Making Vows to God

sermon by Bro. Chris CarterPsalms 42:1-4At one point, you had a faith so strong that it shaped the very fiber of each day. You were conscious of God&apos;s presence even in the worst situations. The fire of Christ, almost imperceptibly, was extinguished. Your heart may have even grown to have a resistance to a loving God. Your waning faith happened because of the evil you witnessed around you and in everyday life. You long for the relationship you once had, but how do you find your way back? 

Thirsty for God

by Rev. Shane StanfordPsalm 51:1-19King David wrote this chapter during a time of great tragedy. He fears that he has finally done something that God cannot restore me from. We’ve all been there. Whether it is betrayal, anger, lust, deceit, hurt, or any other list of misfortunes, we have all felt the distance from God that we felt was irreconcilable.Yet how many times does God need to remind us, that no matter what we do He still loves us? 

How Many Times Must God Remind Us?

The Submitted Life by Bro. Chris CarterPsalms 2:1-12 (NIV)There are two ways of living: rebellion and submission. In today’s culture, submission is considered out of touch. Everyone wants to be on top. But God’s way is counterintuitive. He tells us that blessed is the person who will take refuge in me. So how do we live a life of submission? christchurchmemphis.org/feel-welcome

The Submitted Life

Psalm 1Sermon by Pastor Shane StanfordAs Christians, at some point in your life God will call you to do something that is irrational. Often there will be push back from those in our life who see the world and what we think it should be like. he first Psalm is a reflection of the lessons God taught Noah. David is reflecting on how a shepherd boy like himself rose to being a king. In Psalm 1, he is looking to stories he was taught as a child for him to relate to. 

Psalms: The Intimacy of God Pt. 1

The Bible Doesn&apos;t Say That Pt. 3Mark 5:21-43There will always be a limit to what you can know and do based on your own abilities. What we want from this phrase is to make people responsible for their own actions. The problem with that is there’s always a limit. The thing that we cannot do for ourselves is to save ourselves. We cannot fulfill the requirements that sin and brokenness have brought into our lives. God doesn’t care what we can do for ourselves, and ultimately, He had to do it for us through Jesus Christ. Sermon by Rev. Shane Stanford

God Helps Those Who Help Themselves? [Rev. Shane Stanford]

Change is scary. We fear losing our stability but we also fear a stagnant future full of regret. How do we reconcile with God when He calls us to situations that we find uncomfortable? In this discussion, Pastor Shane Stanford shares how we find peace in turbulent times through obedience despite God disrupting our comfort levels. 

Finding Peace in New Beginnings

The Bible Doesn&apos;t Say That Pt 2God Won&apos;t Give You More Than You Can Handle1 Corinthians 10:11-13 | Matthew 4There is nowhere in the Bible that it says that God won’t give you more than you can handle. On our own, we cannot handle so many of the things God gives us. In this sermon, we learn the strength that God enables us to endure our burdens. 

God Won't Give You More Than You Can Handle

The Bible Doesn&apos;t Say That: Pt 1God Wants You To Be Happy Mark 10:17-22There is nowhere in the Bible that says "God won’t give you more than you can handle." Our new sermon series examines three popular phrases. Our first week examines: God wants you to be happy. In reality, no, He doesn’t. When it comes to the nature of our world, God wants more than that type of happiness. He wants you to have joy. 

God Wants You To Be Happy

Sermon by Rev. Shane Stanford: Why the Flip Side Matters? - Mark 14:27-41No one wakes up in the morning and says “I want to mess up my life today.” What typically happens, is people take matters into their own hands in ways that God wouldn’t pursue. This inevitably leads us very far from the heart of God.  Even for the most faithful people on the planet, there are going to be days where we don’t get it right. But when we learn from those situations and allow the Lord to mold us, we get to see where God meets us in our disappointment.
