The Power of A Thankful Heart
Just as Americans celebrate Thanksgiving to remember what to be thankful for, God gives us plenty of opportunities to reflect and be thankful. In fact, as believers there is always something for us to be thankful for, and the victorious Christian life cannot be attained without a thankful heart.

Freedom from Footholds
A foothold is a secure position from which it is difficult to be dislodged. There is nothing Satan likes better then a foothold within a church or a home. Our Enemy is just waiting to devour and destroy us if we let him. These footholds happen when we disconnect from God. Are you looking for freedom from footholds. Freedom can only be found in Christ.

The Church in Ephesus: Revelation 2:1-7
The letter to the Ephesians in Revelation begins with a commendation. Jesus commends the Ephesians for their doctrinal purity. They have fought false teachings and have remained faithful to the truth without growing weary and giving up. Yet, though they have remained doctrinally pure, they have ceased to be faithful witnesses for Jesus because they lost her first love for Jesus. Jesus calls them to remember the depths of their sin and how much they have been forgiven. Some of us are like the prodigal son or the sinful woman in Luke 7, and we know we have been saved from a life of sin. We have been overwhelmed by his grace, but over time, the memory fades and we grow prideful and self-reliant. For others of us, the danger is that we have never had a sinful woman experience. We may not have ever felt desperate, out of control, absolutely empty, and needy. Our savior walks among his people and he sees them all. He will forgive us if we will stop trying to be perfect and simply fall at his feet and beg him for mercy. Run to the one who, though his face shown like the sun, willingly took on flesh to die on the cross in our place.

Balanced Christian Living
This sermon takes a look at what being free in Christ really means. Way too many Christians take freedom to the extreme point where they use it as an excuse for their continued sinful lifestyle. Others take such a harsh stand in tradition, religion, and legalism that they never truely live a life full of the freedom that Christ set them free to live. Most churches also seem to lack balance and being to operate way to the left or right of what the Word of God says. This sermon examines what we true freedom is in the believer’s life and how to apply Biblical principles to determine what exactly we are free to do and not to do.

Exchanging Lies for Truth
The problem with Israel is our own, it is the gap between what we believe in theory and what we believe in practice. I may agree that God is sovereign (theoretical belief), but slip into deep anxiety when I am afraid or out of control (functional disbelief). What it means to grow in grace is to see the gap narrowed between what I confess to be truth and what I functionally believe in the moment. If it’s true that behind every sin is a lie, we are able to find a road out of the rut of despair and the feeling that our emotions and actions are inevitable. Nehemiah is helping us to see the path of hope in hopelessness, joy in the midst of suffering, and courage to fight our shame and disbelief.

A Different Kind of Freedom
This weekend marks the annual celebration of our nation's independence, and it begs the question what does it mean to be free. In John 8 Jesus teaches about true freedom, not from taxation or governing bodies or law, but from sin and its consequences. In His typical topsy-turvy fasion, Jesus lets us know that to be free, we must be obedient to His teaching.
