Killearn Methodist Church: Sermons

1 Samuel 16:1-13 | Let's invite God to align our hearts with His heart, to align our will, thoughts, feelings, intentions, motives, desires, perspective, world view, and our actions, with God’s. That is the heart that God is looking for in each one of us.

Mark 10:17-31 | True greatness in God’s kingdom is not judged by our success in this world, by how much we have, but by how much we have given away.

Mark 2:18-22 | Jesus is now, through the Holy Spirit, doing in us that which we cannot do in ourselves. We are daily becoming new creations in Jesus.

Matthew 25:14-30 | Jesus points us to how He expects us to prepare for His homecoming. How then can we get ready for Jesus’ return? If Jesus returned right now, would we be ready?

Matthew 25:14-30

Matthew 8:23-27 | Jesus is God with us. He’s in the boat with us in the middle of the greatest storms. Faith is not the absence of fear, but the choice to trust God even when fear is present.

Matthew 6:25-34 | The only true antidote to worry is to pause and reflect on God’s love and care for us, seek God’s will, and then daily trust in our Heavenly Father, who knows exactly what we need and promises to take care of us.

Jude 22-23 | For centuries, Christians and non-Christians alike have been using the phrase, “Love the sinner, hate the sin” and we are still using it today. It is so popular that some even mistakenly think it is found in the Bible, but of course, it’s not. What is most important, is the question as to whether or not the concept is found in the Bible, and if so, what does it mean to love the sinner...

Isaiah 55:8-9 | If we will acknowledge that God is the infinite God and trust Him with all that we do not know, God promises to direct the path of our life and give us a peace and security that can only be found in trusting Him.

Romans 8:22-28 | God is sovereign and has given us a free will to work with or against Him. Thankfully, God promises all of us who love Him that He will take the good and the bad in our lives and use them to accomplish His perfect will for our good.

John 15:1-8 | We have all worked hard to get to where we are today in our jobs, our families, our own personal lives and God expects our best effort in all those areas. But as we draw closer in our relationship with God, we learn the truth that it is by the grace of God that we are where we are today.

John 15:1-8 | Sometimes when we cannot stand, God stands for us, when we cannot take another step in the midst of an overwhelming trial, God holds us and takes the step for us, or when things are so bad that we do not even have the strength to hold on to God, God holds on to us.

Hebrews 3:12-19 | Jesus though will never quit walking with us, but He gives us the option of walking with Him or walking away from Him. God longs for us to be faithful in our walk with Him to the very end.

2 Corinthians 5:18-21 | At the heart of Christianity, is Jesus. All of the Bible points to Jesus. Our worship is meant to lift up Jesus. As Christians, we live our lives for Jesus with the hopes that as we mature, we will one day be more like Jesus. Jesus has given us an abundant, new life now, and eternal life to come.

2 Corinthians 13:14 | Who is God? Today we spend time talking about the Trinity; how God is three persons of the one same God, and we will focus on who God the Father is.

Galatians 6:1-3 | God’s design for the church is to be a community of humble, gentle, loving, burden bearers. If you are hurting or need help with the weight of your burdens, tell Jesus and tell another follower of Jesus that you trust, so they can help you carry the load.

1 Kings 19:9b-18 | No matter how dark, lonely, and despairing our lives can seem, the truth is we are never alone. God is always with us, and the church is a family where we can find companionship and support.

Genesis 2:18-25 | God’s antidote for lonliness is both relationship with Himself and Christ-centered community. Our need for community is deeper than the shared love of a common interest. Our need for community speaks to the very core of how God has made us - we were made for community.

Acts 2

Acts 1:12-26 | Waiting is hard for most of us and waiting on God to answer a prayer, to solve a problem, to open a new door of opportunity, can be very difficult. After Jesus rose from the dead and went back home to heaven the disciples found themselves in a time of waiting for days. How did they handle it?

Acts 1:6-11 | Jesus’ ascension into heaven was a launching pad for all of us to go out into the world and be Jesus’ witnesses in the power of the Holy Spirit. You are a powerful witness for Jesus in the world. The unbelieving world will see the difference that Jesus has made in your life.

Matthew 28:16-20 | We are an imperfect community that worships and faces challenges of our faith. Jesus knows that, and still He gives us the privilege of following Him in making disciples throughout the world.

John 21:1-19 | When Jesus said, “Follow me” it was as if Jesus was saying, “let’s start over as if nothing ever happened.” God can take even the worst failures and forgive and redeem our lives by His grace.

John 20:24-31 | As we trust God with every detail of our lives, we are learning to let go and let God be in control. We are learning to trust that God always knows and does what is best.

Luke 24:13-35 | Kicking off our new series that will follow the resurrection reappearances of Jesus, and lead us back to the Upper Room and Pentecost.
