Sermon clips from Elgin Township churches

48s
“And maybe you're here today and you're thinking, pastor, I really can't love anybody because I didn't grow up in an environment of wealth. I just don't understand it. I barely started coming to this church. I'm barely starting to learn how to shake hands and, like, sorta hug people. Like, I never did that before. Like, I don't know how to love people. Alright? And the reason why you can love somebody is because, listen, god loved us first. And because god loved us first, god is love. And because god is love, we are now image bearers of god if you are sons and daughters of god. And because you are now image bearers of god, we now have the capacity to be able to love others and serve them the way Jesus loved us and served us. That's the reality. That's the truth.”
61s
“Everyone have forgotten you shall become an instrument of your elevation. I say shall become the instrument of your elevation. When God vindicate, he does not need your help. It simply means you're patient. When your divine vindication time comes, Mhmm. God does not need your help. Don't help God about those documents, about your stay, about that your marriage, about that your career, about that your plan. God does not need your help. All what God needs from you is to trust and obey him. Trust and obey.”
47s
“Church, the the the world needs to see a people of faith who aren't destroyed by the brokenness of this world because we know that Jesus will make all things new. The greatest hope for Elgin and for Beirut are people who have been renewed by the gospel and who live as if the promises of the gospel are real. Friends, what we believe is important because it directly affects how we live. And a clear vision of the end, even though the circumstances, in the present may not change, will bear fruit in our lives today.”
60s
“So it's okay not to be okay. But second, listen, listen very closely to me. You gotta learn how to lament. The Bible is filled with a whole category of words and emotions that God endorses called lament. We have a whole book of it, Lamentations. I want you to think about this for a minute. God, in his divine sovereign kindness, knew that our lives were gonna be so challenging at points that we would run out of words to say to God. We wouldn't know how to deal with the world around us. And so he gives us in Psalms and Lamentations and other things. He says, listen, let me, through the Holy Spirit, inspire these writers who are gonna give you my words to complain back to me.”
78s
“That word yield is an important word. Esta palabra que dice, presentéis vuestros miembros. Because something is going to govern your life. Porque algo va a gobernar tu vida. Something is going to influence you. Algo te va a influenciar. And the question is this, is who am I yielding to? Y la pregunta es, ¿a quién te estás rindiendo? And holiness begins when I say this, Lord, you have the right to lead me. Y la santidad comienza cuando dice, Señor, tú tienes el derecho de guiarme. In everything. En cualquier área. You have the right to lead my entire life. Tienes el derecho de guiar toda mi vida. You have the right to confront me. Tienes el derecho de confrontarme. You have the right to change me. Tienes el derecho de cambiarme. I'm yielding to him. Me estoy rindiendo a”
43s
“It is a tragedy if all you think the Christian walk is is to come to church and then to do your own thing. No. Christ is to infuse our whole life. He is not elf on the shelf. He wants to walk with you through every aspect of life. I I've learned that with the Mitchells, with going through the hardest times of my life. Jesus has an answer for when we're depressed, when we're lonely, when we're hungry. Jesus has a way. That is the good news, and if you take nothing away from this sermon today, hear that.”
55s
“Maybe we feel like this man, suffering with with something in our life. Maybe we feel like we've been lost in a crowd, not sure if anyone notices anymore, or possibly that we're just not being heard. The story reminds us that Jesus restores this man's hearing and his speech, that we, in the process, are also heard, that our lives are touched by Jesus and we're healed and given new life. It is through this language of physical touch that God offers yet another way of loving us. If we think about it, the only way God could have demonstrated this love language of touch is through the sending of his son, Jesus Christ.”
51s
“One specific example might be to join in and be a part of getting to know our community during our pet blessing event in October. We'll have an opportunity to meet those who come, hopefully lots of families from the CDC and our neighborhood, and let them know we are here with a simple no expectation event of loving what they love. True kingdom greatness begins when we drop the facade of having it all together or assuming we know what others want, and instead, making ourselves available to listen directly and learn from our neighbors.”
69s
“But the greatest in the kingdom of god is not the person who has it all together. It is not the one who seemingly has all the right answers and all the right things. The greatest of the kingdom of god is not the one who never sins or who never at least has the appearance of sin. The one greatest in the kingdom of god is not even one who has the best childlike faith. They lorded over others and how much they trust in God. No. The greatest in the kingdom of God is like a little child who cannot rely on anything else than the love of their parent and the love of others. The greatest in the kingdom of god is like a child who is taken care of, nourished, and valued above all things. And the greatest in the kingdom of heaven is the one who needs Jesus Christ the most.”
51s
“What about my lungs? We don't see the lungs. What about my spleen? Those parts that we don't see are the vital parts. I as Paul put it, they have the honor, the highest honor. Those people we don't see that are behind the scenes, that are taking care of our children, that are in the booth, that are getting the floors of the church ready before we show up or the chairs. Those are the heart, the lungs, the spleen of the church. Those are services that make it vital for us to sit here and enjoy the word of God coming to us and listen to God speak to us.”
