Blessings Through Trust - A Deeper Dive

God is preparing us for a chance to make a difference in the kingdom through every chapter of our lives, whether we know it or not. This does not mean that if we don’t answer the call, God’s plan will fail. God’s plans are bigger than us. It simply means that we wouldn’t be doing our part as expected, possibly at our own expense. God’s goal will be completed - you can count on that.

Better Attitudes - A Deeper Dive

Positive thinking doesn’t happen automatically. Like the other topics we’ve covered in this sermon series, we must choose positive thinking. It is an active trait, not a passive one. Having a positive mindset allows us to see God’s will. Positive thoughts turn into positive insight, which turns into positive action.

Better Attitudes - A Deeper Dive

By definition, humility is having or showing a modest or low estimate of one’s importance. Having humility doesn’t mean minimizing or apologizing for our God-given talents. It means not placing ourselves above others because of those talents. Humility is not a passive trait. It’s an active choice - a deliberate decision to remain grounded.

Lessons in Faith and Fruitfulness - A Deeper Dive

We make resolutions, declarations, and promises that this year will be different. But isn’t it strange how so many of the problems we faced last year - the ones we were going to overcome - are the same ones we’re facing in the new year? Part of it is due to circumstances. Part of it is likely due to hoping for change but not taking action.

Characters of the Nativity - A Deeper Dive

Despite Joseph’s responsibility in God’s plan, his role in the story is almost secondary. He remains primarily in the background, but his actions speak volumes about his character and faith. Joseph’s obedience, humility, and unwavering sacrificial love make for a powerful witness story.

Characters of the Nativity - A Deeper Dive

Often, when we think of the story of the birth of Jesus, we focus on the “big three” characters: Mary, Joseph, and the baby Jesus. This week, we turn our focus to the supporting cast. Those characters that had an impact and played a role but weren’t necessarily significant enough to gain top billing.

Gathering at the Table - A Deeper Dive

While there are aspects of Communion that cause disagreement, namely the mechanics, our goal in this message is to focus on what is at the core. When we strip away how we celebrate the sacrament, the specific elements used, and who is allowed to preside and participate, it is the table that remains - the Lord’s Table.

Offended by Grace - A Deeper Dive

With this parable as a backdrop, we will discuss that despite God being so wonderful, kind, gracious, and loving, we sometimes respond to him with anger and offense rather than wonder. It seems strange that we would be offended when God is gracious and kind to others. We question why God is being so generous to them.

Last week, we unpacked the first half of the prayer. This week, we’ll dissect the remainder.
