These sermons have made an impact on lives at New Hope Church and we hope they bring you closer in your walk with God also.
The Path: Your Heart Matters
Isn’t “most” good? Why does trust call for “all” of our heart? Let’s enter in more together—through worship & readiness—as we continue exploring our Proverb series, The Path Week 3: “Your Heart Matters”
The Path: Making a Course Correction
What determines our shaping as “simple” or “prudent,” “foolish” or “wise”? Come, lean in a bit more as we worship God & explore this together continuing our series in Proverbs & Week 2 of the Path—”Making a Course Correction”
The Path: Your Direction Determines Your Destination
Where are you headed, and where do you want to “end up”? Are they the same? Through worship & the Word, let’s press in a little more together as we start our study in the book of Proverbs this morning & Week 1 of The Path—“Your Direction Determines Your Destination”
Empty
Empty…? God writes a greater story—from death to life. Come fill your belly & your spirit with breakfast before 9am & His message of love & truth & hope during service at 9:30am.
Palm Sunday Postures
We are so excited to have Pastors Lloyd & Kim with us, to worship & respond to the word!
ONE: Last One
LUKE 17:33-36 Whoever tries to keep their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life will preserve it. I tell you, on that night two people will be in one bed; one will be taken and the other left. Two women will be grinding grain together; one will be taken and the other left. MATTHEW 24:47 Truly I tell you, he will put him in charge of all his possessions.
ONE: Wanting No One to Perish
1 PETER 3 The Day of the Lord Dear friends, this is now my second letter to you. I have written both of them as reminders to stimulate you to wholesome thinking. I want you to recall the words spoken in the past by the holy prophets and the command given by our Lord and Savior through your apostles. Above all, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. They…
ONE: Each One Reach One
1 CORINTHIANS 9:19-23 Paul’s Use of His Freedom Though I am free and belong to no one, I have made myself a slave to everyone, to win as many as possible. To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win the Jews. To those under the law I became like one under the law (though I myself am not under the law), so as to win those under the law. To those not having the law I became like…
ONE: Fault Lines Part II
COLOSSIANS 3:12-15 Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And…
ONE: Fault Lines
Big Idea: If the church is going to transform the world, we must be united in our love for Christ & for each other. Anything short of that is defeat. Prayer: Lord, please protect our communities of faith & give us the wisdom we need to walk in unity with one another. EPHESIANS 4:1-6 Unity and Maturity in the Body of Christ As a prisoner for the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling…
ONE: Greater than the Sum of the Parts
Big Idea: We are each made unique. We are each made in the image of God. Individually, that makes us impressive; collectively that makes us unstoppable. 1 CORINTHIANS 12:12-31 Unity and Diversity in the Body Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ. For we were all baptized by one Spirit so as to form one body—whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free—and we were all…
ONE: Masterpiece
Big Idea: You were created in the image of God, a masterpiece made for a purpose. And there is only ONE OF YOU. That means you have a reason to be and a purpose to fulfill. Prayer: “Lord help us to see ourselves and others as the masterpieces that you’ve created us to be.” EPHESIANS 2:10 For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. PHILLIPIANS 2:3-7…
Week Four: Harvest
Big Idea: God, the master gardener, whose ultimate goal is to produce a great harvest in and through each and every person. There is a harvest of spiritual fruit that can be developed in the life of the believer. There is also a harvest of souls that will be a result of God’s work in the individual. THINK: If you allow God to work in your life, you can be a part of a spiritual harvest in the world that…
Week Three: Prune
Big Idea: A natural part of an organic relationship with God is the process of pruning. Just as a plant is healthier after pruning and has revitalized growth, so a Christian experiences growth when unhealthy areas of their lives are trimmed or thinned. Though this process can be painful in the moment, the outcome is divine and beautiful. As a follower of Jesus we must see God’s work in our lives as something that has our best in mind and…
Week Two: Grow
Big Idea: The growth of a Christian is complex and involves many change agents like God’s Word, fellowship with other believers, personal prayer and worship. These things are all very important, but they only serve to set up fertile soil in a Christians heart. The growth comes from God and his exclusive work in our lives. Similar to the part a farmer plays in growing a crop, he tills the soil, he plants the seed, he waters the seed but…
Week One: Planted
Big Idea: The seed of the gospel is available to all. It is sown generously no matter the heart condition of the individual. Its ability to take root and grow when planted is dependent on the condition of the “soil” of one’s heart. THINK: Our goal is to believe that we have the ability to make life choices that ensure that our hearts are fertile soil for the truth of the Gospel to take root in. FEEL: Develop a deep…

The “Contest” & the Power of God on Mount Carmel
1 KINGS 18:21-40 Elijah went before the people and said, “How long will you waver between two opinions? If the Lord is God, follow him; but if Baal is God, follow him.” But the people said nothing. Then Elijah said to them, “I am the only one of the Lord’s prophets left, but Baal has four hundred and fifty prophets. Get two bulls for us. Let Baal’s prophets choose one for themselves, and let them cut it into pieces and put it on the wood but…
