Sermon clips from Chambersburg churches

86s
“But if there's one thing we could take from that story, it would be this. Do our children and our grandchildren, do our neighbors, our family members, our coworkers, do they know that god means more to us than any person or anything that might be a good takeaway for us in 2026. God's solution to our perplexity is never a detailed explanation. We still shake our heads and say, we don't know. But God breathes his peace our perplexity. reminds us of God's purpose, presence, provision. The peace that we learn about among the fruit of the spirit is a deep holistic well-being, a restfulness of our soul despite our circumstances.”
67s
“Here in church, love your neighbor as yourself. That's an important one that I feel like the Lord really wanted every single one of us to understand, in in this room is is that even in church, we have imperfect people, don't we? Do not look at the neighbor. Don't don't you dare. Even in church, have imperfect people. But God asks us to love our neighbor as ourselves. Everybody has a crazy uncle. I get it. So does churches. Love your neighbor as yourself. And and one thing I'm always reminded of too is that, I I love I love, I love the unity of church, but this isn't just where we need to be. Right? We are going out. We are asked to go out. And and I pray in this last note, I want us to just I really want us to understand this one. And when we go into worship, this is this is the driving force, is that outside of church, don't be the one that causes someone else to turn from Christ.”
71s
“But what I what I wanna start with to notice here is it's interesting to me, and this is very helpful to notice. The sisters bring to Jesus the situation. They don't bring their will, their plan, their mind. This is what you need to do, genie in the bottle. Look at look at there again. Verse three. Lord, behold, he whom you love is sick. They brought the situation. That is always the first step in finding the lord's will and the lord's mind is we bring the situation, not not just our solution. And I I it seems like I've said that a lot here through the gospel of John that it's so easy for us to say, okay, Lord. Here's this here's the situation. I just need a thousand dollars to fix this fix this, and I'll be all set. And and the lord's like, that's kind of a petty way of thinking about this. I've I've got some different things in mind. And so let let us start by being open to what the lord wants to do, but they can only even bring this situation to the lord because they know that he loves them and he loves Lazarus.”

“``What do you need to do to align your life with going all in for Jesus? I'm not just talking to parents here. For every one of us, the greatest thing you could ever do is live your life fully devoted to God. All in. In what way are you holding back? How are you giving your best to some things else beside your devotion to God? And how do you need to change to give your best to God? Because when you give your best to God, everything else will fall into place, or you will discover that it never mattered.”
83s
“What is the kingdom of heaven like? It's the kingdom being revealed to someone in search of something precious. When they find the kingdom of heaven, they do everything they can to hold on to the treasure. Whether you're looking for it or not, the kingdom of heaven is invaluable. Once you know it's worth, you wanna be a part of it, and you want it to be a part of you. This isn't a parable about the monetary value of the kingdom of heaven. It's about the eternal value of being a part of the kingdom of God. I want you to think for a moment about how you came to know Jesus. What is your story? Did you discover the kingdom of heaven on purpose or unintentionally? How has it changed you? What makes you want to continue experiencing the kingdom?”
76s
“Do you understand that seven out of 10 unchurched people have friends that go to church but never once have been invited to the house of God, never once have been told how they can be saved, and never once have even been simply offered prayer. of Christians have never led one soul to Jesus Christ. But we all believe Jesus is coming back. But what are we doing about the lost around us? I know you're gonna get quiet only on this part. What are you doing to reach the lost? I'm gonna ask you another question. How many of you believe Jesus is coming soon? Yes. Yes. Come on. Half of us? I'm gonna ask it again. How many believe Jesus is coming soon? What are you doing on a daily basis to to show that you believe that he's coming soon? When's the last time you invited someone into the house of God? When's the last time you tried to lead someone to Jesus Christ? When's the last time you even offered to pray for someone?”
70s
“Loving of another loving one another will cause you to lose your life. It'll cause things in your life to die. But Jesus' promise is as you lose your life, you will actually find it. And in that, he has life for you, a life abundant. And so this is my heart. This is my prayer for us, Mission Hill. May we be reminded of Jesus' command and John's final words to the church. Little children, love one another as Jesus loved us. Mission Hill, may we be a church that loves one another, a church that loves God, loves people, and makes disciples. And in that simplicity, may our obedience to Jesus lead to the redemption of others, to the resurrected life for for others, and may it ultimately glorify God. May Jesus get the glory and the honor and the beauty that that that he deserves.”
77s
“First, there are all types of gospels in the world. You know, there's there are gospels of works that you have to work your way to God. There are gospels of universalism that everybody goes to the same place in the same way. There are many ways to God people. There's also politics right and left. There's all these messages. What we have to do is to be clear about our message. Be clear. We need to know the message. If you don't know the message, shame on you. Shame on you. You need to know the clear message of the gospel. That Jesus is born, he was raised, he died on the cross, he was resurrected from the dead, and he still lives. Those simple outlines of the gospel. We pray that the lord will open the eyes of the people in which we share, and god will do that. God will do that.”
81s
“Dads these are bonus for you. The one is this, as we raise our kids, dads, you have to have a relationship with your kids. It doesn't just happen on its own. Just because you're their parent doesn't mean that you have a good relationship with them, and it changes as they go about in life. Those early ages, that their early stages when they're babies or whatever, that's just not mommy time. That's not just mommy time. Those early years aren't just for the mothers. You're like, yeah, but I love my kids. Well, that's cool, but love does not equal influence in their lives. Many parents love their kids but have very very little influence in their lives. Relationships starts at a very young age, and we should, as dads, do something in your child's day every single day. Do something in their world. Do something with them every single day. It's not their job to enter your world, but it's your job to enter in to theirs. Amen? Number two, this is a bonus. Parenting has to be done humbly. It's about humility.”
60s
“However, in a world as broken and fragmented as ours is, a simple act of kindness, a welcome to the stranger, a little genuine hospitality actually can be a downright dangerous. For in a world where people are attacked in their homes, answering a doorbell can be an act of faithfulness, offering directions to a lost stranger perhaps can evoke second thoughts or simply helping a stranger at all may raise hesitation in us. In such a world then, by all appearances, it has lost a sense of hospitality. Our gospel today today provides us with this simple suggestion, where to begin again. We can and must show hospitality through those little but deeply merciful acts of kindness and grace that actually do reveal to others the reign of Christ in this world.”
