Sermons - The Village Church

In response to the Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade, we celebrated the protection of life with a deep sense of sobriety. The work to care for women, children, and families continues to be a space where God calls His Church to enter into as salt and light.

In a flyover view of the book of Ecclesiastes, we see our lives as short and good and that we should live in preparation to meet our God. The time is now to live wisely and well.

If we bring our first and best to something other than God, we bring an offering to something unable to sustain our worship. We have worshiped at weak altars. Yet God pleads with us to return, seek first His kingdom, and steward well the resources each of us has been given.

There is a defiant joy and bend towards celebration by which the people of God are meant to be marked. While the church is messy and life increasingly complicated, God is still accomplishing amazing work among His people. This is a cause for celebration!

There are moments when the brokenness becomes so vivid it wakes us to see our world for what it is. Let us lift our heads and turn our eyes to our Lord, our only real hope.

Our money can put us on a treadmill with a goal we will never reach. Material wealth and status lose their luster, leaving us wanting more. Christ is the “more” for which our hearts are longing.

Jesus is not anti-wealth, but He knows that money makes for a worthless god. Jesus is not coming after our money but our hearts.

God is redeeming, renewing, and restoring every tribe, tongue, and nation on earth, and we find ourselves in the middle of the story.

God is at work around the world today. Lift up your eyes. The harvest is here.

Our days have been numbered, our God is trustworthy, and Jesus has dealt with our shame.

The resurrection of Jesus Christ is a means of celebration for the believer and an invitation for the unbeliever.

Christian leaders live out the power of the gospel and demonstrate its validity by faithfully pursuing Christ in the face of opposition.

Believers should not be surprised by suffering but should instead rejoice in future hope, remember why we suffer, and rely on our faithful and sovereign God.

Christian hope is an active mindset that works to restore true humanity, is lived in dependence upon God, and compels us to a faithful presence.

The people of God endure suffering with the hope of final victory as the inheritance of Christ pulls them ever forward.

Christian relationships are to be marked by mutual submission in light of the gospel.

When we bear unjust wounds without sinning in our speech, we display Christ to a watching world.

Christians are to graciously submit to authority for the Lord’s sake, as keeping honorable conduct shouts the gospel even when we are silenced.

We have been chosen and redeemed by the grace of God to live holy lives with one another as witnesses to a broken world.

The people of God stand in grace as the gospel calls them to both action and love.

Peter’s first letter calls its readers to a living hope while encouraging them to steward their suffering and orient their lives around future glory.

We are caught up in the story God is writing, and we’ve been given power to be His witnesses to the ends of the earth.

John Stonestreet, President of the Colson Center for Christian Worldview, encourages us to have hope that Jesus is Lord as we engage this cultural moment.

God’s plan is to create a community of people who would reflect His glory, wisdom, and moral beauty to the world.

Human beings have been made distinct from the rest of creation, which makes the value of any human life immeasurable.
