    Salty Saints

    Christians are called to be salt in a bitter world, but many have become contaminated, diluted, or divided, losing their effectiveness. True salt brings flavor, preservation, cleansing, and healing rather than the bitter saltiness that dominates today's culture. We lose our saltiness through syncretism (mixing worldly views with biblical truth), watering down the gospel to avoid offense, and allowing division within the church. Romans 12:9-21 shows us what pure salt looks like: genuine love, clear moral boundaries, patience, prayer, blessing those who persecute us, and overcoming evil with good. The key question is not what's happening to you, but what's happening because of you when people encounter your life.

    Soil Samples

    The condition of your heart serves as spiritual soil that determines whether God's word takes root and produces fruit in your life. Just as farmers test soil conditions to maximize their harvest, we need to examine our hearts to understand what prevents us from experiencing God's fullness. Your words and actions are like fruit that reveals your true heart condition - what comes out when you're under pressure shows what's really inside. Jesus taught about four types of spiritual soil through the parable of the sower. The wayside represents a hard heart that cannot receive God's word due to consistent resistance to His conviction. The stony places represent a shallow heart that receives the word with joy but lacks depth because stones of unforgiveness, bitterness, and offense prevent deep roots. The thorny places represent a distracted heart where worldly concerns, career obsession, constant worry, and pursuit of wealth choke out spiritual growth. Finally, good ground represents a healthy heart that hears, understands, and produces abundant spiritual fruit. The encouraging truth is that soil conditions aren't permanent. You can move from one type to another based on your choices. To maintain healthy spiritual soil, you must deal with hardness through repentance, remove stones of bitterness and unforgiveness, and pull weeds of distraction and worldly cares. This requires intentional heart maintenance - giving attention to God's words, guarding your speech, keeping your focus on His path, and removing yourself from evil influences.

    Activate The Anchor!

    Beginning a new year often brings a desire for direction and stability, but instead of looking to external sources for prophetic words or guidance, we need to learn how to hear from God ourselves and secure our spiritual anchor. An anchor provides the stable foundation that holds everything else steady, and Jesus serves as our ultimate anchor of hope - not wishful thinking, but an earnest expectation of good based on God's character and faithfulness.We need our spiritual anchor in various seasons of life. During storms and difficulties, when we face low visibility and can't see God's plan clearly, while waiting on His perfect timing, during busy and fruitful periods when our guard might be down, and even when we need rest and restoration. The key is securing this anchor before we need it, not discovering its absence during a crisis.To properly secure our anchor, we must know God's Word deeply, understanding what Scripture says about every area of life including marriage, parenting, finances, health, and relationships. We also need to engage God's presence regularly, following Jesus who has gone before us as our forerunner into the holy place. The ultimate goal is to be so anchored in Christ that we become a source of stability for others, helping them find their own secure foundation in an uncertain world.

    Welcome Home!

    As Christmas approaches, it's easy to get caught up in preparations, family gatherings, and the stress of making everything perfect. However, Christmas is fundamentally about Jesus - God becoming man, dwelling among us, and creating a way for relationship with Him. The foundation begins with believing and receiving Christ, as described in John 3:16-17, where God demonstrates His love by giving His Son for our salvation. This transaction has already been completed; we simply need to believe and receive what God has freely offered. While salvation is a one-time decision, our relationship with Jesus is ongoing and requires daily cultivation. The question becomes whether we're making Jesus feel welcome in our daily lives. The hymn Joy to the World, written by Isaac Watts in 1719, captures this beautifully with the line Let every heart prepare Him room. This isn't about earning God's presence, but about creating a welcoming atmosphere where He can move freely in our lives. There are ten practical ways to welcome God's presence: receiving Him daily with gratitude, spending quality time in His presence, loving Him completely with heart, soul, and mind, loving others as ourselves, serving with humility, choosing forgiveness, going the extra mile even when tired, loving our enemies, following His daily guidance, and living our faith openly. This Christmas season offers an opportunity to move beyond just celebrating Jesus to actually making Him feel at home in our hearts and lives.

    Jesus Loves Me

    This sermon focuses on the profound truth of God's love as expressed in the simple children's song 'Jesus Loves Me.' Pastor Charlotte explores how this seemingly basic truth is actually the foundation of our faith and the source of hope, peace, and joy. She emphasizes that God's love is not just an intellectual concept but a personal, transformative reality that changes how we live. The message traces the history of the song 'Jesus Loves Me' and connects it to the Christmas story, showing how God's love motivated Him to send Jesus. Pastor Charlotte  challenges listeners to move beyond just knowing about God's love to actually believing and receiving it personally, allowing it to transform their lives from selfishness to selfless service.

    Only One Thing - JESUS

    The Advent season invites us into a journey of hope, beginning with understanding what biblical hope truly means. Unlike cultural definitions that suggest wishful thinking, biblical hope represents earnest expectation of good based on God's character and faithfulness. Simeon's story from Luke 2 demonstrates this perfectly - he had received a promise from the Holy Spirit that he wouldn't die before seeing the Messiah, and he waited with confident anticipation rather than passive resignation. Waiting is inherently difficult for humans, especially in our fast-paced world where multitasking has become the norm. However, our brains aren't designed for multitasking - they rapidly switch between tasks, causing mental fatigue and making stillness feel uncomfortable. Yet waiting is the very thing that transforms us when we approach it correctly. Simeon wasn't passive in his waiting; he was actively led by the Holy Spirit and positioned to recognize God's movement. Three essential truths emerge about hope: it's a choice we make rather than a feeling, it must be anchored on something unchanging (Jesus rather than circumstances), and it's fundamentally a relationship with the faithful God who keeps His promises. Like Abraham, who didn't consider his physical limitations but trusted God's supernatural ability to fulfill promises, we must shift our focus from natural circumstances to our supernatural God. This Advent season challenges us to choose the one thing that matters most - Jesus Himself - making this Christmas centered on Him rather than the busyness and distractions that typically consume December.
