Lifepointe Church Sermons

Joy in our lives brings us hope, it brings us strength, and it brings laughter. As a child, laughter and joy come naturally. It's seriousness that has to be taught! We need to learn to laugh at ourselves, at the devil, and at the future!

In this series opener, Pastor Jeff looks at 3 ways to inject laughter into your life because "a merry heart does good, like medicine!"

If we seek to please God instead of trying to please people, we find true freedom and true security. "The fear of man brings a snare, But whoever trusts in the Lord shall be safe." - Proverbs 29:25

We are told all of the time how meaningless and small man is compared to the universe. What if exactly the opposite were true and the entire universe was meaningless without us! Understand, that you are created in the image of God, and you...are...significant.

From babies to grown adults, we long to be accepted. In Christ, we ARE accepted. Just as we are...and that's pretty great news.

Who or what is your source? Where do you find your identity? If it is in Christ, then your identity is unmovable, unshakable, and unchangeable!

In this series finale, Pastor Jeff talks about how we are saved to serve, then serve to save! Each of us have a calling on our lives and that calling is the way we will find a life of fulfillment. Doing something that makes a difference with people who want to make a difference!

God has promised to redeem and restore us to His original intent and design for our lives. You were created on purpose, for a purpose! In fact, God calls you His masterpiece. Now that's pretty cool.

God's free gift of salvation is just that: free! But He also wants us to live in freedom after we have been saved. God has divine connections for each and every one of us. We are not meant to do life alone. Get connected!

We find four promises from God in Exodus 6, represented by four cups of wine in the Passover meal. The first is "The Cup of Sanctification" which is God's promise of salvation. This is the first step in our spiritual journey. A journey with a destination of purpose and fulfillment: the kind only the Creator of the Universe can provide.

We tend to see blood as something gross and icky but ancient cultures saw it differently. They saw blood as something sacred and precious and there is no blood more sacred or precious than the blood of Jesus. Blood that has the power to redeem, cleanse, reconcile, embolden, and overcome!

In this series opener, we look to the first Passover and the promises that God made to the Israelites. The same promises He has for us today.

Do we live like a slave to God or like a son or daughter? Like an employee or an heir? God loves us as His very own. We are family!

In week two of "Galatians", we look at 5 truths about grace: Grace is a free gift. Grace is received by faith. Grace is available to everyone. Grace only comes through Christ. Grace is extended throughout eternity!

Which tree are we drawn towards? The "Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil" or "The Tree of Life"? One focuses on what we have done. The other focuses on what Jesus has done. Choose life! Choose freedom!

God likes it when we worship Him loud and proud! Pastor Jeff looks at 7 different Hebrew words that are all translated praise. Jesus Himself said that if we don't praise, even the rocks will cry out!

We are made for worship. By design! God made us from Him. He made us to be like Him. He made us to express love to Him.

What does God really want? You! He wants a relationship. Thank Him, offer yourself to Him, and include Him in your daily life!

God's perfect love casts out all fear. If we realize this love He has for us, we can tell fear to "Shut Up and Go Away"! There is nothing....nothing in this world that can separate us from the love God has for us.

"There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear..." God's love and fear cannot occupy the same space. Love wins every time.
