Woodbury Church of Christ Sermons

7/8/18   Many bad decisions have been made because we were trapped in a false either/or dilemma. "Either I lie or hurt this relationship". "Either I date this person or wind up lonely". "Either the Bible is true or science is right."  Jesus was constantly confronted with false either/or dilemmas. He shows us a way to see clearly even when we're limited by small thoughts. 

7/1/18   Anyone who has wrestled with their own thoughts knows that our minds aren't aren't always on our side. If you've struggled with your thoughts you've probably wished your brain could be exchange for a newer model. Scriptures give us hope that we can actually renew our minds!

6/24/18   Why do we get so stuck in our thinking? We do we worry about things we can't control? Why do we obsesess over what other people think about us. Maybe it's because our minds are quite "set" right. Learn how to reset your mind and be transformed in the process. 

6/17/18   What if the reality that we see all around us is not the ultimate reality?

6/10/18   What is the difference between the mind of Christ and your mind? As a disciple of Jesus, we are told to have the same mind in us that is in Christ Jesus.

6/3/18   We don't always get to see a comprehensive view of what our church family is producing. Senior Sunday gives us a chance to take stock and see how our investments in one another are paying off. 

5/27/18   We experience injustice in all kinds of ways. We wonder if there is justice for us. Does God care about things being set right in our lives? Is He going to do something about all the injustice in the world? The good news is God has a heart for justice but he expects his followers to go about the work of establish justice in the world. 

5/20/18   Why doesn't God make our lives easy? Aren't we supposed to be happy as Christians?

5/13/18   IF God cares THEN shouldn't life be easier? 

5/6/18   How do we stand firm in the face of people actively trying to undermine our faith? The answer may surprise you.

4/29/18   Sometimes passages can be hard to understand because they do not fit our situations. Jordan tries to help with one of those passages.

4/22/18   It is incredibly meaningful when somebody describes who you are. It is even more meaningful when God does this.

4/8/18   Is grace something that we experience now or something that we will receive in the future? How do we live in light of grace?

4/1/18   Jesus best habit, the focus of his entire ministry, was on redeeming people. He continues to do this today.

3/25/18   Jesus was a good teacher, and he commissioned his disciples to teach as well. How can we go about doing this?

3/18/18   We talk about being hospitable as an important practice a lot, but Jesus had a habit of receiving hospitality. In what ways could this practice be beneficial for us?

3/11/18   Repeatedly in the Gospels, Jesus would find a place to be alone with God and pray. What could it mean for us if we did the same?

3/4/18   The book of 1 Peter deals with the idea that we are strangers in the world. What does this mean for disciples?

2/25/18   Whom shall I send? Who will go for me?   Here am I. Send me!

2/18/17   Sometimes the solution is not to avoid the fire, but to walk right into it. Dale takes a look at how God may be calling us to do just that. 

2/4/18   What is God like? Jesus answers that question in Luke 15.

1/28/17   Some of the people Jesus encountered were attracted to him, and some of them were frustrated with him. What do the people in these groups have in common?

1/21/18   Paul had the opportunity to get the crowd on his side, and instead he shares his story. Some stories just have to be told. What would it take for our stories to be worth telling?

1/14/18   How much pressure do we put on ourselves when it comes to evangelization? Could it be that we expect more of ourselves than God does? What if most of the work is already done before us?
