Silver Creek Church

Sometimes we can be overwhelmed by the unnecessary and unwarranted grace of God that it can be hard to know how we should respond to Him at work in our lives! This morning we look to Scripture to help direct us on how to respond when we are recipients of God's blessings!

A memory is only that while we have the ability to recall it. The less time we spending reflecting on something, the harder it becomes to remember the exact details of it! This week we are challenged to remember who our God is and why He is God! David encourages us to do just that and through his words in Psalms we are reminded of the unfailing love of our God!

We are all guilty of making choices that have separated us from God and His will for our lives. At times, it can be hard to see the path of restoration, assuming we desire it. David is the perfect example to look at and see the desire that God has for restoration and proof that it's possible!

The thought of being led somehwere can at times make us feel weak or childish, but at the end of the day there will be something or someone that is calling for your time, attention and resources. That being said, who is leading your life? This week we take time talk about God as our shepherd - the one and only that should be leading our lives!

The Psalms have been a crucial foundation for many of us as we navigate life! They offer us comfort, peace, wisdom and a reminder of God's faithfulness. As we start this series, we look to the Psalms as a way to help us make choices, especially when we're unsure which way to go!

Brokenness is something we all experience. It's easy to feel like we should aim for a life of comfort and easy but when that's our focus, we may miss making a difference in the world around us. This morning we look to Scripture to see that our brokenness can be an opportunity for God to be glorified!

At times it can feel the more we add, the less effective we become at everything. The same can be said in the church if we're not careful! God has been leading us into new and exciting things as a church but we have to keep our focus on Him and the mission He has given us! That's why we may have 2 ministry locations but the mission is the same!

Sometimes it can seem like Great Commission is optional for those who aren't called into full time ministry or missions work, but it's far from a suggestion for those who follow Christ. The entire reason God sent Jesus to earth was to restore us to Himself and He involves us in the process for those who have yet to welcome Him into their lives! At the end of the day, we have a role to pl...

Mission is something we can easily forget about if we're not careful. At the end of the day, we have been given the assignment, the Great Commission, to make a difference in our world! As we walk with Christ, everything that God is doing in and through us should be contagious to others! People should be able to experience God's love and grace simply by coming in contact with us!

When it comes to patriotism and being grateful to be called an America, what does it mean when we say, "God bless America"? To understand the actual meaning of that phrase we have to look at what the blessing of God looks like! Thankfully, we can find that all throughout Scripture and can pray for the blessing of God, not man, over our nation, communities and families!

Dad's are meant to be the anchor of our families - the rock that provides stability for everyone. While that job can be tough at times, God empowers us as father's to do just that! This morning we look at a dad in Scripture who could have easily threw in the towel but instead continue to offer forgiveness, reconciliation and stability to someone who didn't deserve it!

Tough questions often require tough answers and while we are expected to answer them that way we also need to do so with love. One of the most polarizing issues of our world is that of sexuality and ultimately how God has created us to function within His model. We are called to speak the truth in love in all arenas, especially in this matter.

Nothing will disinterest someone from hearing anything you have to say with regards to Jesus quicker than the hypocrisy of Christians. We've all run to hypocritical Christ followers and if we're honest, we've all been guilty of it oursleves. How can we respond to such things we see in the body of Christ? This week we dive into Scripture to find that very answer.

The conversation of heaven and hell is a challenging one, full of faith and belief that God and Scripture are exactly who they each say they are. The confidence of a promise of Heaven still leaves us with tough questions like, "If heaven really exists, why would God still send people to hell?" We've likely all asked ourselves that very question and this morning we dig further into t...

Questions are part of life and it's proof we're trying to make sense of it all. The real challenge is when we don't get answers to the questions we have and living with the reality that we may never fully understand. Just like as parents, we see the full picture when we give our kids an answer they don't like, or no real answer at all, we have to trust God that He does in fact...

Sharing our faith with others is a crucial part of our duty as Christ's followers but what if we don't feel like we know the answers to the questions we'll encounter? How can we point people in the right direction when we're not always sure of ourselves? This morning we begin our "Tough Questions" series with looking at some undeniable proof of not only the existence...

Our praise isn't meant to be quiet - if we can cheer like crazy at a sports game, we can be loud for our God! As we conclude our More Than a Song series, we look at Scripture and are encouraged to come out of our comfort zone when we worship!

We are instructed to praise our God because He is worthy of it, but we also receive something when we take time to praise Him! The air in the situation we are facing changes when we take time to worship God in the midst of it. This morning we will be challenged to redefine praise in our lives!

This morning we continue to look a few more crucial elements of our worship as Christ followers and are challenged from Scripture to realize that our worship is to be internal and external! We ought to be willing to worship God in all circumstances for what he's done for us through salvation!

Typically we think of worship as being quiet, dignified and put together, but Scripture paints a different picture of how we ought to praise God! This morning we look at one of the Hebrew words to describe worship and look at how that picture may change our understanding of how we engage in worship in our lives!

In Luke 19 we see the triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem just days before His death on the cross. A point that can be glossed over at this point in the story of salvation is that Jesus knew what was to come. He knew what He was doing, that He was fulfilling 500 year old prophecies, that the people didn't understand what was happing, that He was worthy to be worshipped and ultimately that...

Every great accomplishment or victory starts with a moment. It's a moment of no return and sets the wheels in motion for what will one day happen. David recognized the moment even as a young boy that laid the groundwork for what God was going to do through him and his leadership. As for us, our time is now!

The biggest and most incredible of outcomes begin with the smallest of actions. Just like something as small as a spark can alter the lives and futures of many, so can the 'small' things we allow God to do in our lives. The "domino" of purchasing a building can lead to so much more that we can do with God's help in our neighborhood, community and city! If we allow what God...

When we are part of something bigger than ourselves, we have a role to play! One thing is certain - God has not called us to be observers! When Nehemiah received authorization [and the blessing] to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem, he didn't just show up and boss people around, he got to work! As we move into what God has for us as a church, we have a role to play!

March is more than a new month — it’s a turning point. As we prepare to close on the Family Dollar property and launch the next phase of the Domino Effect, we’re beginning a brand-new series called “It Starts Here.” Join us this March for this four-week journey as the first domino falls, and we step boldly into what God is building through us.
