White Castles And Jesus

This past week at Element Church we continued our sermon series called “True Love” by asking the question, “ What does this different love deliver? ” We said that “A different love is only desirable if it delivers what you need .” The love of God as described in the Bible is different, but what make…

I’m Engaged

No, I’m not trying to get my own television show called “Sister Pastor Wives”. I’m NOT talking about that kind of engagement. I am “engaged” in a great work! That’s part of what we talked about at Element Church this past week as we continued our look at Nehemiah in our series called “Prepare”. This…

I Hate Where I Live

Nehemiah wasn’t where he wanted to be but he was faithful where God allowed him to be. [Tweet “Nehemiah wasn’t where he wanted to be but he was faithful where God allowed him to be. “] That’s part of what we talked about on Sunday at Element Church as we kicked off a new sermon series called “Prepar…

I Don’t Trust Jesus

That’s essentially what I’m saying when I only trust what I see instead of trusting what Jesus said ! That was the big idea this past Sunday at Element Church as we continued our sermon series “Jesus is NOT the reason for the season”. Trusting Jesus as provider is not based on what I see it’s based…

I Don’t Believe Jesus

That’s basically what we are saying if we say, “That’s impossible,” when it comes to a spiritual issue in our lives. We either believe that the power of Jesus can do anything or we don’t. On Sunday at Element Church we finished up our sermon series on marriage and relationships called “Happily Never…

Get Off The Ledge

On Sunday at Element Church we continued our marriage series called “Happily Never Happened.” I preached from Proverbs 5 and asked the question, “How do we pursue purity?” In the message we said: Pleasure is not the opposite of purity but the outcome of pursuing it! If we would let that sink deep in…

Is Christ Set Apart In Your Heart?

On Sunday here at Element Church we started a new sermon series on marriage and relationships called “Happily Never Happened!” Regardless of what studies you look at, across the board it is shown that about 50% of all marriages, 60% of second marriages and 73% of third marriages end in divorce. Even…

Where is your giving rooted?

On Sunday, we continued our vision series called “Vacation” by talking about giving! Generosity and vision go hand in hand. I’ve never seen a vision fulfilled without generous people committed to it, and the same is true with the church. [Tweet “Generosity and vision go hand in hand. I’ve never seen…

Jesus has a horrible reputation

In some ways that is true in our culture today isn’t it? Maybe it’s not Jesus that has a bad reputation though, as much as it is his church. On Sunday here at Element Church we continued our sermon series called “Vacation: Driven toward a destination.” This is a series all about vision. We are answe…
