Christ Community Sermons

Self-control is.... In the final sermon of the fruit of the Spirit series, Central Care Pastor Megan Clunan teaches on rebelling against an age of indulgence.

The fruit of the Spirit summer study continues with a look at gentleness in an age of outrage with guest teacher Bryan Loritts, teaching pastor at The Summit Church and award-winning author of ten books.

Faithfulness is a fruit of the spirit that stands out in a culture of restlessness. Pastor David Hausknecht looks at 2 Timothy to study this trait in the soldier, the athlete, and the farmer.

Pastor Eric continues the 9-part series, Fruitful People in a Thorny World, looking at what it means to embody goodness in an age of cynicism. What is a good person?

Pastor Jim turns to the story of Ruth and Boaz to study kindness in an age of self-absorption.

Pastor Clayton continues the study of the fruit of the Holy Spirt as rebellion against the status quo. This week's topic: Patience in an Age of Urgency.

The world is angry, anxious, divided, and loud, and it’s easy to get swept up in the chaos. How do we find peace in an age of anxiety?

Pastor Jim continues the look at the fruit of the Spirit as a countercultural way to live as he teaches on joy in an age of discontentment.

The world is angry, anxious, divided, and loud, and it’s easy to get swept up in the chaos. But what if love, joy, and peace aren’t soft virtues—they’re a rebellion against the status quo? These aren’t just nice traits. They’re how we push back against a world gone sideways.

Pastor Clayton turns to Philippians 4 to conclude the "Margin" series by teaching on taking control of what gets your attention and fixing it on genuine and quality things.

Shallow relationships have become our new normal. What if God’s way offers something better? How do we make room for genuine relationships?

Pastor Jim teaches on what the Bible has to say about finding margin in our lives–with respect to our money.

You weren’t made to live maxed out. But packed calendars, shallow relationships, and scattered thoughts have become our new normal. What if God’s way offers something better—space to breathe, give, connect, and think clearly?

If the Christ wasn't raised, none of this matters. If Christ was raised, everything changes!

The cross upends the idea that God only loves those who deserve it, because Jesus died for his enemies.

Pastor Clayton teaches that the cross turns marriage on its head by basing the husband-wife relationship on Jesus' self-giving love for the church.

Pastor Jim teaches on how the cross redefines who we are--not based on what we do but what Christ did.

Pastor Eric teaches how the cross unites people the world says should be enemies.

The cross proves that God is for you--even when suffering suggests he’s not. On the cross, God gave you his very best: Jesus.

Pastor Jim Nicodem teaches on how the cross transforms power into something to be used to serve others, not yourself.

The cross looks foolish to the world, but to those God calls, it is divine wisdom. The cross is either complete nonsense or the key to everything.

For International Impact Weekend, we've prepared a special mini-documentary about Christ Community's ministry partner in Brazil. Take a deep dive into the ministry we are doing there through an amazing story that God has been writing of sharing the Good News with unreached people groups in the Amazon.

Pastor Eric concludes the Kingdom of the Underdogs series by studying 2 Samuel 7. When David wants to do something great for God, God tells David that he intends to do something great for him--a promise that leads to Jesus.

The Kingdom of the Underdogs teaching series continues into the book of 2 Samuel. Pastor Clayton teaches that King Jesus' table is gracious and inclusive by studying the story of King David welcoming Mephibosheth.

Pastor Clayton turns to a curious 1 Samuel story about a battle where half the army was too tired to fight. We'll see that in God's kingdom, victory is shared equally between those those who did the most and those who did the least.
