Faithbrook Church Messages

We all wish that life were easy and that nothing would ever go wrong, but that's just not life. This happen out of our control and there is often pain and suffering that we have to deal with. Let's listen to what Paul has to say about faith and suffering.

As we continue in Romans 8, Pastor Eric talks about what our identity in Christ looks like. So often we are deceived into thinking that worldly identities are what give us freedom.

This week we step back to the beginning of Romans 8 and talk about freedom and grace. So often we live in various forms of condemnation, but Christ's death and resurrection changed everything in the best way.

In Paul's letter to the church in Rome, he writes some really powerful instructions that are full of wisdom and truth. It just so happens that chapter 8 in this letter is packed with just about everything you need to live a full life in Christ. Let's check it out!

Christmas Eve is a special time to remember how Jesus put aside his heavenly glory to be born in a humble manger. Praise God that Jesus came to be the hope for all people!

While Kevin is home alone, he's constantly at war with a couple of thieves that want to break in and steal from his family's home. Kevin has to fend off these attacks, much like how we have to fend of the schemes of our spiritual enemy.

Following the Kids Christmas Worship program, Pastor Jim takes a look at the relationship between Kevin and Marley in the movie: Home Alone. It's important that we don't let our judgements get in the way of God's blessings.

At first, Kevin was thrilled that his wish came true. He was free to do whatever he wanted with no parents or siblings to get in the way. But soon he began to realize that total freedom wasn't all that it was cracked up to be.

In all of the chaos of their big family trip, the McCallister family accidentally left Kevin behind - home alone. During the Christmas season, we have a tendency to get busy and distracted and sometimes we even forget the most important part of Christmas.

In the final week of this powerful series, we look at the powerful impact that Stephen had, even in his lowest valley. Life is full of mountain tops and valleys, but God has a plan for both.

Many signs and wonders were seen in the early church, but is God done with miracles? Pastor Peggy dives into the topic of miracles and what it means for Christians today.

As the church began to grow in size, it began to face opposition from all over. It took increasing boldness to spread the message of Jesus and they knew something that can help us live bold.

Jesus calls his followers to see and engage the needs of the world, but it will take more that what we have. If we want to see and engage needs, we need the power and promptings of the Holy Spirit to lead and guide us.

God made you for more, but staying in the more isn't always easy. This week we look at the characteristics of the early church and how they lived in the more.

For many Christians, we get stuck in a battle of control and we forget that Jesus has more to offer. As we jump into the book of Acts, Pastor Jim uses 3 chairs to explain how we were made for more!

Many of us have no idea where all of our money is actually going and that uncertainty can lead to a lot of tension, a lot of stress, and very little generosity. What if your money could bring you joy, but not in the way you’re thinking?

Work is such a big part of life, but sometimes work can overtake our lives. We have to seek out that mythical work-life balance and God want to help us find it!

We live in a pretty chaotic world and there are many factors that are out of our control. It can be so overwhelming if we don't have the right perspective.

If you have kids, you know that parenting can be very overwhelming. You love your kids so much, but that doesn't make it easy. You won't always get it right, but God wants to help you be a better parent.

Fall Kickoff is always an amazing event at Faithbrook and this year we kicked off a series called Overwhelm. Life can be so difficult and chaotic to manage, but God wants to help you overcome the overwhelm.

Everyone needs and benefits from community. The church is a great community, but it's easy to fade into the crowd and miss the blessing of deeper connection. This week, Pastor Jim talks about the benefit of finding your people.

Have you ever sat through the credits after a movie and see how many people it takes to make a movie happen? God’s church is not that different. It’s not always convenient, but God has designed His people to be contributors to the mission that He has given to the local church.

It’s one thing to know the Gospel, but it’s another thing to live it out. For the first week of this series, we take a deeper look at how we can live out the great commission by finding our ONE.

As we conclude this Summer series, we hear from Pastor Peggy about the power and potential of our words. Many passages in Proverbs references the responsibility we have to control what we say.

This week's dive into the book of Proverbs focuses on the topic of anger. Anger isn't a bad thing, but it takes godly wisdom to mange it well and harness it for good.
