Psalm 102 – Praying When Life Is A Mess
Let’s be honest, life can feel like a mess sometimes. And when that happens, the WORST thing you can do is run from God. Instead, you should run to God. In this sermon, Pastor Kyle looks at Psalm 102 and shows how we can come to God in prayer when life is a mess. Through the Psalm we see that we should come to God desperately, honestly, and confidently. So when life is tough, let’s go to God! Our God…
Psalm 91 – Big Fears, Bigger God
We are all afraid of something. Whether it be snakes, death, or health issues, fears come in many different forms. In Psalm 91, we see a number of different fears that a person would experience in the ancient world. Yet in the midst of all those big fears, Psalm 91 shows that God is bigger than each of them. In this sermon, Pastor Kyle explains what this means for us and then spends time answering a very important question regarding…
Psalm 84 – There’s No Place Like Home
In the Wizard of Oz, Dorothy decided at the end that “there’s no place like home.” She realized that she would be most happy back with her family on her farm. In Psalm 84, the Sons of Korah give a similar sentiment, but about being near God. As ones how worked in the temple, they wanted to inspire others to come and be near God. In this sermon, Pastor Kyle explores this idea and shows that there is truly no…
Psalm 73 – The Danger of Comparing
We’ve all done it. We look at what our neighbors or friends have and we think, “Why can’t I have that?!?” In this sermon, Pastor Kyle shares how this was a struggle even back in biblical times. Asaph was envious of what he saw and wrote about it in Psalm 73. Thankfully, through looking to God, he caught himself before he slipped completely. Are you envious of their possessions, yet forgetting their fate? Sermon Clip The message notes for…
Psalm 67 – Blessed to be a Blessing
In this very short psalm, we see one very important truth: God blesses us in order to be a blessing to other people. Pastor Kyle shows us that we should use the many blessings God has given us, both physical and spiritual, to be a blessing to the world. Don’t let the blessings you have receive stop with you. Instead, use them to reach the world with the message of Jesus Christ. As Pastor Kyle mentions at the beginning of…
Psalm 51 – How To Repent
In the last sermon, we looked at repentance and forgiveness from a spiritual perspective. This time we look at repentance from the human side of things. Psalm 51 gives us an “inside look” at David’s thinking when he repented of his sins. As we examine how David repented, we can learn from it and know how to do it more effectively ourselves. Look to God to restore your life! Sermon Clip The message notes for the sermon can be…
Psalm 51 and 2 Samuel 11-12 – How to Find Forgiveness
In the introduction of Psalm 51, we are told that it was written after the prophet Nathan confronted David about his sins with Bathsheba. In this sermon, Pastor Kyle looks at the story leading up to Psalm 51. He shows that, while it may be considered “basic,” knowing and living out Christ’s forgiveness is incredibly important for each person. Your sins may be great, but what Christ did was even greater!

Psalms 42-43 – God and Depression
Depression impacts a large amount of Americans. Rich people get depressed. Poor people get depressed. Famous people and less known people. Many presidents have struggled with it. In Psalm 42-43, we see that even people that follow God experience depression. In this sermon, Pastor Kyle shows us what the psalmist did in the midst of depression and what we can do the same in our own lives as well. Even when our minds are telling us there is no hope,…
Psalm 30 – Let’s Praise God
In Psalm 30, we see how David praised God in the good times. He was saved from a difficult situation so David praised God. However, in the second part of the Psalm, we see that David went through a difficult time. Yet even in the difficult time, David still praised God! Therefore, we can learn that it is important to praise God in the good AND in the bad. In this sermon, Pastor Kyle shows us why this is so…
Psalm 23 – God Is Your Shepherd
Psalm 23 is perhaps one of the most well known passages in the entire Bible. Not only is it loved by Christians, but many people who do not follow God know this psalm. Clearly, it has struck a nerve with people around the world. In this sermon, Pastor Kyle examines the beloved “23rd Psalm” and shows the implications of God being our shepherd. Knowing this should help us understand just how much God loves us and have confidence that we…
Psalm 19 – God Speaks To Us
In Psalm 19, David gives two ways that God speaks to us. He speaks to us through creation, telling us about his handiwork and glory. He also speaks to us through Scripture, in which we learn more about who he is and what he has done for us. We should be listening to what he says in both ways. In this sermon, Pastor Kyle explains how we can better listen to him through the ways that he is speaking to…
Psalm 1:1-6 – The Blessed Life
Do you want to live a blessed life? Do you want to have deep joy and happiness that only comes from knowing you have a relationship with God and that your sins are forgiven? In this first chapter in Psalms, we are told how we can have a blessed life. In this sermon, Pastor Kyle explains what it means to be blessed (and what it does NOT mean) and what we are called to do in order to be blessed.…
