Title: How Did It Happen
Topic: Holy Spirit
Scripture: John 14:15-17
Life is full of questions for which we often do not have the answers. When a terrible event occurs, we wonder – Where is God? When something unbelievable occurs, we ask a different question – How did it happen? In this week’s sermon, Rev. Larsen uses the example of a woman who, only through the power of the Holy Spirit, did what she thought was not possible. See how the Holy Spirit can also work in your life to do the seemingly impossible.

Title: Truth and Culture
Topic: Faithfulness
Scripture: Luke 24:44-53
On the day of his ascension to heaven, Jesus gave his disciples their mission: preach repentance and forgiveness to all people. Two thousand years later, that message has not changed. However, we live in a day when society questions the moral absolutes of yesterday. Should the Church of Jesus Christ adjust God’s Word so that it can better relate to our culture and not be offensive to the academically elite? We’ll discuss that question in this week’s sermon.

Title: A New Day
Topic: Resurrection of Jesus
Scripture: Mark 16:1-18
It is wonderful when the message that Jesus Christ is alive becomes a part of our souls. Sometimes it takes tragic experiences in order for us to meet him. In this week’s sermon, we will talk about a man who met Jesus in a very unpleasant circumstance. Yet he, like the blind man in John 9, rejoiced in his calamity, for through it Jesus became alive to him and his soul was saved. When this happens, it is truly a new day!

Title: The Importance of Time
Topic: Lifestyle Questions
Scripture: John 9:1-3
Which is more important – money or time? We know the value of money and we stress its importance. However, in this week’s sermon, Jesus emphasizes the value of time. Throughout the scriptures is a note of urgency about getting the message of Christ out to the world. As long as we are able, we have a mission to do, for God’s precious gift of time quickly flees away.

Title: A Consistent Witness
Topic: Witnessing
Scripture: John 9:1-16
Do you find it easier to keep silent than to speak up about your faith when others doubt the power of God? The value of a consistent Christian witness is extremely important to God. In this week’s sermon, we will talk about two people – one a famous football coach, the other born with a disability – who were not afraid to tell others how Jesus has affected their lives. Their witness at an especially stressful time proved invaluable to those around them, and it serves as an example for us.
