If you ever wrestle with doubt, you're not alone. And Satan knows doubt is the sweet spot for turning people away from God. Since we know it's coming, how do we fight it? In today's message, Pastor Chuck shares from Scripture just the piece of armor needed to deflect doubt and maintain a strong faith.
Ever feel like you're distracted by things that don't matter? You're fighting some of the same battles over and over again and you're getting nowhere? Satan's like that. As we continue to armor up, Pastor Chuck suggests it's our footwear that will prepare us to fight against and for the things that really matter.
Plain and simple, Satan wants to attack your heart, hit your vital organs, right where it counts, and there is only one thing you can do about it. Pastor Chuck continues to help us assemble our armor to protect us from the attacks of evil, and this one involves the indispensable work of restoring our relationship with God through Jesus.
No one is immune from facing attacks. It's not if, but when. Fear, doubt, anxiety can overwhelm, take you to the brink of losing all faith in God. It's a good thing that, in advance, God gives us everything need to prepare for these attacks: it's called "The Armor of God." Over the next month, Pastor Chuck is going to break it down piece by piece beginning with the singular piece that hold's it all together--and holds you together: the belt of TRUTH.
There's a stench throughout our culture--not just churches, everywhere! Hypocrisy. People are quick to call it out in others to distract from the hypocrisy that fills their heart. This week Pastor Chuck challenges us to be real, clean up, and bring life to yourself and those around you. You may even smell better in the process. (Pastor Chuck will explain.)
Jesus' seven "woes" in Matthew 23 cut through the surface to the heart of the matter. In today's "woe," Jesus challenges people who appear to be living a near perfect life while, inside, they are spiritually dead. Pastor Chuck challenges us to look inside ourselves, giving us simple steps to come alive inside.
"Don't judge a book by its cover." That usually implies there's something better on the inside. Jesus, on the other hand, is concerned that there's something worse happening inside us. Pastor Chuck addresses the next of Jesus' "woes," challenging us to get our hearts right...which changes EVERYTHING.
From schools to sports teams, businesses to non-profits, everyone seems to be asking for donations. With so many opportunities to give, our big questions tend to be "To whom?" or "How much?" Pastor Chuck challenges us with a practical lesson of how Jesus wants to transform the motivation behind our giving.
In our attempt to do good things, might we actually be keeping people away from Jesus? Pastor Chuck explains how Jesus wants to open our eyes to what He is actually doing right in front of us.
Though Christians intend to invite people to follow Jesus, we sometimes actually invite people follow us--our convictions and our rules--and, as a result, we push them either further away. In today's message, Pastor Chuck challenges us to love people to Jesus and let the Holy Spirit do the convicting.
For whatever reason, there is a human tendency to shut things out: Jesus, others, even ourselves from greater possibilities. What if we were more open? In the first message of the "WOE, BRO!" series that explores the 7 woes of Jesus in Matthew 23, Pastor Chuck challenges us to see the life-changing potential of opening ourselves and our church to Jesus and to others.
Maybe you've heard of the Lord's Prayer. Maybe you've prayed it but really don't know what to do with it. In today's sermon Pastor Alex explains that this prayer is more than something we recite, but it changes our appearance by showing us how to live each day in relationship to God and others.
You're here for a reason. Pastor Alex offers a challenge for all people that your changed life--your elevated appearance from looking like you did to more like Jesus--is your NEW story to tell they world that they may be saved.
How we respond to Jesus showing up in our lives matters. Do we expect Him to show up? And even if He did, are we prepared to even listen to Him? Pastor Chuck challenges us this Sunday to be prepared to listen and take on any task Jesus calls us to.
Peace seems to evade us all, but it might be easier to find than we think. Pastor Chuck suggests that changing what we believe about Jesus is a source of the peace you've been missing.
Sometimes what you expect out of an experience is what you wind up getting. In today's sermon, Pastor Chuck suggests that if we look for hope, especially Jesus, we will find it.
Following His death and resurrection, Jesus made multiple, important appearances to His disciples before leaving earth. In today's message, Pastor Chuck explains the importance of moving into the tougher spiritual conversations that reveal Jesus to others.
Who doesn't want freedom, right? Easter, in the resurrected Jesus, offers the gift of salvation! So then what? Pastor Beau suggests the journey is far from over, and the only way to fully experience the freedom salvation offers is to become, of all things, a slave.
Amidst a celebration of singing and 20 baptisms, Pastor Chuck invites everyone to celebrate Jesus' resurrection by giving our lives to Him.
In healing a blind man as another sign that Jesus is the Messiah, Pastor Chuck points out how this reveals some of our own blind spots.
