Canyon Creek Church Sermons

God’s word is central to the Christian faith. It guides us toward salvation but more than this it guides us to glorify God in any situation. Paul is thankful that the church in Thessalonica has responded to God’s Word and persevered through their trials.

Paul is thankful because the church in Thessalonica shepherd's one another with boldness and gentleness. He encourages them to continue in this practice. At Canyon Creek we love to highlight the role of shepherd and the need to be a congregation that loves one another and lifts one another up. Join us this Sunday as we continue our sermon series by looking at 1 Thessalonians 2:1-12

God has called his church to bring the hope of the gospel to the world. Those who know Christ have been gives great gifts of faith, love, and hope. Jesus calls us to take those gifts and give them away. Join us this week as we begin a new series looking for how we can do this. We will be looking at 1 Thessalonians 1:1-10 this Sunday.

In Psalm 111:4 the poet states that God CAUSES his wondrous works to be remembered by us. First, why would God need to do that; and secondly, how does He do it? This Sunday we'll look at Psalm 111 to find the answers to these questions and it will lead us to remember our need to be Thankful people and understand that realized Gratitude has a spiritual result which is Humility. This Sunday let's jo...

We are entering a new series this week called "Giving Thanks." Our Family Ministry Director, Zakk Uhler, will be teaching from Luke 17:11-19 where Jesus heals 10 lepers. Come and join our service to look once again at the compassion of Jesus and the response He desires from His people.

The Blessing or Benediction is the end of the Christian Worship Service. God, out of his love for his children, sends us into the week filled with his blessing. This is meant to fill the Christian with the confidence that the presence of God is not only found in the worship experience but day by day as we live lives giving him glory. This Sunday we will be looking at a benediction found in Numbers...

Why do we take 25 or more minutes each Sunday to teach or preach? Why do we think that an exposition and application of God's Word is vitally important to our congregation? This Sunday we will look at one of Paul's recorded sermons from Acts 13 and see some indications pointing to why "teaching" is vital to our church.

Part 6 Prayer Matthew 6:5-15 Prayer is central to the Christian life. Many questions come with something so important: Why do we pray? How do we pray? What should we say? This Sunday we are looking at what Jesus had to say about prayer, plain and simple.

The role of music in our lives is vital. It impacts both our emotional and rational state. It captures our heart in ways other forms of communication cannot. It is also vital to give praise to the Lord through music because it opens a depth to relationship with Him. This Sunday as we learn about the role of music in worship read Psalm 95 in preparation. ​

Imagine the worst health condition happening to you and your life is at risk. Now let me ask you: Do you believe you are pardoned by God for your sin? Some, at death's door, don't even consider this question, while others think of it and are either confident or not. Some call for their minister. What is the basis for God pardoning us? Why do we at CCPC often attempt to assure ourselves of God's pa...

God calls his people to confess their sin corporately and privately. This Sunday we are in part three of our series and will be learning about the “Confession of Sin” element. This act of worship is not only important for Sunday but vital for our Christian growth. This Sunday we will explore why it is so vital and how it can make a daily impact on your life. We will be studying from Psalm 51 so pl...

This Sunday we continue in our series called "Our Intentional Worship" and focus on one more element of our worship service. Last Sunday the focus was on our "Call to Worship" and this week we will look at the "Apostles' Creed". What is the big deal about Creeds, Confessions, Statements of Faith and similar Christian Affirmations? Why would we regularly use and refer to them in word and song in ou...

Part 1 Call to Worship God calls his people into worship. This is a gift to us because worshipping God brings healing to the wounded heart. As we glorify God and rejoice in him the Spirit nourishes is through the Word and His presence. Join us as we launch into our new series on worship and examine the worship practice of “The Call to Worship”.

Jesus makes himself known through the work he does in you and me. We are jars of clay formed and shaped by Jesus to do the work upon which he calls us. As Paul finishes his final letter he reminds Timothy of this simple truth. We are called to make much of Jesus and his gospel message. Join us as we finish our series looking at 2 Timothy 4:9-22.

Our Family Ministry Director, Zakk Uhler, is continuing our series “The First of Many” this Sunday. We will be studying 2 Timothy 4:5-8 and learning about how we are called to do the work of ministry, pouring out all we are for the cause of Christ in the world. Join us as we journey through this passage together.

THE FIRST OF MANY | PART 11 Our passage this Sunday is often used in Pastoral ordination and installation services. In 2 Timothy 4:1-4 we can see Paul passing the leadership baton to his protege and charging him with the responsibility of leading a church. It won’t be easy for Timothy because there are some problems in Ephesus he will need to address. Paul has no doubt, Timothy is the one to take...

Our passage today is one of strongest claims in the Bible regarding the nature of written Scripture. These verses from 2 Timothy 3:16-17 appear in every Theology textbook because they unequivocally claim that the source of the Bible is God Himself. This Sunday we will look hard at these two verses and allow Paul to challenge our convictions about the authority of the Bible. What authority does Scr...

The Fellowship of The Church Today, more than ever, we need to be intentionally fellowshipping with one another in the church. We need to have relationships with fellow believers that draw up deeper into relationship with Christ. Paul, gives Timothy, instructions for how to lead the church to develop these types of relationships with one another. Please join us this Sunday as we continue in our se...

It can be difficult to discern between our wants and God's desires. Paul, warns Timothy, that temptations of the world can quickly shear our hearts towards ourselves and away from God. Paul teaches Timothy, and us, how to discern between the temptations of this world and the will of God. Please join us as we continue to work through the book of 2 Timothy.

It is easy to divide a congregation over petty issues. This week we will cover 2 Timothy 2:22-26 looking at how to avoid senseless arguments and bickering. Paul then guides us on how to manage conflict in a Christ-centered way. Please join us at 10 am online.

Jesus was very aware of wolves in sheep's clothing entering His flock. In our passage this Sunday, we will see that Paul too is very concerned about some people in the churches he had planted who are causing division, encouraging quarrels, and teaching lies. Their impact spreads like a poison. It's not a benign concern, it's dangerous to the faith of some. What do you do about false teachers, misg...

The Hope of the Resurrection We are in need of hope in today’s crazy world. The gospel offers us hope through the resurrection of Jesus. Join us this Sunday as we work through 2 Timothy 2:8-13 and discover the hope offered by the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Paul writes about "being ashamed" several times in his letter to Timothy. The sense of being ashamed is a powerful emotion that affects our actions and reactions. Why does Paul bring this subject up for Timothy and indirectly to us? The temptation to back away from identifying with Jesus Christ and the message of Good News has been a concern since the beginning of the Church. Listen Sunday as Mart...

Jesus has defeated the grave in order to give you life. So, do not be ashamed but instead walk boldly in Christ. The covenant of grace provides us with the purpose and grace to share the gospel message with the lost and broken world. Therefore, we can be agents of reconciliation bringing hope to the world by sharing the gospel of Christ with one another as we grow in Him. Join us this Sunday as we...
