Sermon clips from Bay St. Louis churches

50s
“That's not the opiate of the people. That is the challenge to be transformed by faith. You know, the cross are a test our destiny. Our hearts are restless until they rest in God. That's a very famous line from Saint Augustine. I've probably said it 50 times in the twelve years I've been here. Our hearts are restless until they rest in you, oh lord. Christ did not merely save us from sin. He saved us for glory. Right? We weren't just saved from, we were saved for.”

#LiveWithEternalPurpose
“If you're a follower of Christ and you understand this resurrection truth, this union that we have with him, can can I give you some some comfort here? No matter what happens in your life, no matter what happens today, no matter what happens for the rest of your earthly life, there are better days ahead because you will be in the presence of the Lord. So whatever the Lord is calling you to do, do it with reckless abandon. Whatever the Lord is calling you to do for his glory, live it out with great energy and strength, making an eternal impact with these few short years that we have walking this earth because he has a purpose and a plan for you and your eternal life started when you put your faith and trust in Christ.”

#GospelTransformsHearts
“You know what it is gonna is the power of God into salvation? The gospel itself. The death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. And so that is why we as as as much as I think that we ought to do everything well. Our music should be good. Our building should be good. Everything that we do should be well, but we cannot rely on any of those things because none of those things can transform a heart. The only thing that has the power of God to transform a heart is the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ. And the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ begins with us recognizing that we are sinners, that we need this salvation, that we need this salvation.”
34s
“Gods sovereign will, we understand. Gods revealed will, we obey. We obey it and we can disobey it. What Gods revealed will. Let me give you an example. First Thessalonians chapter four, verse three, for this is the will of God. By the way, all scripture, it is the revealed will of God. Whether the scripture says this is the will of God, its all the will of God. Its revealed through Gods word. This is the will of God. Paul writes to the church at Thessalonica. Heres what he says. What is the will of God? Your sanctification.”
44s
“Anticipating it and participating in it. I hope when I get close to my death, if I saw death coming thirty minutes away, I would be sorry for what I had failed to become. Not that I didn't learn how to swim. What have I become in life? Where has my life been sterile or unfruitful? It is the sad fact that we humans far too often approach life and death as just about this weekend with a very superficial limited understanding of where we are and where we're going. The ascension of the Lord confronts us with a great question of our existence.”
36s
“Far too many people think that's it. That's good enough. Right? And that is not it. And that is not good enough. God expects us to be saints, the saints that we were created to be. Jesus, in fact, says be perfect as your heavenly father is perfect. And our Christian life and discipleship, our anticipation of the ascension is not about earning God's love, rather it is about living in God, being changed by his grace, and aware of the goal and the end of our life, and aware of the shortness of life.”
37s
“My prayer for you today is that you think about these things as we celebrate the ascension that this is how your brain works, that you live in the culture of the church that looks forward to eternal life, that participates in a sense in eternal life even now. The church is constantly pointing us to the end and to the present. Jesus Christ has ascended not merely as God but as man. Heaven is our destiny, our hope, our goal. It's not a fantasy.”
43s
#InvitationToResurrection
“Do you hear the invitation there? Do you hear the invitation that Christ is offering to you right here, right now? That if you put your faith and trust in Christ, then you can have that resurrection life that he's talking about. You can experience that eternal life. You know, we often talk about heaven, and we talk about the streets of gold. We talk about the pearly gates. We talk about the crystal crystal sea, we talk about all the imagery of heaven, but do you know what the most incredible part of heaven actually is? Being united with Christ for all eternity.”
48s
#OnlyGospelSaves
“So many people look to religion or look to self help or look to turning over a new leaf or look to some sort of religious out outworkings in their life thinking that is what is going to save them. I am here today to make no bones about it. Nothing, nothing, nothing has the power of God under salvation except for the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ. A savior who came, lived, died, and rose again. And it's for anyone who believes, for all who believe. It says to the Jew first and also to the Greek that have been the religious people, the non religious people, the high minded people, and the lowly people, and everyone in between.”
36s
“We understand Gods sovereign will. I could talk for days about that. We obey Gods revealed will, Gods word. Now under the canopy of those umbrellas, we then enter a discovery process through a template of desire, design. Three, definition, definition. What do you mean by that, pastor? What do other people see in your life? What does your mom and dad, godly people, what does your small group leader, people around you, men that youre walking with, ladies that youre walking with, what do they see in your life?”
