Sermons on Sin (Page 4)
The Breakfast Club
Sometimes we’re stalled because of our own sins and failures. Let’s meet the disciples at such a moment, and discover how we can get going and growing again. *Christ’s Church is a strategic partner of Grace Chapel in Lexington, MA and features the teaching of Pastor Bryan Wilkerson and the Grace Chapel Teaching Team.
Really: Do I Really Need Jesus?
Jesus didn’t present himself as one of many options for a good and meaningful life. He presented himself as the only option for a life that’s as good and meaningful as it was meant to be, and the only hope for life beyond the grave. *Christ’s Church is a strategic partner of Grace Chapel in Lexington, MA and features the teaching of Pastor Bryan Wilkerson and the Grace Chapel Teaching Team.
Rediscovering Jesus: The Essential Jesus
Colossians 1. Cosmologists continue to search for an equation that explains the universe. What if the answer is not in an equation, but a person? The apostle Paul tells us that everything was created through and for Jesus. Is Jesus at the center of your life?
Rediscovering Jesus: Lost & Found
Luke 19:1-10. In the story of Zacchaeus we see that Jesus came to seek and to save what was lost. He calls us to the same mission.
Resetting Our Perspective
1 Peter 2. This message comes from Grace Chapel’s “Reset” series. Pastor Bryan discusses the recent federal ruling on gay marriage and how living lives of respect, remarkable love and doing good can help us to glorify God in a culture that may feel at odds with our faith.
More: One in the Spirit
As Christ’s Church continues exploring a strategic partnership with Grace Chapel, we’re excited to present the “More” series from Pastor Bryan Wilkerson and the Grace Chapel Teaching Team. In this final installment of the series, we’re reminded of the importance of unity in the body of Christ. Paul’s letter to the Corinthians, a once thriving church, shows us how division will weaken the flow of God’s Spirit to His people. We need to be one in the spirit if we…
More: Tending the Well
As Christ’s Church continues exploring a strategic partnership with Grace Chapel, we’re excited to present the “More” series from Pastor Bryan Wilkerson and the Grace Chapel Teaching Team. In this week’s message we see that the flow of the Holy Spirit into our lives and the “more” we’re seeking from God gets stopped up when sin is left unchecked. It also harms the people we’re called to love and serve. King David’s Psalm of confession, Psalm 51, helps us to discover four helpful steps…
Forgiveness
Genesis 34 and Colossians 3. Elder Ralph Paul shares two stories of tragedy, contrasting the dire consequences of unforgiveness with the powerful work of God that can occur when we embody Jesus’ command to forgive.
Book of Acts: Law and Grace
Acts 15. In this chapter a great debate comes to a head in the Jerusalem council, do the Gentiles need to convert to Judaism to be saved? If not, then what requirements are placed on them? Dale Kuehne shares his personal list of 6 guiding points, not specific laws, that help him to pursue a life of holiness and remain centered in the mission Christ.

Advent in Isaiah: The Lord has Laid on Him the Iniquity of Us All
Isaiah 53, Revelation 12. Dale Kuehne draws upon Isaiah’s suffering servant prophecy to remind us that we have all gone astray. It was for our sin that Jesus came into this world to die for our redemption. We did not deserve this act of love, and so we must extend this same grace to all of mankind, even those who we consider worse sinners than ourselves.
Advent in Isaiah: We’re All in it Together
Joshua 24, Judges 2, Isaiah 6. Dr. Dale Kuehne emphasizes the collective responsibility that we have as followers of God, not just for the present, but for the past and future as well. In Isaiah we see that though the prophet’s words will be ignored by his generation, he must still be faithful to deliver God’s message. These words will be discovered by a future generation who will need them to recognize the Messiah.
