Sermon clips from Scottsville churches

54s
“You see, we are not defending a fragile faith. We are bearing witness to the all sufficient one, the god that is more than enough. You see, Jesus is enough before circumstances change. Jesus is enough before culture agrees. Jesus is enough before opposition disappears. Listen. Maybe you're facing opposition. Maybe you're there today. Things are just not going right. And everywhere you look, you feel the pressure and things crashing in. Jesus is enough before it disappears. He is more than enough.”
55s
“You see, what we run to first often reveals what we truly believe. What we run to first often reveals what we truly believe. We constantly try to fill these ins insufficient these infinite needs in our life with insufficient saviors. Do you really believe that Jesus is enough? Do you really believe that Jesus is enough? Because if he is, you won't stay silent. You won't live casually, and you won't treat him as optional.”
35s
“Sometimes our silence is not an information problem. It's an intimacy problem. Sometimes our silence is not all the knowledge of scripture that we have. It's the fact that we lack the intimate relationship with Jesus that we need. Because what? Because the El Shaddai, the all sufficient one, will produce boldness that the world cannot silence.”
28s
“A healed man that became the visible evidence. It wasn't emotional hype. It wasn't staged. It wasn't something temporary. This is a man that had never walked a day in his life and he's standing before him healed. Here's the evidence. Everybody knew him, and he's standing there healed in the name of Jesus. And the leaders literally, the Bible tells us they didn't know what to say. They were silent, and the only thing they could do was not deny it.”
42s
“"Church, here's my challenge for you. Let's prepare our hearts right now for what God is going to do moving forward. Those people that you've been praying for. Those people that you've been inviting. They may not have the same testimony as Amy. But they're dead to their sin. And this morning, we have the opportunity. To pray for them. To be a part of what God is going to do in their lives. Moving forward in the next month. We believe that chains are going to be broken. We believe that curses are going to be removed. We believe that people are going to step from death to life. And we get to be a part of that. And today, we recognize God for who he is. And what he'll do."”
39s
“"Maybe you're here today and you understand that you need change in your life. Maybe, maybe you didn't want to come in here because you were afraid of being judged. Maybe your life's in shambles like Amy's was. Maybe you're here and you're like me. You had religion, but you needed relationship with Jesus to change your perspective. I don't know where you are, but here's what I know. Today, you have the opportunity to meet a person named Jesus who will change your life. And how do I know that? Because he changed mine. And he changed her life. And he changed hers."”
31s
“"Here's why that happened. It's, it's not because we found our people. It's because we found a person. We found a person named Jesus. And he saw us while we were contemplating under that tree. He saw us while we were thinking about life. And we understood that things were undone. And because of this community that we had, we found him in a deeper and a more intimate way. And Jesus changed our lives."”
41s
“"Sometimes the one that carried in the beginning needs to be carried at the end. And so this person who tells this story about our group carrying her and loving her family back to life carried me. About a year ago, I was struggling with a pretty severe bout of depression, and I've been pretty open about that, and the struggle was so real for me. And I didn't want to get out of bed in the morning. I didn't want to come. The church, I didn't want to be around people, and that's not like me. I'm a social person."”
26s
“"It's not a recovery thing. It's not a program, a process. It's a God thing. And, and, and God moved and, and your passion, um, for, for your people, uh, is so real. It's, it's one of my favorite pictures, um, of you that we get to see, like just the difference. That, that you're making, uh, in people's lives day in and day out. It's, it's because you found your passion and you're helping people find theirs."”
33s
“"Growth multiplies when we find our passion. Right. And you found your passion. That's what, that's what caused that, that growth to happen, that the multiplication that, that took place and, and the life change that, that, you know, that this church got to be a part of through, through your leadership and your passion. Um, and, and listen, the dream center is such a big part of what we do because I believe that's another time where God did God things. Amen. Right. God did God things. And, and so much has happened through the DC, right? So much stuff."”
