Romans 1:15-17 – Embrace The Gospel
In this new series, Pastor Kyle talks about what it means to live the good life. Many people see “the good life” as success, money, or vacation. While there is nothing wrong with these things, we should not depend upon them for ultimate happiness. Instead, we should live a gospel-centered life and let happiness flow out of our relationship with Jesus Christ. Through the gospel we can still enjoy material things, but we will never depend upon them. A gospel-centered…
Luke 15:1-10 – A Heart For The Lost
After Jesus is criticized for spending time with the sinners, he gives three powerful parables to show that lost people matter to him. In this sermon, Pastor Kyle looks at the first two parables. Since lost people matter to Jesus, they should matter to us too. And if they matter, are they leading us to action? Caring for the lost should lead to action to reach the lost!

Psalm 23:6 – Blessings and Responsibilities in the Shepherd
In this last sermon in the Psalm 23 series, Pastor Kyle talks about how we have amazing benefits in the shepherd. We are truly blessed being part of the shepherd’s family! But with these blessings come some responsibilities as well. God wants us to spread the blessings around to other people! May we not just keep them for ourselves, but use them to touch the lives of those around us. God wants you to use the blessings he has given…
Psalm 23:5 – Don’t Get Distracted From The Shepherd
There are so many distractions out there: kids, social media, work, shopping, and so on. Because of this, it is easy to get distracted and take your eyes off the shepherd. In this sermon, Pastor Kyle examines Psalm 23:5 and discusses the solution to distractions and ways that we can keep our eyes on the shepherd. Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus! He is the answer to our distractions! Bonus Clip While this didn’t make “the cut” on Sunday morning…
Psalm 23:4 – The Shepherd Keeps Me Safe
This world is filled with a lot of scary things. Therefore, it seems strange for someone to declare that he can walk through “the valley of the shadow of death” and “fear no evil.” How can someone not fear in the midst of scary times? In this sermon, Pastor Kyle examines Psalm 23:4 and shows how the shepherd keeps us safe in the midst of scary times. However, we are not immune from every pain and suffering. Why is that?…
Psalm 23:3 – The Shepherd Leads Me
What does it mean when David says, “He leads me in paths of righteousness…”? In this sermon, Pastor Kyle examines this verse and then shows what it means for us today. Are you being led by the shepherd? Do you know HOW to be led by the shepherd? Too many of us want to be led by the shepherd, but we make no steps to learn what he is saying. The primary way that God will lead us is through…
Psalm 23:2-3 – The Shepherd Restores Me
In Psalm 23:2-3, David talks about God restoring him. Pastor Kyle looks at these words and explains what it means for God to restore us and WHY we needed to be restored in the first place. Apart from God, we all have an emptiness inside of us that we try to fill with different things. Only God will fill it. Will you turn to him today to restore you? Green pastures may not seem probable to a normal shepherd in…
Psalm 23:1 – I Am Content In My Shepherd
Psalm 23 is perhaps one of the most well-known passages in all of Scripture. But do we truly understand what it means? In this first sermon in the series, Pastor Kyle shows us how it is important to make Jesus your shepherd. When he is our shepherd, we can go through life without wanting everything. Since Jesus is the Good Shepherd, he will care for us in a way that we can be content. David does not say, “The Lord…
Acts 6:1-7 – Spirit-Empowered Growing Pains
As the church grew, things got more complicated. This caused one group to feel neglected and begin to grumble. How would they respond to these issues? In this sermon, Pastor Kyle examines how the early church dealt with these “growing pains” in Acts 6:1-7 and what we can learn from them. If a church grows, then growing pains are to be expected, and we must be ready to deal with them in the proper way. Are you going to be…
Acts 5:17-42 – A Spirit-Empowered Prison Escape
We all love a good prison escape story, but the one in Acts 5 is unique. Not only does an angel break them out, but they are told to go and keep doing the very thing that got them put into prison! In this sermon, Pastor Kyle examines the motivations behind going back out into public after “escaping.” Do we have the same passion as the apostles, even at the risk of persecution? They knew, that they knew, that they…
Acts 5:1-16 – A Spirit-Empowered Fear of God
In Acts 5:1-16, Ananias and Sapphira lie to the church and end up being put to death by God. Why did this happen? Why would God do that? In this sermon, Pastor Kyle examines this scary passage and shows that God is not one to be messed with. Do you fear God? If not, listen closely. God is love, but he is not a pushover. He must also be feared. Sermon Clip (The teaching sheet can be downloaded by clicking…
Acts 4:32-37 – A Spirit-Empowered Church
No church is perfect, but are there certain characteristics that show God is working in a church? In this sermon, Pastor Kyle looks at Acts 4:32-37 and examines the early church. In this passage, we see four ways that God was working in the church. These four traits are things that we can prayerfully seek for our church as well.
