A Reason to Rescue

By Sermons, Standalone

Who wants to take a hard look at hell? No one. And yet, Jesus spoke more consistently about the horrors of hell than any other person in the New Testament. Why did he do that? What does he want us to know about hell? And how is this supposed to change the way we live? Listen as our guest preacher, Pastor Jim Donohue, pastors us through these questions with both passion and gentleness.

The Shame He Endured; The Honor He Won

By Sermons, Standalone

What is shame? Shame is the feeling that you are fundamentally flawed, unworthy, and unacceptable—not just because of what you’ve done, but because of who you are.
Jesus was rejected by men, and rejected by God Himself, as our substitute. He bore your shame and became an outcast so that He might give to you His acceptance and make you a son or daughter of God. Listen as guest preacher Josh Pannell takes us through this passage.

The Power of Gospel Thinking

By Romans, Sermons

In 1952, Pastor Norman Vincent Peale wrote the bestselling book The Power of Positive Thinking: The book promises you that, if you drown out negative thoughts and replace them with positive thoughts about how great you are and how successful you will be, then good things will happen. Although the message was wrong, the method was biblical. In these verses, the Apostle Paul will teach us the importance of lining up our thinking with the truth that we are dead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus. Listen as Pastor Josh teaches on the power of gospel thinking.
