Genesis 2:24 – Does God Hate Sex?

Sex gives us an earthly picture of the ecstasy of heaven! Sermon Clip The message notes for…

Luke 2:8-20 – The Glory of the Lord
Three times in this short passage the word “glory” is mentioned. Why does this word come up so often? The answer to this question is why Christmas is so special. In this sermon, Pastor Kyle talks about what glory is and why it is so important. The answer has profound implications about how we should live our lives. Not only are we called to proclaim his glory, we are called to live out his glory in our lives! Sermon Clip…
Galatians 6:11-18 – The Cross-Centered Life
In this last part of the last chapter of Galatians, Paul writes out with his own hand his final message. In one way, he is summarizing the entire book. But in another way, he is emphasizing the most important part. He calls the church to boast only in the cross of Jesus Christ. But what does it mean to do this? How does one boast in the cross? In this sermon, Pastor Kyle shows what it means to boast in…
Galatians 6:6-10 – We Reap What We Sow
As we approach the end of our series through Galatians, Pastor Kyle looks at verses 6-10 where Paul says we reap what we sow. In this sermon, we will look at what that means for our lives and why it is so urgent for today. That’s because your actions now point you in the direction of your life in the future. So if you want to be godly in five years, then you must be intentional about it today. NOTE:…
Galatians 5:25-6:5 – Gospel-Centered Relationships
Paul continues talking about living in the Spirit, but in chapter 6 he begins getting into the “nitty gritty.” He talks about how Christians are called to help others who have fallen into sin. This is hard to do though. How do you confront someone about sin? Thankfully, Paul also gives some guidelines for doing this. In this sermon, Pastor Kyle shares what these guidelines are and the mindset we should have when we help people who have fallen into…
Galatians 5:16-26 – The Walking Dead
We are all walking somewhere. As Christians we are called to walk in the direction of freedom. But how exactly do we do this? What does it look like? In this sermon, Pastor Kyle looks at Galatians 5:16-26 and answers those questions. He shows what walking in the Spirit looks like and does not look like. Do you know if the direction you are walking is the right one? You can’t walk in different directions at the same time. Sermon…
Galatians 5:1-15 – Living In Gospel Freedom
Even though Christians have been set free by Jesus Christ, we can still act in a way that will put us back into slavery. In this sermon, Pastor Kyle gives us three things to remember from Galatians 5:1-15. Each of these three things are important in helping us walk in freedom, not slavery. Faith in Jesus Christ is the filter through which our other actions and beliefs go through. Sermon Clip The message notes for the sermon can be…
Galatians 4:21-31 – Living In Trust
In this passage, Paul looks at the two different ways that Abraham’s children were born. One through Hagar, a servant, and the other through Sarah, his wife. Hagar conceived and gave birth when Abraham became impulsive and did not trust God. Sarah later conceived and gave birth through God’s power. Paul shows us that we need keep our trust in God’s promises. When we do not, we put ourselves back into slavery. Will you live a life of trust or…
Galatians 4:8-20 – Three Signs You Are Wasting Your Life
None of us want to get to the end of our life and think, “I haven’t accomplished much at all! I’ve wasted my life!” Yet that is the fear that Paul shares about the church in Galatia. He fears that he may have wasted his time with them. In this sermon, we will learn from the church of Galatia and see three signs that we are wasting our life as well. Let’s not do what the Galatians did! Do you…
Galatians 3:26-4:7 – What Does It Mean To Be A Son Of God?
In Galatians 3:26, Paul says that those who have put their faith in Jesus are sons of God. That sounds great, but what does it mean to be a son of God? In this sermon, Pastor Kyle explains what it means and what the implications are for a Christian. Being a son of God is not only an amazing privilege, but it also shows just how much God loves us. Since we are a son of God we should aim…
Galatians 3:1-25 – Faith: The Means By Which We Live
In this sermon, Pastor Kyle shows that faith in Jesus Christ is not the start point of the Christian life, it IS the Christian life. We are called to live by faith every day. This life of faith should have a dramatic impact on how we live. We don’t start our life out with faith and then move on. We dive deeper and deeper into faith with Jesus Christ!
