 This first sermon of this new Faith That Works series specifically addresses the testing of your faith, the purpose of trials, and trusting with doubt. The book of James goes after a “Faith that doesn’t just work in us, but a faith that gets to work".  

Celebrating 20 years of partnership with Narrow Gate, a nonprofit organization dedicated to educating, inspiring, and empowering Christian discipleship, to equip and train young men, develop business discipleship platforms, and serve the Church locally and globally. 

The person of Jesus changes everything. Jesus didn’t leave us alone, he left so that he could always be with us in the person of the Spirit. Access to heaven when we die is a promise. Access to relationship with Christ until we die is a lifeline.

"And he who was seated on the throne said, 'Behold, I am making all things new.'" (Revelation 21:5 NIV)
When we come to God, He doesn’t just redeem from this point forward, He redeems all. He redeems every aspect of our lives that we entrust to Him, and repurposes it for our good and His glory.

On April 6, 32AD a man rode into Jerusalem on the foal of a donkey, and for the first time allowed Himself to be worshiped as the Annointed One. Jesus came down, not as a conquering King but as a suffering servant. He denied Himself, and through the death of Christ, new life springs forth, eternal life springs forth.

Faith is far more about trust in every circumstance than it is about getting the outcome that we’re after.  Faith is about trusting God in all circumstances… not just trusting Him when He fixes our circumstances. God can do all things. He is all powerful, all present, and all knowing! God can do all things… including bringing dead things back to life.
