Sermons About Fight
The Battle for the World
This world is enemy occupied territory. We hear the enemy's message from everyone around us; teachers, politicians, media. Even Christians, who have been freed from satan's grip, are still under his influence. We are like soldiers who have been dropped behind enemy lines; we have three options: 1. go over to the other side, 2. hide our true identity and try hard not to be noticed, or 3. engage in the fight, confident in the weapons and armour of our Lord and King. How do we fight? With the Word of God. Paul's speech to the Atheneans is nearest to our situation. We need to speak in terms that our audience relates to, using language that they understand and illustrations that they recognise. Our aim is to save these people, to turn our enemies into our friends by changing their minds and therefore their values. Love these people with God's love (and will and strength), so that they in turn will fall in love with God through us.

Conflict and Commitment - Sustainable Marriages #1
What do you want for your marriage? Want some peace? Want to feel closer? We all want a marriage that works, but let's face it, things don't always go as smoothly as we'd like. When spouses aren't in synch, things can get crazy. How do you break the conflict cycle when it gets rolling? Studies show that communication is enormously significant in developing marital stability, so how do we grow in our talks with one another? We want to experience sexuality that is beautiful and God-designed for our enjoyment. We want to love more deeply at the end than we did at the beginning. We want to pass along a family heritage of love and respect to our children. Join us as we explore what God's Word says about making marriage last.

Building and Battling
Though the community may provide personal blessings and more, the Christian community is intended to reflect a new way of being human to this world. We are to be an alternate city within San Diego, where we are demonstrating what a truly human society looks like. We are more than a support group for individuals; rather we as individuals are to gather together into a community and put on display what a society looks like when it is transformed by the Gospel. Simply, we are a counter-culture.

The Suffering of The Mission and The Call To Perseverance
This message is a call for all of us to give our lives to loving God with all our hearts and proclaim his beauty to our neighbors. It is a call that when heeded leads inevitably to weariness, discouragement and suffering. In the midst of our inevitable suffering comes the subtle temptation of Satan to return to a more comfortable life. This message is a call to fight that temptation with a vision of the glory of God that is more beautiful than the empty comforts of this world. It is a call to set our eyes upon our savior who gave up the comforts of heaven and earth to be rejected, suffer, and die for us. As we do this we will find that suffering on mission is far more satisfying then the comforts of this world.
