God Is Faithful

Sermon on 10/18/26 by Pastor Todd Sapp Whether you're standing on the mountaintop or taking out the trash in the mundane routines of life, God is present, active, and faithful. In this powerful message through Genesis 35, we walk alongside Jacob as he journeys back to Bethel. From confronting past idols and weathering sudden tragedy to facing the fallout of family sin and processing deep grief, Jacob’s story reveals an unchanging truth: God’s faithfulness is never dependent on our perfection. If you are feeling spiritually flat, walking through heartbreak, or wondering if God can still use your story, this sermon is a timely reminder that God does not waste a single moment of your life. 📖 In This Sermon, We Explore: Faithful When We Need Renewal (v. 1–15): Why spiritual fresh starts require discarding the idols, false comforts, and crutches we lean on.Faithful When Tragedy Strikes (v. 16–21): The death of Rachel, the birth of Benjamin, and finding eternal purpose in the middle of unexpected heartbreak.Faithful When Sin Enters the House (v. 22–26): Reuben’s failure, the completion of the 12 sons of Israel, and why human sin cannot derail God’s promises.Faithful When Grief Shakes Us (v. 27–29): The passing of Isaac, the miraculous reconciliation of Jacob and Esau, and grieving with real hope.Hashtags: #Genesis35 #FaithInHardTimes #ChristianSermon #GodIsFaithful #BibleStudy #GriefAndHope #JacobAndEsau #SpiritualRenewal #BiblicalTeaching #JesusSaves Music used with Permission through our CCLI Copyright License Number #54024 and Streaming License Number #20133927 Find out more about Northwoods Church at www.nwctally.com

Becoming Great

Sermon on 10/11/2026 by Pastor Todd Sapp What defines true greatness? While sports fans love debating the greatest of all time (GOAT)—from Michael Jordan and Babe Ruth to Muhammad Ali and Tom Brady—Jesus presents a completely radically different standard for greatness in the Kingdom of God. In this message on Mark 10:35–45, we unpack the request of James and John (the sons of Zebedee) to sit at the right and left hand of Jesus in His glory. Discover how Jesus redefines leadership, honor, and authority by showing us that biblical greatness isn't measured by status or accolades—it is proven through self-sacrificial service. Whether you are looking for biblical leadership lessons, practical ways to serve in your local church, or a deeper understanding of Jesus as the ultimate ransom for our sins, this message will challenge your motives and inspire you to serve like Christ. #BiblicalGreatness #ServantLeadership #Mark10 #Sermon #GospelOfMark #JesusChrist #DeaconOrdination #ChristianLiving #BibleStudy #ChristianSermon #KingdomOfGod #ChurchLeadership Music used with Permission through our CCLI Copyright License Number #54024 and Streaming License Number #20133927 Find out more about Northwoods Church at www.nwctally.com

When You Are Between Here And There Part II

Sermon on 10/4/2026 by Pastor Todd Sapp Have you ever felt like you took a wrong turn, got delayed, or messed up so badly that you off-tracked God’s plan for your life? In this powerful sermon on Genesis 33:1–20, we explore the story of Jacob returning home to face his brother Esau. Through Jacob's journey, we are reminded that spiritual growth is a gradual process—and even when we take detours, run into setbacks, or make missteps, God is always faithful to keep His promises. Just like a GPS recalculating a route, God doesn't cancel our destination when we stumble. He works through our delays, refines us in our daily routines, and continually guides us back into His grace and purpose.

When You Are Between Here And There Part I

Sermon on 9/27/2026 by Pastor Todd Sapp Have you ever avoided someone at all costs—changing paths at a coffee shop or continually rescheduling a phone call? In this sermon on Genesis 33:1–20, we look at what to do when you're stuck "between here and there"—between where you are now and where God is taking you. Before Jacob could step into his promised destiny, God called him to address a broken relationship he had spent over 20 years avoiding: his estranged brother, Esau. Discover how true humility, forgiveness, and active reconciliation reflect God's grace and restore peace in our lives today. Key Takeaways First Things First: When navigating transitions, God prioritizes mending damaged relationships over reaching our next destination.The Power of Humility: Jacob went from an arrogant schemer to bowing seven times before his brother, demonstrating genuine repentance.God Changes Hearts: Where Jacob expected anger, Esau ran, embraced, and kissed him—a powerful picture of unconditional forgiveness paralleled in Jesus’s Parable of the Prodigal Son (Luke 15).Doing Your Part: Whether you need to seek forgiveness like Jacob or offer it like Esau, Christians are called to live peaceably with everyone as far as it depends on them (Romans 12:18; Matthew 5:23–24).Hashtags: #Genesis33 #BibleSermon #Forgiveness #Reconciliation #ChristianLiving #FaithAndRelationships #ExpositoryPreaching Music used with Permission through our CCLI Copyright License Number #54024 and Streaming License Number #20133927 Find out more about Northwoods Church at www.nwctally.com

Grace Encounters

Sermon on 9/20/2026 by Pastor Todd Sapp What happens when you have a close encounter with God? In this sermon on Genesis 32, we look at the life of Jacob and his late-night wrestling match at the Jabbok River—contrasting human pop culture like Steven Spielberg's Close Encounters of the Third Kind with a real, divine encounter. While pop-culture encounters often leave people broken or ruined, a true encounter with God’s grace doesn't destroy us—it transforms us. Join us as we walk step-by-step through Genesis 32:22–32 and explore how God confronts our self-reliance, breaks our pride, and renames our character for His glory. 📌 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS SERMON Grace Confronts Us: God doesn't leave us on a self-destructive path; He lovingly steps into our lives to redirect us.Grace Breaks Us: Jacob’s limp became a daily reminder that true strength comes from dependence on God, not self-reliance.Grace Changes Us: From "Jacob" (Deceiver) to "Israel" (God Fights), God transforms our character to conform us to the image of His Son (Romans 8:29).Genesis 32 sermon, Jacob wrestling with God, Genesis 32 22 32, Gods grace sermon, Jacob and Esau story, meaning of Jacob to Israel, sermon on grace, Christian expository preaching, Bible study Genesis 32, Peniel Bible meaning, Close Encounters of the Third Kind illustration, spiritual transformation, how God changes us, Christian theology of grace Music used with Permission through our CCLI Copyright License Number #54024 and Streaming License Number #20133927 Find out more about Northwoods Church at www.nwctally.com
