Exodus 13 & 14 describe the beginning of a really long road trip and the most difficult predicament Israel had ever faced up to this point in their history. But what makes their situation unique is that God's response to it will become one of the most talked about, most celebrated events in Israel's history. And there are lessons in it that relate to us too!

Memorizing and meditating on God’s word is important, but to hide his word in our hearts we must move past just cognitive memorization, it has to move from mind, to heart.

WITH

January 01, 2024 21:13 - 30 minutes - 41.3 MB

Throughout our Christmas series, we’ve been talking about the joy of Christmas: that through Jesus, God has come to be WITH us! We’ve looked at the stories of a few people around the time of Jesus’ birth encountering Jesus and being transformed by his presence. As we bring this “WITH” series to a close, we want to focus even more on Jesus’ presence with us today. To do that, we’re going to jump from the opening chapters of Luke’s narrative to his last chapter. We will follow the story of two ...

Less Is More

December 03, 2023 17:08 - 34 minutes - 47.7 MB

It’s OK to have money… as long as MONEY doesn’t have us. And that’s where the problem usually arises. We go looking to money to meet our needs, to cover up our wounds, and to satisfy. But the important, and sometimes difficult lesson to learn about life and money and satisfaction is this… true, lasting satisfaction only comes to us through Jesus! That’s why this series isn’t about you having LESS money. The answer is MORE of JESUS… That’s what we want for our lives. That’s what we want fo...

In Acts 17 the Apostle Paul arrived in a city where people weren’t just far from God – they were completely confused about who God is and what He is like. But instead of getting angry or shrugging his shoulders and walking away, he applied his perspective as a follower of Jesus to introduce them to “an unknown God” who had the power to give them eternal life.

Life has a way pulling us down and making us feel forgotten by God. In Genesis 37 we meet a young man named Joseph who was rejected by his brothers, sold into slavery, and put into prison. But even as his life continued to spiral downward, he began to learn that the Lord was with him, and would eventually use it all for his good and the good of his family.

God's plan almost never looks like our plan. There's too much suffering, too many loose ends. But if we trust him, and can see our lives as part of a larger story, we'll see he's always with us, and he's weaving a beautiful tapestry with our lives.

Family Sunday

July 30, 2023 13:57 - 26 minutes - 37 MB

The true gospel is that our sins are forgiven through faith in Jesus Christ alone. False gospels add something, but nothing we do can make us right with God. Only faith in Jesus, trusting what He has done for us to reconcile us to God, makes us acceptable to God. True faith expresses itself in obedience to Jesus and being guided by the Holy Spirit, but the good deeds we do and the sin that we struggle with doesn’t change our standing with God. It’s our faith in Jesus alone.

It’s easy for us to allow the busyness and stress of life to define our perspective. The problem with that approach is that it tends to factor God out of the details and leaves us feeling alone and empty. In 1 Kings 19 we meet a man named Elijah who lost his perspective and needed God’s help to readjust his focus so he could see God at work in the highs and lows of life.

We live in a world that is obsessed with telling us to make a name for ourselves. However, the problem in making a name for ourselves is that it naturally leads us away from God. The biblical account of the Tower of Babel in Genesis 10 and 11 speak to this very issue and teaches us about God’s patience, love and grace towards us – even when we are tempted to make a name for ourselves apart from him.

Living the life we’re called to as a follower of Jesus is rarely easy. It requires choosing to trust Him enough to obediently follow His commands and His calls. In the story of Gideon we see what can happen when we take God at His word, and we also see why it’s so important that we remain connected with God.

Where Did the Talking Serpent Come From?

June 11, 2023 15:41 - 33 minutes - 38.7 MB

Have you ever read Genesis 3 and wondered why there is a talking serpent and where he came from? It’s easy to read a story like this and assume its allegory or even a fairy tale, but the truth is that God has given us this account in His Word to help us understand how sin entered into our world and why we have a need for a savior in Jesus.

Why So Quiet?

June 05, 2023 19:17 - 37 minutes - 51 MB

So many of us are desperate to hear from God. We want more of God, especially when we go through "wilderness" times of life. The good news is that God wants to have a close, personal relationship with you and me. He wants to provide the comfort and wisdom we long for. The question is, are we ready and willing to listen?

Being Intentional With Our Time

May 22, 2023 17:53 - 32 minutes - 58.4 MB

In Acts 14, we see Paul and Barnabas finish up a long, fruitful missionary journey. But instead of going home, we are told they went back to Antioch and "spent lots of time with the believers there." What can we learn from this passage, and how can we use it to help us use our time to intentionally invest in others?

Dead to Sin. Alive in Christ.

April 30, 2023 15:38 - 14 minutes - 20.5 MB

The bad news is that sin means we've all missed the mark. Death is what we deserve. The good news is that God sent Jesus as a remedy, a solution to the problem of sin and death. His death and life means that God offers something better. Trusting Jesus with every part of our lives means that death is defeated and that we are alive in Jesus Christ.

There Is No Them ... Only Us

April 24, 2023 13:01 - 32 minutes - 45.1 MB

There is an “us vs. them” mentality that has been tearing our world apart for centuries. It allows petty things like politics, economic, social status, age, and even skin color to draw hurtful boundaries between people. In Acts 11 we find an anonymous group of believers who show us what happens when the Church leads the way in shattering the us vs. them barrier.

Back to Life

In Acts 9 we meet a man named Saul. He was violently opposed to the idea of the resurrection of Jesus and the thought that He could be God’s promised Messiah. All that changed when he met the resurrected Jesus face to face. Just like Saul, Jesus came to rescue us from our sins and to give us a new life that can only be found in Him.

A Better Way to Live

April 02, 2023 15:58 - 36 minutes - 49.7 MB

God wants everyone to put their faith in Jesus and receive the gift of the Holy Spirit, but it’s also God’s desire that you and I will be filled and empowered and directed by the Holy Spirit each day. There's no better way to live.

When Victory Looks Like Defeat

March 27, 2023 14:15 - 30 minutes - 41.3 MB

There are times in our lives when we feel defeated. Often, these can be the times where God can work most powerfully. In Acts 8, what we see in the first church was that its growth really took off when persecution struck and the people were forced to scatter. What looks like defeat is often God's victory in disguise!

Bold Moves, Bold Prayers

As we mature, the things we ask for change. it's true in our lives, and it should be true in our prayers as well. This week, we see the believers in the first church pray for boldness after narrowly escaping the authorities. What could God do in our lives and in our church if we all were willing to pray bold prayers?

Lead Pastor Paul Mumaw continues Week 3 of our SENT Series. In Acts 3 we Jesus’ followers learn to tap into the greatest power they have at their disposal.

The Pathway

January 15, 2023 17:13 - 38 minutes - 32.6 MB

Last week, we talked about disciple making, and how that is our call for each of us individually. But our faith was never meant to be lived alone. Even from the very beginning of Christianity, there was a body of believers, a church, for people to be connected to. At Genesis, we’ve developed a pathway for everyone to join and find a way to connect in community here, to encounter Jesus, follow Jesus, and multiply a few.

Mission

January 01, 2023 15:02 - 33 minutes - 63.3 MB

The mission of Genesis Church is Helping People Find Their Way Back to God. This comes out of 2 Cor 5:20 when we read “we are Christ’s ambassadors; …We speak for Christ when we plead, “Come back to God!” (NLT) Everything we do at Genesis Church – from kids to students to adults - is filtered through the mission of “helping people find their way back to God.” What does this mission mean for each person at Genesis? How do we make the church’s mission our personal mission?
