Journey to Joy
March 20, 2022 • Pastor Jonathan Rainey • Joshua 14:6–15, Numbers 14:9
Scripture: Joshua 14:6-15 Three main points for this sermon are: 1) Caleb's Commitment 2) Caleb's Confidence 3) Caleb's Courage Some important thoughts/quotes from this sermon: "Half-hearted Christians are faint-hearted Christians, and they never learn to conquer the giants in their lives." Numbers 14:9 (giants become bread) "The man who kneels before God can stand before anyone and anything!" "Our problems can either bury us ore we can trample them down until we rise above." Courage = YES to Jesus!!
Strength for the Suffering
March 13, 2022 • Pastor Herb Hartso III • Isaiah 40:27–31
Isaiah 40:27-31 is the main scripture reference. Today's outline is: 1. The Supremacy of God (v. 27-28) 2. The Strength of God (v. 29-31) Take-Away: Spend your time worshiping rather than complaining "The greater God appears to us, the smaller our afflictions will seem." - Pastor Andy Davis, FBC Durham. How do you wait for the Lord? Stop complaining (Is. 40:27) Start worshiping (Is. 40:28) Ask for strength (Is 40:29) Soar, run and walk. Jesus should be the primary object of our waiting.
What is Your Story
February 27, 2022 • Pastor Mark • John 4, John 5, John 9
Pastor Mark's primary scripture references are from The Gospel of John, chapters 4, 5, & 9. Walking through the stories of the Samaritan women at the well, the cripple at the pool of Bethesda and the Blind man, how Jesus changed their lives, with miracles at times, we're left the question: What story has Jesus written in our lives that we can share with others, believers to encourage and non-believers to give an opportunity to share the Gospel!
