As summer winds to an end and the new academic year looms,
most of us are about to begin a new season of busyness and stress. In the upcoming whirlwind of school, work, and life, it will be all too easy to get distracted from God…which will only make us feel even busier and more stressed. So how can we make sure we stay connected to God through all the things this new season will throw our way? In today’s sermon, we’ll find out.

Sadly, the church has often created excessive guilt and shame about sex. So we may be tempted to roll our eyes at the suggestion that lust is a problem, much less a ‘sin.’ Our culture certainly isn’t worried about it. And yet, Jesus felt the need to give us a surprisingly strong warning against lust within his most famous sermon. So this week in worship, we’re looking at what Jesus has to say about lust, why it still matters today, and how it helps us. Don’t miss this final installment in our series on the 7 Deadly Sins.

Sometimes in our ‘more is better’ culture, we forget that there can be too much of a good thing. Sometimes when we binge on the things we enjoy, we’re avoiding a deeper issue we need to confront. In today’s sermon, we’ll consider the spiritual implications of Gluttony as we continue our series on the 7 Deadly Sins.

If you ever worry about money, you’re not alone. A recent survey found that 73% of Americans rank their finances as their top source of stress. Jesus knows this is something we struggle with, so he gives us guidance about how to have a healthy relationship with money that can alleviate much of our stress. In today’s sermon, as we continue our series on the 7 Deadly Sins, we’ll explore how Jesus redefines ‘greed,’ what it means for us, and why it’s actually good news.

We often feel exhausted by life and all of its demands and responsibilities. We sometimes feel overwhelmed by all the problems around us in this broken world. So rest is vital. But as we restfully unplug from email or Zoom or news or social media or other parts of our lives, we can accidentally unplug from God as well. In today’s sermon, we’re talking about how that happens, why we need to avoid it, what to do about it. Don’t miss this exploration of ‘Sloth’ as we continue our series on the 7 Deadly Sins.

We’ve all done something we regret out of anger, so we know how destructive anger can be. But anger’s not always bad. In some cases, anger is appropriate and can be harnessed for good. So in today’s sermon, we’re learning from the example of Jesus about how to do anger well.

How many times each day do we wish we had what someone else has? Whether it’s their good looks, or their money, or their talent, or their professional success, or just their annoying ability to look amazing on Instagram, our lives are filled with envy. And not only does envy often make us feel bad, it can lead us to do bad. So we need to deal with our envy problem. In today’s sermon, we’re talking about how to do that, as we continue our series on the 7 Deadly Sins.

Religious people often condemn ‘sinners.’ But Jesus hung out with ‘sinners.’ He was drawn to them and they were drawn to him. In today’s sermon, we’ll discover why, what it means about God, and the difference it makes for our own relationship with God as we begin a new series on the 7 Deadly Sins.

Sometimes we face seasons of life when we feel lonely, out of place, or uncertain where we belong. Those seasons can be rough because we have a God-given desire to find belonging. In today’s sermon, we’ll consider the powerful role of church community in shaping our identity, connecting us deeply with others, and giving us the belonging we’re looking for.

Virtually all Christians would say that God is very loving. But for many of us, the God we were introduced to in church really wasn’t as loving as advertised. For some of us, that’s the reason we stopped doing church. For others, it’s the reason we’ve often struggled with faith. So in today’s sermon, we’ll take up the important question, ‘How loving is God?’ Join us! Because the answer is simply too good to miss.
