Hill Country Bible Church Sermons

Christmas Eve is here! Join as as Pastor Korey wraps up this year's Christmas series.

The wisemen didn't know how far they had to travel. They didn't know how long it would take them. They didn't know for certain where they were headed as they took their first steps of their journey to Bethlehem. In this message, we ask ourselves if there are any obstacles keeping us from worshiping the King.

Sometimes the holidays are simply hard. Maybe this year you've experienced loss, the loss of a family member, the loss of job, the loss of your joy. Maybe you find yourself singing "Blue Christmas" for the first time. In this message, we take a deeper look at how Christ speaks to our moments where we truly feel the depth of blue.

Have you ever recognized how much green we see at Christmas, from the garland we hang to the trees we decorate? Green reminds us that there is life right around the corner, transforming the dead, lifeless visuals of Winter. In this message, we see that Christ came at just the right time to reveal a new life found in Him.

The holiday season should be a time of family, friends, fun and celebrating Jesus’ birth! However, for some of us, it can actually be a time of anxiety, stress, doubt and fear. If you are a believer in Jesus, we have a peace, given to us, that transcends all understanding. In this message, we take a look at the peace Jesus gives to us and how we can live knowing that He has overcome the world.

Idols are everywhere, and they relentlessly clamor for our attention. For some reason, we have allowed them to creep into our daily lives without ever realizing how much time and attention we freely give them. How do we regain the proper perspective on what we worship? Join us this week as we understand a Godly approach to an old dilemma.

Throughout the life of the Big C church, we have struggled to help unrepentant believers address their public sin. For this message, let's take an honest look at how we address open sin with a heart of restoration rather than excommunication. It's time we admit we've possibly done more harm than good in helping people get right with the Father.

How often do we find ourselves placing judgmental opinions on the lives of others we don't even know? Whether we're at a stoplight, grocery store checkout line, sporting event, or even church, why do we struggle to form godly opinions? In this message, we explore these struggles and find a godly path forward to a healthy understanding of judgment both in and outside the church.

It's terrible to know your bags have been lost while standing at the airport baggage claim. Yet, we claim baggage we are unwilling to check at the feet of Jesus. We continue to travel through life with these bags that hold our unforgiveness, bitterness, and pride. It's time to leave those behind. This message kicks off a new series called "Unchecked Baggage," come see how you c...

In our fast-paced world, where hustle and bustle take center stage, we often find worry creeping in and gripping our hearts. It suffocates our souls and produces a temporary atheism where we truly question God's faithfulness. In this message, we understand Christ's solution to worry, as He invites us to seek His Kingdom first.

There is something that feels hardwired inside us that produces this desire to acquire more than we need. For some it's envy, and others it may be greed, but for most this desire is rooted in fear. In this message, we explore how Jesus paints a different picture of resting in His Kingdom to meet our every need.

Many people experience prayer in routine moments that feel like dinner time. They practice repetitious or almost mundane steps of approaching the King. God invites us to experience more of His presence through personal moments of relationship through prayer. In this message, we unpack the model of prayer Christ gave his followers.

The human struggle behind "Seek First the Kingdom of God” is rooted in our human nature for approval and applause. We wrestle between identifying our personal kingdoms on one hand, while attempting to seek His Kingdom on the other, may feel untenable. In this message, we navigate the call to Seek First the Kingdom of God in the culture that invites you to seek your own.

When Christ calls his audience to “Seek first the Kingdom of God", this gives the impression that one knows what the Kingdom of God is. How can we honestly embrace this call to seek the Kingdom of God first when our hearts and minds are enamored with secondary things? In this message, we start the conversation around Christ's invitation to seek His Kingdom and righteousness.

Difficult times seem to have become a “way of life” in today’s world. How do we cope and what can we learn? In this message, we see how Paul faced and responded to a challenge in Acts 14.

Many sermons have been preached about the difference between law and grace. In this message, we take a look at this subject from the apostle Paul’s perspective as we study his first missionary journey from Acts 13.

We often look for fairness in a life that, more often than not, does not provide it. How do we reconcile our perception of fairness with actions of God? In this message, continue our study in Acts 12!

They were first called Christians at Antioch. Why? What were these believers doing that are examples for us today?

In this life we can expect chaos to happen. When it does happen where do you turn? We see Stephen, who is in a situation that turns out deadly, turn his eyes to Jesus. Not only does he seek Jesus, but he also prays for the people causing the chaos. In this message, we see how we as believers in Christ should handle the chaos around us and where we find our peace.

This week, we celebrate all God did through our Backyard Bible Clubs this past week! Together, we’ll dive into Psalm 25:4 and discover the paths God has planned for each of us.

What does it look like to have courage under fire? Join us as we explore the bold faith of Stephen in Acts 7 — a man so full of conviction that he couldn’t help but speak the truth, even when it cost him everything.

Have you ever been falsely accused? How did it make you feel? How did you respond? Join us as we discuss how a person in the spirit reacted as we continue our study in the book of Acts!
