Proverbs - Wisdom For Working With People

August 25, 2024 - 05:27 PM Sermon SeriesProverbs


We live in a conflict-saturated world. Nations are at war. Crime decimates our cities. The evening news features the ugly battle for the next election. While many lean into conflict, others seem to avoid most of it. How do they do that? When ancient Hebrews prepared their sons for leadership positions, they had them study the book of Proverbs to teach them how to work with people skillfully. In this study, we will learn what Proverbs teaches us about how to avoid conflict and successfully work with those different from us.

In our world, parents have an urgent job to prepare their children for life. After sharing the gospel, what should parents teach their children?

WISDOM - Do I Make Wise Choices?

February 19, 2023 - 06:44 PM Sermon SeriesSpiritual Health


Adriana Kuch was a 14-year-old freshman viciously beaten by girls in the hall of her New Jersey high school. It was a planned beating, with other students recording the incident on their cell phones. The purpose was to upload the video to TikTok and become famous. Two days after the beating, after hundreds of hateful comments on the video from people she didn’t know, Adriana committed suicide. So far, there are three students charged as an accessory to her death. Many of the students involved in the beating video now wish they had made a wiser choice of friends. As we continue our series on Spiritual Health, we learn how healthy Christians pursue wise choices, not just avoid openly sinful ones.

1 Samuel 26 - The Spear Makes The Point

October 30, 2022 - 10:34 PM Sermon Series1 Samuel


In 1914, Wrigley introduced Doublemint gum. The name came from chemists who realized a double distillation process improved the flavor. Just as doubling the flavoring process made gum better, in the Bible sometimes repeats similar stories to drive its point home. In 1 Samuel 26, David has another opportunity to take Saul’s life, but he again chooses to respect Saul instead of killing him. Join us as we find out why choosing not to take revenge a second time made things better.

1 Samuel 25 - Vengeance Is Mine

October 23, 2022 - 09:35 PM Sermon Series1 Samuel


The people we choose to surround ourselves with are some of the most significant decisions we make. “Show me your friends, and I’ll show you your future,” says motivational speaker Jim Rohn. A good Christian friend is better than a thousand followers on social media. As we continue our study in 1 Samuel, we find how God uses Christian friends that can speak candidly and lovingly to us when they see us making sinful or unwise choices.

1 Samuel 23 - Hide And Seek

October 09, 2022 - 08:26 PM Sermon Series1 Samuel


Have you played Nascondino? That is the Italian name for the game hide-and-seek. Italy hosts the hide-and-seek world championship on a large playground each summer in the city of Bergamo with 70 teams from 11 different countries. In the Bible, hide-and-seek is more than a game. For David, hide-and-seek was a life-and-death struggle as he ran from King Saul. Join us as we learn the good God intends in our life when we endure difficulty.

1 Samuel 18 - David, Love Him Or Hate Him

September 04, 2022 - 07:08 PM Sermon Series1 Samuel


The news is hard to watch. Politics and manipulation are everywhere we look. The Internet filters the news. The media spins the news. Underhanded schemes to smear political opponents surface all the time. This is nothing new. In 1 Samuel 18, we look at God’s involvement in politics and how God has a good plan that will succeed, no matter how hard people fight against it.

John 1:35-51 - Compelled to Recommend

March 29, 2015 - 03:44 PM Sermon SeriesCompelled By Grace



The love of Jesus compels us to do some crazy things. It compels us to speak about Jesus to our acquaintances, family, friends, coworkers and neighbors. When we speak of Jesus, thankfully we do not need to prove him. We just need to recommend him and let Jesus prove himself.

At Faith Church, what can you expect? In this series, we cover seven core values that drive the Faith Church experience. We want them felt across all campuses.
