Pastor Bruce Garner // JAMES AND THE SOVEREIGNTY OF GOD We live in anxious days. Please read James 4 before we gather for worship on Sunday. James has a strong, comforting message about the sovereignty of God that I look forward to sharing with you this weekend! Logo: The Village Church

Pastor Bruce Garner // WHAT’S THE PROBLEM?!? That is what James is going to teach us next! Read James chapter 4 and come EXPECTING to be changed by God’s grace! Logo and pre sermon video: The Village Church

Pastor John Vo // WE’RE RICH WITH INFORMATION BUT DYING FOR WISDOM As we continue our journey through the epistle of James, we will come to what I consider one of the most important sections in the book. Never in my lifetime has the need for godly wisdom been more evident in the lives of everyday people. Every one of us needs the “wisdom from above.” Read James chapter 3 and ask God to open your e...

Pastor Bruce Garner // Ever wish life had a rewind? I certainly have! If life had some science fiction-worthy rewind button, I would probably use it mostly about things I say. As we continue our journey through the epistle of James, James has a warning and some wisdom for talkers and teachers. Read James chapter 3 before we gather for worship this Sunday. I am really looking forward to sharing thi...

Pastor Cecil Maxey // James 2:14-26

Pastor Bruce Garner // Love Doesn't Play Favorites As we continue our study this Sunday, I’’ll share with you what James said about love and playing favorites. It’s timely and practical and it exalts Jesus. Keep reading James, and focus on chapter 2 this weekend. Logo: The Village Church

Pastor Bruce Garner // GOING THROUGH A TOUGH TIME? On Sunday, we begin our journey through the book of James. It is one of the most beloved books in the Bible, and for good reason. It’s practical, direct and filled with wisdom. James will immediately tell us how to think and how to act when we are going through trials. Did you know you can WASTE suffering? Do you know how to make the MOST of it? J...

Pastor Bruce Garner // Use Your Words

Pastor Bruce Garner // WHAT ARE WE SUPPOSED TO DO NOW? That seems to be the burning question from… well, everyone. Good news: We are NOT the first followers of Jesus who weren’t quite sure how to act in times of trouble! Our orders are actually quite clear. Read 1 Peter 2 and I look forward to sharing a portion of it with you on Sunday. Here’s a preview: *It’s countercultural. *It’s uncommon, even...

Pastor Bruce Garner // IDENTITY A story of stolen identity is in the news every week. It may be the quintessential 21st-century crime. Sunday, we will look at just a few verses in 1 Peter chapter 2 that tell us who we ARE. We never behave beyond our belief. Your identity in Christ as a disciple of Jesus is the fundamental fact about who you are, why you are here, and what you can do.

Pastor Bruce Garner // CAN I TALK TO YOU THIS SUNDAY ABOUT THE KIDS? With so many kids gone, I want to take this Sunday to talk to you about this generation and our responsibility toward them. If you’re a parent, grandparent or have young people you care about in your life, please join us this Sunday at 9:00a, 10:30a, or 5:30p. The services are identical, but 5:30p features the service only - no c...

Pastor Bruce Garner // DON’T RUIN YOUR LIFE That’s the stark warning of Proverbs as we wrap up this short summer series in the book of Proverbs. In my years of pastoring, nothing has been more shocking and heartbreaking than the sudden ruin that engulfs people’s lives when they ignore the wisdom we will read this Sunday. I hope you can join me. Young families, this is an especially vital topic for...

Pastor Bruce Garner // WISDOM OR FOLLY? As we continue our short series in Proverbs, we will hear the voice of two women echo through this amazing, practical book of the Bible. Using a literary technique your English teacher may have told you is called personification, the Bible paints a picture of two ways to live. This Sunday, two very different women are going to ask for our attention, and our...

Pastor Bruce Garner // THE WISDOM OF PROVERBS For three short weeks, we will return to the amazing book of Proverbs to hear God’s timeless wisdom, often by showing you the path of a wise man and the path of a fool. Proverbs paints the picture and invites you to choose! Want to learn wisdom every day? Read the chapter of Proverbs that goes with the day of the month!

Pastor Bruce Garner // PARENTING WITH GOD’S WISDOM The world is ever more chaotic and foolish, so we need to raise our children with all the wisdom we can find. Thankfully, God has all that we need. Sunday, we’ll be exploring a very practical section of Proverbs to gain wisdom for the journey! If you’re a parent, grandparent, or simply want to help the next generation thrive, I hope you’ll join us...

Pastor Bruce Garner // HERE COMES THE KING

Pastor Bruce Garner // Ever feel crunched for time? That may be the easiest (or possibly the dumbest) question anyone could ask you these days! Almost everyone I talk to is pressured and scrambling to “find the time” or “make the time” to “do what they need to do.” Yes, we say funny things when we talk about our precious time. (After all, who can really make it or find it?) Sunday, we will walk be...

Pastor Bruce Garner // Thanks for looking out for me! HE'S DOWN! SHOULD WE SHOOT HIM?!? There’s an old cliche that the only army that shoots its wounded is the Christian church. Like many cliches, it has some truth in it. Too many Christians have discovered that they fell into sin and no one came to help. I’ve heard too many stories of people who were wounded and abandoned. Is that the best we can...

Pastor DJ McMoil // Growing Up: Obey This Sunday, I have the honor of preaching Matthew 19-16-26 to you, helping Pastor Bruce finish his series on some fundamentals on the Christian faith. The topic will be Obey, and I think it can be a difficult one to get right as we try to apply it. On the one hand, we can recoil from the idea of God requiring our obedience; on the other, we can overestimate th...

Pastor Bruce Garner // PRAYER. Everybody talks about it, and a lot of people say they do it, too. But it can create a lot of confusion. Discouragement, even, when you seem to pray without answers. This Sunday, we will explore an incredible promise Jesus made regarding prayer. It’s not what you expect. It’s better! I hope you’ll join us and bring a friend!
