Sermon clips from El Mirage churches

60s
“The responsibility might be different. The number of people might be different, but the requirement is the same. As a church, I ask you, we need to be available. We need to be available. We need to pay attention. We need to remain faithful. And probably most importantly, we can accomplish the ministry you've received let from the Lord. So I ask you, where's God sending you? As you listen, as you've learned, listen to the weeks through this series, where is God sending you? And the question maybe, you know, not whether your assignment looks impressive to someone else or the question isn't really whether, you know, this thing or that thing. The question is whether you will be faithful to the assignment God is putting in your life.”

“Divorce is never treated casually in scripture because marriage is never treated casually in scripture. Our culture has normalized relational collapse in ways that sometimes we barely even notice. Marriage rates in the Western world, in The United States, they have continued to plummet where people just don't even get married in the first place. Way lower than it's ever been. And cohabitation, it's just like, well, that's the new norm. That's what we do now. We don't need to put the ring on it. I'll get her a ring when we're 90. And there's a heart issue where permanence, it feels scary to people.”
55s
“And that's why this foundational truth of today's message is so important. Again, the measure of leaders is not the crowd that they gather, but rather that the leaders that they send. Doesn't matter how many people at your table. Doesn't matter if you don't have a fancy ministry. Arceus did not invent his ministry. Paul tells him, pay attention to the ministry we received from the Lord. It's received from the Lord. Arceus didn't go to the local Starbucks and recruit a bunch of people to start church. He received it from the lord. His responsibility wasn't to compare to the other ministries out there. His responsibility was just to see where god is working and letting it keep working through him.”
54s
“Epiphras was reached. He became rooted. He labored for his people. And Epiphras carried the gospel in himself and through himself. Now the question really comes to us, are you content in simply being reached? Will you be raised up by others? Don't wait for the impressive assignment. Don't assume someone else is gonna do it. Make yourself available. Be willing to be sent and by the grace of God through prayer, through availability, through all these things that we keep talking about, accomplish it.”
34s
“And honestly, that's where a lot of our relational struggles begin. Not just with the, well, we were so compatible before, but now we're not compatible anymore, so we just got to cut it off. Well, we have this conflict. And I think we just can't really get over it. And so I think it's over. We're resisting God's design itself. That's really where it starts. And then we start to make excuses at why we can put an end to this covenant relationship. If marriage is ours to redefine, it's always going to be adjusted when it becomes inconvenient.”
26s
“They want to debate when marriage can end. And Jesus is saying, let me start with what marriage actually is. And what makes this passage uncomfortable is that Jesus is not correcting he's not only correcting their theology about divorce. He's exposing what's deeper underneath what they're saying, that we have a tendency to negotiate with God instead of surrendering to him. Well, God, can I at least do this? If you let me do this, what are the exceptions?”
27s
“Jesus is saying, I'm calling you to surrender, to die to yourself instead of some ridiculous negotiation, always trying to find the loophole. Do I trust God that His design for life works? Somebody, that's what you need to begin today is to say, God, I trust you. I don't understand it all. I don't know everything, but I trust you. Trust your design. You trust God when it presses against your preferences.”
24s
“"Paul in Romans chapter 10 writes this, there's no difference between Jew and Gentile. In other words, there's no difference between the prodigal son and the older brother that was mad about the prodigal son getting favor. There's no difference between the rich and the poor. There's no difference between the Democrat and the Republican. There's no difference between the person that you hate and the person that you are. The same Lord, Paul says, the same Lord is the Lord of all and blesses all who call on him."”
24s
“"Jonah needed multiple revelations of the gospel in his life. I think we do too. We need a revelation on a regular basis of God's love, his grace, his mercy to realize that, man, his grace is scandalous. It doesn't make sense. And it's not fair. Yet, it's God's grace. And if it wasn't for that, none of us would be here today."”
25s
“"Jonah's mercy to a nation that's so evil, Jonah's so angry. And here's what I realized is that Jonah knows about God's mercy, but even after the events in the sea, even after God tries to show him and give him a revelation and he saves him in a fish, he knows about God's mercy, but he does not truly know God's mercy and love and grace deep in his soul."”
