When we’re under the influence of something, it’s going to have implications. It always does. Sometimes those implications are good and sometimes they’re not, but they are going to be there. Today we’re going to look at an area where we are Under the Influence . We don’t like to think of ourselves as being under the influence, because it means that influence has power or authority o...

If you ask Americans what they want most, you’ll get a variety of answers. Some say they want a strong economy, lower prices, a fix for political and other divisions, or a guarantee to never be seated next to the screaming kid on the plane. Another item that is high on the list of most people is personal freedom. Today, we come to an interesting passage in the letter of Romans where the...

When people join a club or organization, it indicates that they are united…there is something they share in common with one another. That is a central feature of the book of Romans as well. Paul is writing to a group of people who were a part of the church in Rome. Many of them had a Jewish background that united them. Others had a Gentile background that united them. But...

Today, we’re going to see a circumstance where ALL of us are in it together.  It doesn’t start out very positively, but it ends that way. This is the circumstance as we continue in our Romans sermon series, Romans: Grace Changes Everything .  We’ve been learning a lot about grace and how transformational it is in our lives and we’re going to see more of that today. And the pass...

Today, as we celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, we’re going to be thinking about things taking place, At Just the Right Time . We invite you to listen in as Pastor Jeff continues our Romans series, this week focused on the was Jesus loved us through His death and saved us through His life, from Romans 5:6-11.

Today we’re going to be talking about Good News in Hard Times . We can all acknowledge that we’ve been experiencing hard times with the pandemic and unrest and wars and other personal issues that weigh us down. We all feel it and there have been a number of people and groups who have tried to help us deal with it. We don’t think there’s any doubt that we’re all interested in some Good Ne...

Today, we’re going to see some other “this or that” choices that have enormous implications. We’re going to be looking at This or That: The Essentials of Faith.   We are going to see Paul, in chapter 4, drive it home one more time as plainly as he can by considering “This or That”, the real thing and the imposter.  He’s going to draw a dividing line between the two.  And it is all c...

We all know what the little phrase “Over the top” means.  It refers to something that is beyond extravagant. There are all sorts of things that are “over the top”, and today we’re going to see some more as we come to Romans 3:21-31. This is where we’ve come in our studies through the letter of Romans that we’re calling, Romans: Grace Changes Everything . So far in our studies, Paul has offere...

We invite you to continue following along with our " Romans: Grace Changes Everything " series with Pastor Jason this week as he preaches through Romans 3:1-8

In what are you willing to put your confidence? That’s a question that comes up as we return to our studies through the book of Romans.  Throughout this book, the Apostle Paul, the author is trying to move people forward in their understanding of righteousness and unrighteousness and gospel and grace.  But his purpose isn’t to just increase people’s knowledge, he is trying to move people...

As we continue our sermon series, starting chapter 2 of Romans today, we are faced with questions like: How should people who struggle with sin in their lives act?  And, how should they act toward others?  We're going to see that this whole idea really has Paul worked up because what’s happening in the Roman church and elsewhere is not what it should be.  We need to ask if it has fi...

We can safely say that the Babe Ruth trade was a bad one…at least for the Red Sox.  But today we’re going to look at some other trades that have had even more significant ramifications.  Now, one thing we’ll notice about the trades we have in mind today is that they aren’t the trade of a person, but the trade of beliefs and actions.  And the telling, and alarming, feature about them...

What are you ashamed of? Psychologists tell us that we all have something. Some people are ashamed of their appearance, or their family, or the appearance of their family. Some people are ashamed of their finances. But one thing that most everyone says they have some shame over has to do with what they eat.  The truth is we all have things that leave us feeling ashamed.&nb...

Today, we’re beginning a journey where we’re going to see grace on display.  Over the next months, we’re going to journey through the book of Romans. Today we look at how the journey begins as Pastor Jeff preaches through Romans 1:1-7

We are in Exodus today… you may have heard of Moses, the guy who goes to Egypt and stands before Pharaoh and says, “Let my people go!” / Charlton Heston / Prince of Egypt  In the second chapter of Exodus we are introduced to Moses for the first time, as an adult. In the previous chapter, we learn that Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, was getting afraid of the Hebrews so he gave an order that all H...

Today, we’re going to be working at "Getting Things Straight" when it comes to the church.  The fact is that we have been living through some rather turbulent times that we need to understand if we’re going to open our eyes to some compelling realities that influence where we are and where we’re going.   This is an issue we have been circling around as we’ve been in our sermon series, "I...
