StoneBridge Church Sermon of the Week

It is not enough to know the Truth, we must live out the Truth that we know. God is concerned about our hearts, but our actions should reflect what is in our hearts. If the Truth is in there, it ought to be coming out in the way we live.

Jesus wants us to cast our cares and anxieties on Him. We do this by humbling ourselves before Him, praying, and turning our focus from our problems to the One who is the Answer.

Making a transition from one thing to another can be difficult, but if we keep looking to Jesus He will provide us with all we need to make the change.

Making a transition from one thing to another can be difficult, but if we keep looking to Jesus He will provide us with all we need to make the change.

When we try to do things in our own strength, things will eventually fall apart and we will not be useful. When we trust in God's strength, He will hold all things together and will be able to use us.

Relationships are at the heart of life. What can we do to ensure that we are living in peace with everyone?

When we are neglecting God's plans for our lives, He will often frustrate our plans to get our attention and turn our focus back to Him.

God isn't interested in doing business with you, He wants to be in a relationship with you. When we negotiate with God we fail to realize that everything we already have is his.

We all have a Mara in our lives (someone who has become bitter from their circumstances). If we reach out to them in love and devotion, God will orchestrate things so we can introduce them to the One who redeems.

We are all headed for Judgment. The question is whether we want to be judged based on what is written in the book of our life or the Book of Jesus' Life.

The Great Prostitute described in Revelations 16-19 represents the End Time anti-Christian Kingdom. What we will see in the End Times will differ only in scope and intensity from what we experience now. We must learn to engage with Jesus to combat the pull towards the worldly values of politics, lukewarm religion, and economics.

We need the Holy Spirit to live the Christian life. The Holy Spirit seals us through tribulations, confirms Truth in our Spirit to keep us from being deceived, strengthens us to stand firm, and empowers us to do the work of ministry and evangelism.

It is important to be able to identify deception. Satan's strategy is to get us to believe anything other than the Gospel. As we become firmly planted in the Truth, and know the voice of God, we will be able to distinguish Truth from the lies.

We don't want to be people with no roots. We are to be firmly planted in the love of God so that when tribulations come, we can stand firm to the end.

When we understand that God is a God who not only wants us, but pursues us with relentless love, it transforms our lives and fuels our passion to seek Him.

We don't know the day or the hour when Jesus is coming back, we just know He IS coming. What can we do to prepare and be ready?

Jesus did signs and wonders that point us to who He is. When we follow the signs, we come to know Him more as the Source of every good thing.

The greatest commandment is to love God and to love people. This also the most difficult commandment.

God uses prayer not only to change us, but also to change our community. Prayer is less a sharing of information and more of an invitation to action.

Learning to worship God regularly helps us maintain a life "curved around the Lord."

One of the most common hindrances to becoming more like Jesus is a lack of alignment with God's purposes in our lives.

Giving is one of the tools we give to the Potter in order to form us into the image of Jesus.

There is a special place in God's heart for the poor and we have a responsibility to demonstrate that love in our community.

God is determined to conform us into the image of Jesus. The question for us is: are we willing to be molded?

God has an overarching ideal for every person He has created- to be conformed into the image of Jesus.
