Message by Chris Brown on October 19, 2024. Why is there so much fighting and conflict in the Christian camp these days, and how can we find any peace and joy in the midst of it? Maybe it all has to do with the fact that we are supposed to fight…we are just fighting the wrong war with the wrong weapons. Today’s passage should help us find our way back to the true us that we were created to be and filled with the right Spirit that we were supposed to have. https://vimeo.com/1011056899 Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-217352.html

Message by Larry Osborne on October 12, 2024. What do you think of when you hear the word priest or even pastor? Odds are that only a few of us think, “Oh, that’s me!” You might be surprised at what Peter has to say about that. https://vimeo.com/1011056899 Video available on YouTube at https://youtube.com/live/WG4aWYVbUgI- Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-216808.html

Message by Chris Brown on October 5, 2024. Have you ever noticed how futile and frustrating it is to try to change the world and the people around you? Maybe that is because we are going about this all the wrong way and backwards. Today’s passage makes it crystal clear how we should be seeking to change our minds…and then watch how Christ changes our world. https://vimeo.com/1011056899 Video available on YouTube at https://youtube.com/live/C3Xxf4TqKfM- Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-216337.html

Message by Chris Brown on September 28, 2024. We kick off a new series in the book of 1 Peter looking at how to live as a Christian in a world that is anti-Christian. We will explore why we have so much suffering and trials in our lives, and how to have joy and peace in a world filled with conflict and pain.

Message by Ricky Jenkins on September 21, 2024. How do you go about loving people you don’t necessarily like? How do you show grace to people in your life who are difficult to deal with? How do you show the same love God has shown you to people who aren’t even thinking about God? Join us for a special message from guest Pastor Ricky Jenkins.

Message by Chris Brown on September 14, 2024. Today, we're delving into part 2 of what the Bible actually says about Heaven. Once again, we aim to dispel the myth that Heaven may be boring but still better than Hell. Join us as we take a deeper dive into what Jesus taught about Heaven. I guarantee that you will be more excited about it than ever before and that you will see your life here in a completely different light.

Message by Chris Brown on September 7, 2024. Of all the confusing topics in the Bible, perhaps none has been as misunderstood as Heaven. Maybe it is because Heaven is an idea and creation in almost every culture, but maybe it’s because we have never taken the time to see what the Bible actually says about Heaven. Today, we will delve into this topic, and it's going to be mind-blowing in the best way possible.

Message by Larry Osborne on August 31, 2024. Even when victory is assured, it’s seldom as easy as we thought it would be.

Message by Chris Brown on August 24, 2024. Have you ever wondered what is going to happen after we die? Is there really going to be a judgment that everyone has to go through? Is Hell a real place and why would a loving God send someone there? These questions and more will be answered in this passage as we start coming to the end of Revelation.

Message by Larry Osborne on August 17, 2024. This weekend we’ll be looking at one of the most argued about passages in the entire book of Revelation. We’ll discover it has some great news that too often gets overlooked by the arguments about the details of how it will all take place. And more importantly, we’ll learn when to argue and divide and when to chill out and let it go.

Message by Chris Brown on August 10, 2024. Text "Survey" to (844) 921-0220. This chapter is one of the most dynamic, amazing, and incredible pictures and encouragements that you could possibly find in the entire Bible.  It will let us know once and for all how this world will end, and how to know for sure that you are going to be on the right side of history.  Not only do you need to see this one for yourself, but you also have to apply it to your life as well.

Message by Chris Brown on August 3, 2024. If you have ever wondered if God is going to deal with all of the evil in the world at some point, and how He is going to do it, then this message is for you. However, this will also bring an end to all fake Christianity and phony Christians, so these two chapters will challenge us all to choose wisely what we are serving this week.

Message by TJ McDaniel on July 27, 2024. Have you ever wondered, "why doesn’t God do something about all the evil and wrong in the world?" Or, "how can a good God also be ‘wrathful’ as the Bible says?" In this weekend’s message, we’ll take an in-depth look at the answers to those questions and more as Revelation 15 and 16 walk us through the counterintuitive goodness of God’s wrath.

Message by Larry Osborne on July 20, 2024. We all fear something or someone (our peers, loss of reputation, finances, or even life itself). This weekend we’ll find out what we should fear most and why. Buck up, bring some courage, and join us as we dig into Revelation chapter 14.

Message by Larry Osborne on July 13, 2024. Ever heard about The Mark of The Beast? 666? A world leader who demands worship if you want to buy and sell?

Message by Arnold Camacho on July 6, 2024. We alone are no match for Satan, but Satan is no match for King Jesus. Jesus says we are His, that He bought us at a great price. He finds us as we are, gives us a testimony to stand on, and protects us from the sting of death. What if the reality of those truths gave us such confidence and stability that we never had to fear Satan again?

Message by Chris Brown on June 29, 2024. Have you ever wondered why you are here? Or what is the purpose of this life and how do we find real significance? Better yet, how can we win at life in a world that seems to be filled with losing? All of these answers can be found in our chapter today, and therefore hopefully in your life as well.

Message by Damean Easter on June 22, 2024. We are at the point in John’s vision where time is running out for the people of earth. The sixth trumpet has sounded, resulting in a third of the earth’s population being wiped out. Can it get any worse? The answer is yes, it does get worse, but before it does, we are given a pause in the pandemonium. Chapter 10 records that pause and it is in the pause that we see what believers are called to do when times get tough.  Video available on YouTube at https://youtu.be/b-WGug75zl4 - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-208578.html

Message by Chris Brown on June 15, 2024. What in the world is a loving God doing bringing so much destruction on the earth? Or maybe a better question would be: how far would God take pain and suffering to save a life? These two horrifically vivid and graphic chapters about the end of the world may just bring the hope and encouragement that we need today.

Message by Larry Osborne on June 8, 2024. It’s easy to get caught up trying to figure out all the details of the symbolism in the Book of Revelation.

Message by Arnold Camacho on June 1, 2024. Expectations, we all have them. Have you ever wondered what we inadvertently expect from God? There could be moments in following Jesus that we begin to believe that the Christian life is about comfort and riding the wave of salvation all the way to the shores of heaven. Yet, Jesus tells us of a different kind of life. In fact, He warns us of trouble. This week we will not only hear the warning of trouble, but we will also be given a glimpse into the realities of tribulation. However, Jesus is still on the throne and one day He will bring an end to all tribulation.

Message by Chris Brown on May 25, 2024. Our culture seems to be fascinated with the spiritual realm and the understanding that there are supernatural forces around us, or amongst us, that we cannot see. In this message, a door has been opened to that world for us to get a glimpse of these spiritual beings, and to walk away with a picture that may just change the way we see this world forever.

Message by Larry Osborne on May 18, 2024. Who wouldn’t want to be blessed with health, wealth, and success? It obviously beats the alternative.

Message by Chris Brown on May 11, 2024. How do you know if your Christian life is dead or alive?  Or maybe a better question could be: How do you know if you are doing the things that God wants you to do?  After studying chapter three and these two cities, I think the answer to both of those questions is going to be obvious and crystal clear.

Message by Chris Brown on May 4, 2024. Maybe you have heard before that the God of the Bible is a jealous God, and that struck you as rather odd. Why is He so needy and insecure, or why does He have to have His way in everything that we do? In this message we will discover that His jealousy is not about His weakness, but ours, and that our desire to fit into culture may just be the adultery that is killing our relationship with Christ.

Message by Chris Brown on April 13, 2024. For some it strikes fear, for others mystery and intrigue, and for many simply an apathy because of its confusion and uncertainty. For whichever group you find yourself in, this study of the Book of Revelation is promised to be so much more, and we hope you can hop in and buckle up for the ride of your life… and eternity.

Message by Chris Brown on April 6, 2024. If true Christianity is not just knowing the right things, but acting on them, have you ever wondered how to live out your Christian faith?  After almost a year and a half of studying the life and teachings of Jesus, we finally come to the last chapter and get great examples of how to now walk in the truth.

Message by Chris Brown on March 30, 2024. I always hated it when Christians that I knew tried to prove the Bible by using verses from the Bible. Uuugggghhh, the insanity. This message will take a few minutes looking at what the Bible claims to be truth, and then dive into the historical evidence to see if Jesus really could have raised from the dead.

Message by Larry Osborne on March 23, 2024. When it comes to prayer, there are lots of ideas out there as to what works and what doesn’t.

Message by Chris Brown on March 9, 2024. Somehow we have been lead to believe that Jesus came just to save us and give us a better life.

Message by Chris Brown on March 2, 2024. If you have ever found the Christian life far more depressing and frustrating than life-giving, then you are not alone.

Message by Larry Osborne on February 24, 2024. Have you noticed that it’s sometimes hard to tell what’s real and what’s bogus these days? In a world of knockoff products, phishing emails, A.I., and deepfake videos, a little extra caution is called for. It’s the same in the spiritual realm. Which is why in this week’s message we’ll dig into how to quickly tell the difference between a spiritual truth teller and a lying fraud. It’s a lot easier than you might think.

Message by Chris Brown on February 17, 2024. If being a Christian means that Christ is actually with us, then how can we have so many doubts, so many unanswered prayers, and still walk around with the guilt and shame from our past? John breaks all of that down for us today in a message that may just change all that we thought we knew about faith and prayer.

Message by Chris Brown on February 10, 2024. The Bible makes it clear that God is love and that we are supposed to love each other, but does that have to apply to everyone? Is there any exception for those who have really hurt us, or have hurt the people we love? This message will give us the clear answers to those questions, but even more importantly, clear steps on how to deal with those who have hurt us deeply.

Message by Larry Osborne on January 27, 2024. If you’ve ever wondered about what the Bible actually says about the last hour or the Antichrist – you’ll be surprised by this weekend’s message and passage.

It has been said that the Christian life would be easy if it wasn’t for other Christians. As much as that may be true, it is even truer that how we love Christians who drive us crazy may just be the ultimate proof of whether or not we are really followers of Christ.

Message by Chris Brown on January 13, 2024. I have good news for those of us who can use a lot of Grace and Freedom in our lives right now. Today we look at the absolutely amazing consequences that we get to walk in once we accept our sin. That’s right, the AMAZING consequences of sin so we never have to walk in a day of bondage or shame ever again.

So Jesus was real; He came to earth, died, and rose again. Now what? What are we supposed to do with that information, and how is it supposed to change us? Those are exactly the questions that 1 John will answer as it deals with a culture that has made Christianity just another religion and its followers just another group of lifeless souls in search of something more.

Message Trent Jenkins on December 30, 2023. Here we go… 2024! January 1 feels like a magical day on the calendar where all of our bad habits will suddenly be gone. But this weekend’s message isn’t a resolutions message, it’s not a goals message. Those can be great, but can still leave you feeling empty.

Message Chris Brown on December 23, 2023. As we finish our study in the book of John today, we are also celebrating Christmas.  We didn’t plan it this way, but they both begin and end with the exact same point and purpose.  Until we can apply the simple fact that God can be with us, both the book and the holiday are just two more symbols of another dead religion that leaves us disappointed and frustrated with a God who doesn’t come through for us. Video available on YouTube at https://youtu.be/QLTTUIdqgWo - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-195004.html

Have you ever wondered why many Christians aren’t experiencing an abundant life or living with true joy? Have you heard that there is freedom in Christ but all you have experienced is more guilt, shame, and the dryness that comes from religion? Today we will examine what Jesus wanted us to do after we knew His story, and the keys to having our lives truly changed once and for all.

Jesus draws straight lines with crooked sticks. And none more so than the ragtag group of Jesus followers whose first response to the resurrection was confusion and doubt. Could there be some important lessons there for us as well?

Easter was obviously an incredible day of joy – But did you know that the first response of those who came across the empty tomb was anything but joy? They were actually filled with confusion and doubt. This week we’ll see why that’s Good News for Confused Christians.

Message from Damean Easter on November 25, 2023. Jesus has been brutally beaten and has now died on the cross… there has been no resurrection yet. What happens in that middle between Jesus’ death and resurrection? As we look at the burial of Jesus we see a God who meets us in that middle.

Message from Chris Brown on November 18, 2023. Is the cross just a religious symbol or a sign for what belief system I choose to follow, or is it something far greater? And even if Jesus did die on a cross, what does that have to do with me some 2,000 years later? Today’s message will take a deep dive into this symbol that we find so prominent in architecture, art, jewelry and tattoo shops to find out if it still matters today.

Life’s hardest decisions are hard because either choice has a price to pay.

This message is going to take a deep dive into the greatest day, in all of history, and the three questions that come from Jesus being on trial.

Love, huh? That sounds great in theory. It sounds like a great idea when Jesus teaches it in the upper room where it's safe. What does love look like when it’s not in theory anymore? When the world shows up and now it’s time to practice love. Join us this weekend as we see Jesus live out love, because to Him, love was not just in theory.

Message from Larry Osborne on October 21, 2023. Jesus’ betrayal and arrest wasn’t anything close to what everyone thought at the time. And this week, as we look at the Apostle John’s account, we’ll see why that is so.  Video available on YouTube at https://youtu.be/vd_I8OHys18 - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-190740.html

We live in a day and age where it seems to be applauded to divide a church, and change churches, based on our differences with other Christians. Today’s last teaching from Jesus in the upper room should turn that applause into mourning, and turn our hearts back to our brothers and sisters.

Jesus prayed to the Father that we’d be protected and set apart from the world we live in. But as we’ll see when we dig into the second part of the “Real Lord’s Prayer,” it was for a different kind of protection and that we’d be a different kind of different.

Message from Damean Easter on September 30, 2023. "Our Father who art in heaven, hollowed be thy name…" This is the Lord's prayer, right? What if I told you that this was not the Lord’s prayer because Jesus didn’t pray it? Join us as we dive into a 3-week miniseries looking into the Lord’s “real” prayer and getting a glimpse into the deep recesses of Jesus' heart.

Message from Larry Osborne on September 23, 2023. Today we come to the final words that Jesus spoke to His inner circle before heading to the cross. Last words are usually important words. And these are incredibly important words about heartache, grief, pain and suffering that they, and every Jesus follower, need to know.

If there is one topic in the church today that seems incredibly hard for people to describe, it is the Holy Spirit. Today should simplify His role in our lives and show us clearly how truly loving everyone can be a terrible goal. Yep, you read that correctly, if we ever make it our goal to love people, then we have failed miserably.

How in the world can we be expected to love others as Christ loved us when we live in a world that seems to be fueled by hate and anger? And how are we supposed to be good Americans, and fight for our rights, when our only weapon is love? These huge questions are tackled by Jesus in today’s text. Buckle up!

Message by Larry Osborne on September 2, 2023. Today we’ll look at one of the simplest truths Jesus ever taught. But as we’ll see, simple can be rather profound. And simple, isn’t the same thing as easy.

Message by Chris Brown on August 26, 2023. There may not be another subject in the Bible that is more simple, yet more complex, than the Holy Spirit. Today we will break down the basics of who He is, what He is here for, and most importantly, how we can develop a relationship with the Holy Spirit.

We’ve all heard it. “Don’t worry, it will be OK.” But sometimes it won’t be OK. In today’s passage Jesus explains when, why, and how it will be OK for His followers– and why it’ll be OK for those who refuse to follow Him.

Message by Chris Brown on August 12, 2023. Have you ever wondered why Jesus put such a HUGE emphasis on not only who we love, but how we love them?  And haven’t you realized how hard that can be to actually live out?  Today’s passage will give us a brand new perspective on how, and why, this may be a much much bigger command than we realized.

In one of the most powerful scenes in all of history, Jesus gives His followers the greatest example to live by and hope for, when it seems like all hell is breaking loose around them. This message definitely has something for all of us, no matter where we find ourselves in life.

Message by Larry Osborne on July 29, 2023. Everyone loves the idea of loving and serving others – that is until we’re expected to love the unlovely or are actually treated like a servant. In today’s passage Jesus shows us What Love Does when it moves from an ideal to a reality. And it starts with some dirty feet.

Message by Larry Osborne on July 22, 2023. Jesus made it clear that the reason He came to earth was to pay for our sins and to provide us with the key to eternal life. But then (and now) there are many who say “No thanks,” or “Not yet.” Today’s passage explains why that happens and why saying “No” to God today can make it impossible to say “Yes” to God tomorrow.

Sometimes we just don’t get it. It seems that no matter how many times Jesus told His followers He was going to die and come back to life, they just didn’t get it.

Message from Damean Easter on July 8, 2023

Message from Larry Osborne on July 1, 2023. Have you ever thought (or heard someone say), "I'd believe and follow Jesus if He'd just give me a clear sign." Today's passage shows why that's simply not true, as we explore the two radically different responses to one of His greatest miracles; the same two response we still see today.

Message from Arnold Camacho on June 17, 2023. Father! When you hear that word, what comes up? Jesus uses it a lot in John. As believers, seeing God as Father is one of the primary relationships we are called into. But that word, for many of us can come with such mixed connotations. This weekend we will listen to a father-son relationship story that we hope and pray will inspire courage, love, truth, and maybe even forgiveness. Ultimately, leading us to walk closer to our Heavenly Father.  Video available on YouTube at https://youtu.be/v3aEofUTsoo - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-182159.html

Message from Chris Brown on June 10, 2023. So how is Jesus really different from other religions or claims about God?  How does Christianity differ from other religions, and can’t there really be many different paths to get to God? Today we take a look at Jesus’ own teachings so we can decide for ourselves what to do with this historical figure and what He has to say about Himself.

Message from Chris Brown on June 3, 2023. After five chapters of controversy and criticism, Jesus is ready to set the record straight with this famous illustration of the Good Shepherd and the Thief who comes to kill, steal, and destroy.  However, the real identity of this thief, and his defining traits, might have far more to do with us than the Devil that we imagine him to be.

"I once was blind, but now I see." Spiritual blindness can hide in plain sight.

“You will know the truth and the truth will set you _______.” Many of us may be able to finish that quote, but do we know what context it is used in? Or the bigger question may be, where can one find real truth today? This teaching will answer both of those questions, but more importantly, will show us that real freedom is still available to us today.

Message from Chris Brown on May 13, 2023. Have you ever noticed that Jesus loved teaching the crowds about Jesus? It’s as if He really thought that He was the only thing that they truly needed to hear about and understand. Today we once again hear Him teaching the crowd that He is The Light of the world, and if we listen well, we will understand why this changes everything about who we are, where we have been, and where we are going.

Message from Larry Osborne on May 6, 2023. It’s no secret that we all want understanding and forgiveness when we mess up. But for some strange reason, it’s a lot harder to give it to others who mess up. Today we’ll see why, and what it looks like to give others what we want others to give to us.

Have you ever heard someone say that the Bible has changed over time and isn’t reliable? Is there any solid proof that the Bible we have today is the same Bible that the original authors wrote?

As Christians, sometimes we can go weeks, months, or more without living in the joy and peace that God intended for us. In this passage, we'll see how God lovingly cultivates His joy in us, and what He intends for us to do with it.

Message from Chris Brown on April 15, 2023. Why do so many people have a problem with Church if it is supposed to be a place where everyone can find real love?  The answer is simple, the church has often failed its mission and done a lot of harm in the process.  Today’s passage will explain why it happened during Jesus’ ministry as well, and what we can do about that today.

Special Good Friday message by Trent Jenkins.Video available on YouTube at https://vimeo.com/814865796

Message from Larry Osborne on April 1, 2023. Can we “believe” something without really believing it? The Apostle John thought so. That's why he wrote his Jesus story.

Message from Chris Brown on March 18, 2023. Have you ever found it hard to read about a God who can apparently heal all kinds of diseases and illnesses but doesn’t? Is our lack of miracles because of our lack of faith, or does God just have a few favorites and the rest of us aren’t on that list? Or does John chapter 5 give us a completely different perspective of what Jesus’ miracles are actually about, and why all of us will get the one that we actually need?

Maybe someone once told you that you had to have faith to please God, but are there different types of faith?

Message from Chris Brown on March 4, 2023. Our churches seem to do a great job talking about forgiveness, but sometimes a lousy job of talking about freedom.  Ironically finding freedom from our past guilt and shame seems to be one of the greatest pursuits of most Christians today.  This message will walk us step by step through the process of not just forgiveness, but how to find that freedom from guilt and shame that we all desire.

Message from TJ McDaniel on February 25, 2023. Shame is a terrible thing to live with. It can cause isolation, depression, and convince us that we are wholly unloveable. In this passage, we’ll see how God, in His deep kindness, both responds to and frees us from our shame.

Message from Chris Brown on February 18, 2023. Have you ever had a desire to obtain greatness? To truly rest satisfied with the fact that you are fulfilling your purpose and significance in life? Would you love to go to bed each night and wake up every morning knowing exactly what you were made to do and how to do it?

If there is only one message that you and your loved ones could ever hear, I promise you that this one is it. I guarantee that this will be the greatest message that you have ever heard, because it’s not mine. This message is the one Jesus gives to answer all of life’s questions, and the very first message of Jesus that John writes in his book to show that He is the Son of God.

Message from Damean Easter on February 4, 2023. This week, Jesus arrives at the temple and sees that God’s house of worship has truly become a three-ring circus. People are being taken advantage of left and right, but it’s nothing that a passionate Savior and a few flipped tables can’t handle, all while redefining what it means to be in the house of God!

Have you ever thought that God seems to demand a lot from people, and that just doesn’t seem fair? Today’s message uncovers just who Jesus thinks He is, and what He is willing to exchange for all that He demands. After hearing this story, we may just change our mind about Jesus' demands being unfair.

Message from Larry Osborne on January 21, 2023. If John’s claims that Jesus is God are true, our decision to either follow him or reject him is the most important decision we will ever make – and the most important truth we will ever pass on.

So, what is the big deal about Jesus? There were tens of thousands of people who were killed on a cross 2000 years ago, why does this guy supposedly have something to do with my life today?

Message from Chris Brown on January 7, 2023. He is the most quoted, written about, sung about and talked about figure in all of history, yet surprisingly many people have only a partial description or understanding of who Jesus is.  Today we kick off our new series on Jesus and get a much much bigger picture of Him than any other book in the Bible gives us.   Video available on YouTube at https://youtu.be/JalHdbOAvlA - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-171332.html

Message from Larry Osborne on December 17, 2022. Family members have always had some special rights, privileges, and responsibilities that come with the relationship. It’s the same for those of us who are Jesus followers and have been adopted into God’s family as full-on sons and daughters. Today we’ll discover one of the most amazing rights and privileges we’ve been granted – and the responsibilities that come with it.

Once we have truly encountered the love and purpose that God has for us, we all love being called Children of God. However, the inheritance that comes with that title is not only an eternal Kingdom, but the rest of His family as well. Today we jump into the reality that it is not always easy to love others in the family, but we will find the motivation and heart that we need to do it anyway.

Message from Chris Brown on December 3, 2022. There is a phrase in the Bible that seems to be incredibly easy for us to understand, and yet at the same time incredibly difficult for us to live out. The application of this single phrase is what made all the difference in the world to me between understanding Christianity and actually experiencing it. Today we define, but more importantly, learn how to apply, the unmerited title: Child of God.

Message from TJ McDaniel on November 26, 2022. There is a great irony among Christians. The most important phrase that could ever be said, “God loves you,” can feel unremarkable and dull.

Have you ever noticed that it is easier to say what we believe and sing what we believe than to live out what we believe?

Message from Larry Osborne on November 12, 2022. Like the rolling credits at the end of a movie, today’s passage lists the names of 37 Mighty Men who helped make King David, King David.

Message from Chris Brown on October 15, 2022. Let’s be honest, there seem to be a lot of stories in the Bible where God is an angry deity that kills innocent people for some obscure reason that makes no sense to us today, and yet we are told He is a loving God. Today we will take a deeper dive into one of these stories and may just find out that this is a God worth loving and worshipping, and even better, the type of dad that we have always wanted.

Message from Larry Osborne on October 8, 2022. Most of us assume that when God shows up, miracles happen and problems disappear.

Message from Chris Brown on October 1, 2022. All of us love the forgiveness, grace and mercy that we get from God, even though we don’t deserve it, but most of us find that it is not that easy to give those to others who don’t deserve it. Today we will find the three simple steps needed for us to be able to give away what we have been given, and in doing so find the freedom that we are supposed to walk in.

We’ve all messed up personally. But how are we supposed to respond when those we love mess up? In today’s passage we’ll learn from David’s example what not to do – and learn from the rest of Scripture the right way to respond to those we love when they mess up big time. Once. Twice. Or over and over again.

Message from Chris Brown on September 17, 2022. All of us realize that we live in a broken world that is not getting any better, yet few of us are doing something ahead of time to prepare for when that brokenness hits us.

Don’t you hate the fact that life has a way of not just getting us down, but then kicking us while we are down, over and over again?  And what happens when those blows come from those closest to us or from those within our own family?  Today we peer into a life that has to be at its lowest point and yet if we are paying attention, we will walk away with a blueprint for how to survive when it’s our turn to get the boot.  Video available on YouTube at https://youtu.be/90dSi3m0eUM - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-163383.html

Message from Guest Speaker, Mark Clark, on August 13, 2022. If there is one thing we’re continually learning from this series in David, it’s that there really is no middle of the road when it comes to how we live our life. It’s a decision we all make - you live life your way, or you live it God’s way. Are you willing to get to the place where you don’t need to control the outcome?

Message from Larry Osborne on July 23, 2022. In our current season of Cancel Culture, it sometimes seems as if there’s no way for the fallen to rise again. But there is. It’s what Jesus died for. And today’s passage shows us exactly how the fallen rise again.

Message from Chris Brown on July 16, 2022. It is doubtful if any of us really love the word "brokenness," nor do we love the idea of being broken. However, if we can truly understand the theology of brokenness, we would then understand what it's like to walk in victory and freedom.

Message from Larry Osborne on July 9, 2022. Have you ever been devastated by the actions of someone you saw as a godly and righteous person, and wondered, “How could THEY do THAT?” In today’s passage, we will answer that question as we look at HOW THE MIGHTY FALL from 2 Samuel 11.

Message from Larry Osborne on June 25, 2022. Today we come to a passage where David shows uncommon (and to his culture, mind-boggling) kindness to a potential rival to the throne. It’s a powerful reminder and foreshadowing of God‘s incredible kindness to us.

Message from Larry Osborne on June 18, 2022. David wanted to do something for God. But to his surprise (and maybe ours), God said, “No, thanks.”  So, what is it that God wants from us? We’ll find out as we dig into 2 Samuel 7 this weekend.

There is a classic line from the Chronicles of Narnia where Susan asks Mr. Beaver if Aslan, the King of the Woods, is safe. “Safe?” Mr. Beaver replies, “Who said anything about being safe? Of course he isn’t safe. But he is good. He is the King, I tell you.” Today’s passage gives us a clear look at how we can have both a loving God who wants to bless us and yet who isn’t safe and needs to be feared.

Message from Larry Osborne on June 4, 2022. After 25 years, David has finally become the king that God promised him he would become.

God’s promise that David would be king of all Israel is finally fulfilled in this week’s passage. But once again, there’s a part of the story we seldom include in the children’s curriculum.

Hold on tight, folks. This is one of those passages very few people have ever heard taught because, at first glance, there just isn’t a whole lot to teach here. However, in continuing our commitment to teach verse by verse, we may just pause long enough here to not see what is written but to see the God who is above the text.

Message from Chris Brown on May 14, 2022. We are a culture that loves the thought of second chances because it means we can wipe the slate clean and start all over again. Today we learn what it really looks like to get a second chance spiritually and what we have to do to walk through that process.

Message from Chris Brown on May 7, 2022. By now, we have gotten used to some David stories with twists and turns in them that we didn’t see coming, but this one really throws us for a loop. However, this may just be the jolt we need to break from our own bondage of anger and bitterness and start out on a new road of freedom and grace.

Message from Larry Osborne on April 30, 2022. Few things illustrate the truth behind the old adage, “Be careful what you wish for,” as clearly as the story of King Saul’s reign over Israel. When the Israelites demanded a king, they imagined he would lead them to great victories over their enemies. But as we’ll see today, that’s not exactly how it played out.

"Help, I’ve fallen and I can’t get up" became a famous catchphrase that found its way into our American culture and entertainment for decades. But what happens when it becomes a slogan for where we are spiritually, and what are the actual answers for how to get back up again?  Video available on YouTube at https://youtu.be/uEczCw0ofRE - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-155941.html

Message from Chris Brown on April 16, 2022 We come today to one of the greatest religious holidays on our calendar, and maybe that is where the problem begins for many of us.  We tend to see our path to God as a religion, and today's message will show us why we should never walk away from religion, but run from it.

Message from Larry Osborne on April 9, 2022 Pastor Larry often refers to the “Dimmer Switch” principle. Today, in our study of 1 Samuel 28, we’ll see exactly how “The Light” grows dim as we follow the story of King Saul’s final cry out to God and God’s surprising answer.

Message from Chris Brown on April 2, 2022 OK Family, this is another chapter in the Bible that will leave us scratching our heads wondering why good people are allowed to do terrible things that cast a lot of doubt and questions about what type of God allows this sort of thing. We can turn from God after reading this one, throw in the towel and just admit that this is all worthless, or lean into the text and watch one of the most beautiful stories unfold from the darkest of humanity. Your choice… Video available on YouTube at https://youtu.be/aqU-ddoIXfQ - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-154666.html

Believe it or not, one of the greatest tests of our faith (our willingness to trust God enough to do whatever He says) can come in the form of a seemingly great opportunity. This week we’ll see how we can distinguish the difference between a God-given opportunity and a temptation disguised as opportunity.

Message from Chris Brown on March 20, 2022 One of the most amazing stories in the Old Testament is about to show us how to deal with the fools and foolishness of life and will remind us that God uses minor characters to accomplish major things for His Kingdom.

Message from Chris Brown on March 12, 2022. When it comes down to getting our hearts and heads right, we have to realize that there are two truths about us, and we get to live out one of them.  Today’s passage will give us all a great example of how God wants to change not just our hearts, but our entire reality as well.

Message from Larry Osborne on March 5, 2022. Theologians have argued forever how God’s knowledge of the future, His will and our freedom fit together. Today we’ll take a look at a time in David’s life where all three collide together, and then step back and see what it means for our choices today.

Message from Chris Brown on February 26, 2022. Have you ever noticed that it is sometimes easy to be a citizen of Heaven until all Hell breaks loose in life? That obedience and faithfulness don’t seem to be too big of a challenge, until the rug gets pulled out from under us? David’s character and faithfulness seem to take a dramatic turn in these stories of loneliness and desperation, and it may just be a perfect warning for what not to do the next time that we fall into desperate times.

Message from Chris Brown on February 12, 2022. Have you ever found it odd that there are Christians who tend to see the Spirit moving everywhere and in everything, and still other Christians who seem to have never seen the Spirit of God at all? Have you ever wanted to see the hand of God at work in your life? Well, maybe this chapter can answer these questions for us once and for all, and let us clearly see how God has been either providing or provoking us all along.

Message from Chris Brown on February 5, 2022. If you thought you knew the story of King David, my hunch is that you never heard this part of it.

Message from Larry Osborne on January 29, 2022. It’s been said that our decisions and responses determine our destiny. As we explore the rise of David and the sad demise of King Saul, we’ll see why one of the most important decisions we’ll ever make is simply, “Who are we gonna listen to?” Video available on YouTube at https://youtu.be/tsx4f1noWYI- Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-150778.html

Message from Larry Osborne on January 22, 2022. As we saw last weekend, the hero of the David and Goliath story is not David. But there is something that David did brilliantly; he refused to go to battle in Saul’s armor. This week we'll discover The Problem with Saul’s Armor and why it’s such an important principle for each of us to understand and apply to our own battles and calling.

Message from Chris Brown on January 15, 2022. How well do you really know the story of David and Goliath? This may be the most popular story in the Bible, but it also may be the most misunderstood. Today let’s look at what the Bible actually says, not what our memories tell us, and we may just walk out of this with a brand-new understanding on an old story.

Message from Chris Brown on January 8, 2022. Welcome to this first message on the life of David, but we have to warn you that if you grew up just hearing about his stories in Sunday School, then this adult version may be a whole lot different than what you expect. David will not turn out to be the hero in this story, but rather a living example of how our pride, passions, and priorities can lead us far from the life that we desire the most.

Message from Chris Brown on January 1, 2022. Whether you make them or not, this tends to be the time for resolutions. But, are your goals only temporary? Let's think big picture and look at the real training we need. What does it look like to train ourselves to be godly? To do that, it might actually start with getting rid of some myths, and finding the real truth of what spiritual growth looks like.

Message from Chris Brown on December 18-19, 2021. If you thought the Christmas story started at a manger scene in Bethlehem with Mary and Joseph, you are definitely not alone, but you are missing a much, much bigger story of Christmas.

Message from Chris Brown on December 4-5, 2021. Two weeks ago we started a message on the difference between a religion and a relationship, and it all came down to our walk with a living God. We ran out of time trying to define and apply how we can actually hear from God, so welcome to the final part of that discussion.

Message from TJ McDaniel on November 27-28, 2021. The corruptibility of the human heart is both fascinating and terrifying; even when we have the best of intentions, our sin nature consistently taints our efforts, relationships and integrity. King Saul is a tragic example of the danger we present to ourselves when we step out from under God’s leadership, and why humble dependence on God is so vital to our well-being.

Message from Chris Brown on November 20-21, 2021. You may have heard it said that Christianity is a relationship, not a religion, but exactly how would you separate the two? Since a relationship is simply defined as the way two or more people are connected, is there a way we can connect with God other than through religion? Today’s teaching will answer those questions for us, and we may just find that truly connecting with God is as simple as connecting with a friend.

Message from Chris Brown on November 13-14, 2021. You and I will encounter many times in our lives where our faith and our feelings collide in contradictions.

Message from Larry Osborne on November 6-7, 2021. There’s nothing sadder than gaining everything we ever wanted, only to discover it’s nothing we ever wanted.

Message from Chris Brown on October 30-31, 2021. Have you ever been frustrated by the fact our obedience and prayers don’t seem to be doing us any good today? Or have you ever been frustrated by the fact God doesn’t show up and work today like He did back in the Old Testament?

Message from special guest speaker, Mark Clark, on October 23-24, 2021. God called and used Jonah even though he wasn’t “good enough,” and He can use any one of us in the same way, so we should never throw in the towel. God can use us because of what Jesus has done, not because of what we have done. This reality not only changes our lives, but it is the hope of the world around us.

Message from Chris Brown on October 16-17, 2021. This new series will take a look at some of the characters in the Old Testament who either put God ahead or who got ahead of God in their lives. We will also look at the lessons we can learn from their successes or failures. Today we take an incredibly wild, topsy-turvy ride with Deborah and Barak so we can all know for sure God is out in front of all we do.

Message from Larry Osborne on October 9-10, 2021. The Book of Revelation has a two-fold purpose. But contrary to what many Christians assume, it’s not a book of riddles and cryptic clues to see who’s smart enough to figure them out. This week we will discover what those two purposes are.

Message from Chris Brown on October 2-3, 2021. So, how should Christians live in a culture defined by so much division, animosity and differing truths? That’s right, we fight! But how and why we fight is what Jude wants to teach us today. Although this is one of the smallest books of the Bible, it packs quite a punch.

Message from Larry Osborne on September 25-26, 2021. Can a leader lead too much? Absolutely, according to the Apostle John’s little letter called 3 John.

Message from Larry Osborne on September 18-19, 2021. It seems the concept of spiritual truth hardly matters anymore. Many consider it the height of arrogance and intolerance to question someone’s sincerely held beliefs. But the Apostle John’s little letter called 2 John makes it clear that truth matters and we don’t get to pick and choose what’s true.

Message from Chris Brown on September 11-12, 2021. Can I confidently know I’m going to Heaven? Is there a difference between trying to be a good person and the work of the Spirit? Should loving people be this hard? Why is the Christian life so frustrating? We have all heard Christianity is a relationship, not a religion, but John will break it down for us in a way we may have never heard before and answer all of these questions we have.

Message from Chris Brown on September 4-5, 2021. When it comes to figuring out how to walk with God, many of us will say things like, “I just don’t know enough about God or the Bible,” or “If only I knew more about God and the Bible...” However, today’s study will show us clearly why more knowledge can be dangerous and why our walk with God doesn’t equate to how much we know about Him.

Message from Larry Osborne on August 28-29, 2021. It’s no news flash we are living in a spiritually hostile world.

Message from Chris Brown on August 21-22, 2021. If someone just claims to be a Christian, does that make them a Christian? Or can someone believe wholeheartedly they are a Christian only to find out they aren’t? What truly makes someone a Christian, and who gets to define that? All of these questions and more are about to be answered by James, the half-brother of Jesus Himself.

Message from Chris Brown on August 14-15, 2021. Sometimes the Book of Hebrews is easy for us to overlook because it deals with so much Old Testament language and religion.

Message from Trent Jenkins on July 10-11, 2021. Have you ever doubted yourself, felt insecure, or wanted to make something more out of your life but didn’t know how to get there? The difficulties Timothy faced while leading in Ephesus are areas we can all relate to while leading in our own lives.

Message from Larry Osborne on July 3-4, 2021. When is Jesus coming back? This is a question that has led to endless speculation for 2,000 years.

Message from Chris Brown on June 26-27, 2021. If we have such a great God who loves us, then why is life so unfair? Does God not care about what is happening to us, or are we just missing a giant piece to this puzzle? Paul tries to answer these questions to a group of Christians who faced far more persecution than you and I will probably ever face in our lives.

Message from Chris Brown on June 19-20, 2021. Have you ever wanted someone to just simplify Christianity for you? To summarize the entire Bible in just a few pages? To make clear all of what is complex in Scripture? Simply put, can someone just tell me what Christianity is all about in a way I can understand? Well, here it is... Colossians.

Message from Chris Brown on June 12-13, 2021. Have you ever thought to yourself, "If I am a Christian, why don’t I experience all the Bible says I am supposed to experience? I can’t find peace, joy and contentment in this life because I am surrounded by so much doom and gloom." Philippians gives us a step-by-step guide for how to get rid of our stinkin’ thinkin’ and walk in real joy Video available on YouTube at https://youtu.be/YbCsP5MmXB0 - Live Notes available at https://churchlinkfeeds.blob.core.windows.net/notes/38370/note-138128.html

Message from Larry Osborne on June 5-6, 2021. Sadly, some self-proclaimed Jesus followers come off as harsh and arrogant. When that happens, it’s certain that they’ve forgotten the key truths found in Paul’s letter to the Ephesians: (1) who they were, (2) where they came from, and (3) how that changes everything about how we live and relate to others.

Message from Chris Brown on May 29-30, 2021. What type of freedom do we truly have as Christians, and what really makes a person a Christian in the first place? Not only does Paul answer these questions in the book of Galatians, but he uses some of the harshest language in the Bible to speak against anyone who would argue differently.

Message from Larry Osborne on May 22-23, 2021. If you’ve ever felt like everything is falling apart, you’re not alone. When it comes to hardship and trials, we all find ourselves in one of three possible situations: 1) We just got out of it, 2) We’re in the middle of it, 3) We’re about to enter it. 2 Corinthians gives us a powerful glimpse into how the Apostle Paul handled all three.

Message from Christopher Hilken on May 15-16, 2021. Jesus ruins everything. Then He rebuilds something better. 1st Corinthians invites us to look at the transformation that comes when we receive Jesus and the new life He offers that absolutely changes the way we see everything.

Message from Chris Brown on May 8-9, 2021. Around church many people talk about a personal relationship with Christ, but the reality is there is no personal relationship with Jesus that is just personal. We are adopted into one big family, and that can create a lot of conflict and division which can kill the church. We have recently seen this played out in our cultural battlegrounds, and today we find out how the church can survive as a dysfunctional family.

Message from Chris Brown on May 1-2, 2021. If you asked the Apostle Paul to boil down everything he knows about Christ and Christianity into just one book, my bet is he would respond with ‘I already did.' Even though he wrote 12 letters that are found in our New Testament, he only wrote one book entitled Romans. Today we start a two-part overview of that book to see exactly what was most important to Paul, and what should be most important to us as well.

Message from Larry Osborne on April 24-25, 2021. Love is one of those words used so frequently and loosely that it’s almost lost all meaning. Yet Jesus says that the reality of relationship with Him is defined by our love for Him, one another, strangers, and even our enemies. So, let’s step back and take a look at what Jesus actually meant when He said we should be known by our love for others.

Message from Larry Osborne on April 17-18, 2021. If you thought Serve Your City and our Weekend of Service were North Coast innovations, you’ll be surprised to discover that Jesus started it all 2,000 years ago when He sent out seventy-two of His followers to pave the way for His ministry. So, what did they do, why did they do it, and what can we learn about representing Jesus well?

Message from Chris Brown on April 10-11, 2021. Have you ever wondered if there was more to Christianity than what you have been told… if at some level there were deeper secrets, higher knowledge, or greater gifts? Today we get behind the locked doors of the original apostles and hear first-hand what this life is all about, and the role we are supposed to play in it.

Message from Chris Brown on April 3-4, 2021. This may surprise you, but when we look at the Last Supper Jesus had with His disciples, and that extended time of teaching, He taught far more about the empty tomb than the cross. Far more about His resurrected life than His death. And far more about the Holy Spirit than forgiveness. Maybe this Easter message will get us back to our need for an empty tomb, and why it is a much bigger deal than some of us may think.

Message from Chris Brown on March 27-28, 2021. As the curtains begin to close, we are about to witness the final scene in the book of Acts. Chained to a Roman guard, and under house arrest, Paul writes one of his final letters and clearly spells out the reasons and motives for all he has done and been through. If we lean in and listen closely, we may just find in those final words our own motivation to continue our journey as well.

Message from Christopher Hilken on March 20-21, 2021. God is telling a story through you! It’s a big one! The most important one ever! The greatest news in history!

Message from Chris Brown on March 13-14, 2021. In this bizarre ending to a shipwreck, karma and justice seem to be at odds with each other, or maybe once and for all redefined for a group of islanders. In a tale that seems more fitting for Robinson Crusoe, this passage from the Bible clearly defines two truths and a lie about us that we all need to come to our own reckoning with.

Message from Chris Brown on March 6-7, 2021. There are times in life where we may find ourselves spiritually and emotionally adrift, or even worse, caught up in a storm and heading for certain shipwreck. This message will tell us how to avoid these storms, warn us of the toll they take on us, and more importantly will step by step paint a picture of how to save our ship in the midst of them.

Message from Larry Osborne on February 27-28, 2021. Waiting is never fun. But it’s an incredibly important part of the process that can’t be rushed.

Message from Chris Brown on February 20-21, 2021. Have you ever wondered what it really means to have a personal relationship with God, versus just believing there is a God? Today we will look at the two years Paul was in prison and unlock the difference between having a personal relationship with Jesus, or just believing in a God and hoping He blesses us.

Message from Chris Brown on February 13-14, 2021. Ever wonder why we all go through the same type of life situations, yet some people seem to handle the situations much better than others? Today we will go back and investigate the very start of Paul’s journey and see how it impacted every chapter of his life. Maybe once we remember the beginning of our own spiritual journey, we can truly turn every obstacle in our life into an opportunity.

Message from Christopher Hilken on February 6-7, 2021. It’s fairly obvious when we do something we know is wrong, or even sometimes when we don’t do something we know is right. The Bible takes it one step further. Christ calls us not just to do the right thing, but also to do it in the right way. This sermon takes a look at that idea in Scripture.
