Summertime "Time To Put Doubt Out" Part 1

Doubt is an enemy to faith. What do you want to believe God for? Are you desperate for His touch upon your life? Pastor John talks about three things we can do to position ourselves to receive the miracles of God, illustrated by Jairus and the woman who bled for 12 years. Battles and blessings are part of this life. You have to be willing to go through the battle to reach the blessing on the other side. In order to do this, you have to put doubt out.

Summertime "Time For Directions" Part 1

If you want to get to the right destination, you have to get the right directions. The most important kairos moment of your life could be the one when you surrender to God the one area of your life that you are trying to maintain control of, when you stop and ask Him for directions. Pastor John shares from Proverbs 3:5-6 and takes a glimpse into the life of Solomon, the wisest man who ever lived. David's son started well, but didn't end well. Put your trust in Yahweh and you can avoid making the same mistake.

Greenhouse "Faith Grows Through Dying" Part 1

In order for a seed to become a plant, it must first "die". It is true for the Christ-follower as well and it begins with humility. Pastor John walks through Jesus' invitation for those who want to follow Him: He must deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. Our slogan then becomes "Come and die". Learn four things that we must learn to die to in order to experience the freedom and abundant life that Christ willingly died for. Will you accept the invitation?

Greenhouse "Faith Grows Through Abiding" Part 1

If we want to be fruit bearers, we must learn how to remain connected to Jesus. In this message, Pastor John digs into the original language of John 15, one of the most well-known yet often misappopriated Scriptures in the Bible to unwrap what it means to abide. Learn how a vineyard owner takes care of his/her grapes to produce much fruit and how Jesus works with us in the same way. Our faith grows when we abide and trust Jesus.

Greenhouse "Faith Grows Through Generosity" Part 1

There's always a 41st day and there will be one for Living Hope Church.

He talks about generosity, which is less about money and more about your heart. It's all about trusting God for your tomorrows with what you give today. Are you going to sow sparingly or generously?
