Sermon clips from West Fargo churches

45s
“And so we heard just two very clear examples of generosity. The widow who gave all she had by her trust in God and the followers of Jesus who, by grace, they gave urgently and joyously even though they had very little. Friends, that's what freedom looks like. That's what freedom sounds like. It's when whatever you've been given, you trust it all to God. And when opportunities arise to give, that you are available to be an influence and to make an impact and to make a difference, and you get to do it with joy and celebration.”
43s
“And here's what happens when you feel pressure And when I feel pressure, you don't feel free. When you feel pressure, you don't feel free. And when you don't feel free, you don't give freely. When you don't feel free, you don't give freely. But here's the good news. Here's the good news. Because of Jesus, we are free to give like we have nothing to lose. Because of Jesus and because of what he did and when we receive him in our life, he wants us to have freedom to give like we've got nothing to lose.”
41s
“Generosity is planned. Generosity is sitting down and and calling places that break your heart and saying, you can count on me to give this this year because I'm planning the generosity in my life. Here's what generosity is, and this is this is what we wanna focus on. Generosity is faith in God's abundance. There's always more. There's always more. We don't have to live in a scarcity mindset where we don't have enough. Generosity is faith in God's abundance. Generosity is participation in furthering the mission of God. It's partnering together and generosity is my favorite defiance of fear.”
43s
“Because here's the thing, the world says, and it'll say all the time, there's not enough. There's not enough. I don't have enough. If we all get it, then there's definitely not enough, so we gotta fight each other for it. Like the world's gonna tell us over and over and over again, there's not enough. But listen, Jesus says everywhere consistently in scripture, and he showed us through his death on the cross, Jesus says, I am enough. I'm enough. So we don't give to survive. We give because we're free and we're alive in Jesus.”
33s
“"Our prayers have the ability to heal. Our prayers have the ability to nourish. They have the power to change an entire generation. They have the power to change an entire nation. So the next time, maybe you feel frustrated with a coworker, with a child, with our nation, with the political system, instead of toothpaste blurting out something negative, blurting out something harmful, use that as an opportunity to pray life and give life for change."”
32s
“"Friends, I want you to know that when you allow God into your heart, when you allow God into your life, your prayers are powerful at changing and healing the lives of those people in you. Going back to the story I told earlier about Izzy, my daughter, about brushing her teeth. Well, finally, we got her to bed. I got her to bed, and nighttime is hard. It's just not my prime time, but I got her to bed, and I endure it to get to this moment."”
41s
“"A genuine faith, a life of integrity means that you are not okay putting on like the church face, the church jacket. Okay, I'm in church. I'm not going to swear. You know, I'm with this friends. I can talk this way. Now I'm with this friends. I can talk another way. A genuine relationship with Jesus Christ calls you to a higher standard. You see what comes out of your mouth is a reflection of what's in your heart. What comes out of your mouth reveals the kind of relationship that you have with Jesus Christ."”
27s
“"Fathers, guys, our voices can be really, really strong and really, really powerful. One small sarcastic remark, or one small critical remark. Husbands, fathers, guys, our words carry a lot of power. We can't control our tongues and our voices. We can't control our lives. Our words carry a lot of weight."”
37s
“"I think oftentimes, like what we learned about in week one, is that in the midst of these trials of faith, there is a maturing process that God wants to do us. There is a growing up and a refining that God wants to do in our lives. And I wonder if some of you today trial of faith and you're just wishing that it was over. And I just think if your life is like mine, that God is asking you just to take a deep breath and ask God, what do you have for me in this trial?"”
20s
“"Friends, our tongue, our tongue is so powerful. Our words are so powerful. We must choose to use them wisely. Throughout this series, we've given out a number of challenges. So I'll continue with that. Just the next few things that I want you to work on is first and foremost, begin to tame your tongue."”
