Sermons on The Gospel (Page 7)
Acts 1:1-11 – Jesus Ascends… Now What?
The disciples had spent three years with Jesus, but by the end of this passage he would no longer be with them physically. What were they to do once Jesus left? Sit back and wait? Hide from the world? Verse 8 gives us the answer: “Be my witnesses!” In this sermon, Pastor Kyle talks about the importance of being a witness for Christ and how we go about being a witness. We are not called to live a life of…
Exodus 12:21-23 – What’s The Big Deal With Easter?
In this Easter Sunday sermon, Pastor Kyle answers the question, “What’s The Big Deal With Easter?” Why is Easter usually the most attended day at church? Why not Cinco De Mayo or Valentine’s Day? It all comes down to the significance of Easter, which Pastor Kyle explains by looking at the story of Passover in Exodus 12. Just as the blood of a lamb was required for the angel of death to “pass over” a house, the blood of Jesus…
Luke 5:17-26 – Are You A Fan or Contributor?
In Luke 5, several friends work hard for the sake of one. Pastor Kyle points out several things that we can learn from them as we reach out to our “one” as well. This is the second of two sermons in the “Who’s Your One?” series. The friends of the paralytic encountered an obstacle when trying to help him. The door to Jesus was completely blocked so they went through the roof instead. When we encounter obstacles in getting our…
Matthew 11:28-30 – Finding Spiritual Peace
We live in a busy, anxious world. And with all the craziness around us, how do we have peace? In the first of a three week series, Pastor Kyle preaches from Matthew 11:28-30 and talks about how we can find spiritual peace. “Jesus calls us to ‘Come to him!’ Not religion, not good works, not even church. First and foremost, we must first come to him! Only then will our lives be changed and only then will we find true…
Matthew 13:47-50 – What Is Hell Like?
No one likes to talk about hell, but it is a real place with real dangers. Therefore, we must talk about it and understand the dangers of it. And when we do, we will gain a better understand of the impact that salvation can have on those who turn to Jesus Christ. In today’s sermon, Pastor Kyle preaches from Matthew 13:47-50 on the dangers of hell. “There are two groups, and one of them is going to hell.” Sermon Clip…
Revelation 21:1-8 – What Is Heaven Like?
There is a lot of “fake news” out there about heaven. It is in a cloud. It will be boring. In this message, pastor Kyle preaches from Revelation 21:1-8 to give some real information about what heaven will be like.

Luke 23:39-43 – What Happens After Death?
We often don’t like to think about death. For many, it seems scary. Why is that? Pastor Kyle suggests that the reason it seems scary is because we do not have a proper understanding of it. In this sermon from Luke 23:39-43, Pastor Kyle explains what will happen in the moments after death and what that means for us today. One day we will all stand for God to be judged. And the Bible says we have all sinned and fallen…
1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 – Our Hope Is In Heaven
Christians talk about heaven all the time, but how does the future idea of heaven benefit us who are still alive? What good is heaven for the busy mom or dad, a retired person, or a student? In this sermon, Pastor Kyle looks at 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 and shows us that heaven can give us hope on this earth, even in the present. The reality is that life does not always go our way. Bad things happen. People die. And…
Isaiah 9:6 – Who Is Your Prince of Peace?
This is the final message in our series looking at the four names given to Jesus in Isaiah 9:6. In this message, Pastor Kyle looks at what it means for Jesus to be the Prince of Peace and the implications for those who follow him in the present. Jesus is our Prince of Peace! He has made a way for us to have peace with God. Will you turn to him today? Sermon Clip (The teaching sheet can be downloaded…
Isaiah 9:6 – Mighty God, Everlasting Father
Today’s sermon looks at two more names of Jesus given in Isaiah 9:6. As the mighty God and everlasting father, Jesus deserves our best. Are you treating him in that way or has your life drifted away from him? As the mighty God and everlasting Father, Jesus deserves our entire life, not just part of it.

Isaiah 9:6 – Our Wonderful Counselor
In Isaiah 9:6, we see a prophecy from hundreds of years ago that Jesus would come as a baby and be our our wonderful counselor. Since he is the wonderful counselor, are we listening to him and obeying what he says? To ignore the Bible is to ignore the Wonderful Counselor, therefore we must be intentional about listening to Jesus!

Hebrews 13:7-25 – How Do I Live A Life Of Worship? (Part 2)
Focusing on verses 7-18, Pastor Kyle continues talking about how a person lives a life of worship. In this second part, we learn about the importance of keeping the Gospel central and obeying your spiritual leaders. Good spiritual leaders help you grow closer to God and obey him more. They do not seek their own gain but instead selflessly shepherd you. SERMON CLIP (The teaching sheet can be downloaded by clicking on the above “save” button)
