Where Do We Find Wisdom?
What is the true value of wisdom? And where should we find it? Pastor Brad looks at the call in Proverbs to follow Wisdom over the other things that beckon at us.
The Midnight Oil
What kind of service prepares us for Jesus’s return? Pastor Tim continues our series in Matthew 24-25, looking this week at how we are “good” in God’s eyes.
Getting and Letting Go
Where do we go for comfort? How do we turn our hearts from getting comfort in earthly things and instead look to Heavenly Treasure?
52 Verses, 52 Books, 52 Weeks (Week 25: Song of Songs)
Join us as Jim Krenning takes us to Song of Songs this week for 52v52b52w on #ThisWeekAtLittleHills!
Bring Back the Potluck
A modern day Christian might say that “Faith is personal”. I read alone. Study alone. Pray alone. And now I can even attend church alone. In the book of Acts we see that the Church is deeply communal! While each person owned their faith, they owned it in community. Like an old-time potluck, they brought their gifts and food to share with each other. The result was gladness, generosity, and growth of the community.
When Do I Need to Start Loving Cubs Fans?
Are we prepared for Jesus’s return? Pastor Tim continues our series in Matthew 24-25, looking this week at Jesus’s call that we always be prepared.
52 Verses, 52 Books, 52 Weeks (Week 24: Titus)
Join us this week for a visit to the Epistle to Titus, thinking about who we are, who God is and how He loves us.
Bring Back the Pulpit
It is a common theme: We need help. Our world is hurting and needs help. And we often seek it through TED talks and self-help books. When Peter preached his first sermon, he emphasized that Jesus came to do what we cannot accomplish on our own. No self-help can can replace Jesus’ victory over sin. That’s not just an Old Time Religion thing, that’s a promise all generations to come!
The Weak Get Going?
Pastor Tim continues our series in Matthew 24-25, looking this week at persecution, its results and our hope in the midst of it.
52 Verses, 52 Books, 52 Weeks (Week 23: Malachi)
Join us as Pastor Tim takes us to Malachi to think about how we treat God in comparison to those we look up to on Earth. Are we giving God our best?
Bring Back the Power
In our hurry to be accepted by culture, have we lost the power of what is supposed to set us apart from the culture? The power of the church isn’t in degrees or pastors or business strategies, it is in the Holy Spirit. If we’re going to be a 21st century church that leads people to find and follow Jesus, we may need to bring back “That Old Time Religion,” meaning that we look at the exciting growth and example of the 1st century church as we see it in Acts.
Phishers of Men
As we continue our series “the Future is Here,” Pastor Tim digs into Jesus’s warnings about those who will lead many astray — false Messiahs and false prophets.
52 Verses, 52 Books, 52 Weeks (Week 22: Romans)
Pastor Tim turns to Romans for Memorial Day Weekend as we continue our 52 week journey through 52 Verses from 52 Books!
Is the Low Fuel Light of Time On?
As Pastor Tim takes us to Matthew 24 for our new message series on the End Times, we need to think of two risks we face when dealing with the future: apathy and obsession. In contrast to these, Jesus instructs us on how to have the right mindset about the future.
52 Verses, 52 Books, 52 Weeks (Week 21: James)
Jim Krenning takes us to the Epistle of James to think about how sin affects our testimony and how faithfulness can point people to Jesus.
Crazy Commitment
Are we satisfied with the way things are? Maintaining the status quo keeps us in the crowd - Jesus calls us out of the crowd into discipleship of crazy faith. When we do this we commit to counting the cost and giving it all over to him.
Poor Excuses?
The Bible says we should care for the poor, but also suggests limits on what we do. How do we understand that balance so we can be Christ-like to those around us?
Crazy Generosity
Generosity starts where sacrifice begins. As challenging as it may be to accept, how we use our money is our reflection of our heart. Jesus asked his disciples to consider the Widow, in Mark 12:41-44, as an example of what crazy generosity looked like. There are opportunities for us also to join God in living out a blessed generous life!
52 Verses, 52 Books, 52 Weeks (Week 20: Acts)
This week, we turn to Acts for hope as we are each called to carry on God’s Mission.
Respect the Curry
Pastor Tim continues our series in Proverbs, considering what the Proverbs tell us about whom we should spend time around.
