NorthPoint Church DSM

If you've ever waited and waited for something you've wanted more than anything, you have an idea of how Hannah felt when we pick up her story in I Samuel. Join us as we see three reasons Hannah was an underdog in her culture and what she turned to in the midst of her bitter longing. Then learn five things to take away from Hannah when you are the underdog.

Ever seen the movie Hoosiers, Rudy, Remember the Titans, or Miracle? Ever watched March Madness basketball? If you answered yes, you know what it looks like to root for the underdog. While it may be fun to cheer for one, no one really wants to be the underdog themselves. But this Sunday, we'll look at why it sometimes is the best place for us to be in life. Join us as we kick off our summer series...

Sometimes our core assumptions can keep us from receiving the truth about Jesus. Join us as we see how Paul's words in Romans push back on a foundational belief in today's society. Hear the truth about why we need each other and some questions to challenge you about your own thinking.

Jesus warned his followers they would have trouble in this world, and many of us are acquainted with various forms of true suffering. So why would Paul tell us to rejoice in suffering? While it may sound counter-intuitive to do so, God has good reasons, and He provides resources to help. We'll learn about those in just three verses this week. 

Many of us have a voice in our head telling us things about ourselves and the world around us, helping us process life. But not all those voices are helpful. In fact, some of those voices lie to us and can cause a lot of damage. Join us to see the playlist Jesus wants us to play on repeat in our minds instead. 

Our right standing, or justification, with God has always been about faith. But it doesn't end with that. We'll see this Sunday that justification is actually just the beginning of life with God. Join us to see what happens next and three big benefits you can receive. 

We're changing things up here at NorthPoint! We just introduced a new logo this week. It's a look that ties in directly with another big change on the way. Join us to hear all about what's new, and more importantly, why we think these changes will actually help you in your walk with Jesus. 

Why would Paul tell Roman Christians that they should emulate the faith of a man who lived hundreds of years before Jesus even came? We'll go back to Genesis to help us answer that question this Sunday. Plus, learn the three Ps that Abraham trusted in that we also should trust today. 

The first part of Romans has shown us how ungodly we all are. So what hope do we have of getting right with God? Turns out, there's a lot of hope! Join us tomorrow to see the gift waiting for all of us and the only way we can receive it. Then learn the move His gift will lead you to make and why Jesus is worthy of that.

Ever been nervous to receive a report card - either yours or your kid's? Well, Paul is giving humanity a report card of sorts this week in Romans 3. Join us to see his verdict on humanity, including three conclusions about all of us. Learn why Paul is so adamant that we understand our condition and where we go from here.

Paul points out some attitude issues for Jews in the early chapters of Romans. However, we often do the same types of things today without realizing it. Join us as we learn the best way to kill those troubling attitudes and get on board with God and His mission instead. Plus, see what we should do when we face pushback about what we believe. The answer may surprise you. 

You've probably been invited to something and needed to RSVP to it. So which is more important: the invitation itself or your actual response? This Sunday, we'll see how Paul delivered a verbal punch to Jews for what they were clinging to and reflect on how we ourselves should respond to God's invitation today.

It can be easy to point fingers at people who blatantly sin and ignore God. But Paul shows us in Romans that we all need to look in the mirror. Join us as we see some subtle ways we sin that we may tend to forget. Then learn three big reasons why church people need Jesus, too.

Global missions isn't just for a few people "to do," and being a missionary overseas isn't for everyone either. So what is your role in missions? Join us as we see the part about 99% of us have to play. Then we'll show you the two things you need to do to carry it out. 

You don't have to look too far to see sex is a big deal in our current culture. We're going to talk about it as we continue our message series, Paul's Letter to the Romans. Join us as we learn two big truths about sexual impurity and God's design for sexuality. 

You may have heard - or even felt yourself - that our culture is losing its way, declining, even crumbling. This Sunday, we'll look at the steps that lead to a slow progression of a crumbling culture and see what Romans 1 has to say about the solution for this problem. 

The first chapter of Romans shows us that the righteousness of God is power, salvation, and life. Great reasons to want His righteousness, right? This week, we'll see the bad news about it: His wrath. Join us to learn what exactly the wrath of God means, why it has to come, and where it leaves us when we can come to terms with it.

We're staying in Romans 1 this week to unpack the third reason Paul wrote to the church there. We'll see how the Gospel is like a diamond and what "the righteousness of God" brings to us. Then we'll learn what being "unashamed of the Gospel" really means-- and three things it doesn't. 

Paul wrote his letter to the Roman church for at least three reasons. Those same reasons can help us understand why we do church today. We'll explore those and show you the move you need to make once you've decided "you're in" when it comes to church. Plus, see why we think NorthPoint can actually be compared a little to Rome.

If you've ever wondered why you should believe in Jesus, we think you'll find the answer right in the opening words of Romans 1. This week, we dive back into Paul's Letter to the Romans to see the four essentials of Gospel Christianity. 

We're kicking off the new year with a new message series, Paul's Letter to the Romans. The first seven verses may seem like a simple greeting, but there are four things we learn there that are key to understanding one of the most influential books of the entire Bible. Join us as we learn what those four things are, why Paul wrote this letter to begin with, and how our mission at NorthPoint mirrors...

Christmas at NorthPoint is here! Celebrate the birth of our Savior with us through stories, songs, and scripture.

We're used to hearing the Christmas story from Luke 2, with a complete cast of characters that includes the shepherds, angels, and Mary and Joseph. But there's another place in the Bible that tells us the story without the nativity. Join us as we read the familiar narrative and perhaps see the significance of Christmas from a new perspective. Learn three things it means for us as we approach this...

Paul has some strong words this week as we wrap up our series The Gospel Line. We'll focus on living out the line of generosity, but there's another word we need to understand first. Find out what that is and why it gives us no other option than to be generous once we grasp it.

When Jesus healed ten men with leprosy, only one chose what Jesus was really after. This Sunday, we'll look at the Gospel line of gratitude and how it can change us so completely. Learn what practicing gratitude leads to and some practical ways we can grow in this area.
