Lose the Judgment
August 30, 2021 11:00 - 21 minutes - 14.7 MB[[:encoded, "Have you ever been judged? I'm not talking about the legal sense of judgment, but the social sense. Has someone made a judgment about you based on their perception, their opinion, or their entitlement? In the scripture we will look at today we see that Jesus was addressing a group of religious elites. They judged everyone based on their perverted view of correctness. No one measured up and everyone was beneath them. He was inviting them to change their view and find life. He is ...

How to Give | Scott Weatherford | Aug. 8, 2021
August 11, 2021 19:44 - 27 minutes - 18.7 MB[[:encoded, "This message deals with the subject of giving: How giving reflects the heart of God, along with guiding principles from scripture on the motives and reasons for giving.

Extra Grace Required | Scott Weatherford | Aug. 1, 2021
August 04, 2021 15:04 - 19 minutes - 13.7 MB[[:encoded, "Do you know people who require a lot attention? Do they take a lot of your energy? You might say they require more grace than most people.

Tell the Truth | Scott Weatherford | July 25, 2021
July 26, 2021 14:28 - 19 minutes - 13.5 MB[[:encoded, "Why do we lie? Why are people deceitful? We need to live in God's truth and not in the lies of our culture, or of Satan.

Heart Check | Scott Weatherford | July 18, 2021
July 21, 2021 22:39 - 23 minutes - 16.1 MB[[:encoded, "Jesus fulfilled the law and he expects those of us who follow him to live all for him. That is difficult! Why? Because we have a heart problem. We want to do what we want to do when we want to do it. Our hearts are into pleasing ourselves and not pleasing God. We need a change of heart."]]
Be Bright and Salty | Scott Weatherford | July 11, 2021
July 15, 2021 23:48 - 28 minutes - 19.8 MB[[:encoded, "The greatest sermon ever preached was the Sermon on the Mount. What Jesus taught that day set the course for the whole of his message. He presented concepts and expectations no one could live up to. And He set the bar too high for us to cross. Jesus was actually setting us up to reveal our need for Him. Another truth from this message is that we are to let our light shine so much that others will be able to see Jesus in you!"]]
The Journey of Freedom | Scott Weatherford | July 4, 2021
July 06, 2021 16:23 - 11 minutes - 8.03 MB[[:encoded, "A few years ago Tara and I spent the day at our nation’s capitol. We saw many monuments to freedom. Our national heritage is tied to our love for freedom from tyranny and oppression. We have carried that passion beyond our shores to the hearts and souls of men and women of other nations. We believe that God created us to be free.\n\nSo we journey today not in cheap rhetoric but as the called out by God for the movement to redeem men and women into the freedom only Christ can prov...

The Wheat and the Weeds | Scott Weatherford | June 20, 2021
June 22, 2021 06:22 - 18 minutes - 12.4 MB[[:encoded, "One of the great deceptions of Satan is to create insecurity in the heart of believers. Satan wants you to doubt God’s love, mercy, goodness, and grace. He cannot control you but he can influence you by putting lies into your thoughts. I have never met a Christian who hasn’t struggled with doubt.\n\nToday might be your opportunity to put doubts to rest, rest assured of your relationship with Jesus. Or today could be “weed pulling” day for you, and you really come to Jesus. Jesus ...
The Unforgiving Servant | Scott Weatherford | June 13, 2021
June 17, 2021 00:08 - 21 minutes - 14.9 MB[[:encoded, "Forgiveness is not natural to us humans. However, forgiveness is our greatest need. I know I need forgiveness and I know I need to extend forgiveness, but how much and how often? Do I just keep forgiving even when I am being abused? Do I just ignore the wrongs against me and pretend everything is alright? Do I extract vengeance? Is that even ok? Forgiveness reflects the highest human virtue, and it reflects the character of God."]]
The Vineyard Owner | Scott Weatherford | June 6, 2021
June 08, 2021 21:54 - 18 minutes - 12.5 MB[[:encoded, "When people doubt the justice of the Lord it is based on their own perverted sense of what is fair and just. God himself is the standard of justice. Who are we to compare our sense of fairness with that of God?"]]

The Great Banquet | Scott Weatherford | May 30, 2021
June 03, 2021 14:35 - 18 minutes - 12.9 MB[[:encoded, "Jesus was intentional. Every event he attended had a purpose and everything he did was about the mission of seeking and saving the lost children. Jesus loved people - all people - even those who were stuck in legalism and pride.\n\nThis messages also talks about the barriers we create between ourselves and God. Jesus is inviting you to come to the banquet. Remove the barriers you have created and come to Jesus."]]
The Mustard Seed | Scott Weatherford | May 23, 2021
May 25, 2021 18:49 - 18 minutes - 12.7 MB[[:encoded, "Why would Jesus give an illustration about a man planting a weed in his garden, and how could this story be applied to our lives?\nWe have to remember that everything Jesus did and taught was intentional. This story is one such example.\n\nConsider the setting of the story, the crowd that was listening, and the events preceding the parable. That’s three considerations that will help us find the truth Jesus is teaching to us.\n\nJesus was using mustard seeds an as example to help ...

Jesus on Racism | Scott Weatherford | May 2, 2021
May 03, 2021 19:03 - 25 minutes - 17.2 MB[[:encoded, "According to God there is but one race, the human race. God created various ethnic groups. Although we are the same as humans we are different by culture, climate, and custom. God loves variety. He loves all the peoples of the world. And yet, there is the very real problem of racism in our world. Join pastor Scott as he confronts the sin of racism and forms a biblical and Christian response."]]
In It for the Long Haul | Scott Weatherford | April 25, 2021
April 28, 2021 13:58 - 21 minutes - 14.6 MB[[:encoded, "Love is a decision based on commitment. For some of you that’s a big revelation. We have been sold a bill of goods believing that love is a feeling. We fall in love like one might fall into a open man hole, a tar pit, or a trap. We are convinced that love is starlight, soft music, sweet nothing's, flowers, candles, and the like. Love is a many splendid thing! Love does cause powerful feelings but we confuse the commitment of love to the feelings of love. We even say....We've lost...

King Jesus | Scott Weatherford | April 4, 2021
April 06, 2021 02:56 - 19 minutes - 13.4 MB[[:encoded, "Jesus made the grand entrance from a borrowed tomb, thus declaring who he was before all time and for all eternity. He is King Jesus.

March 16, 2021 16:35 - 20 minutes - 14 MB[[:encoded, "A bad heart leads to a bad life. Proverbs tells us to \"guard your heart above all else, for it is the source of life.\" Psalms asks God to \"test me, Lord, and try me; exam in my heart and mind.\" This message is about having a pure heart. But who can actually have one? We can't accomplish this in our own power, but Jesus can accomplish this in us!"]]

In this fourth beatitude He begins the renewal of our minds."]]

March 02, 2021 21:57 - 30 minutes - 20.7 MB[[:encoded, "Life is not about our circumstances, but about our reaction to our circumstances.

February 02, 2021 15:52 - 21 minutes - 14.5 MB[[:encoded, "There is nothing more powerful or loving than praying for someone. There is nothing that can create more security than having someone pray for you. Prayer is an amazing tool to grow relationships. Yet there is someone more powerful and influential praying for me.

January 18, 2021 15:56 - 16 minutes - 11.1 MB[[:encoded, "The holiness of God is more than our minds can comprehend. God's requirement of holiness is too difficult for us.

January 11, 2021 21:13 - 24 minutes - 17.1 MB[[:encoded, "Today we see Jesus as Healer. He is the complete Healer. Jesus invites you to come to Him. Come for rest. Come find what you need. Come to be made whole."]]

Love | Sean Sivils | 12.06.2020
December 08, 2020 15:40 - 24 minutes - 16.8 MB[[:encoded, "Before He created anything God WAS and IS love. God loves us even when we don't love Him back.
