Governor Paulus of Cyprus: This is my trusted advisor, Bar-Jesus (a Jewish sorcerer and false prophet) Paul, looking Bar-Jesus in the eye: You son of the devil, full of every sort of deceit and fraud, and enemy of all that is good! The enemy places all kinds of distractions in front of us, and we need the Holy Spirit's help to be able to look it in the eye and call it what it is. Join us for a pow...

No matter the trial we are facing, with God, all things are possible. In this sermon, we see how God can work in the middle of the worst circumstances!

In Mark 10:35 James and John asked Jesus if they could be seated in places of honor when He got his glorious throne. Jesus reminded them his Kingdom would be different and that they didn't really know what they were really asking. In Acts 12:2 we find King Herod has James killed with the sword. We find in this passage people tend to look after their own self-interest, and how the hunger for power...

Encouragement is one of the key tools God uses to grow his church. We find in Barnabas a great illustration of how to be an encourager and its impact on the recipients.

In this sermon, we see how things got flipped upside down when some of the disciples shared the gospel with everyone they met. When they went where the others wouldn't and how it gives guidance to us on what it takes to go on mission with God.

The Dance (Psalm 150) with Chris Bartley

When Peter is criticized about his encounter with Cornelius, he simply shares the story of what God had done. In this passage, at this moment, we see the power God has to transform the heart through trials and difficulties.

If there's one thing for certain about 2022, you can expect the unexpected. There are several things in our passage, Acts 10:24-48, that are 🤯 and teach us about the God of the Unexpected!

No, dear brothers and sisters, I have not achieved it, but I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead, I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us. Let all who are spiritually mature agree on these things. If you disagree on some point, I believe God will make it plain to you. B...

Hopelessness can be found in all sorts of places and circumstances: relationships, work, failures, mistakes, self. The truth is: you can’t move forward without hope. As believers, even in the midst of hopelessness, we have hope that should fuel our daily lives to pursue the great commission and great commandment. In this sermon, we see how, because of the birth of Jesus, we can be a beacon of hope...

Sin in our life does two things in our life: breaks our relationship with God and creates chaos among others and God's creation. Because of Jesus, we find hope to have peace in both of those situations.

Joy is not dependent on circumstances. This sermon is the second in our 2021 Christmas Advent Series.

In this first sermon in our 2021 Christmas Advent series, we look at love. Not only does Pastor Jared walk us through the gift of love, and what it means but he calls out the #1 enemy of love being lived out in our lives.

The story of Peter and Cornelius is all about tearing down walls. The setting is Peter by the sea hanging out with Simon the tanner when God does what everyone thought was impossible. Tearing down the walls in the community, started with tearing down walls in Peter's heart. Proving to the world then and now that Jesus came to seek and save all people.

Because Tabitha believed in Jesus, she cared. Because she cared, she saw the needs around her and made a difference. Because Tabitha made a difference, her friends had hope. Tabitha was a difference-maker, but she was not the difference-maker. When believers are present it should always make a difference. Do you see the needs around you? Are you a difference maker?

Peter told Aeneas: “Aeneas, Jesus Christ heals you! Get up, and roll up your sleeping mat!” And he was healed instantly. God does not physically heal everyone who seeks it, but He does make everyone whole spiritually who puts their faith in Jesus. Join us as we look at what happens instantly when we give our life to Jesus in this powerful sermon titled "Get Up!"

In this sermon, Pastor Jared recaps 5 Key Moments from Acts 1-9 as a kick-off to a series called Multiply. At the end, he asks the question: what would a recap of your life look like? And where are you headed from here?

Michael Clark shared about God doing a new thing in his and Wendy's life and their call to plant a church in the city of Whitesburg.

In this sermon, we look at how making disciples always turns into new expressions of God at work and how church planting is inevitable in a healthy church. We'll look at the need for church planting in our region, address some common objections to church planting, and then see some biblical foundations for church planting. Don't miss it as we cast some vision for the future of New Beginnings and e...

In Hebrews 13, we're reminded that Jesus went outside the camp and has invited us to go with him, to bear his disgrace with Him. Part 1 was about how we can go outside and share the gospel through our words. This second sermon in the Going Outside series, looks at how we can go outside just the same with our actions through compassionate service to our neighbor.

In Hebrews 13, we're reminded that Jesus went outside the camp and has invited us to go with him, to bear his disgrace with Him. As an example, in Luke 8:26-39, Jesus took his disciples on a boat ride, through a storm, just to speak to one demon-possessed man. In this sermon, we learn what it means to Go Outside for Jesus.

In Luke 9:57-62, Jesus encounters three people who are interested in following Him. In this sermon, Pastor Jared looks at 3 things that often distract us from following Jesus: Comfort, Commitments, and Control.

Paul writes to the church in Corinth sharing his fatigue, criticisms, and pain that have come along with following Christ. He shares encouraging words with them: We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. How do we focus in the midst of troubles and chaos? We have to look for the Unseen.
