  • March 3, 2024 - If You Wanna Go Far...Narrow is the Wy
    Mar 8 2024

    Sermon Text: Genesis 12:1-9; Matthew 7:13-20

    A testimony is a record of the choices we make to live by faith out of the soil of our disciplines, and the impact our lives make on others. There is no testimony that doesn't require making choices. Abram's choice was to go in the complete opposite direction of the entire world, and Jesus tells us to enter by the narrow gate. Make those hard choices towards the way of God - the love of God, and the love of neighbor.

  • February 25, 2024 - If You Wanna Go Far...Followers of the Way
    Feb 27 2024

    Sermon Text: John 14:1-9; 1 Timothy 4:1-12

    We are all spiritual beings because we are beings who love. If we love anything at all, we are being spiritually formed. The question then is, “Who or what is forming you?” and “is that where you wanna go? Jesus doesn’t say, “I’ll show you the way.” He’s saying, “I am the way…no one comes to the Father except through me.” Jesus makes a bold statement: there’s no path to God you’ve glimpsed in your own soul, without Jesus.

    Sermon Text:  Deuteronomy 6:1-12; Luke 5:1-11

     

    We kick off a new sermon series for Lent, "If You Wanna Go Far..." We begin with motivation. What drives us forward? Can external things, really keep us moving forward in life? Our Scriptures give us a different answer. At Sinai, God implores the people to "Love the Lord your God." And in Luke, Peter has an experience that changes his life. Love is at the core of our most meaningful journeys. What's your story?
