1 John 4:7-12 unpacks God’s agape love—its call, its nature, and its ultimate proof through the sacrificial work of Jesus. It shows that true Christian love isn’t manufactured by us but produced by the Holy Spirit and grounded in God’s own character. And it challenges believers to complete the “circuit” of God’s love by letting it flow through us so others can encounter Him.
In a world where truth and lies often look the same, John calls us to spiritual discernment. From 1 John 4:1–6, we learn how to test the spirits, trust the Holy Spirit, and stand firm in God’s truth. When we build our beliefs on God’s Word and rely on His Spirit, we can confidently stand firm in truth — no matter how convincing the lies may seem.
In 1 John 3:11-24, the Apostle John challenges believers to move from words to action in our love for others. Real love meets needs, sacrifices comfort, and reflects Christ’s example on the cross. When our love is active, it strengthens our assurance and displays the presence of the Holy Spirit within us.
In 1 John 3:1-10, the Apostle John unpacks what it truly means to belong to God as His children. When we understand our identity in Christ, we stop chasing sin and start reflecting the purity, holiness and love of Jesus in our daily lives. This sermon challenges believers to live out their new nature, showing by their actions who they truly belong to.
In 1 John 2:18-24, John tells us that we’re living in the “last hour,” and deception is real and enticing — it’s dressed up as truth within it. He warns believers to stay alert, grounded in God’s Word, and filled with His Spirit so we can spot lies that sound spiritual. In a world chasing new revelations, the call is clear: hold fast to the truth we’ve already received in Jesus Christ.
In 1 John 2:15–17, the Apostle John warns believers not to fall in love with a world that’s passing away. The enemy uses the same old traps—the desires of the flesh, the desires of the eyes, and the pride of life—to pull our hearts away from God. But Jesus shows us how to see through the lies, reject temporary pleasures, and live for what truly lasts.
In 1 John 2:12-14, the apostle John pauses to assure believers of the blessings they already possess in Christ. Whether young in faith or spiritually mature, every Christian can stand confident in God’s grace and grow from milk to solid food.
1 John 2:7-11 dives into how holding onto offense can block us from living in the light and loving others like Jesus. It shows how unity in the Church isn’t just nice—it’s powerful and deeply reflects the heart of God. We’re challenged to let go of bitterness, forgive freely, and live in a way that points others to Jesus.
In 1 John 1:8–10, the apostle John reminds us that denying our sin only leads to deception, but confessing our sin leads to forgiveness and freedom. Confession is not a sign of weakness but of humility and faith, opening the door for God’s cleansing power and victory through Christ. As believers, we are not called to perfection but to continual growth, trusting that God will finish the good work He has begun in us.
1 John 1:5-7 emphasizes that God is light—pure, holy, and without darkness—and calls believers to live in that light. John’s words both expose false teachers and affirm true believers by showing that genuine faith is marked by walking in holiness, repentance, and truth. Walking in the light not only deepens fellowship with God but also strengthens fellowship with other believers, reflecting the love and unity of the family of God.
Bad theology hurts people! John’s letter is a direct response to heresy in defense of the gospel and the Christian faith. We may not have the exact same historical heresies in the modern Christian faith, but we do have the same heart struggles. In 1 John 1:1-4, John will give us 4 essential doctrinal truths that we'll unpack in this sermon.
God created you to be a part of something bigger than yourself. Engaging in the body of Christ and His mission includes us but goes beyond us. This message looks at Acts 2:42-47 and draws out 6 characteristics found in the first church in Jerusalem.
If your past—your hardships, pain, or struggles—have felt like weighted chains and have affected your relationship with God, it’s time to allow the truth of God’s Word to set you free! Allow God's Word to teach you that pain and suffering are not obstacles from being used by God, but opportunities that enrich His greater purpose for our lives.
For thousands of years the deep question of "why am I here" has been asked. God tells us through His Word that we were not born an accident or out of chance. We were made for more! This message looks at Colossians 1:13 and draw out 3 truth's that help answer the question, why am I here?
2 Samuel 24 is the final chapter of David's life, focusing on his moral failure, the consequences of his actions and God’s mercy. This message reveals God to us in 4 distinct ways and leaves us with a picture of hope in Jesus Christ.
2 Samuel 22 is a song from King David. It's a personal song to God that describes God as his hope, rescuer and restorer. This message will show us how God can be our hope, rescuer and restorer. All because of a Jesus!
David had failed God, but God did not fail David. Even though David needed to endure the consequences of his sins, God did not forsake David. In fact, God restores David's kingdom and through the pain of God's disciple, God did work in his heart. This was seen in how David responds to Shimei, Mephibosheth and Barzillai.
David's sins were forgiven but he still suffered the consequences. You can always be forgiven but you can't un-sin. Despite the harvest of David's sin, God was at work. This message focuses on how God uses our mistakes to grow us deeper and closer to Him. God is not rejecting you, He is restoring you.
