Sermon clips from Brea churches

39s
“``See, faith is not only trusting when the miracle is obvious. Faith is trusting him when the story feels confusing, when the timing feels delayed, and when his voice feels quiet. See, the Bible says that he is to the brokenhearted. That means that if it feels like the decibels of his voice are nothing but a whisper, it might just be proof that that's when he's the closest. You only whisper when you're close.”
43s
“And what the bible is saying is God wants a deeper heart to work with so that fruit can come up and be sustained over the course of our life. So the question I have to ask myself and you have to ask yourself is, how much of your heart does God have? I encourage you to wrestle through that. How much of your heart does God have? And it's okay to be honest. He knows by the way, like you don't have to lie to yourself because you think he might not figure it out. He already knows how much of your heart he has. But if you're honest with yourself, there there may be significant portions under the surface that God is saying to us, I want you to surrender that to me so over the course of your life you can be increasingly fruitful.”

#HealingMystery
“And that happens all the time even in the stories of Jesus healing. You know, he goes to, somebody's mother. She's very sick at the point of death, and he goes in there and takes her by the hand and, rises up, and she goes and, fixes a meal because, she's been healed. A lot of people call that a miracle as if it explains it, but it's meant to be unexplained. There's a weird power at the very center of these stories, and that's the whole point, of these parables.”
69s
“Would it be safer to pretend we aren't saved by the grace of God? Should we act just like anyone else and not even pray for our enemies and love them? Why do we even hope for? It's just risky and hard to believe and continue to have faith in the resurrected Jesus. So Peter who witnesses this Jesus' earthly ministries and his crucifixion penned the words to appeal to these Christians who are losing hope and losing faith in the places of difficulty to hold on to their faith, to not turn away from the gospel message, to not turn away from what they believe in their core, and to hold on to Jesus' resurrection even if they have not witnessed it themselves in person.”
26s
“What the world will tell you, what the American dream will tell you is that the highest form of freedom is being able to do whatever you want, whenever you want, however you want. And that's why everyone is after that. That's why everyone wants money. Everyone wants success. Everyone's power because the illusion is once you get all of that, then you'll be able to do whatever you want, whenever you want, and however you want, and that's gonna be great and ultimate freedom. And I want you to know that is a 100% absolute lie”
35s
“El mandamiento más común, y no es una sugerencia, un mandamiento en toda la biblia, lo que lo cual tienes que obedecer, el más repetido de todas las la biblia es no temas o no tengas miedo. En la biblia hay algunas variaciones de esto, pero este mandamiento está 365 veces en la biblia, y no creo que sea una coincidencia, que ya he dicho, no no tengas miedo por para cada 1 de los de los días del año.”
27s
“How many of us this morning know that that cannot happen unless Jesus cries out, bind me and leave me on the cross. Loose him and let him go. Take the shackles off, take the bandages off. Even though he seems to be alive, he's still bound. Has to be loose and let go. And Jesus says, that cannot happen unless I say bind me. Nail me to the cross and then leave me there. Don't take me down. I have to actually die.”
29s
“``Devil's really attacking me. I I think that a lot of the things that our circumstances and frustrations are actually consequences of tolerated influence. That people had I had allowed people to get close to me, and what they were was contagious on me. And it led me to make some the devil had nothing to do with it. The devil's like, I'll take the credit. Thanks. But I didn't even do anything.”
53s
“Locked up in a prison cell six feet by nine, I am infinitely happier than I was in the days of my sinning when I did not know God. Day and night, I am talking with Jesus. When he was led to his execution, he sang a hymn as he was about to be killed. And when he was executed, the guards that were once terrified of him actually wept for his death. What's so incredible, this Tokichi Isha right now wears a crown of life. And right now, he has a victory with his heavenly father. And right now, he has a peace unlike any of us yet know.”
42s
“And here's the question, what if the place that you want out of is the place God wants to work in? What if the place you want out of right now is the place that God wants to work in? And some of you may say, oh, pastor Brian, are you saying God caused this mess? Are you saying he's the one that gave it to me? That that seems pretty harsh. I don't know if I wanna follow a God like that. And I would say this, God does not delight in your mess. God does not delight in your pain. But I want you to hear this closely. God refuses to waste it.”
