Central in Janesville - Sermon Podcast

It’s normal to feel pretty ordinary in life. The story of Mary is the story of God using the ordinary for extraordinary purposes. God wants to use you. Sometimes it just requires a little faith to see the extraordinary that maybe only God sees for you!  

In today's message, Kellen looks at the story of the Shepherds as we consider Jesus as the Light of the World.

We all do some really inappropriate and unintelligent things sometimes. Many times, we know something’s off, but still we forge ahead. But we can train ourselves to hear the voice of the Holy Spirit and to actually listen to wise instruction. That’s what today’s devotional is all about.

The second sermon of our series, The Promised One, with Campus Pastor Kellen Anderson. 

If someone asked you if you wanted to be rich or to be truly good and loving, most of us would probably at least hesitate before answering. We all would like to think we’d pick good and loving, but the way we live every day, you’d think it were the other way around. Today’s proverb talks about the desirability of having a good name rather than worldly riches.  

The first sermon of our new series, The Promised One, with Teaching Pastor Jake Clark. 

This time of the year, we actually have a holiday that is centered around us giving thanks. But, we struggle to have cheerful hearts. Why is it so difficult? Today’s proverbs gives us hope that we can find beauty even when heartache is present.

The fourth sermon in our series, Jesus Changes Everything, with Campus Pastor Kellen Anderson. 

Trust is a valuable thing, and all too often we give it over to people or to things that haven’t earned it. Sometimes we trust because that’s where we’ve placed our security, but security placed anywhere but in Jesus is bound to fail us. Today’s devotional takes a look at a man in the Old Testament who trusted one woman way too much.  

The third sermon in our series, Jesus Changes Everything, with Campus Pastor Kellen Anderson. 

Courage is a great thing, but we don’t have courage just to be a hero. Courage is God’s gift to us to help us become who he wants us to be so that this world can know him. In today’s devotional story from the Old Testament, Jonathan is a great example of that kind of courage.

The second sermon of our series, Jesus Changes Everything, with Campus Pastor Kellen Anderson. 

Hypocrisy is something we all struggle with at times. It’s easy to find the fault in others but to be blind to it in ourselves. Judah was a man in the book of Genesis who proved to be a hypocrite at least once. Let’s learn from his example in today’s devotional.

The first sermon of our new series, Jesus Changes Everything, with Campus Pastor Kellen Anderson. 

The will of God is a theological concept that is extremely difficult to reconcile. Does God will every single bad thing that happens in your life for His own reasons? Or, do bad things happen that are outside of His will? In today’s devotional we look at Proverbs to help us answer these questions.  

The eighth and final sermon of our series Central Strong with Executive Pastor Erik Henry.

Elijah is one of the greatest prophets of the Old Testament, but even his life wasn’t easy. At one point, he wanted to throw in the towel…and then God reminded him that He shows up even in the smallest ways. Life might not be easy, but never stop looking for God’s hand at work in your life. When you see him at work, it’s easier to keep running after him!

Seventh sermon of our series Central Strong with Campus Pastor Kellen Anderson.

The story of Mordecai is one of the Old Testament stories that shows us what the humility of Jesus can look like in real life situations. Let’s take a look at this story in today’s devotional and be reminded of the downfall of pride and the beauty of humility!

Sixth sermon of our series Central Strong with Campus Pastor Kellen Anderson.

Every needs someone who’s in their corner. Jesus plays that role for you better than you even know. Is there someone in your life this week that you need to advocate for and believe in even when no one else does? It’s a great way to be more like Jesus. Today’s devotional digs into the role of Jesus being our advocate.

Fifth sermon of our series Central Strong with Campus Pastor Kellen Anderson.

A young Jesus was once lost for days before being found learning from spiritual leaders at the temple. Jesus made his personal growth and learning a priority. Sometimes it’s not something we want to do or place value in, but actively desiring to learn is a Jesus-like character trait that will be a habit that pays great benefits throughout our lives. In today’s devotional, we’re taking a look at th...

Lead Pastor David Clark and Campus Pastor Kellen Anderson tag-team to bring the fourth sermon in our Central Strong series.

We live in a world with a lot of darkness, and without light shining in that darkness, our eyes begin to adjust to the darkness and we don’t see everything as quite so dark. Exposing our lives to Jesus allows him to shine light on the areas where we need work – things that we’ve maybe failed to see. Today’s devotional talks about letting Jesus shine light in our lives to bring us greater spiritual...
