What Is Prayer? How to Pour Out Your Heart to God When Life Gets Loud - Psalm 62:1-8 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What is prayer? Psalm 62:8 says it's pouring out your heart to God. If life has been shaking you and you're holding it all in, this sermon shows you where the pressure should go.In this message from Psalm 62:8, we walk through what it means to trust God at all times, how to pour out your heart to Him in prayer, and why God is a refuge strong enough to hold everything you're carrying. You'll also see how Jesus poured out His own heart in Gethsemane and poured out His life on the cross, so you can
Borrowed strength for a real battle - Ephesians 6:10-20 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Every soldier who's worn body armor has one thing in common. He didn't make it. Somebody handed it to him and sent him out, and on the worst day of his life the thing that kept him breathing was something his own hands never touched.Most of us live the other way around. We build a career and call it security, a reputation and call it worth, and then a day comes that we didn't schedule. In Ephesians 6, Paul tells us there's a real war going on and tells us where our armor comes from. It was issue
Never Alone: The Promise of the Spirit - John 14:15-17 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Jesus promised His disciples they'd never be left alone, and He meant it literally.

Read excerpt
Most of us go through life waiting to see if we measure up, wondering whether we're the one who gets picked or the one left over. Peter's letter meets that fear head on.In this sermon on 1 Peter 2:9-12 you'll see what it means to be called a chosen race, a royal priesthood, and a holy nation, why "chosen race" has nothing to do with ethnicity, and how the New City Catechism sharpens Peter's point that obedience is the evidence of grace, not a way to earn it.
Right Standing, Not Right Performance - Galatians 2:15-16 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
You can't earn right standing with God by trying harder. Galatians 2:16 shows the only way anyone is justified: faith in Christ, not performance.Most of us run an internal ledger with God, weighing our good days against our bad ones and hoping we come out ahead. That's not how it works, and Paul makes that painfully clear in Galatians 2:16.In this message we walk through Galatians 2:15-16 and answer three questions: - Why the law can expose your guilt but never clear it- What it means to be just
