Turning Points

Inward Rest

July 7, 2024 • Dr. John Harrison • Matthew 11:28–30

The search for inward rest and peace is elusive these days. Many people are wearied with life and live with burdens too heavy to bear. In this sermon on Inward Rest, Dr. Harrison points to Jesus as the true source of inward rest and three steps to take in receiving his promise of rest for your soul.

Knowing God

June 30, 2024 • Dr. John Harrison • Matthew 11:25–27

God's desire is that people will know him personally through a relationship with Jesus Christ. In this sermon from the series Turning Points, Dr. Harrison addresses the goal of God's revelation, where this revelation originates from, and who are the people able to receive the revelation of God.

Accepting the Evidence

March 3, 2024 • Dr. John Harrison • Matthew 11:20–24

This week in Turning Points, Dr. Harrison focuses on Matthew 11:20-24 that shows the people’s failure to accept the evidence surrounding Jesus and to receive him as their Messiah. It is a harsh judgment on those who remain indifferent to Jesus and want to be independent from Jesus, despite all the evidence surrounding him as the Messiah. This is your turning point: Will you accept the works of God in your life and believe in Jesus, or will you reject him and do your own thing?

Changing Your Perspective

February 25, 2024 • Dr. John Harrison • Matthew 11:16–19

You can miss the truth because you are fixated on a style. In this sermon on Changing Your Perspective, Dr. Harrison shows how a person’s perspective can keep them from knowing truth and having a relationship with Jesus. Unrepentant attitudes, critical responses, and stereotyped images will keep a person from truly knowing Jesus. Like the crowds in John's and Jesus' day, this is your turning point: Will you change your perspective and accept Jesus for who he is, or will you reject him and remain rigid in your own perspective?

Believing the Message

February 18, 2024 • Dr. John Harrison • Matthew 11:7–15

In this sermon from Turning Points, Dr. Harrison focuses on Believing the Message as Jesus gives tribute to John the Baptist on his character, position, and impact. Like the crowds that listened to both John and Jesus, this is your turning point: Will you believe the message of John and follow Jesus the Messiah?

Dealing with Doubt

February 11, 2024 • Dr. John Harrison • Matthew 11:1–6

There are turning points in life that will either take you closer to the heart of Jesus or away from following him. There comes a point when you must decide if Jesus is the Messiah or not. Will you follow him or reject him? In this series, Turning Points, from Matthew 11, Dr. Harrison begins with a focus on Dealing with Doubt. Like John the Baptist, doubt can arise from unmet expectations, affect the most committed, but give opportunity for greater growth.
