Sermon clips from Norcross churches

48s
“And then you just miss your opportunity because you don't think you're good enough, because you don't think you're smart enough, because you're maybe not godly enough. These are all the thoughts that we have in this room that we share in. Maybe we've done too much bad stuff or maybe we don't have the skills or we don't know the Bible. Maybe we're going through something that's just so challenging we can't even picture anything out of the immediate thing in front of our faces. Maybe it just feels too messy. Maybe the commitment is just too high. Maybe the time's not right. These are the kinds of thoughts that we all bring in to the room together, and yet, we have all been invited to play.”
44s
“And I really hope you don't hear shame in this, but you hear an invitation and you see all of our humanity. These are thoughts that we all have. And Peter was the very first one to play. He stepped out on the field and said, I believe Jesus is king and now my whole life is gonna be different as I receive the blessing of God to go and do amazing work. And so many others have followed throughout the generations and the same opportunity exists for us today, not because we are enlightened saints, but because we are forgiven sinners.”
53s
“I've got a couple other questions that I really wanna encourage you to reflect on this week and actually to talk to someone about if you feel like you're able to. Find a trusted person, sit down with a pastor if you don't have someone in your life who can chat about these kinds of things with you, and talk about what God is inviting you to do as an ordained minister of the kingdom of heaven. And also talk about, are you convinced of God's love for you and God's love for the world? Jesus' Messianic mission has been made known to us through the gospel and through the revelation of Jesus that we all carry. We don't have to wait for anything. We get to bring the kingdom of heaven to earth now through the favor of God and the power of the spirit as we proclaim the kingship of Christ.”
48s
“We are invited into a life of mutual love with one another and God. Before Jesus goes to die on the cross he tells his disciples that he will be one with them when we love him and each other. In this way he invites us to be one with him as he is one with the father. Through our mutual love for one another we get to experience the oneness with Jesus and somehow we get to dance into this beautiful dance of the trinity. It's this mutual giving and receiving that the church gets to do and be. This is the dance we're invited into.”
41s
“But as we find in scripture, God is not hands off. He's deeply and intimately concerned with the world and the people in whom he has made. And we see from the outset of Genesis that God is so much bigger than a reflection of ourselves or a comic book superhero. We get this image of this cosmic triune God who creates because he desires to be with his creation. In the Genesis narrative we're told that God the father speaks. And in John one we're reminded that the word that is spoken is none other than Jesus Christ the son of God.”
36s
“The Trinity, this one God and three persons, father, son, holy spirit, shows us the mystery of God as deeply relational. That God cares and he knows. And I think it's important to name that the father, the son, and the holy spirit aren't three separate gods nor is God putting on a hat to do something different. It is this weird confusing mystery where God is both three and one. It's mind boggling and I think that's the point.”
40s
“In the text we're told that we are made in the image of God, which means that Adam wasn't complete until Eve came. Or to put another way, we are in the image and likeness of the triune God when we are together. A mentor and professor of mine, Keith Johnson once put it this way, There is no such thing as a human who images God in isolation. If our being in the image of God is determined by our relationships with God and others, then the way we exist is just as important as the fact that we exist.”
23s
#SturdyInGodsLove
“How would your life changed if you knew that you were ultimately safe in God's kingdom and that nothing could separate you from his love? I think we would be brave. I think we would be sturdy. I think we would be the kinds of people who speak to the hurt and the pain of the world and the people around us in a way that is transformative and life giving. This is what you are if you're a Christian.”
26s
#BodilyResurrectionTruth
“Resurrection meant something very specific in ancient Israel. It meant someone was alive and then dead, not mostly dead, not I got in the tomb, it was nice and cool, I started to feel a little better, and I came out. It was almost like a near no. Dead, like really dead, and then they became fully bodily alive again.”
21s
“"Most of our sin is just a strategy to numb out when we feel overwhelmed. It's why we do things that we know aren't good for us. And rather than beating yourself up about those things, just recognize that God wants to meet you in the discomfort of life."”
