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!

Galatians 2:11-21 – Living The Crucified Life
In Galatians 2:20, Paul writes, “I have been crucified with Christ.” But what exactly does that mean? How can a person live the crucified life? In this sermon, Pastor Kyle explains what it means to live as someone who has been crucified with Christ. It begins with having a proper understanding of what it means to be justified. Only once you have a proper understanding of being justified can you begin to live out the crucified life. Since you have…
Galatians 2:1-10 – Making The Gospel Visible
Some things you just can’t keep to yourself. In this sermon, Pastor Kyle shares about how the gospel is one of those things. If you have been truly saved, then it is something that you will want to share. In addition to this, the true gospel in your life will “shine” out in other ways. We will see several of these ways that Paul mentions in Galatians 2:1-10. If it is important to you, then you will WANT to share…
Galatians 1:10-24 – From Terrorist to Missionary
In verses 10-24, Paul shares about how his life was transformed from being a terrorist into a missionary. He was full of hate and ended up full of love and hope. What made the difference? In this sermon, Pastor Kyle shares the key ingredient to a changed life and then how it applies to those who have been a Christian for a long time. The basic message of the gospel is one that we are called to live out. Sermon…
Galatians 1:1-9 – No Other Gospel
This is the first sermon in our new series through the Letter to the Galatians! In this first part, we see Paul explain how important the gospel message is and that some folks were trying to add to the message. Pastor Kyle shows that to add to the gospel message is to essentially cancel the gospel message. This letter was given 2000 years ago but is still very applicable to us as well. We often gravitate toward adding or subtracting…
Judges 19-21 – Don’t Do This On Your Own
In this last sermon in the book of Judges, we see people living their own way. They have their own morality and their own “right” and “wrong”. Obviously, this leads to all sorts of problems. Pastor Kyle shows why we need to stick to Scripture as the truth and make Jesus the fixed point of our life. Judges ends in a very sour way and the same will happen to us if we live apart from God and his direction…
Judges 17-18 – Homemade Religion
In this strange story in Judges 17-18, we see a man named Micah creating a homemade version of following after God. In the end, this results in a lot of trouble for him. In this sermon, Pastor Kyle shows how we often make our own homemade religion and how it ends in trouble for us as well. Homemade smoothies are good! Homemade religions are bad.

Judges 16 – Samson (part 3) – Sin and the Spirit
Up to this point, Samson has gotten away with his sinful lifestyle. In this chapter, it finally catches up with him and he pays a very big price. In this sermon, Pastor Kyle shows the danger of sin, and in particular, how it can impact your intimacy with God. Is that sin worth losing intimacy with God? Sin is appealing, but it will hurt us in the long run. Sermon Clip The message notes for the sermon can be…
Judges 14-15 – Samson (part 2) – God-Ordained Pain
Why would God use a sinful man like Samson? Multiple times in our passage it says that the “spirit of the Lord” was upon him, even when he was in fits of rage, killing other people. In this sermon, Pastor Kyle talks about how God used sinful Samson for a bigger purpose… to stir up conflict between Israel and the Philistines. This conflict started the process of breaking Israel free from captivity even when they did not want to be…
