One Big Problem. Preacher: Noah Soistmann June 30, 2021 Main idea - Our own sinfulness stands between us and true life. (vv. 15-18) In our flesh we cannot desire to do what is good. (vv.19-25) Sin needs to be viewed appropriately. Questions: Do you feel like you are currently trying to find life in places that will only bring disappointment? Do you remember your life before Jesus? What did you think about sin during that time? Do you ever view sin as not a big deal or only a minor issue? What does this text show us about the reality of our sin? Is there any sin that you need to turn from today? What encouragement do you get from the truth of verse 1 of Romans 8?

Questions: What are examples of power without goodness? What are things that remind you of the greatness of God? Where have you seen the goodness of God? Where is it hard to believe the goodness of God? What are things that make you doubt the greatness of God?

Warning Labels Preacher: Max Janusch James: 4:13-5:6 Main Idea: The riches of this world will bankrupt you. Most of us don’t like thinking about the fact that our days are numbered. We’d rather just live day today like nothing will end. However, there’s an irony that as we consider the end we handle our plans and our money differently. We manage them with God in mind. Questions: What are some silly warning labels you have seen? Have you ever been sorry for ignoring a warning label? What is the warning to the first group of people? In what ways have you lived like God doesn’t exist? What does it look live to live with God in mind? How does it change what we think/do/feel? What is the warning to the second group of people? What was their outlook on money? How do you view money & stuff? Do you find a root of greed inside of you? How can we view our ‘stuff’ with an eternal perspective? How would that change what you pursue?

What are the three things you want most? Is that different from the three things you need most? It's a hard question and what we want is often different from what we need. God is not a genie, and prayers are not wishes, but as we dive into Paul's prayer for the church in Philippi we'll see that there are three things that he prays earnestly for, for all Christians. It's three things we need, and three things God wants for us and will work in us.

The End is Near Obadiah 1:15-21 Preacher: Sam Cassese The end of the world. There's a quiet piece in all of us that wonders how 'The End' will go. What will be the cause? Each day in the news there seems to be a new option. Stories and movies explore how things will go; nuclear warfare, incurable contagion, zombie virus, Thanos?? The Bible has its own description of 'The End' and on that day God's plan and our place is clear.

That disappointing moment when...you bite into your favorite food...and then immediately spit it back out! Something clearly went wrong. "What's in this?!" We know when something tastes bad, but more than that, we know it should taste like. When it comes to evil, it's a taste we can't bear to hold in our mouths. However, it's a spit-out-of-your-mouth experience that points us to a taste that is so good.

Lost and Found - The Lost Coin

Citizens — Thu, 24 Mar 2016 03:30:37 +0000

Big Idea: How do YOU respond? In fear, if I come clean, God will reject me. In faith, if I come clean, God will rejoice! Text (Luke 15:8-10): [8] “Or what woman, having ten silver coins, if she loses one coin, does not light a lamp and sweep the house and seek diligently until she finds it? [9] And when she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found the coin that I had lost.’ [10] Just so, I tell you, there is joy before the angels of God over one sinner who repents.” Questions: 1. Who do you know that's wandering right now? How can you reach out to them? 2. How does it make you feel that God is seeking to save you when you're lost? 3. When you sin, do you usually respond in fear or in faith?

Lost and Found - The Lost Sheep

Citizens — Thu, 24 Mar 2016 00:12:45 +0000

Big Idea: Jesus seeks to find the lost Text (Luke 15:1-7): [1] Now the tax collectors and sinners were all drawing near to hear him. [2] And the Pharisees and the scribes grumbled, saying, “This man receives sinners and eats with them.” [3] So he told them this parable: [4] “What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he has lost one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the open country, and go after the one that is lost, until he finds it? [5] And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. [6] And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep that was lost.’ [7] Just so, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.

We Are... We Forgive (Bad Blood)

Citizens — Thu, 03 Mar 2016 04:32:06 +0000

We Forgive Big Idea: How can you demand others pay their debt when Jesus paid yours? Questions: 1. What ways do you tend to react when someone wrongs you? Does it change when it's someone who is close to you? 2. Do you find it more painful when the person who wrongs you is a "brother", a family member in the family of God? 3. What was the point of Jesus' story? What part of the parable stood out you you? 4. Are there people in your life you need to forgive? Text (Matthew 18:21-35): 21 Then Peter came up and said to him, “Lord, how often will my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? As many as seven times?” 22 Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you seven times, but seventy-seven times. 23 “Therefore the kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who wished to settle accounts with his servants. 24 When he began to settle, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents. 25 And since he could not pay, his master ordered him to be sold, with his wife and children and all that he had, and payment to be made. 26 So the servant fell on his knees, imploring him, ‘Have patience with me, and I will pay you everything.’ 27 And out of pity for him, the master of that servant released him and forgave him the debt. 28 But when that same servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii, and seizing him, he began to choke him, saying, ‘Pay what you owe.’ 29 So his fellow servant fell down and pleaded with him, ‘Have patience with me, and I will pay you.’ 30 He refused and went and put him in prison until he should pay the debt. 31 When his fellow servants saw what had taken place, they were greatly distressed, and they went and reported to their master all that had taken place. 32 Then his master summoned him and said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you pleaded with me. 33 And should not you have had mercy on your fellow servant, as I had mercy on you?’ 34 And in anger his master delivered him to the jailers, until he should pay all his debt. 35 So also my heavenly Father will do to every one of you, if you do not forgive your brother from your heart.”

We Are... We Confess

Citizens — Thu, 04 Feb 2016 04:18:11 +0000

We Confess Text (1 John 1:5-10): 5 This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. 6 If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. 7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. 8 If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

We Are... We Give

Citizens — Thu, 21 Jan 2016 04:31:22 +0000

We Give 2 Corinthians 9:6-13 6 The point is this: whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. 7 Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. 8 And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that having all sufficiency in all things at all times, you may abound in every good work. 9 As it is written, “He has distributed freely, he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures forever.” 10 He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your seed for sowing and increase the harvest of your righteousness. 11 You will be enriched in every way to be generous in every way, which through us will produce thanksgiving to God. 12 For the ministry of this service is not only supplying the needs of the saints but is also overflowing in many thanksgivings to God. 13 By their approval of this service, they will glorify God because of your submission that comes from your confession of the gospel of Christ, and the generosity of your contribution for them and for all others

We Are... We Read

Citizens — Thu, 21 Jan 2016 01:08:31 +0000

We Read Text (Psalm 1): Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; 2 but his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he meditates day and night. 3 He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers. 4 The wicked are not so, but are like chaff that the wind drives away. 5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous; 6 for the Lord knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.
