Sermons on The Gospel (Page 6)
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 23:2-3 – 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…
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…
2 Corinthians 5:20-6:2 – Today Is The Day Of Salvation
Guest speaker, Pastor Rich Clegg, shares a powerful message on 2 Corinthians 5:20 – 6:2. Behold, now is the favorable time; behold, now is the day of salvation.
Acts 4:10-12 – No Other Name
Associate Pastor Gary Rowe talks about how salvation is only found in Jesus Christ. And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.
Acts 4:1-22 – A Spirit-Empowered Defense Against Persecution
Persecution of Christians is happening all around the world. While it is not as prevalent here in the United States, there is still a lot we can learn from this passage on persecution. Pastor Kyle gives four “rules” from Acts 4:1-22 that will help us stand up against persecution and live out the Christian life. A person with a correct understanding of who Jesus is will have far less fear about what man can do to him. Sermon Clip (The…
Acts 3:1-26 – The Purpose of Miracles
What do we make of all those healings in the Bible? What do we make of healings today? In this sermon, Pastor Kyle looks at Acts 3:1-26, which is about a lame man being healed. He then shows how Peter’s explanation of the miracle sheds light on how we should understand them. The purpose of miracles are to point people to Jesus Christ. Not to make you famous. Not to use as a way to get donations. They are to…
Acts 2:42-47 – Four Actions of a Spirit-Empowered Christian
How do you know if you are doing well spiritually? In Acts 2:42-47, we see Christians devoting themselves to four things. While this is not an exhaustive list, these four actions are important for all Christians to focus on. In this sermon, Pastor Kyle explains what these four actions are and why they are so important. Do you want God to work mightily in your life? Do you want others to be in “awe” of what God is doing? Do…
Acts 2:13-41 – Peter’s First Sermon
After the events at Pentecost, all the bystanders stood around, wondering, “What in the world just happened?” So weak Peter get’s up and preaches a bold, powerful sermon. What made the difference? Just 50 days prior he denies Christ three times, but now he is boldly proclaiming him. In this sermon, Pastor Kyle gives two things that made all the difference in Peter and can make all the difference in us as well. Peter was totally changed after he witnessed…
Acts 2:1-12 – The Coming of the Holy Spirit
What’s the big deal with Pentecost? And what exactly does it all mean? In this sermon, Pastor Kyle explains the events of Pentecost and shows the significance of the events and what they mean for Christians today. Pentecost completely revolutionized Christianity and the impact is still felt today. Just like the invention of the airplane revolutionized travel, the events of Pentecost revolutionized Christianity.
