In both of these stories the hearer is told to give up control of the things God does and to be proactive in what they can do. In other words, rather than trying to figure out the soil just scatter seed. But maybe more importantly, be good soil.

Two men went up to the temple to pray...

Are we so focused on our own goodness that we miss out on the goodness of God?

To a Jewish person in the first century, a Samaritan was anything but "good". The Jews hated the Samaritans and the Samaritans hated the Jews. 

To many in the day of Jesus, his teachings regarding the Kingdom of God were unfair. Some categorized his teachings as backwards and upside down. It seemed like Jesus' teachings always favored the small, the weak, and the underdog. Those who wanted to be powerful, in first place or the greatest, just didn't get what Jesus was talking about. This is one of those parables that makes people complain "this is backwards" or this is "unfair".

Let's pray, together, and for one another.

It is undeniable that the early church placed heavy emphasis on the practice of prayer as a community. In key moments in the story of the early church, we find them praying. In one particular episode, while the church was praying, the house where they were praying began to shake. In this last sermon of the series, we will be encouraged to participate in a 21 Day prayer event. May God shake our house, shake our lives and move powerfully amongst us.

Sometimes we feel apathetic, disinterested, discouraged, weary, frustrated and all alone. Do we pray when we feel this way? Do we pray for those who are feeling this way? May we be driven to our knees to pray to God. May we have ears to listen and a heart to feel his reassuring message of hope, strength and the confidence of being part of Gods faithful community.

One of the most important features of mobile phones is the GPS app that gives directions and helps us to get to our desired destinations. Several of Paul’s prayers for the church were based on a desire for the church to find its way and position in God’s kingdom.

Why did Jesus withdraw from the crowds and his disciples repeatedly? The scripture says that Jesus “often” withdrew to lonely places to pray. In this initial sermon, we will look to Jesus to give us direction in our own prayer lives. It is important for us to “disconnect” so that we can connect.

With limited resources (financial, people, etc.), our church has been able to accomplish a lot. There is still a lot in store for the people of God at Reynoldsburg. In this sermon, we will explore current and upcoming opportunities for us for the rest of 2019. This again presents us with a moment to celebrate God, celebrate each other and celebrate our common purpose as a faith community.

In this message, we will explore our current condition as a local church. I will share our worship schedule, our current involvement in ministry and our health as a body. This sermon will serve as a “State of the Body” address. Prayerfully, we will take note of our challenges and the Holy Spirit’s presence in our body to meet and overcome our challenges in the name of Jesus.

In this sermon, we will briefly speak about our story as a church including our identification with the A cappella churches of Christ and the story of the Reynoldsburg church in the city of Reynoldsburg. In order to know where we are going, it may be important to know where we’ve been.

Relationships run on the currency of time and conversation. Same goes for our relationship with God.

There is constant temptation to fall into the ways of the world, or to assimilate in such a way that goes counter to what God wants.

During difficult times of trial, persecution and harassment, Simon encourages the church community to lean on their relationships with one another.

It is important for us to see ourselves as partners with God in the transformation of the world. We have the honor of bringing more good to our world.

Trying to be like someone else is not uncommon. Actually being someone else is impossible. But that's exactly what Peter tells us to do.. to be Jesus.

You ARE God's special people. You are his possession, a people he calls his own. You don't have to walk around feeling rejected and dejected. You belong to him.
