Philippians 2:1-11

We continue our study of Philippians by looking at Chapter 2. Paul instructs the church to "do nothing out of selfish ambition, rather in humility, value others above yourselves." That is what enables unity to exist in our community. Let us consider this week how we may sacrifice our time, finances, or energy for the benefit of another.

Philippians 1:27

We begin a 4 part study of Philippians. In the first chapter, Paul admonishes the Philippians to "stand firm in the one Spirit, striving together as one for the faith of the Gospel". As believers, we may have differences, but we should be united in the message of the Gospel.

Matthew 18:11

As we live our life, we can tend to forget the value of Love, Opportunity, Soul, and Time. With help from the Lord, we can avoid losing our first love, missing our best opportunities, losing our soul, and mismanaging our time.

Luke 24:13-35

We need to be bread in the hands of Jesus: blessed, broken, given. We conclude the sermon series, being reminded that He showed His love so that we could effectively show love to the world.

Luke 22:19

We continue a series from December, entitled "Blessed, Broken, Given". The circumstances of life can sometimes break us, but the grace of God can sustain us and redeem us. Brokenness brings us openness to His transforming power.

Hebrews 3:1-6

Jesus was present at Creation, and yet He humbled himself to become a man, so that He could live perfectly among us, and then die for our sins. We explore His divine nature.

Luke 8:5-15

When we hear the Word of God, do we get distracted by the devil, the trials of life, or the pleasures of the world, or do we listen, retain, and persevere, thus producing good fruit? The Word of God, the seed, is the source of all life.

Isaiah 43:18-19

Throughout Scripture we are told to remember God's faithfulness in the past, but we are also exhorted to move forward with Him. We must not live in the experiences of the past so much, that we miss what God is doing in the present, and what He is planning for the future.

Luke 2:41-52

The Scriptures don't record much about the life of Jesus from his birth to the age of 30, but we look at an account when he was 12 years old, and discover His heart during those years. He was aware that He was to be about His heavenly Father's business. That should also be our motivation daily.

Romans 5:1-5

This Christmas, as we celebrate the birth of Jesus, we have reason to have hope, because the Savior lives. We have hope because of a future with Christ, but can also have hope in the present, because God is working in the seasons of our lives, to conform us to the image of Christ.
