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 5:16-26 – 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 3:1-25 – 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 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…
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 13 – Samson (part 1) – The God of the Impossible
Do you have an “impossible” situation in your life? A sin you can’t conquer? A health problem that is beyond your control? A relationship struggle that won’t get better? In this message, Pastor Kyle looks at Judges 13 and shows that nothing is impossible for God. And since nothing is impossible for him, we should not lose hope. God is a God of hope!
