Biblical Hospitality | Genesis 3:1-15 & Romans 5:6-11
Some might think that hospitality is a gift, and sure, there might be some who are more pre-disposed to extending a hospitable environment moreso than others. But, my hope today is that each one today leaves here challenged today with this question: Do others feel that I welcome them as the Father welcomes me?
Overcoming Evil | Romans 12:14-21
Let’s hold onto the reminders of our humanness, our inability to save ourselves, and that it is only by God’s mercy that we are seen as Christ is seen. Recalling verse nine, “Love must be sincere,” anything else is shallow pride rooted in ungodliness. Today we will love. Let us remember then when we love, we love because God loves us and fills us with his love.
Experience Authentic Community | Romans 12:9-13
God’s calling you to show up as your real, messy, honest self—because that’s where real connection and purpose begin. Let go of chasing approval, lean into community, and live your faith in a way that’s raw, intentional, and actually life-giving.
Coming to Grips with the Real You | Romans 12:3-8
This week, we are being called to respond by owning our identity in Christ, recognizing the unique gifts God has given us, and stepping boldly into our role within His Church. True service flows not from obligation but from the overflow of God’s grace and presence in our lives, as we humbly and confidently live into the way He’s designed us.
Get the Very Best From God | Romans 12:2
Last week, we learned that God wants us to daily receive His word, mercy, direction, and presence, which prepares us to apply Romans 12 in real life. Today’s focus is on discerning God’s good, pleasing, and perfect will by resisting the patterns of the world through rest and renewing our minds with Scripture.
Give God What He Wants | Romans 12:1
This sermon invites us to fully receive what God offers: His Word, mercy, direction, and presence, based on the truth of Romans 12:1. Rather than striving to appear godly through effort alone, we’re called to a posture of humility, repentance, and worship—offering our whole selves in response to God’s mercy.
