In this second sermon on “Prayer Goals,” we look at Romans 12:15-16 and are asked to pray that God would cultivate in us a community of care—that we make time for one another, live in harmony and humility, and that we are so connected that we feel joy together and walk through each other’s sorrows. And from Jeremiah 29:7, we’re asked to pray that God would cultivate a love for our larger community, that we might invest in and seek the welfare of our city, praying to the Lord on its behalf.

In this sermon from Isaiah 40:27-31, guest speaker Todd Miles looks at Israel’s complaint, who God is, what he does, and what his people should do in response. We are reminded to go to God for help, to pray with expectation, and in our waiting to obey, hope, trust, and seek after the Lord. From our Sunday service at Grace Bible Church of Bend.
The Evidence of Genuine Love
December 31, 2023 • Pastor Phil Kooistra • 1 John 4:17–21
In the book of 1 John, the apostle explains what genuine love, love that is “perfected,” should look like. In this New Year’s sermon from 1 John 4:17-21, Pastor Phil looks at two evidences of genuine love: a love that lacks fear and one that displays sacrificial love for others. This type of genuine love will only come about by the power of the Spirit as we faithfully abide in Jesus Christ. From our Sunday service at Grace Bible Church of Bend.
Abigail the Peacemaker
October 29, 2023 • Guest • 1 Samuel 25
In this sermon, author, speaker and biblical counselor Jim Newheiser brings us a message from 1 Samuel 25, where we see Abigail serving as a peacemaker, rescuing her family from death and David from sin. We see in Abigail a model of how to confront someone about their sin, and in David we have an example of how to humbly accept correction and change course when needed.
