Lifeway Church - Weekend Services

We all have a pretty specific version of what we think of when we think of the Christmas story. The apostle John, however, records a different version of what happened. His focus is not just on THAT Christ was born, or HOW he was born, but WHY he was born. This week, Pastor Jimmy Nimon kicks off our series, Receiving Jesus, with a message about how to receive God’s promises.

Where are you investing your treasure? The New Testament says we should be investing in ministry that helps the poor, that reaches the lost, that equips God’s people, and in laborers that do the work and places to do the work. In this week’s message, Pastor Jimmy Nimon addresses some common mindsets that many of us have regarding where we should be investing our money.

Money is a touchy topic. Some people think that if they are commanded to give, it robs the joy of giving. Yet, we are commanded to love, but no one complains that it robs the joy of loving.

In this week’s message, Pastor Jimmy Nimon talks about how to stand before God by believing that it’s possible to encounter God, prioritizing His presence, removing distractions, and seeking His face.

Deep down, we all yearn to be close to God. But since our relationships are formed by our perceptions, we can’t enjoy intimacy with God until we see Him as He really is. In this week’s message, Steve Sabol challenges the way that we see God and encourages us with some ways to clear our vision so that we can see God for who He really is.

Jesus is coming back. Live accordingly. In this week’s message Pastor Jimmy Nimon talks about the current crisis in Israel, how we are seeing biblical prophecy fulfilled right in front of our eyes, and how we can stand during these times.

It’s possible that we don’t always like the Old Testament Law because we are naturally prone to resist rules and restrictions. In this way, we are much like the Israelites. In this week’s message Pastor Renee Groff talks about why the law still matters to us today.

God provided for the Israelites’ needs over and over again. Whether their physical, spiritual, or emotional needs, His power was unrivaled. In this week’s message, Pastor Lydia Nimon talks about God’s provision in our own lives.

Just like the Israelites, we, too, need someone to rescue us from sin and self. But what is our role and what is God's role in finding this freedom? In this week's message, Pastor Renee Groff shares how remembering who we were helps us embrace the journey to who we can become in Christ.

Part of discovering your purpose is facing the realities of your past.

It is possible to make difficult decisions without succumbing to fear, anxiety, and discord. How do we follow godly principles that lead us toward good decisions and ultimately to peace and joy and life? In this week’s message Pastor Renee Groff addresses these questions and walks us though what it looks like to live out “fearless decision-making” in a practical way.

Ideally, we should make choices with the consequences in mind. However, there is hope even when we “reap what we sow” and find ourselves experiencing the negative consequences of our poor choices. Thankfully, we serve a God who redeems even our foolishness. This week, Pastor Jimmy Nimon continues our series, CHOICES, by talking about how to make sure we are sowing good seed, so that we reap good c...

Decisions, decisions, decisions. We all make decisions.

In a world that tells us to put ourselves first, the message of the gospel runs counterculture. Jesus showed us the way to become great was to serve. When we put the needs of others above our own, we can influence those around us with our kindness, our service, and our generosity. This week Pastor Jimmy Nimon kicks off our new series Greatness 101.
