learn.

Brad Hudson discusses the importance of the true meaning of Joy. It is not fleeting; it is sound and secure in the sanctity of Christ and his promises to us.
