Through Jesus, we see the ultimate expression of love, a love that redeems, restores, and never fails. Watch now to discover how His love changes everything and how we are called to share that love with the world!

This is a short sermon from our special Christmas service called, Gloria. GLORIA (Christmas at Woodland) is a special program in lieu of our normal Sunday services at both 9 & 11AM. This program combines a multi-generational choir from within and outside of Woodland, orchestral members from the Sarasota Music Conservatory, WFA dance ensembles, soloists', a small drama team, and various video e...

“Do you see what I see? In this Advent series, we focus on Hope—the kind of hope that transforms seasons of hopelessness into joy and peace. Through Jesus, we find righteousness, salvation, and eternal life. Discover how to place your hope in Him and experience the encouragement and strength only He can provide. Watch now and be reminded: our hope is secure in Christ!”

We find our hope in what God says (49). We are comforted in suffering and our life is preserved because we remember what God says (50,52). People will ridicule (mock) me for living according to God’s Word instead of the words of people in the world (51). It displeases me when the wicked don’t follow God’s Word (53). God’s Word puts a song in our hearts (54). I need to remember God when things are...

I need to learn (teach me) (33). I need to understand (34). I need direction (35). I need live selflessly and not selfishly (36). I need to know what is of value. It makes my life worth living (preserve) (37). We believe that God will make good on what He says (38). My life is about what is doing right (40). We are saved because of God’s unfailing love (41). I can answer the one who taunts me by s...

We need to open our eyes and see that our being alive depends on Him (17). I open my eyes so I can see the wonderful life he has for me described in His Word (18). I see that I am a stranger on this earth (19). Our spirit longs to hear from Him at all times (20). We are arrogant if we think we can live differently from what He says and He rebukes us for it (21-22). We don’t care what others say ab...

His Word guides our walk (vs.1). He is the one we seek who is at the end of the road (vs.2,10). We follow the precepts that are laid down for us (vs.4). We walk this path consistently (steadfast) (vs.5). We have nothing to be ashamed of (vs.6). Our heart is in the condition to praise Him (vs.7,12). It keeps us pure (vs.9). We keep his word in our heart and remember it to remind us not to sin (vs.1...

I Pray. I ask = petition (vs. 6). I don’t have anxiety because I know He is with me an will help me. I thank. I know that God is up to something and that He is growing me through my circumstances. I have peace. I have transcending peace. (7). My peace comes from understanding. He’s developing me. I keep peace by guarding my heart. I guard it from lies and deception. I think. (8) I think like Jesus...

The Goal is to not waist the gift.  I become like him. I am humble. I hunger for perfection. I hold on and I let go. When I hold on I become a fully devoted follower of Christ. I need to let go of the past that is keeping me from taking the love of God (the ball) and moving forward. I must move past my past. I have a plan. It’s a plan to spend my time wisely. It’s a correction plan. To correct are...

1. I must protect myself from being “all that” – bringing attention to myself rather than to God. I need to lose confidence in self – that I am enough alone. I am to gain confidence in God. 2. I am to be pumped. I am to be pumped up about what God is doing and rejoice in what He is up to. It keeps me safe by keeping me humble. It gives us a base line. It keeps things in order. He is always to be b...

We need “always” obedience. Don’t live for face value – living to be attractive, appealing and acceptable. Live for value value – live to add value to others by helping them gain a relationship with God and to help it grow once it’s begun. We need a good work-out plan. The fear plan is to be disciplined to listen and to talk. The trembling plan is to think about what will happen if we don’t become...

We experience “whole” joy. We have the same love. We have the same spirit. We have the same purpose. We have the same mind. We have the right ambition. It’s the “You First” ambition. We become copy cats. We’re the Xerox, not the original. We live to invest in, not to be invested in. 

We are to pray for our partners who also share good news. That they share good news. That they change from the inside out. That they become good news. We are to share the love. Our passion leads to compassion which leads to action. We are to live the clear life. It is clear that we are committed. It is clear that we are encouragers.

This is our last week of our message series, "The Difference Maker - Lessons from the Life of Moses." This week we learn about the Expectation.

Exodus 13-14 We need a guide. ( 13:21 ) God is our guide. 2. He guides us along a path. ( 13:17 -18) 3. God uses what we can see to guide us. ( 13:21 ) 4. He is always to be in front of us. ( 13:22 ) 5. We must trust Him as we travel His path. ( 14:10 ) 6. We need people to encourage us in our time of doubt. ( 14:13 ) 7. We need people who are obedient to do what He instructs them to do. ( 14:15 -...

We must be willing to let go of what is keeping us from doing what is right. We let go of what is keeping us from living for God. We remember that we have been redeemed. A Message on Exodus 12-13.

Our hearts are hardened when it doesn’t have what it needs to be softened. Our hearts are hardening when we begin caring more about how we’re treated than in doing what is right. Our hearts must be broken before they are softened. Our hearts are broken when we lose what is important to us.
