I Am King!

March 24, 2024 • Pastor Chad Thompson • Mark 11:1–11

Give

Bottom line: Jesus is King! But, He is only your saving King if you believe in, trust upon, and yield to Him.

On Palm Sunday, Jesus declared Himself to be King not only of Israel but of all the world. He declared Himself King by fulfilling prophecy, cleansing the temple, performing miracles, and receiving the acclamation of men, women, and children. Jesus declared Himself King, but He was ultimately rejected by the Jewish leaders and crucified on a cross. However, He is now the resurrected King and will gladly be your king, if you will believe, trust, and yield to Him.

Sarah's Faith

May 12, 2024 • Pastor Chad Thompson • Hebrews 11:11

Bottom line: A faith that judges God faithful will grow and experience the fulfilment of God's promise in His timing. Sarah's demonstration of faith teaches us some very important lessons: 1) To live by faith, you must judge God faithful 2) To live by faith, you must overcome your unbelief 3) If you live by faith, you can experience the impossible (i.e. God's possible) Sarah overcame her own unbelief. When she overheard God say that in one year she would have a child, she laughed. She literally laughed at what God said because she didn't believe. However, she overcame her unbelief as she judged God faithful. At the age of 90 she experienced the impossible. She gave birth to her firstborn son, Isaac. Isaac's name means laughter. She went from laughing at the promise to laughing with joy because the promise was fulfilled.

Parents Moved By Faith

May 5, 2024 • Pastor Chad Thompson • Hebrews 11:7

Bottom line: Parents moved by faith act to "save" their family. Heb. 11:7 shows us that Noah was a believer (a parent) that was moved by his faith to trust God's message about the future, act on what he believed, build an ark and ultimately save his family from future judgement and death and from the wickedness and spiritual dangers of the culture in which he lived. We can learn from Noah's example that we too can by faith "save" our family.

Jesus! He's All We Need

April 28, 2024 • Pastor Chad Thompson • Colossians 2:9–15

Bottom line: Jesus meets our deepest needs because Jesus is all we need. When we understand who Jesus is (Lord, Savior, Victorious King) and what He has to offer us (salvation, forgiveness, lordship, victory, etc.), then we don't have to look anywhere else to find what we truly need. In Jesus we have all that we need because Jesus is all we need.
