In the Great House of Prayer we are invited into another room. The Office is today’s stop. The focal point of this room is the desk. We try to spend too much time in the executive seat of this desk but that’s not our chair. Listen as Pastor Derrick shares the importance of this room.

When we look at one element of a recipe, like flour, it’s hard to imagine how the end will turn out. The same is often true of our struggles. We go through a difficult situation and get so caught up in the pain of the moment that we just can’t see the final product. Listen as Pastor Derrick shares the recipe for getting through trials in life.
In God’s House of Prayer there are many rooms, but today we focus not on a room. Instead our eyes and attention are drawn to a chair in the middle of a quiet room. The chair is where we spend our time together today. Listen as Pastor Derrick helps find this chair in your life.
When we say “It is enough” we can mean two different things. We can mean that we’ve had it and we’re throwing in the towel. Or we can use this phrase with the understanding that even though we don’t have everything, we still have enough. This week we focus on how enough is all we need.
In God’s Great House of Prayer there are many rooms. Each room has a specific significance. This week we find ourselves looking at the least recognized part of a house but inarguably the most important.
There are passages in the bible that are so confusing or even depressing that we’d like to just fast forward through them. But some of these passages have the ability to teach us great things! This week listen as Pastor Derrick shares the importance of lamenting through the depressing and challenging moments in life.
As we journey through the season of Lent, we’ll be looking at the Lord’s Prayer. Over the next serveral Wednesdays we’ll take small phrases from the Lord’s Prayer comparing them to rooms in God’s House. This week we enter through the front door, at the invitation of God, and find our place in God’s living room. Gaze with me at the painting above the fireplace. Can you see it?
As we focus on the life of Job in this new sermon series, we see the power of God over our struggles and pains. This week we learn about surrender. Even though the world sees surrender as a weakness, Job understands that in surrender he finds true strength.
It’s easy to make excuses. We do it all the time. Even some of the biggest names in the bible made excuses. Listen this week as Pastor Derrick shares why there’s no need for excuses.
As we conclude this sermon series on things that happen In Christ, we focus on how we are now being forged in Christ. Being forged is a painful process but it’s necessary in order for us to carry the image of Christ where we live, work and play. Listen this week as Pastor Derrick shows us how we can be forged in Christ for a new purpose.
