2 Thessalonians 1:11-12 - How Should We Pray For Those We Love?

September 29, 2024 - 05:58 PM Sermon Series2 Thessalonians


During World War II, the United States used remote islands in the South Pacific as part of their supply routes. The natives on the islands, who had never experienced modern civilization, were fascinated with the lighters that could instantly make fire, jeeps that could drive, and heavy equipment that could push down trees. When World War II ended, the Americans and their stuff disappeared as fast as it came. Since the Americans and their stuff came from the sky, many natives assumed they were gods and began worshipping them when they left. They prayed that the gods would return from the sky and bring them more stuff. While we find this amusing, that is the way many of us pray. We ask God to bring us more stuff. In 2 Thessalonians, we see how Paul prayed for the Thessalonians and what are the right things to ask God for.

1 Peter 2:12 - Good Works, Good Will, And Good News

November 07, 2021 - 05:43 PM Sermon SeriesVision


On December 17, 1941, North Platte residents gathered at the Union Pacific Depot because they heard that a troop train carrying the Nebraska National Guard would be coming through town. When the train stopped, it was actually the Kansas National Guard. After a few moments of awkward silence, the people of the town surged forward and shared their Christmas gifts with the young men on board. After all, they were someone’s children and it was Christmas time. That night, young Rae Wilson penned a letter to the editor asking North Platte to open a Canteen at the depot that would feed other troops passing through town. Little did she know that she was starting an endeavor that would last 54 months, involving 12,000 volunteers and feeding more than 6 million servicemen and women. The North Platte Canteen remains the largest volunteer movement in United States history. This extraordinary act of kindness made North Platte one of the most loved towns for troops returning from the war. Just as the good works of a small town transformed lives, as Christians, God calls us to be about good works which God will use to help transform lives with the gospel. Join us to see how good works lead to good will which opens the door to the good news.

President Trumps Presidential campaign and the Russians. They issued 2,800 subpoenas, 500 search warrants, and interview over 500 witnesses while having an unlimited budget and resources. Putting aside your personal conclusions on the outcome of the investigation, imagine what it would be like if you were a subject in the investigation and had everything in your life exposed? While we may not be the focus of Robert Mueller's investigation, one day people will be investigated and exposed to a much great degree by Christ. Join us as we learn about Christ's final judgment and how to prepare for that great day.

January 20, 2019 - 10:35 AM Sermon SeriesGospel of Mark




We live in a world that is lonely. Family is not as close as they once were. Many people are looking for friendship and someone who cares. As we continue in Mark, Jesus introduces those who love and follow him to a new family, the family of God.

Genesis 28 - Stairway To Heaven

May 08, 2016 - 04:35 PM Sermon SeriesGenesis

In 1971 Led Zeppelin released the song Stairway to Heaven. It rocked to success and is still ranked as one of the 500 greatest songs of all-time. VH1 considers it the third greatest song of all-time. Stairway to Heaven is a song about a constant search for meaning in a world of ambiguity. It is a message of no universal truth. Ironically, the Bible tells us there is a real stairway to heaven. God revealed it to Jacob in Genesis 28. It is not a man-made path up where we climb to God. It is a God-made path where God he reaches down to us. As Jesus says in John 1:51, I am the stairway to heaven.

James 2:14-19 - Fake Faith

July 10, 2011 - 02:48 PM Sermon SeriesJames



Did you make a commitment to Christ as a child in summer camp? Millions are led to believe their eternity in heaven is secure if they can point to a day when they believed. Is it true that those who are not saved are simply those who haven't believed in Jesus? James disagrees. While we are saved by faith alone, James reminds us, saving faith is never alone. It will always be accompanied by works. There are millions who think their eternity is secure and they are good with God because at one time they placed their faith in Jesus. Unfortunately, they will spend an eternity apart from him because their faith turned out to be fake. What does fake faith look like? What is the crucial difference between faith that saves and faith that doesn't? Join us as we learn the important difference.
