    Trusting God When Worry Takes Over | Psalm 37:1–8 *

    It’s hard to stop worrying when life feels unfair, other people seem to get ahead, and God hasn’t answered the way you hoped. What does it look like to trust Him while you’re still waiting? Psalm 37 calls us to trust the Lord, delight in Him, and be still before Him. But does taking delight in God mean He will give us whatever we want? Pastor Chris Teien explores that promise through personal stories of answered prayer, painful loss, and a decision between a promising career opportunity and the call to ministry. If worry, comparison, or frustration has been consuming your attention, this message offers encouragement to keep doing good and trust God with what you cannot control.

    How Genuine Faith Changes Your Life | James 2:14–26

    If salvation is a gift we can’t earn, why does James say faith without works is dead? Are James and Paul contradicting each other, or are they helping us understand the difference between knowing about Jesus and truly trusting Him? Pastor Chris Teien explores how God’s grace changes our desires and moves us to action. Through the examples of Abraham and Rahab, a familiar airplane illustration, and everyday opportunities to care for others, this message examines what living faith looks like beyond Sunday morning. You don’t have to earn God’s love. But what difference is His love making in the way you live? Message Shared 10/18/2026 at Rockwell Church [de] Helping you understand and apply God’s Word.

    When First Impressions Get It Wrong | James 2:1–13

    How much do someone’s clothes, last name, or apparent wealth influence the way you treat them? First impressions happen quickly, but they can keep us from seeing the person God wants us to love. Drawing from James 2:1–13, Pastor Chris Teien shares memorable stories about suits, muddy boots, and a church’s unexpected financial provision. Each raises a question worth considering: Are we valuing people for who they are, or for what we think they can do for us? This message challenges us to look beyond appearances, recognize favoritism in familiar places, and extend the mercy we’ve received through Jesus.

    Putting God’s Word into Practice | James 1:19–27

    Have you ever been moved by a sermon, highlighted a Bible verse, or felt convicted about something, only to carry on without changing anything? It’s possible to know what God’s Word says and still leave your faith sitting in neutral. With a memorable story about a riding mower that wouldn’t move, Pastor Chris Teien explores the gap between hearing Scripture and putting it into practice. James 1:19–27 challenges us to receive God’s Word with a teachable heart and respond to what it reveals. What might change if your next Bible reading led to one concrete step of obedience? This message offers practical encouragement to move beyond checking off a reading plan and let God’s truth shape your words, choices, and care for others.

    Why Temptation Is So Hard to Resist | James 1:9–18

    Why does temptation seem to offer exactly what you want at just the right moment? Like bait hiding a fishing hook, it promises something appealing while concealing what it could cost. Through fishing stories, an apple fritter illustration, and the teaching of James, Pastor Chris Teien explores how temptation gains a foothold and why willpower alone isn’t enough. How can you recognize the trap before you’re caught? And how do you respond when you’ve already given in? This message offers practical encouragement to resist temptation, trust God’s provision, and find forgiveness when you fall. Past failure doesn’t have to become an excuse to give up.
