    Sunday Sermon | Why He Came: To Defeat Death

    Death is something every person faces—but it’s also something most of us try to avoid thinking about. In this message, Garrett McCord walks through 1 Corinthians 15 to show why Jesus didn’t just come to forgive sin, but to defeat death itself. Because of the resurrection, death no longer gets the final word, and real hope is possible even in grief, fear, and loss. Key Takeaways: Death entered the world through sin, but life comes through Jesus ChristJesus’ resurrection is the guarantee of our future resurrectionDeath still exists, but its power has been brokenFor those in Christ, death is no longer a prison but a doorway to lifeThe hope of resurrection changes how we face fear, grief, and sufferingScripture: 1 Corinthians 15:20–28 Sermon Link: Listen or watch this message at fbcboerne.org/sermons If this message encouraged you, consider sharing it with someone who needs hope in the face of loss or fear. https://www.fbcboerne.org/sermons/ https://www.facebook.com/fbcboerne

    Sunday Sermon | Why He Came: To Save His People from Their Sins

    You’re not just tired — you’re carrying something you can’t fix on your own. This Christmas message shows why Jesus didn’t come to decorate your life, but to rescue it. In this message from Matthew 1:20–21, FBC Boerne Pastor shows us why King Jesus came — to save His people from their sins and why it matters for real life. This sermon will strengthen your faith, clarify what’s true, and point you back to what actually satisfies. Key Takeaways Jesus came because your deepest need isn’t comfort — it’s rescue. The gospel is not self-improvement — it’s salvation from sin through Jesus. Real peace comes when you stop trying to save yourself and trust the Savior. Hope is real because Jesus came to reverse the curse and make all things new.

    Sunday Sermon | Why He Came: To Seek and Save the Lost

    We trace the story of Zacchaeus to show how Christmas is a rescue mission and how grace pursues people we often ignore. We compare the rich ruler, the blind beggar, and a despised tax chief to reveal how saving faith produces joyful repentance and generous restitution. • Why Zacchaeus sits beside the rich ruler and blind beggar in Luke • How Jericho’s wealth and tax system bred exploitation and isolation • Jesus calling Zacchaeus by name and inviting himself in • Crowd grievance versus Christlike compassion • Repentance shown through generosity and restitution • Salvation declared as the purpose of the Son of Man • Christmas framed as God’s active pursuit of the lost • Practical steps to seek the lost and embrace divine interruptions https://www.fbcboerne.org/sermons/ https://www.facebook.com/fbcboerne

  4. Sunday Sermon | Why He Came: The Good Shepherd

    Sunday Sermon | Why He Came: The Good Shepherd

    Some leaders take from people; the best leaders give themselves to people. That contrast sits at the center of a message that moves from a miracle in John 9 to a bold claim in John 10: Jesus is the Good Shepherd who lays down His life for the sheep and gives them abundant life. Pastor Jason Smith unpacks the tension between false shepherds who guard their status and the true Shepherd who guards our souls, and we follow the thread back to Ezekiel 34, where God promises to come and personally seek, bind, feed, and give His people rest. We talk about the ache of wounded authority and why so many of us brace when we hear the word “leadership.” Then we let Jesus redefine it. His voice doesn’t manipulate; it restores. His authority doesn’t crush; it carries. Through vivid stories—a rescued sheep, a mother’s sacrifice, and a son’s baseball memories—we explore how love that gives itself away changes everything. The point isn’t to romanticize pain but to show that absolute abundance starts where lesser comforts end. Joy, peace, forgiveness, and deep purpose are not luxuries for the lucky; they are gifts from the Shepherd who knows our names. Abundant life isn’t a lottery win or a platform. It is a soul stocked with lasting good: courage that steadies in dark valleys, grace that ends shame’s spin, and a sense that ordinary days can echo into eternity. We listen to Jesus’ promise, consider God’s delight in doing us good, and ask what surrender actually looks like—trusting in provision, receiving guidance, and letting His presence become the end behind every good gift. If you’ve been scattered by fear or burned by bad shepherds, this conversation offers clear-eyed hope and a better path forward with a Shepherd who is for you. https://www.fbcboerne.org/sermons/ https://www.facebook.com/fbcboerne

    Sunday Sermon | Why He Came: The Baby, King & Lamb

    What if the Author stepped onto the stage of His own story—not to dazzle from a distance, but to draw near and save? We follow that daring claim from literature and history into the heart of Christmas, where the infinite becomes an infant and the invisible God becomes visible. Grounded in Luke’s nativity and echoed by prophetic voices, we trace the signs that surrounded the birth of Jesus—angels announcing to shepherds, a star guiding seekers, and a threatened king opposing a kingdom not built on swords.We talk about why the King chose a manger instead of a palace and how that choice reveals God’s character. Humility here is not a pose; it is the pulse of true greatness. The child in swaddling cloths grows into the servant King who wears a crown of thorns, not to conquer nations but to conquer sin. Along the way, we explore the deep comfort of being known: the One who holds all things together knows what it is to be hungry, misunderstood, rejected, and in pain. If you have felt overlooked or crushed by circumstance, this story says, “I understand,” and then it goes further to say, “I am with you.”Finally, we turn to the Lamb. The name Jesus signals a mission—He will save His people from their sins—binding cradle to cross. Drawing on voices like Jonathan Edwards and John Owen, we consider why only the God-man can carry that work to completion, and why salvation is not a program but a person to know. The question becomes personal: do you know Him? If your heart is stirred to respond, consider the invitation to surrender pride, repent, and believe, trusting the finished work of Christ and welcoming the Holy Spirit’s presence.If this conversation moved you, share it with a friend, leave a review to help others find it, and subscribe so you never miss new episodes.

  6. Sunday Sermon | Why He Came: Destroy the Works of the Devil

    Sunday Sermon | Why He Came: Destroy the Works of the Devil

    What if Christmas isn’t about cozy sentiment but a royal invasion that shatters winter? Pastor Daniel Justice opens with 1 John 3:8 to claim something fierce and freeing: the Son of God appeared to destroy the works of the devil. From there, we trace how that victory moves from doctrine to daily life through the simple, demanding habit Scripture calls abiding. We start with identity. The enemy keeps us stuck in who we were; the Gospel names who we are now—children of God, not yet what we will be, but already rescued and being remade. We unpack the “already and not yet” of salvation and use the D‑Day analogy to show why battles remain even though the war is won. That shift loosens shame and builds confidence rooted in Christ, not in performance. Then we talk honestly about sin. Scripture calls it lawlessness—mutiny against a holy God—not quirks to manage. Jesus didn’t come to negotiate with sin but to take it away. Abiding in Christ breaks the cycle of habitual sin by reshaping desires and habits through the word, prayer, confession, and community. Victory isn’t swagger; it’s a new birth. Born of God, we receive new power and new behaviors as the Spirit conforms us to the Son. To make this walkable, Pastor Daniel shares four guardrails: mastery (what controls you), eternity (what holds your gaze), unity (who you’re united with), and ownership (who you belong to). These anchors help us stop giving ground to a defeated enemy and start living like the King has returned. The result is practical freedom: less hiding, more holiness; less defeat, more joy; less winter, more spring. https://www.fbcboerne.org/sermons/ https://www.facebook.com/fbcboerne

  7. Why He Came: To Serve & Give His Life as a Ransom

    Why He Came: To Serve & Give His Life as a Ransom

    Pastor Jason Smith unpacks the cultural pull to “lord it over” others—chasing power, image, and control—and contrasts it with the basin-and-towel leadership of Jesus. Foot washing is not a sentimental detail; it’s a disruptive definition of authority. From there, we explore the heart of the Gospel: ransom. In a world where debt meant bondage, Jesus paid the price we could never cover, nailing our record to the cross and freeing us to serve from fullness rather than fear. That freedom turns everyday moments into holy ground: doubling back to run with a tired friend, praying through the real details of someone’s life, trading scoreboard thinking for small, faithful acts of love. We also lift our eyes to a staggering promise: the Servant-King continues to serve his people, unfolding grace and joy into eternity. If that’s the shape of God’s greatness, we don’t need to clutch at status to matter. We can pour out, knowing the verdict over us is secure. Whether you carry spiritual fatigue, nagging comparison, or a quiet ache to matter, you’ll find clarity, conviction, and hope for a different way to live—strong and low, bold and gentle, grounded in the finished work of Jesus. https://www.fbcboerne.org/sermons/ https://www.facebook.com/fbcboerne

  8. Recharge | The Holy Spirit: Not a Feeling

    Recharge | The Holy Spirit: Not a Feeling

    The Holy Spirit is not a feeling. He is a person who keeps his promises, whether our hearts are on fire or barely flickering. Together, we explore how Scripture reframes the inner life: faith over feelings, truth over impressions, and formation over fleeting moments. Drawing from Romans 8 and Galatians 5, we unpack the Spirit’s central aim—to conform us to the image of Jesus—and why that work often progresses through trials, rather than around them. We share practical ways to preach to your own soul, to root hope in God’s word when sleep, sickness, conflict, or even a lost game tilts your emotions. Along the way, quotes from trusted teachers highlight a hard but freeing reality: God is doing 10,000 things in your life, and you likely see three. https://www.fbcboerne.org/sermons/ https://www.facebook.com/fbcboerne
