Faith on Fire Week 11: One More Thing

This is not the actual service from October 28th. We had equipment failure and lost the service. But the sermon that day was Pastor Grice going back over some recent sermons he preached and adding some details that he  originally left out of them due to time constraints. He came back into the Chapel and re-preached the final point he made that day, because he felt strongly that God was trying to teach him to look at the blessings in his life differently.

We pray this helps you in your life too!

Faith on Fire Week 10: What You Know

[NOTE: There was a problem with the audio of this sermon. We boosted the quality as best we could. We apologize for the poor audio quality]

As we move on in our Christian life, we are always looking for new information. Is there a better in-depth explanation of this bible passage, is there a new way of looking at our relationship with God. What is the latest and greatest teaching available. Are we sure we want all of that? Do you know that you will be judged by what you know? A sobering sermon for those who surf the web looking for “more better”  BIBLE REFERENCES: Luke 12:47-48; Matthew 25:28-29; Acts 10:1-2; Luke 7:1-10; Acts 10:3-8, 22; Psalm 19:1-4, 6, 8, 11-14.

Faith on Fire Week 9: Deception

No one sets out to get deceived. But once the Devil manages to deceive someone, he is able to get them to do anything. How do we end up deceived? What can we do to prevent it?

Faith on Fire Week 8: Wish Fulfillment

When you read the Acts of the apostles found in the bible, do you find yourself asking: “Why can’t I have a life like that?” They have angels guiding them where to go, when they get there, strangers are eager to talk to them about Jesus. Miracles are common. Why is none of that true today? It might not be what you think. It might be that we are longing for Wish Fulfillment instead of what we should be focused on.

Faith on Fire Week 7: The Sorcerer’s Heart of Stone

Do you ever feel like your Christian walk has stalled? Why? What’s the one thing that keeps most Christians from experiencing the fullness of the Christian life? What is the one thing that keeps the Holy Spirit from being able to work in our lives? That’s what we look at in today’s lesson from the Book of Acts.

Faith on Fire Week 6: Mo’ People Mo’ Problems

The First Church continues to grow. But, as we saw last week, problems begin to emerge. Complaints arise about how some are being treated unfairly. The Apostles solution was simple. They chose seven men to oversee the people in the church. And the qualifications they used to choose the new leaders is a lesson for all of us.

Faith on Fire Week 5: Lyin’ and Dyin’

We tackle an unusual story from the book of Acts: Someone lies to Peter and is struck dead by God. What in the world is going on? What happened to Grace? What happened to Love? Why was lying to an Apostle a capital offense? And what is the Bible trying to teach us through all of this? As always… the answer might surprise you…BIBLE REFERENCES: Genesis 1:26-27; Genesis 1:1-2; John 1:1-3, 14; 1 Corinthians 15:33; 2 Corinthians 6:14; Acts 4:32, 36-37; Matthew 16:25-27; Matthew 6:19_24; Galatians 6:7-8; Acts 5:1-10; 2 Chronicles 16:9.

Faith on Fire Week 4: Bold Truth

Have you ever done everything right, and still ended up in trouble? Imagine how Peter feels… He’s done nothing except heal a man, and he finds himself being called before the most dangerous court in Jerusalem. But the Sanhedrin did not know what they were getting when they asked a simple fisherman to stand and explain himself. What can we learn from Peter’s bold response?

Faith on Fire Week 3: From Lame to Leaping

This week we look at the first miracle performed in the Christian Church. Does the way this miracle was performed teach us anything about praying for miracles in our lives? What can we learn from the miracle near the “Beautiful Gate?” BIBLE REFERENCES: Acts 3:1-6; John 9:1-8;
2 Corinthians 12:7-10; Acts 3:7-8. Philippians 4:12-13.

Faith on Fire Week 2: The Truth About Tongues

Pentecost – one of the most amazing, and most confusing, moments in the Christian Church. This is the first time the idea of “Speaking in Tongues” was seen by the church. What is the deal with that? Was this a one time thing? Is it a pattern for how the Holy Spirit enters our lives? We dive into the text of Acts Chapter 2, and the answers we come away with might surprise you.
