Sermons on Discipleship
We talk about when we need to bring bad news, and how Jesus really is good news. Sermon Scripture: Matthew 10:34–42 “Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to set a man against his father,…
We continue with our Epiphany series, Made (for Discipleship) as we talk about the “contagion” of the Gospel. Sermon Scripture: Matthew 4:12–25 Now when he heard that John had been arrested, he withdrew into Galilee. And leaving Nazareth he went and lived in Capernaum by the sea, in the territory of Zebulun and Naphtali, so…
We start off our MADE sermon series talking about how we are made to Behold Jesus and to celebrate the relationship we have with Him, how He invites us to “Come and see” Him and where He is. Sermon Scripture: John 1:29–42 The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold, the…
We talk about integrity and how we are called to integrity, but how Jesus’ integrity covers us even when ours is lacking. Sermon Scripture: Luke 14:25–35 Now great crowds accompanied him, and he turned and said to them, “If anyone comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and…
We wrap up our “Valued” sermon series talking about the hardest thing we could do, and how the hardest thing we can do is follow Jesus on the narrow way, but that He makes it accessible to us, and personalizes it to us. Sermon Scripture: Luke 13:22–30 He went on his way through towns and…
We continue our Valued series by looking at the concepts of anxiety and faith. Sermon Scriptures: Luke 12:22–34 And he said to his disciples, “Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat, nor about your body, what you will put on. For life is more than food, and…
We continue our “valued” series by taking a look at the story of the Good Samaritan, but almost ignoring the Samaritan character and focusing on the character who is really important to Jesus, the young lawyer. Sermon Scripture: Luke 10:25–37 And behold, a lawyer stood up to put him to the test, saying, “Teacher, what shall…
We continue our “Valued” series on discipleship by considering the singleminded discipleship that we are called to while considering the singleminded salvation that Jesus won for us. Sermon Scripture: Luke 9:51–62 When the days drew near for him to be taken up, he set his face to go to Jerusalem. And he sent messengers ahead…
We kick off our “Valued” sermon series by talking about the first (but not last) step in our discipleship as we consider the sins and the evil that we need God to remove from our lives just as Jesus expelled demons from people. Sermon Scripture: Luke 8:26–39 Then they sailed to the country of the…
We continue our Call and Response series by looking at the call to discipleship and how we respond to God’s call by becoming little Matthiases ourselves. Sermon Scripture: Acts 1:12–26 Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a Sabbath day’s journey away. And when they had entered, they…
