Steps to Spiritual Renewal
06/11/11 11:00
Just as there are many misconceptions when trying to learn a new language, so too, many of us have some misconceptions about the Bible. Here are three that come to mind: It’s too confusing to read, it’s too boring to study, it’s impossible to apply. Listen to see how God brought renewal to his people through the word of God.
How to Stop Strife
16/10/11 11:00
It’s much easier to conquer and subdue an enemy who attacks us than it is to forgive and restore a friend who hurts us.
Defeating Discouragement
09/10/11 11:00
When you’re down, turn your attention from your discouragement to the One who is able to do something about it. God has been faithful to you in the past. He is faithful to you today. And He has promised to be faithful to you in the future. Remember the Lord. Remember His promises. Remember His goodness. Remember His power. Our God is great and awesome! Remember Him.
Working Well With Others
02/10/11 11:00
If God’s work is going to get done, we’re called to cooperate with one another, not to compare or criticize. We must keep the main thing by never forgetting that God’s glory is at stake. And, we won’t all give equally, but we can all make equal sacrifices. Remember that nothing has ever been done for God without hard work.
How to Tackle a Tough Job
11/09/11 11:00
Nehemiah did not rely on his resume when it was Time to Build. He got out his tools so that he could handle the tasks ahead of him. In chapter 2 verses 1-10, we’ll see that he had at least 5 tools in his toolbox.
Knowing How to Pray
04/09/11 09:00
This morning we’re kicking off a series based on the book of Nehemiah that we’re calling, “A Time to Build.” Nehemiah is one of the great characters of the Old Testament, but perhaps not as well known as some others. I’m excited about what God is going to teach us as we travel through this book. We’re going to learn things that will help us personally, we’ll discover principles that will guide us as we move into a time of building here at UBC, and we’ll end up understanding a critical part of Old Testament history.
Rooted and Grounded With the Love of Christ
21/08/11 19:00
If we don’t know how to love it’s just like saying we don’t know God. Our world with its shallow and selfish view of love, has turned these words around and contaminated our understanding of love. Real love is like God, who is holy, just and perfect. If we truly know God, we will love as He does.
One Step Closer to God
15/08/11 09:56
People are seeking real life. They’re looking for happiness. David found real life in his closeness with God. But Psalm 16 is actually about Jesus; The One Who loved God more than anything, the One Who was blessed in life by God, and the One Who secured real life.
Some Questions Aren't So Trivial
07/08/11 12:26
Jesus answered some hard questions during His life on this Earth. As Christians today we must take His words to heart and live lives worthy of the Gospel Kingdom. (Speaker: Pastor Francis)
Developing a Passion for Reaching People for Jesus
31/07/11 14:36
We, who are Christians, are all called to be involved in evangelism in some form. Being involved is not an option for the disciple of Jesus. Evangelism isn’t a duty. It’s a huge privilege, and he’s given it to everyone who has already called on Jesus. (Speaker: Pastor Francis)
Developing a Passion for Meeting the Needs of the Family of God
28/07/11 13:04
One of the best signs of a healthy church is when someone sees a need and gets going to meet it. They see a need and they take action. (Speaker: Pastor Francis)
Developing a Passion for Becoming Like Christ
17/07/11 09:46
Jesus wants all of you. Not just your church attendance, not just your ministry involvement, not just your quiet time or devotional time. He wants all of you, all the time, all over the place. (Speaker: Pastor Francis)
Developing a Passion for the Body of Christ
03/07/11 15:25
Do you have a passion to love the Body of Christ? The Body of Christ is the family of God and we are to love each other in spite of the blemishes and imperfections. (Speaker: Pastor Francis)
Developing a Passion for Honoring God
28/06/11 17:18
Passions are not developed accidentally, especially developing a passion for God and honoring Him. Becoming a person who is passionate about worshipping God in every area of our life is something that can only happen with continual, daily submission to Him. (Speaker: Pastor Francis)
