Life Community Church

Today is the first sermon in a new series where we discover the biggest Movement that the world has ever known.  Join us in the first two chapters of Acts, where we see the Movement beginning with Jesus and His disciples.   Although the Movement begins with Jesus, it continues with us, the Church.  As we come to know Him, Jesus provides us the power necessary to fuel the Movement, via the Holy Spi...

Today, we come to the final message in the Red Letter series.  In Matthew 28, Jesus is talking with the disciples, giving them a commission to follow through the end of their lives.  He commands them to go and make disciples of all the nations.  Often times, we make this too difficult, when it is as simple as living out our lives with another group of believers.  Are you being discipled?  Are you...

As we begin to wind down the Red Letters summer series, we go to John 14 where Jesus defines the path to Life through Him.  He tells us not to be troubled, but to instead,  trust Him and accept His peace.  It sounds so simple, yet we find it so hard to do? We have a tendency to worry about everything.  We always seem to be in situations where we have allowed our joy to be stolen.  Jesus didn'...

This week Pastor Jamey walks through John 8 and Matthew 18. As we follow Jesus spreading his ministry, we encounter, yet again, religious leaders attempting to trap Jesus; however, Jesus’ love will not be stopped. In this passage we learn how to handle conflict in the church and we learn a pattern of how to use it to build relationships and build up people. What we end up seeing, is that the sin b...

Today's focus is on two of Jesus's disciples, James and John, the Sons of Zebedee (a.k.a. the  Sons of Thunder).  We start, in Luke 9:51 - 56, when Jesus, James and John are preparing to head to a Samaritan village.  The local villagers did not welcome Jesus and in response, James and John want to call fire down from heaven on the Samaritan village.  Jesus rebukes them and they head to a...

Today we are joined by a special guest, Billy Willis.  Billy and his wife, Katy, are missionaries with Youth Alive Illinois.  Did you know that our average human life span is 72.5 years.  By the time most kids start high school, 20% of their life is already spent.  Psalm 90:12 says Teach us to realize the brevity of life, so that we may grow in wisdom.   Life is short and an extremely valuable gif...

In this message of the Red Letter series, we delve into a sermon that Jesus is delivering from a hill in northern Israel.  We look at Matthew 5, where He is defining a series of eight blessings, commonly referred to as the Beatitudes.  For most of us, the Good Life would be defined as:  life on a beach, no debt, living happily ever after.   Jesus's definition is quite a bit different.  He cal...

In today's message, we continue the Red Letters Series , returning to the story of the Prodigal Son.  This time, we shift the focus from the prodigal son, to his brother, in Luke 15:25-32.  When the prodigal son returns, his brother is angry at how his father unconditionally accepts the wayward son.  In his response to his father, he recounts the many things that he had done to earn his fathe...

During week nine of our Red Letter Series , we return to the story of the Prodigal Son in Luke 15:20-24.  This time, we bring focus to the wayward son's return to his father.  In the distance, his father sees him and immediately runs to embrace and kiss him.  He doesn't pepper him with questions, nor does he demand restitution.  Instead, he calls for a robe, a ring, and some sandals to r...

In week 8 of the Red Letter series, we find ourselves in Luke 15:11-20, where Jesus is telling the story of the Prodigal Son.  We focus on a young man, sitting in a pigsty, longing to eat what he is feeding the pigs.  At that moment he realizes that there is a much better life available, if he will return to his father.  Likewise, we may find ourselves in the middle of a pigsty...a muddy mess that...

Today, in week 7 of our Red Letter series, our Top Two Pastors zoom into a conversation between Jesus and his twelve disciples in Mark 6:6-13.  In the conversation, he instructs the disciples to go out, two by two, telling everyone to repent of their sins and to turn to God.  Jesus sends them out with His authority.  He doesn't require them to get things in order or straightened out before th...

Red Letter Series As we continue to look at the words of Jesus, we bring the spotlight to John 5:1-15, where Jesus seeks out a man who has been unable to walk for 38 years.  Jesus asks the man, " Do you want to be healed? ".  As the man provides Jesus with excuses as to why he hasn't been healed, Jesus says " Get up, take up your bed, and walk. "  With these words, instant...
