All Things New

Born Again

January 31, 2021 • Lorenzo Elizondo

What is your reason for following God? The religious leaders in Jesus’ day following him for their temple, their purification system, and to show off their good deeds. In John 2, Nicodemus asks Jesus, “What must I do to be saved?” The answer that Jesus gave him is the same answer for us today, “You must be born again”. We don’t turn into babies again, but instead we repent and believe in the gospel of Jesus.

Built on the Rock

January 24, 2021 • Lorenzo Elizondo

It’s so easy to forget the basics: the who, what, where and why. In this sermon, we take a look at Jesus’ design for his Church and his people. May we always be reminded that we are saved, built, and sustained by Jesus alone.

New Wine and Old Wineskins

January 17, 2021 • Lorenzo Elizondo

Many of us struggle in our walk with Christ because we try to squeeze the new things of God into our old ways of living. We must give up everything, our mistakes, history, past, success and failure and follow Jesus.

The Danger of Discouragement

January 10, 2021 • Lorenzo Elizondo

Satan's favorite way to get Christians to fall is through discouragement. He's done this throughout all of history. In the Old Testament, the people of God grew impatient and discouraged, then gave up waiting on him. However, a few believed that God was greater than their doubt and trusted in him. God provided a remedy for them back then, and still does today. What has you discouraged? What's causing fear in your life? Our focus and trust is in God, no one or nothing else.

New Wine Attitude

January 3, 2021 • Lorenzo Elizondo • 2 John 1–11

Jesus makes all things new. In John 2, we see Jesus' power on full display at the wedding at Cana. Jesus didn't just turn water into wine to show us a cool trick, he did so so that we might see a new to live our lives: full dependence on Jesus. We no longer look to the world to bring solutions to our biggest problems, but look to Jesus. The God that has power over nature and time, even the molecules in the water that we drink, promises to give those that believe in him joy that overcomes all things.
