CrossTrail Community Church: Sermon Podcast

Week 2: In this message, the lives of Abel and Enoch are highlighted as examples of how faith is the material that makes us into people who please God.

Week 1: Faith in the true God opens up the world of unseen realities and possibilities, fueling a confident hope in the future.

 It’s sometimes confusing how a believer who is passionate about Jesus should engage with the larger community in which they live. This message will give you valuable guidance in bringing your spiritual fire into the public sphere.

Week 4: When we bring a fire for Jesus into his church, beautiful things happen. The church fulfills its role to carry the hope of the world.

 Week 3 : If you feel unsatisfied and frustrated on the job, Jesus will bring new purpose and perspective to your work. Learn how to have a fire for God at work.

What does it look like to be on fire for Jesus at home, and how does he change the dynamics of the relationships there? This message by Pastor Chris will inspire and challenge you with practical insights into building a spiritual home fire.

Week 1: How hot or cold is your fire for the Lord? In this message, Pastor Chris challenges us to feed our fire in order to have a satisfying and impactful relationship with God.

Maybe the most surprising thing about God becoming flesh is that there is a sense in which he intends for us to participate in his Incarnation today. In this message Pastor Chris Workman speaks of the wonder of how Christ can be formed in you.

What can we learn from the event of Christ’s birth and the song Silent Night about how to experience peace in a chaotic world?

In Jesus, God placed himself within the confines of a human body and experienced the human condition as one of us. He understands, and he’s here to help.

The Incarnation is about how God became flesh in Jesus Christ. To become a servant to humanity, he emptied himself of his glory and self-interests, modeling the way of self-denial for us.

When a relationship is wounded or broken, once we’ve done the hard work of forgiving and asking forgiveness, the norm should be to move towards reconciliation.

Week 2: When a relationship is wounded or broken, instead of trying to fix the other person using the ineffective strategies that we typically resort to, Jesus teaches us to begin with ourselves.

Week 4: What images and feelings does calling God “Father”evoke for you? Are they positive or negative? In this message we acknowledge some of our hangups and learn to see God for the kind of Father he truly is.

Week 3: Jesus claimed to be Yahweh in the flesh, the God who comes and walks beside us to save and deliver us.

God’s personal name reveals him as the relational God who saves us and satisfies our deepest needs.

 Week1: The ancient names of God in Scripture tell us a lot about his nature and character. In this sermon, discover the power of Elohim the Almighty, the Creator, who is more than able to accomplish his good plans and before whom all are accountable.

Week 5: In a world of lonely people who don’t know Christ, the Apostle Paul gives us compelling reasons why those who belong to Jesus must be an inviting, welcoming community.

How amazing is it to be part of a community where people lovingly sacrifice for one another to meet whatever needs are present? This is the kind of generosity found in a community shaped by Jesus.

Week 3: You’ve probably noticed that life is hard and holding onto hope can be a real challenge. We all need encouragement. What would it look like to be part of a community where everyone is encouraging each other?

Week 2: In a me-first world, it’s a special community in which people selflessly serve one another. And that is what the church looks like when we model our lives on Jesus.

Week 1: As much as we need and crave community, we are so good at destroying it. Jesus has a better way to do community and invites you to experience it and to offer it to others.

Week 5: When we find ourselves in a pit, it’s hard to believe that God could find us lovable. But while we will never be perfect, we will always be perfectly loved.

Week 4: Life is hard. Almost everything worthwhile is difficult, and things happen to us along the way that bring pain and disappointment. Yet God promises that he is always working behind the scenes for our good.

Week 3- In our drive to succeed and accomplish important things, we forget that God is even more concerned with who we are becoming inwardly.
