Sabbath Rest as Cultural Resistance - Pastor Daniel Nelms

Genesis 2:1-3
Our culture pressures us to be busy. Jesus wants to give us rest. We can experience Jesus more if we set aside some time each week to rest and fellowship with Him. By surrendering a time of contemplation before God, we are renewed physically, mentally, and spiritually. It's a glimpse of eternity.

2 Corinthians 4:1-18
The temporal things of life will eventually fail. By fixing our eyes on Christ, we're able to be renewed in the unseen things that are eternal. He set the example, by extending grace, choosing a path of vulnerability, and seeking the highest interest of others. That's what is pleasing to God: not power plays, but shepherding hearts.

Deuteronomy 6:1-9
Listening to God is critical to becoming fervent for serving the Lord. It comes by 1) Reading and praying through the Bible, 2) Walking in the Spirit, 3) Inserting yourself into Christian community. If we want spiritual renewal, we must not selectively hear & obey God.
(This recording begins with the pre-sermon worship.)

1 Samuel 1:1-20
When we are broken or discouraged, we may find it hard to pray, especially when answers don't come right away. As we study the story of Hannah, we can be encouraged. Brokenness is a yielded heart open before God, emptied of pride and bitterness. We can rediscover God's love, mercy and forgiveness.

Ephesians 1:15-23
Mankind is in search of paradise and peace. The death of Jesus on the cross occurred for our sake, yet it was the resurrection that proved the truth and power of Christ. We can walk today in newness of life, because of that resurrection power. We find paradise in Him.

Resisting the Good News of Jesus - Pastor Daniel Nelms

Luke 9:28-48
As we look at the account of Palm Sunday, we see those who recognized Jesus for who he was, and others who did not. The proud religious people resisted the Good News, while the humble experienced it's power. A consistent hunger for Jesus will keep us kingdom-focused and kingdom-powered. Are you desperate for God?

The Possibilities of a Praying Church - Pastor Daniel Nelms

Sunday Mar 26, 2023
Acts 12:1-17
We tend to put God in boxes, and forget the mystery of God. That can affect our prayer life. His mysteries are beyond our understanding. After we let God out of our boxes, we become freer in prayer. Our light will stay dim if we don't commit ourselves to ambition in our prayers. The lesson from the passage in Acts opens up endless possibilities for a praying church.

Luke 11:1-13
In order to experience spiritual renewal, we need to take time to talk with God, not just to Him. As we see in the Lord's Prayer, that involves prayers of gratitude, and of lamenting, as well as petitions and intercessions. Be open with Him. Bring all that you have to God.

The Power of Prayer - Pastor Jim DiBiaso

James 5:13-18
If we are to experience a life of renewal, we need to be involved in the discipline of prayer. The power of prayer does not reside in the words that we speak or in the rituals we follow, but in the person and work of Jesus Christ. Allow the Spirit of Jesus to move in you as you worship God and intercede for others.
