Stay Rooted in your faith Mont Belvieu! Paul asks the Colossians to continue living their lives in Jesus. This is a challenge for today's church as much as it was for them. When thinking about a brand new year, what do you want for your life? Do you want to have a closer relationship with Jesus? What are you willing to do to get that? God shows us throughout scripture that he always stands with open arms waiting on the arrival of the sinner who repents. Are you willing to come back to him? In Matthew's gospel, Jesus talks about building a foundation on the sand or the rock. One foundation is firm while the other is easily swept away to sea. Jesus said the rains will come either way, but you have to pick a foundation for your life. ScripturesColossians 2:6-15Matthew 7:24-27Psalm 136:1-11, 23-26Websitehttps://www.eaglechurchofchrist.comTake Action!Write out your spiritual goals for 2022.

Rest

2022-01-2525:10

This week at the Eagle Community Church of Christ in Mont Belvieu, TX, John Gunter talks about the importance of getting rest and viewing the Sabbath the way Jesus viewed it. We are all probably way too busy. The culture in the United States is one of working hard all the time. This shows up in the average hours per year we work compared to other countries. It also shows up in just how few vacation days we normally get, and how we often do not take all of the days we are given. John challenges the church to give some time back to God in an unapologetic time of rest, while thanking God for his gift, and relinquishing our perceived control on our lives. ScripturesLuke 6:1-10Mark 2:23-28Exodus 20:8-11Exodus 31:13, 16Exodus 34:21ResourcesAverage annual hours worked per year per workerUSA behind in paid time off. Every EU country has at least 4 weeks of paid vacationWe leave a lot of paid time off on the tableWhy Germans have longer vacation times and more productivity (2010 article)Websitehttps://www.eaglechurchofchrist.comhttps://www.facebook.com/EagleCommunityChurchofChristRead Scripture with us this year!https://www.readscripture.org/

Rest: Part 2

2022-02-0230:16

In this sermon at the Eagle Community Church of Christ in Mont Belvieu, TX, John Gunter talks about the relationship between work/rest, and how we must be intentional about getting the rest we need. For the second week, we talk about Jesus' interaction with the Pharisees concerning what could/could not be done on the Sabbath, and how Jesus reminded the Pharisees of when David ate the consecrated bread meant only for priests. This lesson is important for us to understand the importance of rest, and also it is important to help us understand how to interpret the Bible more faithfully.

Rest: Part 3

2022-02-0734:51

This is a sermon from the Eagle Community Church of Christ in Mont Belvieu, TX. John Gunter finishes his 3-part series on #Rest , by talking about having healthy rhythms in our Christian lives. Sabbath was part of the rhythm given by God to the Israelite people, and rest should be incorporated into our lives, so we might have more time given to God and away from the distractions coming at us every day. Episode ResourcesBook- For this sermon, John has read and recommends Peter Scazzero's book "Emotionally Healthy Spirituality." You can find that book here: https://smile.amazon.com/Emotionally-Healthy-Spirituality-Impossible-Spiritually/dp/0310348498/ref=sr_1_3?crid=2J59CNGZHE8HD&keywords=peter+scazzero+s+emotionally+healthy+spirituality&qid=1644188432&sprefix=Peter+Scaz%2Caps%2C182&sr=8-3ScripturesExodus 20:8-11Matthew 16:26YouTube video of this sermon: https://youtu.be/47iKsiOoYSoChurch Website: https://www.eaglechurchofchrist.comFacebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/eaglecommunitychurchofchrist

Jesus Was Tempted Too

2022-02-1814:59

From the Eagle Community Church of Christ in Mont Belvieu, TX. John Gunter talks about Hebrews 4:14-16 where we read how Jesus was also tempted, and because of his temptation, he can empathize with us as we are tempted. Sometimes it may not feel like Jesus struggled in life like we do. Many people feel so down about their sins, they can feel like isolated failures. This should not be the case. Scripture talks about how we all sin and fall short of what God desires for us. However, scripture tells us this does not put an end to us. Jesus knows what it is like to live life on earth and to be tempted. Hopefully, this sermon helps our view of who God is and how he sees us. ----------Scriptures: Hebrews 4:14-16 --------------------YouTube video of this sermon: https://youtu.be/K5-_UBPrkAs --------------------Church Website: https://www.eaglechurchofchrist.com --------------------Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/eaglecommunitychurchofchrist ----------

Boasting in God

2022-02-2127:35

From the Eagle Community Church of Christ in Mont Belvieu, TX. John Gunter follows up the "confidence" sermon from last week with a sermon on boasting from Romans 5:1-11. Many of us may feel confidence or boasting are both bad words for Christians, but scripture does not see it this way. John talks about what it means to have a healthy confidence or boasting in God. He also talks about how many people have grown up with the exact opposite feeling concerning their salvation. Instead of boasting or confidence, many experience anxiety, isolation, inadequacy and a sense of doubt about whether they will be saved. What does scripture say about these things? YouTube video of this sermon: https://youtu.be/MIONBq6cAqwChurch Website: https://www.eaglechurchofchrist.comFacebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/eaglecommunitychurchofchrist

1 John Contradictions

2022-03-0228:12

From the Eagle Community Church of Christ in Mont Belvieu, TX. John Gunter takes us into the book of 1 John, where the writer seemingly contradicts himself about Christians sinning. The last two sermons have been about having confidence in salvation. Does 1 John undo all of that? Gunter says there is a key to understanding the writer's argument. Join us for this sermon, and we hope this helps you live closer to Jesus each and every day. ----------YouTube video of this sermon: https://youtu.be/EUqN4CEzwyA----------Church Website: https://www.eaglechurchofchrist.com----------Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/eaglecommunitychurchofchrist

1 John Part II

2022-03-0836:17

From the Eagle Community Church of Christ in Mont Belvieu, TX. This week we look at the second part of 1 John, with the hope that we better understand how the writer can seemingly contradict himself. John Gunter explains what the writer is addressing and how the book should affect the Christian. The writer has something particular in mind when talking about sin that leads to death. If we read on a surface level, we may at times think that the writer is saying no Christian sins, but when taken as a whole, the book reveals something else. ***********Sermon Resources:***********1 John 3:4-181 John 41 John 5:1-11***********YouTube Video of This Sermon: ***********https://youtu.be/-55Z2iHEnCU***********Church Website:*********** https://www.eaglechurchofchrist.com***********Facebook Page:*********** https://www.facebook.com/eaglecommunitychurchofchrist
From the Eagle Community Church of Christ in Mont Belvieu, TX. John Gunter preaches on the topic of baptism and tries to answer some common misconceptions about what baptism means or what it does. Is baptism a work for us? What does the word baptism even mean? How did the biblical writers talk about baptism? What did Jesus say about baptism? We try to answer these questions to help us all better understand the topic of baptism.

From the Eagle Community Church of Christ in Mont Belvieu, TX. John Gunter talks about baptism and its relationship to the grace of God poured out for each of us. Often we may have such a thin, legalistic view of baptism that it loses the meaning we find in scripture. John opens the scriptures to show us how our wording matters, and without the gift of God's grace, nothing matters. Join us in this teaching, and we pray that we all grow closer to God through the reading of his word. YouTube video of this sermonhttps://youtu.be/VFGVVaxsK34Church Websitehttps://www.eaglechurchofchrist.com Facebook Pagehttps://www.facebook.com/eaglecommunitychurchofchrist

From the Eagle Community Church of Christ in Mont Belvieu, TX. John Gunter continues the series on Biblical Leadership by talking about a Shepherd's role within a congregation. What do shepherds do?
