Stony Ground - Pastor Brian Keesler
Sermon Recap
Are you living a life of balance? Mark 4:16-17 speaks of the Word falling on the stony ground of someone who, when they hear the word, immediately receive it with gladness, but do not have any root so they can only endure for a short time. In part two of the sermon series, Receiving the Word, Pastor Brian Keesler shares that if your walk with the Lord seems to have halted it may be time to ask yourself if your Bible reading and prayer life is greater than, less than or equal to your extracurricular activities.
Avoiding Offense - Reverend Sam Wells
Sermon Recap
Encountering offense is unavoidable, but remaining in its grip is. In the sermon, Avoiding Offense, Reverend Sam Wells reminds believers that even if they are not offended right now, they can expect to be in the future. Offenses will come, but Reverend Sam reminds the church that it possesses two choices.: 1) they can either let the offense go, or 2) they can let the offense take root in their heart. Choosing to let go of the offense will allow that person to remain unhindered in their walk with the Lord, but choosing to hold on to the offense will result in the hurt taking root in their life. The fruit of remaining offended includes betrayal, bitterness, unbelief, unforgiveness, and other toxic behaviors. In addition, choosing to remain offended can even block your calling and ministry. Don’t let offense weigh you down—throw off every burden and run your race with endurance.
Scripture Reference
But I say to you that whoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment. And whoever says to his brother, ‘Raca!’ shall be in danger of the council. But whoever says, ‘You fool!’ shall be in danger of hell fire. Therefore if you bring your gift to the altar, and there remember that your brother has something against you, leave your gift there before the altar, and go your way. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift. Matthew 5:22-24 (NKJV)
