The sermon introduces a new series called “Practical Proverbs,” encouraging believers to read the Book of Proverbs and apply God’s wisdom to everyday life rather than living by feelings or impulse. Using Proverbs 4, the message teaches that godly wisdom is passed down through spiritual mentors, but each person must take personal responsibility for their devotion by listening to God’s Word, guarding their hearts, and being intentional about their actions, speech, and influences. Ultimately, believers are called to walk faithfully with God because living according to His wisdom leads to a blessed life now and prepares them to live as people of eternal life through Jesus.
In this sermon inspired by his book, In The King Is Coming, John Bevere discusses why the Second Coming is both relevant and critical for the Christian faith. Other than salvation, it's the second most discussed topic both in the New Testament and by early church fathers in the first three centuries.
In the last week of our Dollars and Sense series, Dave Ramsey challenges listeners to see how even a small increase in giving could eradicate domestic hunger, fund foster care adoptions, and dramatically impact individual lives, showing the massive difference generosity can make. He explains that God doesn’t ask us to give because He needs our money, but because giving reshapes our hearts to reflect His, with tithing as the baseline and offerings as acts of joyful, surplus generosity. Ultimately, he points to Bible truth—especially Gospel of John 3:16—that Jesus already paid our greatest debt, and that true financial peace flows from accepting that gift and living with open-handed, Christlike generosity.
In this “Dollars & Sense” message, Pastor Mike shifts from practical budgeting advice to a deeper spiritual question: Do you truly trust God, especially with your finances? Drawing on Jesus’ teachings and passages like Matthew 6 and James 2, he explains that obedience in areas like tithing, stewardship, and generosity is directly connected to faith and trust in God rather than just financial knowledge. He concludes that as believers build trust through God’s Word, prayer, and community, obedience becomes a natural response—and financial faithfulness flows from a heart that fully trusts the Lord.
This sermon, part two of the “Dollars & Sense” series, teaches that God cares deeply about how we handle money and that the basics—budgeting, getting out of debt, living on less than you make, saving, and giving—still work when practiced faithfully. Drawing from Scripture and practical principles (including Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace approach), it emphasizes that money is a tool, not a master, and that wise planning leads to peace and freedom. The message challenges listeners to trust God with their finances, commit to biblical habits, and experience joy and generosity as a result.
This sermon celebrates God’s faithfulness in 2025 by highlighting powerful stories of life change, growth, generosity, and mission at LifePoint Church, while expressing excitement and vision for what’s ahead in 2026. It emphasizes that every number represents God moving in people’s lives and calls the church to deeper discipleship, especially through biblical generosity and tithing. Ultimately, it challenges the congregation to respond with grateful, wholehearted obedience, trusting God with their hearts, resources, and future.
The sermon celebrates God’s faithfulness in 2025 and casts a clear vision for 2026, emphasizing that without God-given vision, people lose focus and fail to advance. It calls the church to write down and live out a simple, biblical vision centered on three priorities: embracing new beginnings, growing in deep discipleship, and living with God’s purpose. Ultimately, the purpose is to know God more fully and to make Him known by intentionally reaching “one more” person with the love of Jesus.
In Week 3 of the New Beginnings series, we asked the central question of Genesis 22: Will you lay it down? Through Abraham’s test and Jesus’ challenge to the rich young ruler, we saw that God often reveals our devotion by confronting what we love most, not to take it from us, but to ensure He remains first. The invitation is simple but costly: if anything stands in the way of fully following Jesus, will we trust Him enough to lay it down?
This sermon continues the New Beginnings series by calling the church to be open to what God wants to do for us and from us, emphasizing that God is always creating new life, purpose, and identity. Centered on the power of names, it teaches that God gives His people new names and identities—like forgiven, chosen, and beloved—while urging believers to reject false labels from the world or the enemy and embrace who God says they are. The message concludes with a strong call for 2026 to be a year of deeper discipleship, challenging everyone to live fully as devoted, obedient followers who reflect, imitate, and invite others to Jesus.
This sermon invites the church to begin the year with 21 Days of Fasting and Prayer, emphasizing that fasting is meant to deepen prayer, Bible reading, and focus on God as we seek new beginnings. It teaches that although God never changes, He is always doing something new, calling believers to trust Him for fresh faith, transformation, and miracles in their lives. Finally, it challenges each person to consecrate themselves to God by giving Him greater commitment through spiritual disciplines, church involvement, and obedience, believing He will do wonders in 2026.
This sermon teaches that just as we guard our valuables, we must intentionally guard our hearts because everything in our lives flows from them. Using Joseph’s story, it shows that a guarded heart allows God to use, form, and ultimately heal us—even through betrayal, hardship, and unfair seasons. The message calls believers to enter the new year with vigilance, forgiveness, and spiritual discipline, trusting that God can turn what was meant for harm into good.
This Christmas sermon celebrates the truth that God entered a chaotic and broken world through Jesus, offering Himself as the greatest gift to people who were once separated from Him. It proclaims that Jesus is Emmanuel—God with us—who came not only to save us from sin but to walk with us, restore relationship, and lovingly rule our lives. The message calls each person to receive God’s gift of salvation and respond by giving their whole life back to Him in worship and obedience.
This sermon celebrates the third week of Advent by focusing on the theme of joy, teaching that true joy is not based on circumstances but on God’s presence with us through Jesus Christ. It explains that Jesus’ birth brings “good news of great joy for all people” because He is our Savior, Messiah, and Lord, offering salvation, restored relationship with God, and a life surrendered to His loving rule.
This sermon emphasizes that true peace cannot be earned through our own goodness or religious effort but is found only in Jesus, the promised Prince of Peace. Using Simeon’s encounter with the infant Jesus in Luke 2, Pastor Mike highlights that real peace comes from knowing Christ personally—not from behavior, circumstances, or self-justification. Jesus brings peace for our past through forgiveness, peace in our present through His presence in life’s storms, and peace for our future through the assurance of eternal life. The message concludes by urging believers to seek God first, pray continually, and trust Him in order to walk in His lasting peace.
In Part 2 of this inspiring message entitled "Fresh Voices"—both staff and Dream Teamers—come together to share what Hope truly means in a life anchored in Christ. Through personal stories and biblical truth, each speaker paints a powerful picture of the kind of hope that doesn’t fade with circumstances but grows stronger through faith.
In Part 1 of this inspiring message entitled "Fresh Voices"—both staff and Dream Teamers—come together to share what Hope truly means in a life anchored in Christ. Through personal stories and biblical truth, each speaker paints a powerful picture of the kind of hope that doesn’t fade with circumstances but grows stronger through faith.
This sermon concludes a series on Nehemiah by emphasizing how Nehemiah stayed focused, prayerful, and committed while facing distractions, lies, and opposition, refusing to “come down” from the great work God gave him. It highlights the importance of finishing what we start for God, showing how Nehemiah’s completion of the wall led to long-term blessings, restored worship, renewed commitment, and future generations being strengthened. Ultimately, the message calls believers to be Kingdom Builders with Jesus—remaining faithful, resisting distractions, and building lives that honor God and bless others.
In week four of The Book of Nehemiah Series, Pastor Mike challenges the church to be true Kingdom Builders who stand up for what’s right, defend those being mistreated, and build every part of their lives around God’s Word. Nehemiah’s example shows how godly leaders confront injustice, lead with integrity, and choose generosity and sacrifice over personal privilege. The message concludes with a call for us, as believers, to live intentionally, give faithfully, and prayerfully pursue one more person who needs Jesus and His church.
This sermon challenges believers to be “Kingdom Builders” who pray, trust, and work faithfully for God’s mission, drawing inspiration from Nehemiah’s determination to rebuild Jerusalem despite opposition. Pastor Mike Burnette emphasizes that true Kingdom Builders respond to criticism and hardship with prayer, perseverance, and both spiritual and practical action, knowing that “God fights for us.” Finally, the message invites everyone in the church to take part in building God’s Kingdom—serving, giving, and leading—so that their names will be counted among those who helped build God’s Church rather than those who “sat it out.”
This sermon challenges believers to be “Kingdom Builders”—people who, like Nehemiah, respond to brokenness in the world with prayer, faith, and bold action to rebuild what’s been destroyed for God’s glory. Using Nehemiah 2 as a model, Pastor Mike Burnette teaches that Kingdom Builders must seek favor with God and people, stay faithful and proactive despite criticism or opposition, and take courageous steps to fulfill God’s calling. Ultimately, the message urges the church to work together to build God’s Kingdom through prayer, service, generosity, and steadfast focus on what God has placed in their hearts.
