Current Sermon Series: “The Forgotten God”
 

Pastor Francis Chan in his book, “The Forgotten God,” presents the case that many churches, even if they would not say it’s true, have forgotten God in their worship and practice by neglecting the person and practice of the Holy Spirit. Is this true for each of us? Could this be said about our church? Do we live and minister in such comfort that we have eliminated the need of God’s Spirit? Would we even notice His absence?

Forget God’s Will (Sermon 2/17/19)
By: Pastor Kevin McBride
Series: Sermon Series: “The Forgotten God”
“If I only knew God’s will for my life I would do it.” “I wish God would show me what to do.” There are very few people in history who have ever known all of God’s will for their lives from beginning to end. If we are honest, it’s easy to say we will follow God someday instead of today.

    We talk a lot about what we love. “I love my spouse, my kids, my family.” “I love sports.” “I love pizza.” How much do we talk about how much we love the church?

    Afraid of Answering the Door (Sermon 1/27/19)
    By: Pastor Kevin McBride
    Series: Sermon Series: “The Forgotten God”
    Fear can motivate us, paralyze us and even cripple us in our lives. We all have some fear of something(s). Two questions:
    1. Are you afraid of what other people think of you?
    2. Are you afraid of following Jesus?

    By: Pastor Kevin McBride
    Series: Sermon Series: “The Forgotten God”
    The Holy Spirit for many is the least understood, and the most underappreciated person of the Trinity. Many are more comfortable saying they want “Jesus with them,” but shy away from acknowledging the Holy Spirit as part of their lives.

Sermon Series: “LIFE’S BIG QUESTIONS ANSWERED”

There are four big questions everyone has to face sooner or later.

“Where did I come from?”
“Why am I here?”
“How should I live?”
“Where am I going?”
 
This Advent Season we will be looking at Scriptures from the Prophet Isaiah, and the Gospels to see how Christmas holds the answers to life’s biggest questions for all of us.

    Is There Life After Christmas (Sermon 12/23/18)
    By: Pastor Kevin McBride
    Series: Sermon Series: “Life’s Big Questions Answered“
    We all strive towards the goal of finishing the marathon of the Christmas season. When all is said and done, is there something more that we are missing? Is the birth of Jesus the final answer, or is there something more to come?

    That’s Good Enough (Sermon 12/16/18)
    By: Pastor Kevin McBride
    Series: Sermon Series: “Life’s Big Questions Answered“
    We all have a philosophy on how we would live our lives. For some that may be simply to get out of bed in the morning. What is your life philosophy? Is it “good enough” so that you can live with contentment?  Does the message and meaning of Christmas have any role to play on how each of us can live a life that is more than, “good enough?”

    By: Pastor Kevin McBride
    Series: Sermon Series: “Life’s Big Questions Answered“
    Many people at some point in their life have asked, “What’s the meaning of my life?” Why Am I here? When we feel our life has no meaning or purpose we can either wander aimlessly, or wander into self-destruction. With Jesus’ coming into the world, God helps us answer the question, “Why Am I Here?”

    Mud Pies in the Slum (Sermon 12/2/18)

    Series: Sermon Series: “Life’s Big Questions Answered“
    Different agencies have set different values on a human life. The Environmental Protection Agency set the value of a life at $9.1 million in 2010. The Food and Drug Administration, on the other hand, came up with a value of $7.9 million and finally, the Transportation Department said it was around $6 million, July 21, 2017. Many struggle with the idea that their life has no value or worth to anyone. If it has no value, then I must not matter. God says otherwise.

Sermon Series: “This Time Tomorrow…” 
Paul at the end of his life felt the most important thing he could do was to make sure that his partner and friend Timothy carries on in his place, and made sure that Timothy would teach others. As followers of Jesus, how now shall we live in order to best follow Jesus, and help others do the same?

    “From earth's wide bounds, from ocean's farthest coast, Through gates of pearl streams in the countless host, And singing to Father, Son and Holy Ghost: Alleluia, Alleluia! (For All the Saints). This last verse from the hymn, “For All the Saints,” looks forward to the day where all who have given their lives to Christ will enter heaven in glory and praise. Will we be in that procession? Who will be in that procession that we have invited?

    As followers, disciples of Jesus, we are called to look beyond ourselves to see the needs of others, and try to address those needs.. Our goal is to not only serve others, but in our service, help others discover Jesus. As a disciple, do I live aware of my motives for serving, and the results of my service to Jesus?

    Words matter. Words have meaning and power. Words can build someone up, or tear their lives apart. The recent Supreme Court hearings demonstrate how powerful words can be. When we think of personal integrity, we rarely think of how someone handles and use words. How would someone listening to us rank us on our integrity?

    We are called to be faithful to our families, responsibilities, and God. So what is it that challenges our faithfulness to all these things every day? How as a follower of Jesus can I live faithfully when I may be challenged to bend in any of these areas?

    Series: Sermon Series: "This Time Tomorrow..."
    "Body Shaming” has been in the news a great deal; the idea that by our words and actions, we can make people feel ashamed of the body they have because it does not “fit in” to acceptable standards set by society. As a follower, disciple of Jesus, do I feel ashamed to be associated with Jesus? How about with others who say they are followers as well?

    Many people write out their “Last Will and Testament.” Final wishes, thoughts, dispensation of belongings to family and friends. Have you thought what is important to you to pass along to the next generation? Materially? Spiritually? What will you pass along that will benefit the advancement of God’s kingdom?
