Woodburn Baptist Sermons

I've seen friendships strained, families split, even marriages end-not over the gospel, but over who someone voted for. Something's broken. But what if the cross can heal what political division destroys?

What do you do when someone you love deeply sees the world very differently-especially when it comes to sexuality and faith? This Sunday, we are leaning into one of the hardest questions Christians face today: How can I stay true to what I believe and still love my friend well? It's not about winning arguments. It's about following Jesus with both conviction and compassion.

Silence can feel terrifying-especially when it feels like God is the one who's gone quiet. But what if the silence isn't absence? What if it's an invitation? This Sunday, we are talking about "When Gods Seems Silent."

This Sunday we're talking about how the strongest man in the Bible wasted his strength and lost his way. If you've ever felt stuck, tired, or unsure of what your strength is for, the one's for you.

Revelation gives us a glimpse of eternity-God's face shining upon his people from every tribe and tongue gathered together. But what if we're not just waiting for heaven? What is we're called to live in its reality now.

Ever heard of Tabitha? Probably not. She's an ordinary woman who quietly changed her world. You may think you're unnoticed, but God never misses ordinary faithfulness.

People call Thomas "the doubter," but Jesus saw something more. This Sunday, we'll talk about what it means to be found by Jesus, known by his scars, and called to believe with your whole life. Because you're not what people call you. You're who Jesus knows you to be.

Matthew 28:1-10

Everyone loves Jesus on Sunday, when the crowd is cheering. But what happens on Friday, when the parade ends, the road narrows, and the cross comes into view?

Worship Pastor: Jason Logan

Ever start something with big energy but never finish? Jesus says following him can't be another thing you fizzle out on. Count the cost- you'll have to give everything. Still he gives more.

Ever felt like something's holding you back-even when you have it all? This Sunday, let's talk about the one thing keeping you from the life you're meant to live. It might cost you everything-but it's worth it.

Most of us avoid discomfort at all costs. But what if your greatest life was just beyond your greatest surrender? Letting go isn't loss; it's life. Come and explore what it really means to follow Jesus.

How long are you going to carry it? That grudge. That hurt. That thing they did that still plays in your mind. Joseph had every reason to stay bitter. But he didn't. What if you could do the same?

Stuck at a red light in life? Joseph spent two ears in prision, waiting for God to move. Turns out, God was moving all along. When it feels like nothing is happening, something always is.

Joseph had every reason to give in-nobody was watching, nobody would know. But he saw past the moment and ran from temptation. His story reminds us: every choice we make shapes who we are becoming.

Ever feel stuck in a pit? Like everything has fallen apart and God is nowhere to be found? That's how Joseph felt-betrayed and left for dead. Meanwhile, God was working it all into a plan, glorious beyond imagination.

Were you the favorite child or the sibling who definitely wasn't? Joseph is the spoiled and insufferable kind of brother that anybody would want to throw in a pit. But God's not finished with him yet. He's not finished with you either.

When was the last time you prayed like you meant it? Abraham got up in God's face. He pushed back. He prayed like it mattered-because it did. What if prayer isn't just mouthing polite words but literally wrangling with God?

Some of us let go of people easier than we let go of hurts and offenses. Forgiveness is hard, but what will you cling to-bitterness or belonging? This Sunday, we're talking about how to release the hurt and hold on to the ones who matter most.

What kind of friend are you? The kind who sticks closer than family-or the kind who disappears when times get tough? Join us this Sunday as we explore the radical, sacrificial loyalty of "ride-or-die" friendships.

The surgeon General says loneliness is as deadly as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. Self-sufficiency isolates us, but meaningful friendships bring connection and healing. This Sunday, we'll talk about how to step out of isolation and into community
