Sermons About Purpose
Ecclesiastes 1
Solomon, the wisest, richest, and most influential man to ever live, spent years pursuing the meaning of life. He looked into everything done under the sun, and he has this to report: life under the sun is meaningless toil. His frank look at life under the sun sobers us up, removing our vain illusions about life, and prepares us to hope in what will not disappoint.

The Mission Of God
What does it mean to be missional? It means everything we do has purpose and is in support of a mission. God has a mission that began the moment he laid the foundations of creation.

Engage 1
How many of us have missed out on having something astounding become part of our life simply because we didn’t take the first step? Or after taking the first step, fail to persevere until fulfillment had been gained? God has created each of us to have a life He describes as abundant. More than success, God is referring to fulfillment. This fulfilling, abundant life is discovered as we first engage in a relationship with Jesus and then engage in a life that lives out and shares His good news, the gospel. Come and learn how to engage with Jesus, His work here on earth and your abundant and purpose-filled life.

Are You Chosen to Follow Jesus?
What was the real issue in this story? It was about being chosen by God. The Hebrews were chosen from all the nations of the world to be God's special people. Similarly, the NT teaches us that all followers of Jesus Christ, both Jews and Gentiles, are chosen by God to be His special people in these last days of time. Instead of choosing only one ethnic group to save, God chooses people from all ethnic groups. God chooses Jews and Gentiles from all over the world to be His chosen people. These people are chosen to follow the Messiah. Again, they are not chosen because they are intrinsically better than anybody else. In fact, they are sinners like everybody else. Instead, they are chosen on the same basis that God chose Abraham; they are chosen because of their trusting, obedient faith in God. They believe God's word and they accept God's Messiah--God's own Son, Jesus--as their personal Savior and Lord. I will briefly explain three implications of being one of God's chosen people.

Let's Get Creative!
In the beginning, God created. We were created in the image of the Creator. Creativity is part of our makeup. It’s what makes us human. We were created to create. It pleases God when we use our creativity to His glory.
