When the lame man called out to Peter and John for money, he didn't realize that his life was about to be changed. This miraculous healing story reveals what happens when we operate in the power of the Spirit and in obedience to Christ.

At times in life we are faced with feeling like we've lost something. When we look at our lives, it seems like we are a shell of who we were. Maybe this year has taken something out of you and left you wondering, “where did that other version of me go”? In today's sermon we look at the Bible and how it helps us overcome the longing to get back who we once were.

Giving and generosity are important principles in the Christian life. It's not giving to "get", but rather, giving to sow into the Kingdom of God. In this sermon from week 2 of our "It's a Wonderful Life" series, we look at the power of generosity in the Church. We may never know the impact of our giving, but we can trust that God will multiply everything with give to...

One of the most challenging things in life is managing our own expectations. How we approach these expectations can often leave us in disappointment. In the Bible though, we find hope beyond the unmet expectations we have, which leads us to discover how truly wonderful life is.

Often in the church we create conflict between faith/grace and works . Today we look at the New Testament to help us understand the dynamic between our faith and our works. These two aspects of our christian walk reveal the true nature of our heart for Christ, and they prompt us into action for the Kingdom.

It's that part of our Ephesians Series as we talk about the final aspect of the Armor of God. What is the "Sword of the Spirit," and how does it help us? This piece of the armor is integral to our spiritual walk as we defend ourselves against the attacks of the enemy. With the full Armor of God, you'll be ready to face any attack and have victory each day. 

In one passage in the Old Testament, God is given a name that isn't found anywhere else in the Bible. When it feels like everything is going wrong in our lives and we question what God is doing, it's this name that reminds us of who He is. Where did the name originate? From Abraham's other wife, Hagar.

In 2 Samuel, King David is at the end of his life when he writes down his last words in a song. He ends his life as a worshipper and a pursuer of God. The lesson of David's life teaches us how worship should mark our own lives, and our dedication to Christ.

All of us face fear, but understanding the different areas fear affects us can be integral to finding freedom. As we conclude our series on Fear, we look at Seven Battlefields of Fear. We need to expose fear for what it truly is in order to find freedom and healing in Christ.

When we're faced with fear, especially as it pertains to trusting God, we have a few options. We can either give in to fear, we can try to handle it ourselves, or we can trust God with the unknown and move forward. Today we talk about living in the unknown while still operating in faith in what God has spoken to us. We may not know the outcome, but God is with us every step of the way.

It's important for every believer to host the presence of the Lord in their lives. What does that look like? We can look at scripture to help us understand how to host the Lord. In Genesis, Abraham is sitting by his tent when the Lord visits him, and his response can teach us how to be hospitable to the Lord.

Last week we gained a biblical understanding of the fear of the Lord. Today we look at an unhealthy version of fear that's embedded in our emotions. The enemy prowls, attempting to destroy us in any way possible. In this sermon we learn how to combat fear so it no long controls us, and so it loses any power to derail what God has planned for us.

As we continue our Midweek series on Ephesians, we look at another aspect of the Armor of God. Its something that protects us from attack, and helps us protect others as well. It's the shield of faith. In this message you'll learn how to use faith effectively in your daily life.

There are two types of fear in the Bible, one good and one bad. Today we focus on the good type of fear. It's a fear that, if we get it right, can help us have victory over the emotions of fear that try to control us. The fear we're talking about today? The fear of the Lord.

Over the course of American history, there have been movement's of God that have defined a generation. Part of being citizens of the Kingdom of God as well as earth includes us doing our part to 'turn the world upside down' for Christ. We are called to share the Gospel with everyone and let them know that there is a God in heaven who loves them. When we do that, we will see God move...

Having the right posture before God can position us for His favor in our lives. Even so, there is one thing that can place us in a position of correction and humbling. It's the issue of Pride. We deal with it more than we think, and today we look at the Bible to help us eradicate it from our lives.

As followers of Christ, we have all been given the right to become children of God. Yet, even in the freedom we have in Christ, there's something that can block us from growth and stifle our effectiveness. How can we stop this from happening? We need to dig out the root of things that can derail us. Here's how to keep from developing spiritual blockage.
