Sermon clips from Wilbraham churches

31s
“And then you learn to discern his voice better the next time, and the next time, and the next time. You know, there's a verse from scripture that I was thinking about for today's service and I wrote it in my journal because it really impacted me. It's from Jeremiah thirty three three. It's God speaking to his people. And he says, call to me and I will answer you and I will tell you great and hidden things that you have not known.”
39s
“maybe we used to hear God's voice. Maybe God even used us in great ways in the past. But we've let some things dull our hearing. Somehow Eli didn't hear from God enough to raise up his own children well and God had to use a child to bring conviction to him. Maybe there's something in your life that God's speaking to you about right now. Maybe there's a blockage between you and him that he wants to clear up so you could hear his voice.”
20s
“So in what way today do you need to call out to him? Maybe there's something in the way like Eli had to deal with and you need to get that out of the way so you can call to him. But it's not that the Lord's arm is too short to save or his ear dull to hear, but your iniquities have separated you from your God.”
26s
“But you have to learn sometime, don't you? You don't jump from this to that. It's a process where you learn to hear and obey the voice of God. So that thing that God's speaking to you about, How do you get better at hearing his voice? You get better by hearing what he's telling you now and doing it.”
29s
“"When I get the hub right, the rest rolls in balance. And it's all important. How I see and treat myself, body, soul, and spirit, God, others, family, friends, church, outsiders. Look, God cares about you taking care of your body, loving your neighbor, loving yourself, treating your wife right. And I'll get all that right when I'm connected to Christ. It's all connected through the hub. It's not just what we do at church. It's a part of what we do because Christ is at the center."”
24s
“"The only secure, stable, significant, and satisfying basis for self-identity is the reality of who we are in Christ. He helps our inner and outer world be in balance. He is my peace. He is my life. He is my light. And we can only see and live in healthy community rather than in impoverished isolation when we see that connection with Christ and how it connects us with others who are in Christ."”
33s
“"When the heart is focused on Christ, he becomes relevant to every other part of our life and empowers and enlivens those parts in the proper way. When the hub is in good shape and it's properly attached to the rim by the spokes, the wheel functions in balance as it should. Every part's important, even the rim, but connected and supported by the center. My relationship with God, the body, others, myself, and the world, when Christ is at the center, it's all in the right balance."”
40s
“"Think of life like a bicycle tire. You have the outer rim, and you have the center and the hub. Well, most people live a compartmentalized life. All the parts of their life are kind of out on the rim of that tire, right? Health, friends over here, and family, and main relationship, and personal growth, and fun and recreation over here, and physical life over here, and physical environment over here, and sense of purpose on this part of the wheel, career, money, spiritual life. That's how they have their life, all in these component parts all around the wheel."”
24s
“"Most believers live more influenced by their culture than by their Creator. The compartmentalization of life compounds this problem. Christ is present in their life, not saying He's not, but He's not prominent in their life. Matthew 6 records these words, Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, or about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?"”
24s
“"The good news is that what is in you can be greater than what's outside of you. When Christ is formed in us, we can live with a greater force and pressure within us than what stands against us on the outside, that we're no longer manipulated by fear or loss or any of that because I know God has me. And we can cooperate with God for this vibrant, strong spiritual life to be formed in us."”
