Gospel Life Sermons

Forgiveness embodies the very nature and character of God, therefore when a person has been truly saved, rescued, redeemed and restored through their forgiveness of sin and new life in Christ, they will have a desire and God-given ability to forgive others.

The Triumphal Entrance, The Temple and The Tree: The only way to get all we long for, desire and crave is to identify, turn over, curse, abandon and leave for dead all other fruitless and incomplete ways and trust in another way.

Jesus is On Mission to the cross. He has a following which is customary for teachers. Those following Jesus were so focused on learning they were quick to tell outsiders to “SHUT UP” so that they could hear Jesus better for their own selfish goals. Rather if they were aligned with the God-Man-Jesus they would care about what he cares about first; other people. Bringing other people into relationsh...

In order to be great you must become least. A servant of all to all. The position of the greatest in the kingdom has been filled by Jesus. He lived to serve, not to be served. The goal as disciples is not to be GREAT but to emulate Jesus the great in being a servant of all to all.

Jesus came not to be served, but to die. He was born to die. He came to give his life as a ransom for many.

A rich man has a difficult encounter with Jesus. He learns that Jesus’ kingdom does not operate like any other kingdom.

Marriage is a sacred union established by God, intended to glorify God. Marriage is the venue where God grows His people in their understanding of His unbreakable love as they express that covenantal love one to another through their spiritual, physical, and emotional intimacy throughout their entire lives.

Discipleship cannot be compartmentalized or limited. It flows into and makes demands on every area of the disciple’s life. Trusting and following Jesus impacts everything.

In Mark 9:38-41, Jesus teaches his disciples two things. First, to practice discernment in their interactions with others that are claiming to do Christian work. And second, to demonstrate humility in that discernment knowing that all kingdom work done in the name of Jesus is done to make much of King Jesus! Take the time to study this passage with us this week and ask Jesus to be your Truthful Te...

Christian Discipleship is NOT about you and me, it’s about our lives exalting Jesus and honoring God. Both of which will only take place when we die to ourselves and humbly and sacrificially give our lives away for the sake of others expecting nothing in return.

Why do Christians struggle to trust in the power sufficiency of Christ? Much of the time it is because we live life out of our own abilities instead of looking to the only One Who is able! Looking unto Jesus, the Chief and End [or object] of our faith and asking Him for HELP, is how we overcome doubt and deal with unbelief.

Perfect faith and moral righteousness is impossible for us and if you wait for that, you’ll never come into the presence of God – and experience Jesus! All Jesus requires is that you admit you’re NOT RIGHTEOUS and that you NEED HELP! And when you say that, you are approaching God in worship!

Our Creator God is a healing God and this is perfectly exemplified in the person and work of Jesus Christ. During this short five week series, we’ll witness Jesus providing physical healing for some, but preparing to provide freedom, redemption and forever healing and restoration for all who place their trust in Him.

There is an already and a not yet of the gospel. Jesus lived a perfect life in the place of your imperfection, died a sinners death that we deserved, and rose to life securing new life and forgiveness of sin and the confidence of spending eternity with Christ forever. And here we are; having the work of Christ already accomplished on our behalf, and yet we are wrestling with the sin and struggles...

We believe that the more diverse our church community is, the more it reveals Jesus and reflects the magnificent and glorious reality of the fully realized Kingdom of God. Therefore, we must pursue a culture of diversity!

If a church is truly committed to making disciples of Jesus Christ that church will also be a church planting church. Church planting is a natural byproduct of discipleship!

The church is called to discipleship and discipleship is all about multiplication; more people meeting Jesus and learning how to trust and follow Jesus, so that more people can meet Jesus and trust and follow Him too. This sermon presents some common reasons why many Christians struggle with discipling others.

Practicing your faith is just as vital as believing the right things. Relationships are God’s litmus for you to evaluate what you truly believe. Real relationships are God’s venue for transformation. Therefore, we must embrace and learn to enjoy our relational reality in Christ.

Pastor Rob takes us back to the roots of the Protestant Reformation with a message discussing the first core value of Gospel Life Church: Reformed Theology (The Five Solas): Sola Scriptura (Scripture alone), Sola Gratia (grace alone), Sola Fide (faith alone), Solus Christus (Christ alone), and Soli Deo Gloria (the glory of God alone) and why these facets of Reformed Theology are relevant not only...

We all have an idea in our minds as what hospitality is and looks like. How does the Bible define hospitality? Very simply, love for strangers. It sounds much easier than it is, opening our homes and our lives to the strangers in our own communities, to show them the love that Christ has for them.

What does the church that is redeemed and rescued look like? And how do they interact? They give God the glory through affirming and recognizing His work in one another.

It is not our perfection that displays the glory of Christ to the world around us. But, our loving acceptance and forgiveness of the imperfections of others towards us; because, the perfect one Jesus has forgiven all of us all of our sins against Him. Enabling us to be free to forgive others when they sin against us, by the power of the Holy Spirit; but, if anyone does sin we have an advocate with...

Living a gospel shaped life of humility is rooted in the redemptive work of Jesus Christ who came down low to seek, save, and humbly serve those who would deny "self" and follow Him. It is only through His truth and His grace that we receive the power of the Holy Spirit to live out the gospel and view others as more important than ourselves.

Biblical hope is a rock-solid conviction of faith in the future promises of God, a steadfast anchor in an unchangeable and immovable Almighty God. What is your source of life and hope? Is it the Word of God? What is your greatest hope? Is it to see King Jesus face to face in all of His glory? How do you create a culture of hope? By remembering to preach the truth of gospel to yourself daily AND by...

When we focus on the physical we’re going to miss the spiritual. Far too often we are so focused on our physical wants or needs that we forget God’s providence in the current and the past. And in those situations, God has given us stories to reference His faithfulness when physical circumstances get tough.
