Tulip Street Christian Church

Can we be honest with God about our negative emotions? How can worship be part of the healing process when we are in seasons of depression, anxiety, or spiritual wilderness? What role does our own self-talk play in our relationship with God? We take a look at these questions and more this week as we think through Psalms 42-43.

In this week's message, we focus on Psalm 34. It's a beautiful song of praise that emphasizes God's goodness and his salvation for those who seek him. tulipstreet.com/nextsteps

Confession is easy to talk about, harder to put into practice. This week we look at the framework for confession in Psalm 51 which David wrote after being called out for his sin again Bathsheba and Uriah. tulipstreet.com/nextsteps

Continuing our series "Psalms of Summer," this week we take a look at Psalm 139. We discover some core truths about ourselves and our relationship to God. And we will see how true worship requires vulnerability, honesty, and openness about ourselves. tulipstreet.com/nextsteps

This week we take a look at Psalm 46, which invites us to meditate on God's Protection, Promise, and Peace. tulipstreet.com/nextsteps

This week we take an in depth look at Psalm 8. The author marvels at both the wonders of Creation and the fact that the Creator of it all cares so much for us. We will see Five Impossible Things which this Psalm calls us to believe. tulipstreet.com/nextsteps

Josh Elliott, our youth pastor, kicks off our summer sermon series, "Psalms of Summer." For this opening week we'll focus on Psalm 1, an introductory Psalm to the whole book. We'll see what Psalm 1 can tell us about life, worship, and Jesus. www.tulipstreet.com/nextsteps Psalm 1, by Poor Bishop Hooper // https://youtu.be/FVy6M1gWNmo

As we conclude the series "Made for Each Other," we take a look at the command to carry one another's burdens. In this sermon we take an honest look at the prevalence of domestic violence and abuse in our county. We also see how we as a church can help be part of the solution. www.tulipstreet.com/nextsteps For sermon notes and source links: https://my.bible.com/events/49084042

This week we take a look at the four major warning signs that a relationship is in trouble, called The Four Horsemen by Dr. Gottman and The Gottman Institute. They are Criticism, Contempt, Defensiveness, and Stonewalling. We'll learn what they are, how to spot them, and the antidotes - all rooted in biblical principles. Read more about them here. www.tulipstreet.com/nextsteps

This week we look at the differences between men and women, but we also see how men and women are more alike than we might think. At the end of the day we all want the same thing - to be loved, known, respected, valued, and honored. The challenge for us is to live as New Creation people in a Genesis 3 world. tulipstreet.com/nextsteps

This week we take a look at the concept of Found Family, or Family of Choice. We see how biological families and nuclear families might not be the highest calling in the human experience, at least according to Jesus and Paul. And we'll see how there is a much needed place for singles in our churches, not just families. *Daniel does misspeak at one point, saying Barabbas instead of Barnabas. Oo...

Lesson 02 in the series Made For Each Other. We take a look at the "Household Codes" as recorded in Ephesians 5-6. We'll see what it means to submit to one another, and realize how Paul reframes every relationship around Christ. Ultimately, Christ is the head of the household and the one who shows us what it's like to be the best spouse/parent/child we can be.

This is the first lesson in our sermon series "Made for Each Other." With this introduction, we'll see how we can focus on the right things in our relationships so that we can truly learn to love one another. Let's focus on Grace over Grudges, Empowerment over Entrapment, and Intimacy over Ignorage. tulipstreet.com/nextsteps

This post-Easter chapter (John 21) brings us to the conclusion of our series through the Gospel of John, "Close Encounters with Christ." We see how life goes on, and what things were like for the disciples in the aftermath of the greatest moment in human history. And we also overhear one of the most important conversations in history when Jesus forgives and restores Peter after his denia...

For our Easter Sermon we walk through John chapter 20, continuing our series "Close Encounters with Christ." We see Mary Magdalene, the Disciples, and Thomas witness and experience the risen Christ. Jesus' resurrection changes everything, but it depends on who you're looking for.

For the Sunday before Easter, Daniel leads us on a journey recapping the book of John, transporting us into the story of Jesus' crucifixion and burial. tulipstreet.com/nextsteps

Darrin Chastain, one of the Tulip Street Elders, fills in and walks us through Jesus' arrest, Peter's denials, and the trial/questioning in John 18. tulipstreet.com/nextsteps

The Allens have been a beloved family in the Mitchell community for many years. In September 2021, Kim Allen tested positive for COVID-19 and within a week was fighting for her life. After being told she had a mere 5% chance of survival, she and Jon joined us this week (a year and half later) to share their amazing testimony of God's work in bringing healing and strength to a near hopeless situati...
