Creekside Church - Messages

In part 3 of our new series we look at why God instructed Moses to build a tabernacle, how this relates to worship today, and what happens when we get worship wrong.  We pray you’re inspired to take a next step in your faith and equipped to make disciples as we continue to learn how to worship a king. 

Last week we talked about recovering our identity as priests, but you might be asking "what do priests actually do?" How do we function as priests today? We pray you’re inspired and equipped to make disciples as we continue in week two of our new series How to Worship A King. 

Throughout time the enemy of God has tried to rob the Church of scripture, worship, and our identity as priests. As we begin this brand new teaching series it is our prayer that we would recover what has been stolen and rediscover how to worship the King. 

As the Apostle Paul continues to testify about the kingdom of God there are some who believe his message and others who disbelieve. Quoting from the prophet Isaiah, Paul shows us that there is a rhythm to receiving the word of the kingdom of God. We need to see, hear, understand, be transformed, and then brought to wholeness. What is keeping you from seeing, hearing, understanding, transformation,...

When Paul enters the city of Athens the scriptures say “His spirit was provoked because he saw that the city had many idols.” Our culture today isn’t any different. Our communities are looking for what will bring them purpose, pleasure, and prosperity, but their pursuit will leave them empty and unsatisfied until it’s found in Jesus. Our prayer is that like Paul we would be moved to share the gosp...

Your identity is what defines you, your sense of worth, and what drives the decisions you make. As we continue our series in the book of Acts we find three people who have very different identities and what happens when they receive the gospel message. We pray this message inspires and equips you to go and make disciples.

In Acts chapter 12 we find the Apostle Peter imprisoned and the church eagerly praying for his release, but when God answered and delivered Peter the gathered church didn’t believe it. How might our devotion to prayer change if we came with faith and fully expected God to answer our requests? I believe we would change the world and see the kingdom of God come on earth as it is in heaven. We pray t...

The Church has been given a simple gospel so everyone can share the message! This good news is for everyone, but if you take a look at who sits at your table, your circle of influence, does it reflect Gods heart of every tribe and nation coming to know Him? Or do we only share the good news with people who look, act, and think like us? Today we continue in week 9 of our Acts of the Apostles series...

Sometimes our past makes it hard for us to believe that we could ever be right with God. You might even believe that God has given up on you or that you’re too far gone. As we continue our series walking through the book of Acts, we pray you’re inspired as we see in this epic chapter that no one is too far gone for our God to redeem. 

As the Church is scattered among different regions we find Philip in the city of Samaria. He continues to perform great signs and wonders, as well as preach the gospel message and many men and women are added to the Church. Simon the magician is one of those men that decides to follow Jesus but we soon find out that his motives aren’t pure.  Do you desire to see a move of God in your life and comm...

The word of God continued to increase and the disciples multiplied greatly but... with great work, and great power, comes great opposition.  We pray you're inspired and equipped as we continue in week 5 of our Acts of the Apostles series.

As the disciples continued to grow in number certain parts of the ministry were being neglected. There were widows that weren’t being taken care of… The church was growing but with growth comes problems, but problems can also become opportunities. We pray you’re inspired and equipped as we continue in week 4 of our Acts of the Apostles series. 

In Acts 4 we find the Apostles continuing to testify about the resurrection of Jesus and the church continuing to grow. People in the church are selling their possessions to provide for the needs of the community and the Holy Spirit is bringing about supernatural unity among all the followers of Jesus. Then the story takes an unexpected turn in chapter 5 when we’re introduced to Ananias and Sapphi...

After Pentecost the movement of Christianity began to spread like wild fire. All of a sudden ordinary, uneducated men are speaking with authority and performing miracles. They’re getting threats from the religious leaders and facing persecution if they continue to speak about Jesus. What made them so bold, and what is it that gives us authority today? Is it our race, gender, education, etc…? We pr...

After the ascension of Christ the apostles are told to wait for the promised Holy Spirit. At Pentecost the Holy Spirit does come just as Jesus promised and empowers the apostles and early church to expand the Jesus movement. Timid followers are all of a sudden filled with boldness as they begin to preach the gospel, and many receive Jesus as their Lord and Savior. In this new series we will be loo...

This is Creekside's 1 Year Anniversary! We are so thankful for all that God has done in such a short period of time and we truly believe the best is yet to come!  This week we close out our Let's Go series as we look at the story of Peter leaving his job as a fisherman to follow Jesus, and the blessings that come through obedience. We pray you'll be inspired as you listen to this me...

One of our core values at Creekside Church is generosity. We believe that when we are generous we become more like Jesus, and we're able to do more to radically love our community. We pray you're inspired and challenged to take a next step in your faith as you listen to week 5 of our Let's Go series. 

At Creekside Church we want to lay a foundation through the scriptures of what it looks like to follow Jesus. We believe that with following Jesus comes great gain, but there's also a cost to consider. Jesus didn't shy away from tough topics and He was very upfront with people about the reality of sacrifice and suffering. We pray that you'll be inspired, and challenged to take a nex...

The goal throughout this series was to share our vision, mission and strategy while also weaving in our values. Our values are the core motivators that drive what we do! This week we're going to look at our value of obedience. What does biblical obedience look like, and what would it look like if every person took that step to walk in obedience everyday? We pray you're inspired as we con...

Our mission at Creekside Church is to radically love and simply equip disciple makers. In order to accomplish we need to be healthy, and at Creekside when we talk about health we mean it from a wholistic point of view (spiritual, physical, emotional, mental, and relational).  Jesus told us to love our neighbors as ourselves, but if we don't love ourselves then what does love for our neighbor...

A.W. Tozer once said "What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us." So what is it that comes to your mind? At Creekside we believe that understanding the gospel, (who Jesus is and what He has done for us) should lead us to be in awe and wonder of Him. This is where worship begins and it has major effects on how we live and the decisions we make....

Even though the world is full of chaos and distractions we still have a purpose and a mission.  Jesus is still King!  Now more than ever the Church has to rise up and work together!  If we’re going to Radically love God and His people then we need to pray and ask the Holy Spirit to unite us and empower us to do our part!  Unity in motion is powerful, so Let’s Go!

As we close out our series on the Holy Spirit we are honored to have our friend Damian Boyd walk us through Galatians 5:13-26 .

In week 3 of our Holy Spirit series we look at some disciplines we can practice in order to cultivate a healthy relationship with Jesus. These practices are known in the church as spiritual disciplines.

This is week two of our teaching series on the Holy Spirit, and we're covering the gifts of tongues and prophecy. What are the gifts of tongues and prophecy? Are they still used today and what is their purpose? We pray this message inspires you and helps you to grow in your faith.
