We’ve been studying the book of Psalms. We’ve already looked at Psalm 1 and Psalm 2; they are the introductory Psalms. Originally, they were just one Psalm. Then you move on to Psalm 3, which we have looked at, and we’ve also examined Psalm 4. Now [...]

We’re going to study a part of the book of Psalms as our preaching menu for the next few months. I’ll be honest with you: I’ve been reticent to do this. Not that I haven’t spoken on Psalms or taught on Psalms; it’s just one of those books that’s [...]

To what can we compare this generation? With that question in mind, I encountered something I had never heard of before. There’s a special category of goats called fainting goats. Did you know that? By the way, these goats have the finest cashmere [...]

We’ve been talking about having a life coach for a long time. Then we moved from having a life coach to discussing how we can proceed and progress in our Christian walk. I looked at some verses and reviewed them again. In John 10:10, Jesus said, «I [...]

This whole cover-to-cover series-I started prepping for it about nine months ago, and it’s been the hardest thing I’ve ever done in terms of preparing for a teaching series. It’s like a lifetime’s worth of learning and work. You’re going over these [...]

We’re in a series of messages we’re calling «Cover to Cover.» We’ve been in the Bible since January 5th, and we’re going all the way through. We took about 11 weeks to look into the Old Testament and spent some time discussing how to read the Bible, [...]

Um, we did 15 weeks to start the year, which we called «Cover to Cover,» and it was really zoomed out. I mean, at one point, we did 21 epistles in one weekend. Okay, we covered a lot of ground, and a lot of that was kind of looking at portions of [...]

I wanna make a confession to you, and it’s one that I’m not proud of. We didn’t mean to do it. On behalf of parents, we didn’t plan it. No mom and dad ever held their newborn and thought, «One day I’m gonna hand you a device that seems normal and [...]

So I’d like you to take a trip back in time with me. It’s 67 AD. It’s not a good time to be a follower of Jesus in Rome. A couple of years before this, Emperor Nero kind of launched widespread persecution. So Christians are being arrested. They’re [...]

So I’ve been studying the life of Joseph lately. If you don’t know who Joseph is, he’s one of the 12 sons of a man named Israel. Israel had 12 sons, and they became the beginning of the 12 tribes of the nation that we know as Israel. And Joseph was [...]

Well, hey, welcome back to week number two of our Legacy Lens series. As we said last week, this is really a relationship series because a legacy is not something we leave. It’s not the company, it’s not the possessions; it’s someone we love. So [...]

I want to talk to you today about leveling up, and I’m curious how many of us are familiar with that phrase, «leveling up.» Not all that many? Okay, now I’m really curious. How many of you know about leveling up because you play video games? All [...]

So I want to talk to you today a little bit about the role of our emotions in making decisions. And I’m kind of curious how many of you would say, «I’m a very emotional person. I’m an emotional decision maker.» How many of you are sitting next to [...]

Hey, I want to talk to you today a little bit about something God’s been teaching me about why I don’t always see everything that God wants to show me. How many of us here would like God to show up a little bit more in our lives? I wonder how many [...]

All right, we’re kicking off a new series this morning. If you enjoy it, part two will be next week. The title of the series is «I Talk Back to the Devil.» Doesn’t that sound good? «I Talk Back to the Devil.» Here’s the reality: whether you’ve been [...]

All right, we’re going to talk about this topic: dealing with disappointment. If you’re new here, I’m only going to talk for about an hour and a half, maybe two hours, and I’ll get you guys out of here straight away. No, I don’t talk very long, and [...]

I’m excited about this message. It’s called «Chance and Coincidence.» Let me dive right into it right off the bat. Let me share with you Romans 8:28. Let’s read it together. I know it’s still early, but let’s read it together real loud. One, two, [...]

Let me share with you what the title is. This is: The Flame of Joy. There’s a flame of joy on the inside of you. Now here’s the thing: In Nehemiah 8:10, it says joy is your strength. If you have courage, if you have this optimistic view, if you feel [...]
