World Missions conference

Last message, we kicked off our series about the fruit of God's Spirit working in our lives by learning about the first one ... LOVE! Love is such a critical part of God's work in and through our lives that we are going to spend one more week learning how God wants it to be lived out in our lives. Turn to 1 Corinthians 13 as we study God's Word together. Review of pt. 1LOVE IS…#1. v...

Ever wonder what it would look like if God were at work in your life? Well, the Bible tells us! In Galatians 5:22-23, we are given a description of the kinds of things that we would see if God were at work in our lives. Whether you are someone investigating what it means to be a Christian and want to know what that would look like, or whether you are already a follower of Jesus and want to see if...

We've been talking about barriers to God's work in our lives, and no doubt, one of the biggest challenges to us experiencing God's purpose is TIME.What Would You Do If…“Your Time Was Short”Psalm 39: 4-6Psalm 90: 10James 4: 14I Peter 1: 24Psalm 103: 13-16#1. You’d get right with God – Romans 14: 12Hebrews 9: 272 main things you’ll account for to God…#1. your soul - did you ever give...

"What Would You Do If? Overcoming the Limits to an Extravagant, Faith-filled Life”How much of our lives are lived in fear of failure? We're afraid to try something because we might fail. This is especially true in our relationship with God. He calls us to step out and trust Him to do great things through our lives, but we are paralyzed by the prospect that we'll crash and burn. What...

"What Would You Do If? Overcoming the Limits to an Extravagant, Faith-filled Life”"What would you do if... Money were no object? Wow, think about that question! As you do, you begin to realize how much our lives are affected by money and maybe our lack of it. Today, we’re going to consider that further, though, and ask... Could God have more for our lives, but we are limiting what He is...

"What Would You Do If? Overcoming the Limits to an Extravagant, Faith-filled Life”How often does fear keep us from doing what God has for our lives? Our current series of message is called “What Would You Do If?”, and we’re learning about the barriers that get in the way of us experiencing all that God has for us. Fear is one of the most common that we struggle with, so we’re going to turn to...

"What Would You Do If? Overcoming the Limits to an Extravagant, Faith-filled Life”In this new series, we’re going to look at some of the biggest obstacles that get in the way of us experiencing the abundant life God wants to give to us. In fact, this weekend, we’re going to look at the #1 barrier to an extravagant, faith-filled life. What Would You Do If…“Self Was Not Your Focus”definition of...

There are so many things in our lives that hold us back from what God has created us to experience. In this series, we’re going to be challenged to start looking beyond those limits, trusting God, and seeing His incredible purpose for our lives! What Would You Do If…Mistakes Could Be Erased#1. What if…what I’ve done wrong could be forgiven – Romans 5: 1-2Philippians 3: 9II Corinthians 5: 21Colossi...

The New Hope Celebration Choir presented the encouraging musical "God For Us," with narration by Jeff Butler, and testimonies by Kathy LaPan and Bill Maynard.

Over the last several weeks, we’ve been learning the things that the Lord has called us to partner together and do as a church family. Thisweekend, we’re going to finish out this important series by talking about the most important assignment that God has given us to accomplish inour lifetime. Summary of messages in series:I’m In: You Can Count on Me…#1. I PRAY#2. I CARE#3. I SERVE#4. I GIVEI&apos...

God designed the church to be a family who has partnered together with Him and with one another to do His work in this world. Today, we're continuing a series that talks about the importance of that partnership and give you an opportunity to say, "I'm In: You can count on me. I see the partnership God has called us to have together, and I want to be a part of that with the New Hope...

I’m In: "I CARE" Pastor Robbie Lankford #1. The importance of needs to God – Matthew 9: 35-38 I Peter 5: 7 Matthew 11: 28-30 Psalm 3: 4 I John 3: 16-19 #2. Caring is a challenge – Proverbs 14: 4 #3. How God wants to meet needs through His family – Acts 4: 32-34 Acts 2: 45 our plan for care ministry to happen at New Hope… a. Growth Groups are the key to care at New Hope 2 ways this happen...

#1. Following Jesus means serving others rather than self Philippians 2: 3-5#2. All of us have gifts and should use themI Peter 4: 10I Corinthians 12: 7#3. It’s not the same without your part I Corinthians 12: 7

Many times, when we begin our relationship with God, the focus is on what He is doing in our own personal lives - how He is changing me, growing me, blessing me. If we are following Jesus, though, pretty soon we will realize that a big part of His plan for our lives is that He calls us to partner with other believers to do some things together for Him. That's the focus of this new series. Is...

Matthew 13:19-23#1. Do you have a HARD HEART? – v. 19Luke 8: 15 (parallel passage)Mark 5: 20 (parallel passage)#2. Do you have a SHALLOW HEART? – v. 20-21#3. Do you have a CLUTTERED HEART? – v. 22Luke 12: 16-21 #4. Do you have a READY HEART? – v. 23Mark 4: 20 Luke 8: 15

Has the Lord ever given you a second chance but then you blew it again? That’s something we all struggle with and that’s what we’re going to explore in Jonah 4 as we talk about “Here I Go Again!”#1. Taking a step back – v. 1-3Psalm 145: 8 (John 3: 16 of Old Testament)if you are taking steps back, consider these thoughts… a. don’t forget what happened before b. focus on this decision, not the past...

#1. Second chances start with God – v. 1-4Matthew 9: 37Psalm 14: 2-3John 6: 44#2. We must decide what we will do – v. 5-9 Luke 11: 31-32#3. What God is willing to do for us – v. 10II Peter 3: 9Psalm 145: 8

When we run from God or don’t follow His leading in our lives, it can quickly get us in a world of trouble. Many people, though, are so ashamed that they’ve allowed their lives to get in the mess that they don’t think they should call out to God to help them get out of it. Today, in our series “Running from God”, we’re going to turn to Jonah 2 and find out that turning to God in our time of troubl...

Most of us have run from God at some point in our lives. Many of us may even be doing that right now. We need to understand, though, that running from the Lord is not without consequences. That decision can have a huge impact on our lives, as well as the lives of others around us. Turn to Jonah 1:4-17 as we talk about “Running from God: How’s that Going for You?”“Running from God: How’s That Going...

Has God Ever Spoken to You?

Psalm 51

Over the last few weeks, we’ve learned a lot from God’s Word about forgiveness. As great as it all sounds, though, sometimes it’s hard to live out in real life. That’s what we are going to focus on today as we finish out this powerful series of messages by looking at how to live out forgiveness in a messy, complicated world of relationships.“Forgiveness: How Do I Live It Out?”#1. Overlook as much...
