    Growing God's Kingdom Series

    Contributed by Clair Sauer on Jun 23, 2016
     | 9,925 views

    When we plant the seed of our souls in God's care, we will be a part of the amazing, unimaginable, and yet seemingly mysterious growth of God's Kingdom.

    Several years ago, a company mailed out some special advertising business post cards with a mustard seed glued to it with a caption that went something like this: "If you have faith as small as this mustard seed in our (product), you are guaranteed to get excellent results and be totally ...read more

    In The Beginning Series

    Contributed by Clair Sauer on Jun 15, 2016
     | 7,033 views

    The Garden of Eden reveals God's gracious love for humanity as well as our call to serve God's creation.

    Before Owen was born, someone gave us a children’s book called, I Love My Mommy Because…You might be familiar with the book, there is also one called, I Love My Daddy Because…but we didn’t get one of those books until more recently. In any case, on one page of the ...read more

    Moved By The Spirit

    Contributed by Clair Sauer on May 12, 2016
     | 6,012 views

    A Pentecost sermon focusing on the promise of God's enduring presence with us through the Holy Spirit.

    The story you just heard is the story of the first Pentecost day. Today is Pentecost Sunday, and that is going to be the framework for our message this morning. So that we all start on the same page, let me explain a bit of the history of Pentecost. Pentecost comes from the Greek word, ...read more

    God Said It, I Believe It, That Settles It Series

    Contributed by Clair Sauer on Apr 28, 2016
     | 22,316 views

    We often use this phrase to defend our actions or to attack the beliefs or actions of another, but the Word of God requires more reflection beyond a simple adherence. Ultimately, we must look to the revelation of the Word made flesh, Jesus Christ.

    “God said it, I believe it, that settles it,” is another phrase we hear tossed around a lot by Christians. So we are going to give some thought to this phrase today as we continue our sermon series, “Bible or Not,” where we explore the true meaning behind some phrases ...read more

    Money Is The Root Of All Evil Series

    Contributed by Clair Sauer on Apr 21, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,843 views

    Like so many things in life, money is not inherently bad, but our perspective on money can cause lots of problems.

    We’re now right in the middle of this series, “Bible or Not,” where we are exploring these phrases that are often used, and are also often considered to be Biblical, but which are not actually found in the Bible. These “Christianese” phrases we are exploring in this ...read more

    God Helps Those Who Help Themselves Series

    Contributed by Clair Sauer on Apr 14, 2016
     | 6,916 views

    We cannot expect God to provide for our every need as we sit idly by, so in that sense it is true to say that "God helps those who help themselves," but there are also times when we cannot help ourselves, and God intervenes in those times to save us.

    So we continue this week our look at some phrases commonly spoken by Christians and others that sound Biblical and perhaps hold some truth about our faith, but which aren’t entirely true. This week, we are thinking about the phrase, “God helps those who help themselves.” Now, as I ...read more

    Believable?

    Contributed by Clair Sauer on Apr 14, 2016
     | 5,193 views

    Do you show the love of Christ in and through or life, or is it just something you talk about?

    I want to begin by simply saying, “thank you.” I am extremely honored and deeply grateful for the invitation to share this day with you. I so humbled that Kathy Farner heard my name and gave me a call, and I know we want to keep her in prayer as she is home today with ongoing health ...read more

    Everything Happens For A Reason Series

    Contributed by Clair Sauer on Apr 14, 2016
    based on 2 ratings
     | 11,528 views

    People often say "Everything happens for a reason." An implication of this is that everything happens because God wills it. This can be difficult to reconcile with belief in a God who is good. This sermon looks at the truth and untruth of this statement.

    We’re going to start off this morning with a little trivia. Kip’s going to put some statements on the screen and we are going to decide whether these sentences come from the Bible or not. This is just a little game, we’ll do a few of these every Sunday for the next few weeks for a ...read more

    Got Peace? Series

    Contributed by Clair Sauer on Apr 14, 2016
     | 7,789 views

    After his resurrection, Christ repeatedly offers peace to his disciples. Christ understands our need for true peace.

    So I want to start by taking a quick poll. We spent the six weeks of Lent searching for peace in an anxious world. And now I’m just curious…anybody feel like you’ve now achieved the greatest possible peace in your life? What about the disciples? Our Scripture reading from John ...read more

    The Light Of Life Series

    Contributed by Clair Sauer on Apr 14, 2016
     | 4,557 views

    An Easter sermon on the light of Christ that over powers all the darkness of this world!

    Darkness is a funny thing, isn't it? We have to have darkness; it helps us get better sleep. Sometimes in the midst of a headache or an especially sunny day, we long for a few moments of darkness. Darkness is good for a movie or a haunted house. But then again, too much darkness can be a bad thing ...read more

    Facing Our Emotions Series

    Contributed by Clair Sauer on Mar 17, 2016
     | 5,363 views

    A Palm Sunday message about the importance of dealing with our sorrows in order to more fully experience the peace and joy of Christ.

    Jesus has set his face toward Jerusalem. For three years he has been calling disciples, teaching crowds, healing the lame, welcoming outcasts, and dining with sinners. He has been teaching about God’s new covenant and the reality of God’s kingdom, even as he embodied it. Now, it is time ...read more

    Pause Series

    Contributed by Clair Sauer on Mar 14, 2016
     | 7,054 views

    Experiencing peace in our lives requires staying connected to the Holy Spirit, God's peaceful presence within us.

    Last Sunday afternoon, I left church and headed home. My plan was to get home, feed Owen some lunch, put him down for a nap, and then start working. Well, you know how the saying goes, “The best laid plans…” I pulled out of the parking lot and headed down East Brainerd Road ...read more

    Fostering Community Series

    Contributed by Clair Sauer on Mar 14, 2016
     | 5,069 views

    In a world of division and strife, finding peace means building healthy relationships and strong community based in Christ's love.

    As I prayed over and prepared this sermon this week, I kept thinking how ironic it is to be writing a sermon about fostering community in the wake of a very contentious Super Tuesday primary. If anything, for weeks, we have watched the breakdown of community played out right before our eyes on TV, ...read more

    Contributed by Clair Sauer on Feb 26, 2016
     | 4,808 views

    Experiencing peace in our lives means keeping an open connection with the God of all peace through prayer.

    What are some of the things that cause you worry and anxiety? I’m sure we’ve all been thinking about this over the last few weeks as we have worked to “Find Peace in an Anxious World.” Each of us deals with worry in big and small ways at various points in our lives and for ...read more

    Fresh Perspective, Fresh Outlook Series

    Contributed by Clair Sauer on Feb 18, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,595 views

    Much of our anxiety and stress grows out of our attempts to live according to worldly standards. We will find peace when we are grounded in our God-given identity, Christ's new creation.

    There was a New York Times article making the rounds on social media this week called “Death, the Prosperity Gospel and Me.” This article was written by Kate Bowler, who is a historian of the American Prosperity Gospel, and the author of the recent book, Blessed. To oversimplify it a ...read more
