Psalms 13:1-13:6 | All of us have doubts. No matter who we are or what we believe we all encounter doubt. So what we need to learn first of all is how to handle those doubts when they come. Psalm 13 is a great reminder to run toward God in our doubt, not away from Him.

John 11:1-11:44 | The account of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead gives us significant insight into the nature of suffering and how Christianity uniquely addresses the pain we experience in this world.

Psalms 13:1-13:6 | The Christian faith is not a matter of words, but of action. Faith without works is dead. The best way to express faith is by meeting the needs of others, thereby fulfilling the greatest of God's commands: Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.

Psalms 13:1-13:6 | We are beginning our Doubt series by learning to lament. One sermon on each topic is not going to perfectly satisfy your doubt. Therefore, we want to equip you with biblical payer language so that you can bring your concerns to Jesus most of all.

Luke 10:25-10:37 | The Christian faith is not a matter of words, but of action. Faith without works is dead.

Isaiah 52:7-52:12 | What is our response when we get good news? We celebrate and we tell others about what has happened. In the same way, when we get the greatest news our response should be same. Rejoice because of what God has done for us in Jesus and tell others about it!

Joshua 22:1-22:5 | As we celebrate our new season of ministry this weekend, it's important to pause and reflect on the ?"why" we do what we do: we love because God first loved us. But it's also helpful to reflect on the ?"how" we accomplish it, and that's by clinging to God and practicing certain habits: loving Him, listening to and obeying Him, and serving Him.

Philippians 4:10-4:23 | Paul consistently exhorts the church to follow his example of Gospel faithfulness. He famously told the Corinthian church to imitate him as he imitated Christ and places the same charge on the Philippian church.

1 John 1:1-1:4 | It is the miracles and exciting nature of God that draws people into a relationship. But it is the everyday activities of discipleship and fellowship that help the church grow and multiply into what God intended. On mission, we are being called into fellowship with one another here and now, but more importantly into fellowship with God for all time.

Philippians 4:10-4:23 | We face discontentment and danger on all sides, whether from sickness, health, poverty, or wealth.

Through seeking Christ and his strength we are set free from our circumstances to find joy and to love and serve others.

Philippians 4:8-4:9 | Few would argue that our actions flow out of our thoughts. In this passage, the Apostle Paul identifies how the thoughts we choose to dwell on impact our enjoying the God of Peace.

Philippians 4:8-4:9 | What thoughts or ideas fill your mind on a daily basis? Do they point you towards God or distract from him? The Apostle Paul challenges to think and consequently act in a way that draws us nearer to our Lord.

Philippians 4:8-4:9 | Peace. Many think this means just the absence of war or violence, but God's peace goes far deeper than that. Paul wants nothing more for his beloved church in Philippi to experience it. In fact, in this week's passage, he tells them it's within their reach.

Philippians 4:2-4:7 | Our culture is currently facing an anxiety epidemic. As Christians, we are not immune. How does God's word help us face anxiety and depression and cultivate joy and peace in Jesus? In Philippians 4:1-7 Paul helps us answer this question.

Philippians 4:2-4:7 | It seems that there is so much to be anxious for in life. Work brings anxiety. Life choices bring anxiety. Family brings anxiety. The world is full of anxiety. Yet the scriptures show us how to overcome and defeat anxiety. Paul shows us the path forward as we live by faith.

Philippians 3:12-4:1 | The Christian life is a path of discipleship that can, at times, be difficult. So, in our walk with Jesus, we need to, as the Apostle Paul put it, ?"press on". And to ?"keep on pressing on" requires a proper perspective of our past, the present, and also our future.

Philippians 3:12-3:21 | Most athletes have to compete knowing that all their work might be for nothing. They can train for years and never even make it on the podium, let alone actually win the top prize. However, the Christian life comes with a promise, that for those who seek after the prize, they will receive it. Therefore Paul encourages the believers to strain forward in their spiritual race...

Philippians 3:12-4:1 | Are we there yet? This is a common cry for many things. Road trips. Life circumstances such as starting/finishing school or a career or a relationship. This even goes for heaven. Yet, we can get distracted by all sorts of things. Paul is back this week encouraging his readers to keep going, to finish well.

Philippians 3:1-3:11 | Even if righteousness before God depended on the standards we hold ourselves to, we would all be condemned by that standard. We all fall short. So where should our confidence lie? This text (and many others in the Bible) tells us that our confidence should rest in Jesus alone.

Philippians 3:1-3:11 | We all need reminders from time to time. It is easy to forget what we once knew and so we need people to remind us. Paul does exactly that, he reminds the church in Philippi about the message of the Gospel and it is a reminder all of us need to hear.
