The Healer Lives in You

June 5, 2024 • Tim Atchley • Mark 16:17, Matthew 19:26, Hebrews 4:6, Romans 12:1, Ephesians 3:19

In “The Healer Lives in You”, Pastor Tim Atchley visits us from Harvest Church Knoxville. He explains three keys to healings that that it’s not about how much you believe about healing, it’s about what you believe as it pertains to His position in you and your position in Him.

If you’re not experiencing healing in your life, it’s not because you don’t pray enough or you don’t read your Bible enough. I’m telling you to REST. Labor into rest by believing that Jesus is who He says He is. Believe He lives in you. Believe you live in Him.

Life of Faith Church helps people experience God & enjoy life through relationship with Jesus Christ.

Galatians 2: Nip It in the Bud

July 24, 2024 • Pastor Mark Machen • Galatians 2:1–16, Romans 14:1–21, John 10:10, Galatians 1:13–17, Colossians 2:9–10

Discover the transformative power of the book of Galatians as it guides you from foundational truth to practical living. This sermon is a must-watch for long-time Christians who might find themselves slipping into wrong habits, traditions, and self-effort. We often wrongly believe that what we do determines what we receive from God. However, faith in Jesus is all you need for salvation and His free gift of grace and righteousness. Yet, many find themselves burdened by church-imposed obligations, thinking they must earn God's favor through their actions. Paul teaches that you cannot live in both systems—Christ and law. You'll learn why trying to gain God's blessings through your behavior can rob you of joy. Embrace the abundant life Christ offers as a free gift, and understand that true victory comes from a revelation of Christ within you, not just knowing more about Him. Learn why you don’t need to seek external sources for fulfillment; the fullness of God dwells in you. Accepting this truth is your starting point. Paul and Titus lived in this freedom, and you can too, without being bound by legalism. When Christ lives through you, you respond to others with love, not judgment. Experience real liberty and the conviction to stand firm in your beliefs amidst societal pressures. Learn from Timothy's example—minister with love, not out of fear or pressure. Understand that grace is a free gift, meant to produce ease and rest in your life. Don’t frustrate grace by trying to earn what God has already freely given. Let grace have full reign in your life and see God's purpose fulfilled.

Galatians 1: From Law to Grace

July 17, 2024 • Pastor Mark Machen • John 1:14–17, Acts 26:10–18, Galatians 1, Galatians 5:1–2, Galatians 5:13–14

In "Galatians 1: From Law to Grace," Pastor Mark explores the powerful transformation of Saul to Paul and the Gospel of Grace. We uncover the profound truth that Jesus came to fill us with the Spirit of God. Imagine a life led, guided, and empowered by Him, free from the constraints of religious law and tradition. The body of Christ today faces similar struggles as the early churches Paul addressed. Despite attending church, many aren't experiencing the true power, freedom, and life that God offers. Galatians 1:6 and John 1:14 remind us that the true gospel is one of grace—God’s unearned favor and love. Before Jesus, people sought God's blessing through sacrifices and strict adherence to the law, which dominated their consciousness and traditions. But Jesus brought a radical change, offering grace freely with the demonstration of transforming Paul from a zealous persecutor to a proclaimer of grace. Paul's revelation of grace, despite not walking with Jesus, underscores the transformative power of the Spirit. He teaches us that living to gain favor from God leads to judgment and comparison, while understanding grace brings true freedom and joy. Religion may scorn this joy, but grace enables a deeper, more authentic experience of God. For those facing persecution or opposition, remember that it's often the Spirit working within others that stirs their anger. Continue to love and minister to them, and watch Jesus transform their lives. The gospel is simple: forgiveness and grace are already given. Christ within you is the hope of glory, a journey of discovering Jesus in you. Embrace this truth and experience the life-changing power of God's grace today.
