Sermon clips from North Collins churches

41s
“Here's the thing I start with in every conversation I have about fasting, from sermons to we just talked about this in our cultivate small group. Notice Jesus' words in this passage. He says, when you fast. you fast, when you fast. This isn't just understood as a Christian practice. This was so understood as a normative Christian practice, such a regular and consistent thing that Jesus didn't have to say, go and fast and do it like this. He says, when you fast.”
36s
“We have learned that a good life is a full life, that a comfortable life is a life of excess. But I wonder if maybe the thing that we might be most enslaved to is excess itself. When I feel like I need the new iPhone, something's broken. That being the case, perhaps one of the best things we can do in the pursuit of breakthrough is to talk about how to cut things out in order to focus on the one thing that we truly need.”
31s
“Fasting does not make us the worst versions of ourselves. Fasting reveals to us the worst that is already in there and invites us to overcome. The reasons we may want to avoid it might be the exact reasons that we need it. Fasting sounds awful. And to be honest, it sometimes is. But in reality, fasting is also life giving in so many ways that I don't know if we can fully understand until we've done it.”
31s
“When did we see healing? When our fast included justice. Scripture is consistently clear from Old Testament to New. Our inner practices must lead to outward action or they are not real Christian practices. A true fast leads to goodness for the people around us. James one twenty seven reminds us, religions that God our father accepts as pure and faultless is this, to look after widows and orphans.”
43s
“"At some point, we've got to let them run with the baton or else they're just going to drop it and leave it with us. We have a privilege. When I look at this church, older, younger, we have the kids running and giving high fives. We have kids who sometimes wait at the door to hold it open for us. We can see more of that if we empower them to do it. Let's run the race together. Younger generation, let's grab the baton. Older generation, let's run with them. Let's continue to build the foundation that God has for us, running with fervor the race that has been laid out for us by Jesus Christ, building into a legacy, that North Collins Wesleyan can have for our grandchildren and their grandchildren."”
47s
“"If I'm an older generation, my job is to share my story with my kids as long as they'll listen and all of it. I have a huge temptation to paint myself in a very positive light. made a lot of mistakes. I've made a lot of failures. There are definitely cracks in the foundations that I've built. Man, I want my kids to have better than I have. You know? If I am one of the more seasoned, my gift is to mentor. If I'm looking at the generations that have come before me, my job is to build. It's to step up and continue to build off of the foundations that have been made for me, to work alongside with the older generation and honor that legacy, not just completely dash it all aside."”
27s
“"Younger generations, we have a choice. We can focus on mistakes and repeat them, or we can shift our eyes and repeat our parents' success. And for us who are fathers, we can help to share what worked for us and what didn't. To be open about our successes and our failures, and to invest, to mentor, and to love our children and grandchildren, and help them build the world that we've had the privilege of investing in."”
43s
“"This sermon isn't an older generation, just let go sermon. It's not a younger generation, grab on and sprint ahead sermon. This sermon is a let's learn to run, together sermon. Let's learn to honor the runner who came before, building off the foundations of what's been given. Let's learn when to let go so that they can run for themselves. If I'm young, the world is not only mine and I wouldn't have any of it that weren't who came before me. And I can't just try to bulldoze them. If I'm more seasoned, the world is still mine, but it is theirs too. We have to give them a voice within it."”
33s
“"To adopt is to fully live with the cracks that are already there. To overcorrect is to build a whole new system. But what if we just built off of what's there and fixed? What if we worked together with the older generations to fill in some of the cracks? And just build the next floor of the house so that our children can build the next floor of the house and the next thing you know, we have a home that we can all live in together. For the younger generation, our job is to continue to build off of what's already been established rather than tear it all down and start again to honor the legacy that's come before."”
39s
“"For each of us in this church, we have generations that come before, that come after. We adopt or overcorrect. But when I look to the book of Daniel, for the younger generation specifically, and older generation, Sandy, we'll get to you. Don't worry, this sermon's for everybody. I think the better response we learn from this book is not to fully adopt, not to fully overcorrect, but to build. Every single one of us has had a foundation established for us by the generation that has come before us. There might be a few cracks in the foundation because nobody's perfect, but there is a foundation."”

Why North Collins churches are unique

Set amid fields and wooded hills in the Southtowns, churches in North Collins, NY reflect a rural rhythm where planting, harvest, and family life shape community calendars. You’ll find congregations that lean into neighborly care with small group culture, strong kids programs for young families, and service projects for farm families.
The town’s close ties between the village, outlying hamlets, and nearby Indigenous communities foster a welcoming, service-first ethos in many North Collins churches. That collaborative spirit shows up in community outreach and local partnerships, opportunities for intercultural learning and reconciliation, and practical care like addiction recovery and counseling ministries.
Winters influenced by Lake Erie snow make church campuses steady gathering places for resilience and mutual aid, while summers bring picnics, youth sports, and country fairs that knit people together. This blend of tradition and fresh expressions means many congregations offer both traditional hymns and acoustic worship and modern worship with contemporary band, alongside hands-on help through volunteer disaster response teams.
