Lessons from the Master
Where Do I Go From Here?
May 24, 2020 • Pastor Tim Veenstra
Life is complicated. There are many paths to choose from, so how can we know we are on the right path? Jesus’ call throughout the Gospels is “Follow me.” But what does that mean? How does this practically flesh out in this life? Jesus’ interactions with the rich, young man in Matthew’s Gospel give us key wisdom and indicators, directing us to the righteous path.
Prepare
May 17, 2020 • Pastor Dave Engbrecht
The core of Jesus' message often focused on the word "prepare." Jesus spent three years preparing His disciples to continue His ministry. He called people to prepare for eternity. He prepared followers to be fully committed disciples. The single focus to prepare flows out of His ministry. His call then is His call today – prepare. Now is the time. We are the people. Prepare!
Fight for Your Family!
May 10, 2020 • Pastor Dave Engbrecht
It’s time to wake up! It’s time to stand up! It’s time to fight! And the fight is a fight for our families! The first institution created by God is under assault. The enemy knows that if he can attack the family and take it down, he will control everything. That’s why there’s an intense battle cry – Fight for Your Family!
Scandalous Grace
May 3, 2020 • Pastor Tim Veenstra
Our hope and prayer in this season is that you would be so filled with the Spirit of God that there would be overflow. In our current reality, the mission stays the same: we must go, live, talk and breathe the good news of Jesus Christ. Now is a time of preparation, and if we are going to share the gospel, we must become adept in our understanding of God’s grace.
When God Puts You in the Time Out Chair
April 26, 2020 • Pastor Dave Engbrecht
When experiencing global disruption, it’s tempting to ask, "Why?" Perhaps the better question to ask is, "What?" What is God trying to say? What are the lessons that we need to learn? Throughout history, God has disrupted the world. It happened at the Tower of Babel. It happened with Noah and the worldwide flood. It’s happening today. So what’s God saying? What’s the lesson that we need to learn? Don’t waste the moment, but learn—learn sitting at the Master’s feet.
