As the new year approaches, we take a look at all we have worked toward for God's kingdom. Whether we are involved in trips, projects or directly discipling someone, we are called to do all things for the glory of God. Jesus teaches in this passage, if anyone truly believes in Him and seeks to serve Him, they will do the things He has done.
Working for Christ is not the same as just being busy. When we seek the heart of God and pray for His will to be done here just like it is in Heaven, we work toward showing the world who He is, with no recognition for ourselves. Our life will bear the fruit of a transformed heart striving to please Christ, not the world or even ourselves. We are called to continue the work of Jesus. What will you do with the time you have been given?
John 14:1-14

In our third sermon of the "'Tis the Season" series, we walk through a passage that shows Jesus full of the Holy Spirit's power. Even in our sinful state, our human nature, Christ offers redemption to us. In order to fully surrender our lives to Jesus, we must receive the gospel and give ourselves over to Him. Only then can we truly walk in the freedom Christ died to give us.
Luke 4: 14-21

Listen as Ken Nix asks the question, "Why do we come to church?", and how scripture points to the answer. If we take on the commandments given to His followers, we too can show the world we are truly His disciples.

In part two of our "'Tis the Season" series, we look at the importance, necessity even, of humility. We have to have a humble heart to get to Jesus, who is the foundation for everything we build our lives of faith upon. Jesus came to seek and save the lost. If we allow our pride to rule our lives, we will never understand our need for a Savior.
Luke 2:1-20

In the new series "'Tis The Season", we approach the heart of the gospel and the full reason why Jesus came. Before we can fully accept the gracious gift He has come to offer us, we must see who we are in light of His perfection. We are all in the same condition needing the same thing today as those in the day of John the Baptist. "Repentance". Just as clear as his message was leading up to the revelation of who Messiah was, it is as clear today for those of us who recognize Christ as Savior. We have to repent to be saved. We are unable to celebrate the birth, death and resurrection of Jesus if at first we do not turn away from our old nature and allow our hearts to be changed by the Holy Spirit. We simply cannot live for God if we continue to live for ourselves.
God knows we are not perfect, but He desires our best. Give yourself to Him and He will transform you into a vessel for His glory. True repentance leads to a life with Christ that will never end.
Luke 1:5-17

From the moment Adam introduced sin into the world, the full plan of redemption was already in motion.

As we continue our "Overcoming Anger" series, we are reminded how quickly anger can get out of control through the passage of Cain murdering his brother, Able. If we allow our sinful feelings to linger and grow, they will eventually turn into action.
In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus speaks directly about anger. He is clear that the motives in our heart are as sinful as our outward actions. If we have anger or any other thing against another person, reconciliation should come even before a sacrifice to God.
Genesis 4:1-26; Matthew 5:17-26

When we are adopted into God's family, we are recipients of His grace. As we eagerly await His return, we have been given the opportunity to reach others who do not know the grace that is extended to them. We can tell of this truth because God has revealed Himself to us through Jesus Christ.
Ephesians 1: 1-23

Job faced so many setbacks in his lifetime. He was righteous and lived a life pleasing to God. In his darkest night of the soul, he cursed the day of his birth. In his despair, he cries out with painful questions of why he had to live to see this day of complete devastation.
Have you ever been angry with God? Many times over the course of our lives, we are faced with situations that make us feel confused, sad and even angry. What do we do when our anger is toward God?
Job 3:1-26, 38:1-41, 42:1-17

When Christ calls, do you follow? Do you take up your cross and share the gospel with those in our path? What do you do with the calling Jesus places on your life?
Following Jesus and sharing the gospel are not only callings, they are responsibilities for every believer.
Mark 1:16-20, Ezekiel 33:1-9
