Making Sense of 1st Corinthians 6b | Rev Frank Hart | 5-23-21 24.05.2021 22:23

Imagine if the claim of Christianity was that Jesus was alive after the crucifixion because He is in heaven. Would that news have rocked the world? Would we bother celebrating Easter? No. The claim of Christianity is that Jesus came back from the dead IN THE FLESH. In His body. That's the hope of the Christian faith, too. Not to die and go to heaven. Listen to this message and be filled with the t...

Making Sense of 1st Corinthians CH 6 | Rev Frank Hart | 5-16-21 17.05.2021 26:54

My religion says some things are sin. I talk about one of the most controversial of these this week. I understand that your religion might not say the same thing. Your religion, your belief system might line up with popular culture, you might understand the Bible differently than I do—you might not believe in Jesus or God's Word or any of this stuff at all. That's fine. You don't have to. You can...

Making Sense of 1st Corinthians CH5 | Rev Frank Hart | 5-9-21 15.05.2021 28:43

What if Christians are "woke?" What if a Christian won't call sin, sin? What if they get offended when someone brings it up? How are we supposed to treat people in the church when they tell us to "mind our own business? HERE'S THE REAL QUESTION: How long will God put up with us if we keep doing the same sin over and over? Also, this is 1st Corinthians Chapter 5, verse by verse—on Mother's Day. Bet...

Making Sense of 1st Corinthians CH4 | Rev Frank Hart | 5-2-21 02.05.2021 25:37

If you think you know everything you need to know about the Gospel, you make it nearly impossible for you to learn anything new. In this line-by-line teaching of chapter four, there are a lot of challenging ideas. There is also some wonderful comfort. The Gospel is like that. God has Hope for you here. Join us: https://www.

Making Sense of Kings | Rev Frank Hart | 3-28-21 29.03.2021 26:50

What do Palm Sunday, 32 unfaithful kings, and whether or not you go to church have in common? More than you might think. Sorry about the sound, we had technical problems. God has Hope for you here. Join us: https://www. NewChurch. Love

Making Sense of Samuel | Rev Frank Hart | 3-21-21 22.03.2021 26:14

The story of God's people's transition from the tribal leaders of Judges to a unified Kingdom under King David. Jesus has been strongly present in all the stories that come before Samuel, but this is where the promise of the Messianic Kingdom that will be fulfilled in Jesus Christ will start to be spoken of specifically. The promise made to David of the Kingdom of God, ruled by the greater King, w...

Making Sense of Judges pt 2 | Rev Frank Hart | 3-14-21 15.03.2021 30:07

Jephthah and Sampson. These stories are intense. Reality has sharp edges. The world is a dangerous place. God has rescued us, made us His people, and told us the kind of people we need to be if we're going to be able to navigate through all the obstacles, distractions, and threats that are ahead of us. "In those days Israel had no king; all the people did whatever seemed right in their own eyes."...

"Making Sense of Judges Pt 1" | Rev Frank Hart | 3-7-21 09.03.2021 29:04

There is a pattern in the Book of Judges that will probably seem very familiar to you. If you're like me, you probably go "full Judges" some weeks between Sundays. That's why God has sent someone to save you. The Book of Judges is a bunch of really cool, really dark stories about God rescuing His people even when they are full of the worst ideas. God has Hope for you here. Join us: https://www. Ne...

Making Sense of Joshua | Rev Frank Hart | 2-21-21 22.02.2021 29:38

What does the book of Joshua have to say to us? It's kind of like the Book of Acts in the Old Testament. It can also be a hard one to swallow for modern readers because of all the violence and bloodshed. This message will help you make sense of all these things and understand how Joshua points to Jesus. God has hope for you here. NewChurch. Love

Making Sense of Proverbs | Rev Frank Hart | 1-24-21 25.01.2021 28:50

If you want to be wise, if you want your life to be successful, if you want to have favor in the eyes of God and your fellow human beings—this book is the place to start. If there is any book in the Bible that serves as an instruction manual for life, it would be this one. But it's a lot more than that. This is life. Also, it points to the true Wisdom of God which is Jesus. God has Hope for you he...

Making Sense of Job | Rev Frank Hart | 1-10-21 11.01.2021 31:36

The Christmas Story Told With Wonder | Rev Frank Hart | 12-24-20 25.12.2020 23:40

Gather 'round children of all ages. This is the story that all the fuss is about. Do you want to know how to trust God more than your eyes can see? God came to us. He didn't wait for us to come to Him, or for us to make the first move. That's how love works. We pursue the people we love. Remember that tomorrow when you're around all the people you love. Go to them. Talk with them. Listen to them....

So, is Jesus Really Coming Back or Not? | Rev Frank Hart | 12-13-20 14.12.2020 28:34

What do we know about Jesus coming back? Was Christmas really on December 25th? What about all that pagan origin of Christmas stuff? Plus, Pastor Frank talks about The Rapture, and there's a blessing that you probably need to hear. God has Hope for you here. Join us: https://www. NewChurch. Love

So, Where's The Peace and Joy? | Rev Frank Hart | 12-6-20 07.12.2020 28:23

Relationship Rules #3 – Pursue | Rev Frank Hart | 11-29-20 30.11.2020 29:18

It's possible this is the most important message you'll ever hear. Getting down to the nitty-gritty. How the things we do, our actions, our deeds—are either going to flow from our faith and build up our relationships, or we'll just continue being the selfish, petty, judgmental jerks we've always been. We have to pursue the people we love. Make time for them. You Go First. God has Hope for you here...
