What Does The Bible Say About Forgiveness?

February 25, 2024 - 06:33 PM Sermon SeriesStand Alone Sermons


How do we handle the wounds of life? The world tells us to get even. Recently, a man in Colorado shot a dog to death because days earlier, it was in a fight with his dog, so he plotted revenge. War in the Middle East never ends because of a commitment to revenge instead of extending forgiveness. In this study, we look at what the Bible says about the aroma of forgiveness from the life of a Christian introduces people to Jesus.

November 19, 2023 - 09:19 PM Sermon Series2 Samuel

1 Samuel 24 - Love Your Enemies

October 16, 2022 - 08:10 PM Sermon Series1 Samuel


In the movie The Straight Story, 73-year-old Alvin Straight from Laurens, Iowa, travels to Mt. Zion, Iowa, to mend a broken relationship with his 75-year-old brother Lyle from whom he was bitterly estranged. Alvin’s legs and eyes are too compromised for him to obtain a driver’s license, so he hitches a trailer to his used John Deere 110 tractor and sets off on the 240-mile six-week journey to restore the broken relationship with his brother while they are still alive. It is an amazing story of forgiveness and loving an enemy. 1 Samuel 24 is another story of the power of forgiveness as David finally has the chance to kill Saul. Instead of killing Saul, he chooses to love and forgive him. Join me as we learn the power of forgiving our enemies.

1 Samuel 12 - Samuel's Farewell Address

April 25, 2022 - 07:31 PM Sermon Series1 Samuel


How do you finish a career? Steven Slater, a former JetBlue flight attendant, made a dramatic exit. A passenger refused to stay seated while the plane was taxing to the gate. The passenger removed her luggage from an overhead bin striking Slater in the head. She then cursed Slater out for getting in her way. Fed up with his job, Slater grabbed a beer from the beverage cart, called out, “It has been great!” then activated the emergency evacuation shoot sliding his way to freedom. This weekend, in 1 Samuel 12, we find an even more dramatic career exit by the prophet Samuel as we learn how God uses repentance and obedience to take our worst sins and use them in ways we don't expect for good.

Jude 24-25 - The Greatness Of God Demands The Worship Of God

October 17, 2021 - 08:26 PM Sermon SeriesJude


If you need a box of diapers, you will have a hard time finding them. Due to inflation and supply chain issues at least 1 in 3 Americans are facing a diaper shortage. Diapers are not the only item that is hard to find. Just about everything is scarce and pricey. As a result, people grumble against those in power. In the final message of Jude, we find there is no reason to grumble about what our God has done for us. Instead, there is every reason to sing his praises now and forever. Join us in the final message of Jude as we discover why the greatness of our God demands the worship of his people.

Jude 7 - Homosexuality And Hell

September 12, 2021 - 03:56 PM Sermon SeriesJude


Franklin Graham had a full house at the Hertz arena where he made a stop on his Decision America tour. Surprisingly thousands have signed petitions to stop Franklin Graham from speaking in arenas around the country. The Reverend Nathan Empsall explains why, “Graham engages in repeated hatred against the LGBTQ community despite the fact that each and every person is made in God’s image.” What has Franklin Graham said that the LGBTQ community finds so hateful and offensive? Graham claims the Bible calls homosexuality a sin of which people need to repent, not an alternative lifestyle God wants us to enjoy. With so many churches and denominations endorsing homosexuality and celebrating the LGBTQ lifestyle, is Franklin Graham wrong? Join us this weekend as we find out what the Bible says about homosexuality and hell.

The "Great American Eclipse" of August 21, 2017 is now history. April 8, 2024 is the next total solar eclipse. It will darken a 115 mile wide section of America from Texas to Maine.

Philippians 4:1-9 - Christian Endurance

August 02, 2020 - 10:29 AM Sermon SeriesPhilippians



The Indy 500 is the largest sporting venue in the world. It has a seating capacity over 235,000. Add infield seating capacity, and they can handle over 400,000 people. While everyone loves a good race, the only way you can place in a race is you need to finish the race. Blowing an engine or crashing into a wall leaves you with nothing. The Christian life is like the Indy 500. What matters more than starting the Christian life is enduring to the end and finishing the Christian life. As Paul begins to wind up his letter to the Philippians, he gives them five hurdles they need to conquer if they are going to stand firm in Christ for the long haul. They are the same challenges we face if we want to be faithful to Jesus until the end of our days. Join us as we learn how to stand strong for Christ until we finish the race of life.

Mark 10:1-12 - Jesus On Divorce

October 27, 2019 - 08:45 PM Sermon SeriesGospel of Mark



Between 42 to 45 percent of marriages will end in divorce. Divorce touches everyone either in their immediate family or in their extended family. Divorce is so common that it has become something people celebrate instead of hide. Today it is popular to host a divorce party when your marriage is ending. Just as people celebrate the beginning of their marriage with a party, a divorce party is celebrating the end of a marriage with a party. Is the end of a marriage something to celebrate? What does Jesus think about divorce? Join us as we continue our study in the Gospel of Mark and see what Jesus has to say about this painful topic.

Mark 2:13-17 - Jesus Loves Sinners

When was the last time you shook your head in disgust as the newscaster read the profile of a criminal on the evening news? When we hear those stories, we look forward to people getting what they deserve. What we forget is that Jesus loves sinners, even the most heinous ones. As we continue our way through the Gospel of Mark, we find Jesus choosing a heinous tax collector that repented of his sins to be part of his inner circle.

Mark 2:1-12 - Jesus Forgives Sin

November 11, 2018 - 07:44 AM Sermon SeriesGospel of Mark




What is the most important thing the Christian faith offers the world? Some think it is morality because Christians desire to live ethical lives. Some think the most important thing Christianity brought to the world is love because Christians love one another and even love their enemies. Some think the most important thing Christians offer the world is social care. It is true that Christians are behind the formation of hospital, orphanages, and care for the poor. One thing Christianity offers that is more important than any of these is forgiveness for our sin against God. Jesus offers it completely, fully and freely by the authority of his word. Join us as we learn how Jesus offers forgiveness to you.

January 14, 2018 - 02:52 PM Sermon SeriesPhilemon



We live in a revenge culture. Movies like Rambo and Braveheart glorify getting even after we are hurt. Forgiveness is considered weakness, yet he Bible tells us forgiveness is the only way forward. As Christians, we alone have the power to forgive like Jesus because we know what it means to be completely forgiven by Jesus.

Colossians 2:6-15 - Why Is Jesus All I Need?

November 05, 2017 - 10:33 AM Sermon SeriesColossians



Where do you find your sense of self-worth? For most of us, it is in our work. For stay-at-home mom's, their identity is usually found in being a mother. If you are in high school, your identity is often found in your sport or the instrument you plan in the band. The problem is, when what we do is taken away from us, it crushes our understanding of who we are. In Colossians, Paul shows us how our identity doesn't come from what we do but what God has done for us through Jesus. This is the key to overcoming our depression and sagging self-worth.

Genesis 38 - Judah - How Far Can You Run From God?

September 18, 2016 - 03:44 PM Sermon SeriesGenesis



Sometimes we fail God miserably. It isn't long until we are caught in a web of our own sin where it feels impossible to break free. Sometimes we are far from God for years. Will God ever take us back after our miserable failings? As we study the life of Judah—the brother of Joseph, we see how far away from God a person can walk and still be restored by God's grace.

Genesis 20 - Relapse

February 28, 2016 - 09:05 AM Sermon SeriesGenesis

After seven months of sobriety, while dealing with a stressful time in the office, she rinsed her mouth with Scope after brushing her teeth. Instead of spitting it out, the sudden rush of alcohol was so exhilarating that she swallowed it. That began Vicki's relapse into alcoholism that continued for months, not with traditional booze but by swallowing her mouthwash after brushing her teeth. The triggers that can relapse us into our old sinful habits come from the most unexpected places and are hard to avoid. As we follow the story of Abraham, we find he struggled with relapsing into persistent sin when he ran across his sin trigger. In this message we learn where to find hope when we struggle with relapsing into persistent sin.

Leviticus 5:14-6:7 - Guilt Offering

December 20, 2015 - 09:44 AM Sermon SeriesChristmas from Leviticus
Are you in debt? Americans carry more debt for daily living today than 12 years ago. The average American household in 2015 has $129,579 in total debt with $15,355 of that debt on credit cards. This debt doesn't just come from uncontrolled spending. The cost of daily life is rising faster than salaries. In the last 12 years the average income rose 21 percent while medical costs increased 51 percent and the cost of food 37 percent. it is hard to stay out of debt! While the Bible doesn't teach us how to eliminate debt on our credit card, it tell us how to face a much more important debt. The debt of our sin to God. In our study of the Guilt Offering we learn how to find freedom from the debt of our sin.
