October 15, 2023 • Pastor Larry Hof • Romans 8:31–39, Hebrews 4:12, 2 Corinthians 10:3–6
There is only one major point today...God Loves YOU! There is absolutely nothing anyone, including yourself, can do about it. Nothing will ever change the way God feels about you right now! Listen in, lean into, let's go!
Living in the Gospel Part 8: Life Everlasting Starts Now
October 8, 2023 • Pastor Larry Hof • Proverbs 13:12, 1 Peter 1:6–9, Romans 8:18–30, James 1:2–4, James 1:12–16
As we start to come to the conclusion or our series we want to encourage the believer to understand that this Life in Christ has no end and it begins the moment we choose Christ! We MUST choose to live in His Grace and Mercy by Faith! We will one day walk the streets of gold with Him but we can walk the streets in the here and now with Him!
Living The Gospel Part 7: Being God's Child
September 17, 2023 • Pastor Larry Hof • Romans 8:12–17, James 2:17–20, 1 John 4:18
How often do you think about the fact that if you are IN Christ that in God's eyes you are Like Christ? God's desire for each of us to understand and embrace that so we might show others what He sees!
Living the Gospel Part 6: New Life IN Christ
September 10, 2023 • Pastor Larry Hof • 1 John 3:8, Romans 8:1–11, 1 John 3:9
No means no! If we have no condemnation as we are in Christ and follow Christ, then why are we not living IN Christ? Why do we turn away from so great a life? Did you know that there are laws in play here that tell us we WILL Struggle? Let's Go!
Living the Gospel Part 5: Carrying the Carcass
September 3, 2023 • Pastor Larry Hof • Romans 8:1–11, Hebrews 12:1–2
We have talked about dying to self & sin, playing dead and staying dead. What about when we do all that but then choose to carry the dead? Do you live a life filled with Condemnation? Do you long to be free and alive in Christ?
Living the Gospel-Part 4:Our Internal Struggle
August 27, 2023 • Pastor Larry Hof • Romans 7
Every child of God struggles to "stay dead" instead of "play dead" as we internally wrestle with what is good and what is bad. Do we surrender the victory promised in Christ too often? Or is victory lane a place we walk?
Living the Gospel Part 3: Dying to Self & Sin Part 2
August 20, 2023 • Pastor Larry Hof • Matthew 4:4, Matthew 26:39, John 15:13, Romans 6:6–23
The struggle to live in the Gospel starts with a realization. We have to realize that pride, selfishness, our wills, all that we desire to do and be must be laid down on our altar of sacrifice to Christ.
Living the Gospel Part 2: Death to Self & Sin
August 13, 2023 • Pastor Larry Hof • Romans 6, Hebrews 10:26, 2 Peter 2:20, Romans 5:19–21
Do you struggle with your Christian walk? Do you know that inside of you is a strong desire to follow Christ yet everything in life seems to get in the way of that happening? Maybe God's Word has a solution for us to truly follow Him!
Part One: Playing Dead
August 6, 2023 • Pastor Larry Hof • Romans 6:1–3
Have you ever played dead? I mean spiritually put on the show that you're living a death to self christianity when you're not? We will never have life to live the gospel if we don't truly die to who we are.
