Highland Park Baptist Church - Sermons

We love our families, but they can sometimes be a challenge. Join us as we begin this new series on how to make the most of our relationship with our family.

What do you value? What we value reveals a lot about us; our interests, our worldview and our priorities. Join us as we begin our new series on money with a discussion about how we should view the financial blessings God has poured into our lives.

One of the most difficult things to do is to talk to family about Christ. For one reason or another, many Christians find it easier to talk to strangers about their faith than their own family. But what if it didn’t have to be that way? Join us as we explore some of the hidden traps and misconceptions about evangelism and how it doesn’t have to be as intimidating as we often make it.

Unfortunately conflict is all to common in families, but that doesn't mean you can't still respond Christ-like. Join us as we look at seven principles of handling conflict within families.

Even the best families have to learn how to forgive one another. Unfortunately, there are a lot of myths about what forgiveness is. Join us as we put some of these myths to rest and encourage one another to begin embracing forgiveness.

Sometimes we find ourselves around people who are immature, unhealthy and relationally draining. These are toxic people. They may be people that we love, but because of their behavior they are a challenge to be around. Join us as we explore how we can love these people.

As we wrap up our Faith & Politics series we're going to reflect on a few key truths to remember as well as what we can do to be Christlike in our political involvements.

One of the most hotly debated topics in politics today is immigration. The left say it's heartless to deport immigrants and keep them from coming in; while the right say it undermines our national security and idenitity to open our borders. But what does the Bible say on this subject. Join us as we attempt to wade through this complex issue.

Is war ever okay? How should we fight against terrorism? We are living in a time when how a nation defends itself against threats foreign and domestic is under greater scrutiny. How should Christian think through the many issues related to national defense? Join us as we explore this topic.

While many people get Buddhism and Hinduism confused, these are two very different religions. Join us as we explore who Buddha was, what he taught and how it's influencing the world today.

It's one of the oldest religions in the world and it's influence increasing in our culture. Join us as we explore Hinduism and how it measures up to Christianity.

A faith filled with movie stars and secret knowledge...welcome to the Church of Scientology. You may see it mentioned in the tabloids at the local supermarket, but what do they actually believe and more importantly how are they affecting our current culture? Join us as we explore this strange new faith.
