God’s Grace is Enough
Series: (All)
Life’s struggles can seem overwhelming – we can give in to discouragement, depression and anxiety, worrying about what will or won’t happen. We can find ourselves wondering, “Where is God’s grace now? Will He show me grace even here?”
God’s grace is present here and now – it is available to us. A look at 2 Corinthians 12:7-10 helps us to see that God’s grace wasn’t just available and sufficient for Paul, but that it is presently available and sufficient for us as well, no matter what we’re going through. Four points can be discerned in Paul's words to us: God’s Grace is Sufficient for Unsolicited Problems; 2) God’s Grace Should Drive Us to Unrelenting Prayer; 3) God’s Grace Shows Up in Unexpected Provision; and 4) God’s Grace Leaves Us with Undeniable Peace.
God’s grace is sufficient to sustain you no matter what you may be suffering.
2 Corinthians 12:7-10

Jun 22, 2025Opportunity KnocksSeries: GalatiansThere are opportunities that present themselves in our lives which are always right to take advantage of. For instance, in Galatians 6:6-10, Paul encourages us to take every opportunity to do good to others. Part of what it means to live and walk by the Spirit is to care for the practical needs of others, especially other believers.Paul presents us with 3 challenges in this passage: 1) Take Care of Those Who Teach God’s Word; 2) Consider Carefully How You Will Use All that God has Given You; and 3) Hang In There and Keep Helping Others, Even When it’s Hard.Take every opportunity to do good to others and care for their needs.Galatians 6:6-10June 22, 2025To watch the video of this message, click here.

Jun 15, 2025Blueprints for LifeSeries: Father's DayWhen it comes to construction, there are certain common elements no matter how big a project may be. You need to understand the plans (or at least have a plan), you need good materials, and you need to be careful as you build.Regardless of your skill with a drill, we are all builders of God’s church. In 1 Cor. 3:10-15, the apostle Paul informs us that we are all in the Christian construction business, and that we all need to be mindful of the work we do in the name of Christ. Paul's blueprints for life include 4 instructions to us: 1) Be Sure to Build Carefully; 2) Build on the Proper Foundation; 3) Use Quality Materials; and 4) Remember the Coming Inspection.Build God's Church by doing your best to honor God with your deeds.1 Corinthians 3:10-15June 15, 2025Father's DayTo watch the video of this message, click here.

Jun 8, 2025Care, Bear, and BewareSeries: GalatiansIn Galatians 6:1-5, Paul addresses the problem of individual sin by explaining our corporate responsibility – a Christian may sin alone, but his or her sin affects the whole. Our calling is to help one another when we find each other caught in sin. Paul instructs us to do 3 things: 1) Restore the Broken; 2) Relieve the Burdened; and 3) Resist Being Prideful.Be humble as you help fellow sinners and bear each other’s burdens.Galatians 6:1-5June 8, 2025To watch the video of this message, click here.

Jun 1, 2025Dying to LiveSeries: GalatiansAs Paul wraps up Galatians 5, he summarizes for us much of what he’s been telling us all along – we are to walk by the leading of God’s Holy Spirit. Two main points show up in our passage: 1) Remember That You Have Died to the Desires of the Flesh; and 2) Live Your Life in Step with God’s Spirit.Leave your fleshly life behind and live by the Spirit.Galatians 5:24-26June 1, 2025To watch the video of this message, click here.

May 25, 2025Growing in Godly Character – Cruise Control or Self-Control?Series: GalatiansBehind most of the greatest accomplishments in our world are people who demonstrate amazing self-control - The sort of dedication needed to work hard at something, until a level of mastery is acquired. Regrettably, a lack of self-control can also be a very obvious thing, showing up as addiction, materialism, anger, or unwise spending, for example.God wants us to demonstrate self-control in our lives. That is why it is among the 9 elements of the Fruit of the Spirit, found in Galatians 5:22-23. Using the book of Proverbs as our source for God's instruction on self-control, there are three points I'd like to make: 1) An Absence of Self-Control Should Be a Serious Concern in Our Lives; 2) We Need to Strive for Self-Control in Every Area of Life; and 3) Growing in Self-Control is one of the Greatest Battles You Will Fight.Self-control comes through submission to the Savior.Galatians 5:23May 25, 2025To watch the video of this message, click here.

May 18, 2025Growing in Godly Character – A Gentleness GenealogySeries: GalatiansWe inherit traits passed down from our parents. Some of the ways we are like our parents come from genetics; we actually inherit physical features or traits directly. Other ways we resemble our parents come from learned behaviors gleaned from all the time we’ve spent together over the years.In some ways, this mirrors what happens on the spiritual level as well. There are things we inherit spiritually when we come to believe in Jesus as our Savior, in particular, the Fruit of the Spirit. These 9 elements of spiritual fruit are ways in which we reflect the nature of Christ. But, that’s not the only way we grow in Christ-likeness. Just as with our earthly parents, we also grow to resemble our Savior by way of learned behavior.This message looks at a few different examples of gentleness in Scripture to help us see that this is part of our spiritual genealogy: 1) Jesus is Gentle with Us; 2) Paul Chose Gentleness with Those in the Church; 3) Walk in a Manner Worthy of the Lord.We need to be gentle, just like Jesus & Paul.Galatians 5:23May 18, 2025To watch the video of this message, click here.

May 11, 2025Make Your Mama ProudSeries: Mother's DayFew things please a parent more than to see their child succeeding, making wise choices, and doing right things. Unsurprisingly, many of the same things that please parents also please God. Like our earthly parents, our Heavenly Father wants to see us learn and grow in doing the right things. One of the things God wants to grow in us is wisdom. Wisdom is the right application of knowledge. It is the ability to correctly use truth, knowledge, experience, insight, or common sense.In Proverbs 23;15-25, Solomon seeks to provide wisdom and insight into life and conduct. What stands out are 5 things a wise heart does: 1) A Wise Heart Uses Right Speech; 2) A Wise Heart Has a Right Focus; 3) A Wise Heart Makes Right Choices; 4) A Wise Heart Listens to Right Counsel; 5) A Wise Heart Results in Gladness & Rejoicing.Cultivate wisdom in the core of your being.Proverbs 23:15-25May 11, 2025Mother's DayTo watch the video of this message, click here.

May 4, 2025Growing in Godliness – Being Faithful is Being FruitfulSeries: GalatiansWhen you think of someone who is reliable and trustworthy, who is it that comes to mind? A good friend, your spouse, a coworker, another family member? I hope we all have people in our lives who we regard as dependable, people we could count on in any sort of situation. Someone who is trustworthy, reliable, and dependable is someone we would call faithful. Of course the one we rightly think of as the ultimate example of faithfulness is God. But, God desires for us to be faithful as well.In a personal letter the apostle John wrote to a dear friend we see a fine example of functional faithfulness. There are two areas of faithfulness that John commends Gaius for: 1) His faithfulness in following God’s Truth, and 2) His faithfulness in caring for others.We need to faithfully follow God’s truth and faithfully care for others.Galatians 5:22May 4, 2024To watch the video of this message, click here.

Apr 27, 2025Growing in Godly Character – How Good is Good Enough?Series: GalatiansGoodness as a part of the Fruit of the Spirt, is not a matter of how good we have to be to get into heaven. It is about the goodness of Christ showing through our lives and impacting the lives of others. It is God calling and equipping us to demonstrate His goodness to others.As we seek better understanding of this aspect of the Fruit of the Spirit, I thought it might be helpful for us to ask & answer 3 questions about goodness together this morning: 1) What is Goodness According to God? 2) Can I Really Show God’s Goodness to Others? 3) How Can I Grow in Goodness?God wants His goodness to grow in you as you share it with those around you.Galatians 5:22Apr. 27, 2025To watch the video of this message, click here.
