David
Will God Forgive Me?
July 11, 2021 • Angie Frame
This past week, teaching Pastor Angie Frame helped us to understand two main strategies in avoiding sin pitfalls, that we need to fulfill our roles, not our desires and also to focus on Loving God and others well instead of ourselves. Pastor Bryan Pope takes us a step further to explore the spiritual discipline of confession as a way to prevent wrong action.
The Battle is Not Yours
July 4, 2021 • Elijah Schiarelli
David & Goliath. It’s a wonderful story of overcoming the odds. It inspires most of us because we want to be the kind of people who go toe-to-toe with Adversity and know that we can overcome it. Like Stallone did. Like David did. But David had the humility to know that he was not able to face Goliath alone. Apart from God, David knew that we would lose. Join Teaching Pastor Elijah Schiarelli as he demonstrates that we CAN overcome our giants when we learn from David’s humility and confidence. Humility to know that he couldn’t. Confidence to know that God could.
What Will People Say? (Undignified Worship)
June 27, 2021 • Brian C. Hughes
Embarrassment. It happens. But we don’t WANT it to happen. Because we care how we’re perceived and we care about what others think. That’s not bad. Not at all. But there are some exceptions. In the life of David, there was a moment when others thought he should have felt embarrassed—when at least one other person was embarrassed for him. But what David was doing and WHO he was doing it for was FAR more important to him than what anyone else thought.
Lost in the Wilderness
June 20, 2021 • Brian C. Hughes
Has your life ever turned upside down in an instant? As in, everything was going well one minute and in complete turmoil the next? Many of us can relate to feeling alone. Isolated. This is where David finds himself after being anointed the future King of Israel. One minute, he’s climbing the ladder of success. And then it all gets twisted. How did it all go wrong? Whatever wilderness you may find yourself in, discover hope, truth, and TRAINING through this account of David, as he learns to rely completely on God. The pathway out of the wilderness is almost unspeakably painful, but the benefit of it is unshakably holy.
More Than Meets The Eye
June 13, 2021 • Brian C. Hughes
Our eyes can transmit 10 million bits of information every second. With our eyes, we take in the beauty of creation, avoid the peril of predators, produce epic works of art, and create. But we also evaluate. We assess something’s worth and assign its value based on what it looks like, often ignoring the voice inside of us, telling us that… …there is more than meets the eye. Join Senior Pastor Brian C. Hughes as he looks at how you and I use our eyes to evaluate worth, while God uses an MRI and peers beyond the skin and into the heart.
