FALL 2024 - The Little Chapel

Be Thankful for OUR GOD

November 24, 2024 • Pastor Branden • Revelation 7:9–12, James 4:1–7, Philippians 2:1–11, Psalm 136, Psalm 100

As we dive into Psalm 100 together, we quickly find 7 imperatives that take place when we have hearts of gratitude for OUR GOD! 1. Praise/Proclamation 2. Serve 3. Come 4. Know 5. Enter 6. Thanks 7. Bless When we start to really think about these actions in the light of being thankful, we start to learn just how important it is to be close to God and to have an intimate relationship with our savior and creator.

That My Life May be a Reflection of the Lord

November 17, 2024 • Psalm 150, John 1:1–16, Matthew 4:14–16, 2 Corinthians 5:16–21, Romans 5:1–5

Jesus instructs us to worship in Spirit and in truth but true praise and worship is not confined to a church building. We see in Psalm 150 that truly worshipping God is more than just singing or vocalizing praise during a church service. It is a way of life that honors God and REFLECTS His greatness in EVERY aspect of life. We cannot help but praise God when we realize His greatness, goodness and when we ponder all that He has done in creation, through salvation of people, and the things He has done in our personal lives. In this we respond with praise by expressing joy, gratitude and a desire for a deeper relationship with God. But what if praise is supposed to be more than just a personal desire on the inside, and much deeper than just a proclamation of thanks?

"Whatever Happens..."

October 27, 2024 • Pastor Branden • Ecclesiastes 8:2–17, Romans 13, 1 Peter 2:13–17, Philippians 1:27–30, Philippians 2:1–16

This morning we will be discussing what the Christ-centered mindset towards politics should be and how, based on Bible reference, we as christians should approach living in a world with political leadership.

"But My God"

October 20, 2024 • Pastor Branden • Isaiah 55:8–9, 1 John 2:16–17, Proverbs 14:12, 1 Samuel 12:16, Psalm 86:11

Daily our world and its ways, solutions, and choices are being presented to the church on a silver plater to choose over God. We need to stand firm in knowing that our God is greater and that His ways are better than whatever the world may suggest. We are going to look at Jesus as well as many Biblical Characters who knew that their God was greater than what the world had to offer. Our goal is to know that His ways ARE higher, greater, and better than our ways!

Living Examples of God's Goodness

October 13, 2024 • Pastor Branden • Matthew 7:11–12, Proverbs 12:25, 1 Thessalonians 5:8, Psalm 27:13, Philippians 4:4–9

We all know God is good, but often the enemy tries to get a foothold in our lives and causes us to worry about life which causes us to take our eyes off of God's goodness. In this mornings message we are going to remind oursleves that we serve a good and wonderful good, how to combat the enemies plot to cause us to worry, and discuss the what starts to happen in our lives as we let go of worry and think about the Lord's goodness.

John 6 "To Whom Shall We Go?"

October 6, 2024 • Pastor Branden • John 6

In a world full of problems, how do we keep a Christlike mindset as we navigate through our day to day lives? This morning we will be dissecting John chapter 6 and looking at how Jesus navigated problems but also how God allows storms in our lives so that we may learn to trust in Him. When facing problems, we need to give everything to God and allow Him to move. We need to give thanks to the Lord when He uses us for His Kingdom purposes. We need to remember that God is sovereign and all on the throne, interceding for us. We need to have a hunger and a thirst for the Lord.

Reaching Your Generation

September 29, 2024 • Pastor Branden • Exodus 3:5–15, John 8:31–41, Mark 10:15–16, Psalm 37:25–26, Psalm 78

As we continue this year looking at the need to have a Christ-centered mindset, we will be discussing this morning how important it is for us to "Reach Your Generation". In the western world today, we are usually thinking about ourselves and the immediate. This morning we will find out that the God that we serve thinks in terms of generations, a much longer view. The God we serve is a God of generations and the Jewish culture represented that throughout the Bible. The question is, do we have this mindset today? We might ask, "Who is my generation?" and "How do I reach them?". This mornings message will answer these questions.
