When it comes to freedom the question we all have is, If I am saved and belong to Jesus, why do I still struggle with sin? The truth is, we all struggle, but we can have victory over our flesh. We will never live in freedom over sin, if we do not walk and choose a mindset that comes from the Spirit. Paul tells us, we must consider ourselves dead to sin and alive to Christ, but he never said there...

In week one of our sermon series on freedom, Ps. Lukas helps us understand despite being saved and made new in Christ we are still learning to be set free in our body, mind and soul. Even the apostle Paul struggled in his battle with his earthly flesh but if we want to fully live in the freedom and life that Jesus has for us, we need to learn and fight for our freedom in Christ and it all starts w...

It’s Christmas Sunday and as we wrap up our series on advent we conclude our series talking about the most powerful aspect of any christians life, the love of Christ. It’s hard to fully understand and grasp just how incredible the love of God is. The Christmas story is almost lost on us, and we’ve heard it so many times we almost forget the truth, that God himself came in the form of a baby to be...

"I got joy joy joy joy down in my heart… down in my heart… down in my heart…” Come on, we’ve all sang it, we’ve all heard it, the question is, do I? Do we? It seems as though our weary world struggles to rejoice in the time and day we live in. The beauty of Christmas is that upon Jesus’ arrival we now all have a reason to sing, a reason to rejoice, The messiah has come! We should be rejoice! We tr...

Why is peace SO hard to have? Are we living in some sort of continual paradox? Striving so hard to find simplicity. Pushing through the chaos to find peace? Why does it feel like as soon as we have it leaves? The reality is, if our peace is predicated on our ability, our power, our control, peace will always be hard to grasp. The Prince of Peace comes to us, and gives us a way to have peace and ma...

Every year Christmas comes and every year our emotions go on a massive roller coaster. Excited for the season but overwhelmed with the to-do list, ready for joy and laughter but bogged down with perfection. Trying to strike the balance between enjoying the Christmas season and the chaos of materialism and busyness. The truth is, God sent his son to be with us, Jesus came into a time that was heavy...

At some point, we can no longer let our suffering define us, or dictate our future. It’s not easy or simple, and it takes a lot of leaning into the Holy Spirit. Yet the truth still remains, our pain can have purpose, we can grow and learn from our suffering. At the end of the day, we can have hope again, but it may take something on our part, something we have received and something God calls us t...

Every one of us will walk through hardship, and even though grief and pain has a mind of its own, by God’s grace we can walk a righteous path amidst the suffering and see God move us from trial to triumph. God is the author of life and gets to finish every single person’s story, we must trust him and watch God move in our pain and learn to truly suffer well in His eyes, so we can leave the door op...

We kickoff our series on suffering tackling the hardest most asked question on the topic, “why does God allow suffering in the world?” Ps. Lukas tackles this question both theologically and philosophically helping us see that as we look at every worldview the only one with an answer that brings comfort, healing, hope and restoration is the Christian worldview. The truth is this, God has a master p...

Our final sermon in our homecoming series carries our heart to be a church that always creates space for the next generation to hear and learn about Jesus. There is no Jr. Holy Spirit, God has come to redeem and kick-start revival not just in the older generation but in all of us. We need each other, every demographic, every generation and our heart to is to care and cultivate a culture that bless...

It’s Baptism Sunday! There is nothing better than the good news of Jesus, reaching, healing and bringing salvation to those who are desperate for a real tangible encounter from Jesus.

What does it mean to be radically generous? Is it purely financial? Is it giving beyond our means? In this sermon Ps. Lukas breaks down a well-known verse that is just as much about loyalty to the kingdom as it is about where your money goes. In this message you will also hear a heartfelt update on the growth of our church, the vision of where we are headed and how we can all be radically generous...

The Church was never meant to be something to just come and consume. WE are the church; WE are the body of Christ. A homecoming means every person, and every part of the body plays its part, but our part isn’t bigger than what we are a part of. In this sermon Ps. Lukas challenges us to become contributors and champions to God’s mission and God’s church, because the vision He has for us will take e...

A strong reality that many Christians don’t realize is you can be saved and yet not free. God can redeem your soul and yet your mind and body can still be slaves. Ps. Lukas breaks down what it looks like to trust God and experience freedom from the past, the flesh and the enemy. WE can live FREE with a future... or we can live as slaves to the past.

At Elim Church, we exist to be a life-giving community taking steps on the journey to be more like Jesus. Yet, we can’t take steps to be more like Jesus without first an encounter with Jesus himself. The truth is, one simple encounter, can heal your body, transform your mind, redeem your identity and save your soul. So, what are you waiting for?

Homecoming Sunday is here, and we are excited to be together after an incredible summer. Homecoming is not just about school starting, pumpkin spice latte’s and coming back to church because it’s the fall. We are preaching and believing for a spiritual homecoming, a return to healing, hope and back to life-giving community.
