Silver Creek Church

Join us as we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ this Easter Sunday! The church building may be empty this morning but so is the tomb! In our world today we are desperately in need of hope - it just so happens that hope has a name and His name is Jesus! Feel free to share this with a friend to invite them to join you in church online this morning. Happy Easter! New at Silver Creek? - https...

There aren't any earthly kings that experienced the path to kingship that Jesus did. He was proclaimed a King hundreds of years before His birth and then He was born a King! He was celebrated as King and then He was convicted for being a King! The people who had Jesus crucified did so in calling Him the "King of the Jews". His kingship was true, even though it didn't look like...

In a time where it's tempting to only look out for ourselves and what we have, we are in need more than ever of a church that looks beyond its doors for opportunities to be generous. In order to be an outward focused church we have to make a choice to be magnanimous - intentionally generous to those less "powerful" than ourselves. Pastor Kevin shares some important things that we mu...

As we continue to focus on how we can continue to be an Outward church, this morning we look at our need for multiplication. To see a multiplication of what God is doing in our own lives, it will take us out of our comfort zone and challenge our faith but it will be worth it! When we multiply, it gives us an increased chance to change our world!

Ministry at its heart means to serve. As Christ followers we are called to serve others as Jesus did. It doesn't mean it will always be easy or appreciated but if we are to think Outward, beyond the doors of the church, we have to think about those who are not yet here. Our prayer is that we are all challenged to take a step and serve those around us with the purpose of showing them the love...

As we look outward, beyond the walls of the church, it's important for us to experience some personal growth and maturing. This morning, Pastor Kevin looks at some of the incredible benefits of growing alongside other Christ followers. We believe that Connect Groups and things like them are important keys to our our spiritual growth!

As we conclude our February series, we look at the importance of growth in our lives as we strive to make an impact in our families, place of work and our world. Without growth, our sphere of influence and our potential for impact is severely deterred. The idea of growth can be scary but it is in fact a prerequisite for the impact we hope to have in our lives!

If we're hoping to have an Impact for God it's safe to say that we have to indeed be committed to what He's calling for us to do! Commitment starts in the heart and is the foundation for forward movement in our lives. Today we are challenged to live a life that is committed and engaged in what God has for each of us!

If we're hoping to make an impact on something or in a situation, it's easy to assume that we first must be open and available to doing what it takes to make that impact. If we really want to be used by God, we have to be willing to experience all that may come our way as a result. Today we look at some encouragement that is beneficial when we're looking to make an impact for the Ki...

Today we begin our series looking at areas in our lives that we must pay special attention to if we are to make an impact in our world. Sometimes it's easy to forget that our physical, emotional and relational health go hand in hand with the impact that God has for us to make in our spheres. Pastor Kevin provides encouragement from Scripture regarding these crucial areas of our lives!

David spent most of his life in the wilderness, but he also spent a great deal of time experiencing the loneliness, anxiety and fear that comes from "the wilderness". This week we look at 3 things that David did during his wilderness experiences that can and will benefit us during our own. We should be encouraged by what the story of David can teach us!

Today we look at a time when Jesus was physically in the wilderness and found Himself being tempted by Satan. From this account we can see there are times when God will lead us into the wilderness but it's for the purpose of His ultimate plan for our lives. Jesus was tempted in this place of barrenness but He clung to the words of Scripture to help Him through it. We can be encouraged by the...

This morning we continue to look at the life of Moses, we see 5 things that we will all learn when we are in the middle of those wilderness times in our lives. The important thing to remember is this - whatever you are facing in front of you and whatever is behind you, you are not alone. Just as God did with the Israelites, He will go before us as He guides us through the wilderness!

There are times we find ourselves in a place resembling the wilderness and we're not sure how we got there or what we're doing there. Often times though, it's in those times that God is preparing us for some extraordinary. This morning we look at the story of Moses and the literal and figurative wilderness he found himself in and how God was using that time to prepare him for God&#0...

There are many arguments that people have tired to make over the centuries since Jesus' life that say He wasn't exactly who He said He was. They have tried to say the fulfillment of prophecies through His life were just a coincidence or that Scripture had been falsified or that Jesus intentionally made choices and decisions to fulfill Old Testament words about the Messiah. At the end of...

The story of Jesus' birth as celebrated at Christmas can bring up a number of questions or doubts in our hearts and minds. There is however, a great deal of proof from a historical perspective that shows us the validity of the Scripture account of Jesus' birth. While our faith in God is just that, faith, we can add these verifiable facts to what we what hold as truths as Christ followers...

As we continue to look at the scientific proof of the birth of Jesus, this morning Pastor Kevin looks at the archeological evidence that can be seen throughout history that helps corroborate what we read in Scripture. While it is thought that what can be found through archeology cannot prove or disprove spiritual truths, we do see that it can help to determine the validity of the facts that go to...

As we begin our series called "Believe", we're looking at the evidence of Jesus' birth - born to the virgin Mary just as Scripture said he did! Just because we aren't able to verify how it happened with our own eyes doesn't mean that it did not in fact pass The Eye Test from the historical witnesses that have verified what we read in Scripture!

Pastor Kevin continues this morning, giving us a few more Words to Live by from the book of Proverbs! Some of the most important words we can apply to our lives aren't that enjoyable, but they serve a greater purpose if we will let them!

The book of Proverbs as a whole is written much like a conversation between a father and son. As a father would give his son specific advice to live by, this morning we discuss a few of those important important words that we can all live by or that we should avoid all together!

As we continue to look at the words of Proverbs, this morning we look to answer a simple question - what's the difference between wisdom and folly? There are times in life where things that are wise seem foolish and others where thins that are foolish seem wise, so how can we tell them apart? Pastor Kevin compares the two and encourages us to weigh them in our own lives!

This morning we begin our November series called "Foolproof". Throughout the month we will look at the book of Proverbs and all it has for us with regards to wisdom. Pastor Kevin starts us off by looking at how wisdom is found and kept in the person of Jesus Christ. If we want wisdom, we must have a personal relationship with the one who holds it!

This morning we welcome a very special guest speaker as we conclude our Crucial Conversations series. Diane De La Santos is the Executive Director of City on a Hill in Milwaukee, WI. City on a Hill exists to save the children, reach the parents and change the city of Milwaukee! Diane shares the importance of listening to the still, small voice of God as He speaks to us on a daily basis and the ete...

Many of us know the story of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego and the fiery furnace but today we are challenged by the Crucial Conversation they had with King Nebuchadnezzar. They had every opportunity to abandon their convictions in favor of their own lives but they didn't do it! In fact, their crucial conversation with the king led to incredible changes for the people of Babylon!

As we look at Crucial Conversations, Pastor Kevin looks at the story of Jesus and Nicodemus in John 3. Nicodemus was in the Valley of Decision himself - even though he was a Pharisee, he was at a point where he was believing in who Jesus said He was! We should be ready when we encounter people who are looking for hope in their lives and are waiting for someone to introduce them to the love of Jesu...
