  1. I Love This Song: Brokenness // Psalm 51

    3d ago

    I Love This Song: Brokenness // Psalm 51

    Psalm 51 is King David's raw, personal cry to God after his greatest failure, and it might be the most honest prayer in the Bible. In this message, we walk through the story of David and Bathsheba, what true repentance actually looks like, and why God doesn't just forgive, He fully restores. No matter what you've done, there is no darkness too deep for His light to reach. 📖 Psalm 51 | 2 Corinthians 7:10 | 1 John 1:9 If Hillcrest isn't your church home yet, we'd love to have you, in person or online. 🙏Cedar Hill, TX | hillcrestbc.com WEBSITE: https://www.hillcrestbc.com📸 INSTAGRAM: (https://www.instagram.com/hillcrest_bc/)📘 FACEBOOK: (https://www.facebook.com/hbcministries)

  2. I Love This Song: Useful vs. Beautiful // Psalm 27

    Jun 22

    I Love This Song: Useful vs. Beautiful // Psalm 27

    Psalm 27 is a deeply personal declaration from a man who chose to preach truth to his own soul when everything around him was falling apart. David's confidence was not rooted in his circumstances but in the character of God. His one desire was not comfort or success but to dwell in the presence of God and behold His beauty. Real faith is not built in dramatic moments. It is built in the small, daily acts of faithfulness and obedience. Waiting on God is not passive resignation. It is active, trusting patience that refuses to leave His presence. The presence David longed for in the temple was ultimately fulfilled in Jesus Christ, who became broken so that broken people could be made whole. Grounding in God comes through personally knowing God 27:1-3Confidence 27:4-6Closeness 27:7-10Countenance 27:11-14Courage The Lord most beautiful became ugly, that we might become beautiful and strong WEBSITE: https://www.hillcrestbc.com📸 INSTAGRAM: (https://www.instagram.com/hillcrest_bc/)📘 FACEBOOK: (https://www.facebook.com/hbcministries)

    I Love This Song: A Song to Remember // Psalm 145 – Michael Ruiz

    In this powerful message, College Minister Michael Ruiz drops a game-changing truth: we are often quick to forget yesterday’s triumphs the second today’s troubles hit. Walking through the entirety of Psalm 145, Michael uncovers a brilliant "hidden" framework King David used to keep his heart fully alive and rescued from apathy.

    I Love This Song: Two Paths // Psalm 1

    Discover the biblical secret to lasting happiness and satisfaction in life. This message explores Psalm 1 and reveals why so many people struggle to find true contentment despite their best efforts.

Find out what it really means to delight in God's law and how biblical meditation differs from worldly practices. Learn practical steps for reading, revering, meditating on, and meeting with God through His Word.

This biblical teaching addresses common questions about happiness, satisfaction, spiritual growth, Bible study, meditation, and living according to God's will. Perfect for anyone seeking deeper meaning, purpose, and joy in life through a relationship with God. Includes practical application questions and steps for implementing these truths in daily life.

  6. Health Camp: A King's Culture // Colossians 3:1-17 – Zach Elkins

    Health Camp: A King's Culture // Colossians 3:1-17 – Zach Elkins

    Jesus didn't come to make bad people good. He came to make dead people alive. Because of that, the Christian life demands an active response. Pastor Zach gave us three challenges: Reorient your heart toward Christ and away from sin. Strip off the old self, sinful passions and pride block the fullness of Christ in your life. And clothe yourself in godliness; reflecting, resting, rejoicing, and running for your Savior every single day. The Christian life is a daily decision to put off what no longer belongs to you and put on who Christ has called you to be. Colossians 3:1-17 Jesus didn’t come to make bad people good; He came to make dead people alive. He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep, to gain what he cannot lose. - Jim Elliot 1. I need to reorient my heart’s pursuits & passions toward my eternal dwelling in Christ’s presence and His glory. Flee sinConfess sinRepent of sinPut to death sinResist temptationForsake sinful waysHate evilPursue holinessWalk by the Spirit 2. We must strip off sinful passions & sinful pride, to experience the fullness of Christ. 3. We must clothe ourselves in Godliness.a. We must put on spiritual clothes in which we accurately reflect our Savior (12-14)b. We must put on spiritual clothes in which we can comfortably rest in our Savior (15)c. We must put on spiritual clothes in which we can gratefully rejoice in our Savior (16)d. We must put on spiritual clothes in which we can actively run for our Savior (17) WEBSITE: https://www.hillcrestbc.com📸 INSTAGRAM: (https://www.instagram.com/hillcrest_bc/)📘 FACEBOOK: (https://www.facebook.com/hbcministries)

    Health Camp: Uncompromising // Colossians 2:16-23

    Have you settled? Not for less money or a smaller house, but for a faith that looks right on the outside while missing Christ at the center? In this message from Colossians 2:16-23, Pastor Jordan challenges us to examine whether we've traded the living Christ for dead religion, feel-good spirituality, or the pressures of the age. Because when Christ is your foundation, nothing else can compare. Colossians 2:16-23 Have you settled for dead religion? (v. 16-17)The lie of religion: Christ Is the substance 2. Have you settled for spirituality? (v. 18-19) Christ-less or Christian-ish spiritualityChrist is the Head of the Church 3. Have you settled for ‘the times’? (v. 20-23) With Christ we diedWhen Christ died:WEBSITE: https://www.hillcrestbc.com📸 INSTAGRAM: (https://www.instagram.com/hillcrest_bc/)📘 FACEBOOK: (https://www.facebook.com/hbcministries)

    A Woman of God: Deborah the Brave // Judges 4

    This week, we take a break from our sermon series in Colossians to look at Biblical womanhood and the role model of Deborah in the book of Judges. Women have a role to play and it's not on the sideline. Judges 4:1-3 Look at the sequence of things: They were living against GodThey wanted God to help themLook at the wording of things: They were doing "what was evil" in God’s eyesThey "cry out" to God for helpLook at the state of things: They believe living however they want is freedomThey are in a state of corruption, brokenness, and chaosDetaching from God doesn’t lead to our destiny, it leads to destruction Judges 4:4-7 Deborah was a divinely gifted woman Deborah was a declarer of truth Deborah was devoted to God Judges 4:8-10 Barack’s tragically of misplaced hope “Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.” - Psalm 20:7 In those days there was no king in Israel. Everyone did what was right in his own eyes. - Judges 21:25 And the LORD said to Samuel, “Listen to the voice of the people in all that they say to you. For it is not you they have rejected, but they have rejected Me as their king.” - 1 Samuel 8:7 We're left on a cliff hanger… …until the cross WEBSITE: https://www.hillcrestbc.com📸 INSTAGRAM: (hillcrest_bc)📘 FACEBOOK: (hbcministries)
