What happens when we become bored with God? This is the first sign of becoming dull towards the gospel and entering into spiritual immaturity. Like any good coach, teacher, or leader, the Pastor of Hebrews uses inspiration, instruction, and intensity to help his church body become all they were meant to be in Christ. Dullness leads to destruction and devastation. But there is something more in Christ. So let's press onto maturity because there is always more in Christ!            Enjoyed the message?

All of us bring questions before God: Is he good? Can he be trusted? Is he worth following? God has answered this in Christ with an emphatic "YES!" Jesus entered into the lowest positions to sympathize with us. But then he stepped into his rightful position to lead us. In Christ, we have the perfect High Priest we can trust with our lives and follow him with everything in us.            Enjoyed the message?

There is coming a moment when we stand before God and must give an account of how we live our lives. So how can we use TODAY to prepare for THE DAY? As we look at Hebrews 4:12-13, we see how the word of God prepares us for eternity with God.           Enjoyed the message?

For many of us, we think rest is simply leisure or relaxation. But biblical rest is so much more. Rest is experiencing all God has for us, both now and forever. Those who walk in rest are embracing God's promises, enjoying God's presence, and experiencing God's peace. The offer for this rest is for today. It's not something you can earn, only something you can receive in Christ alone.           Enjoyed the message?

How many people truly finish well in this life? Of those who were delivered out of Egypt, only .0003% did. 2 out of over 600,000 people actually finished strong in their faith. This warning is for us to continue to move through our journey with Jesus in faith in Jesus. Many of us spend our lives wandering through the wilderness, missing out on the fullness of Christ. God is warning us not to disbelieve in the gospel of Christ but to draw near because Jesus is better.           Enjoyed the message?

For all the Moses is, Jesus is better. Moses had an assignment, and he was faithful as a servant. Jesus had an assignment, and he was faithful as a son. No matter your assignment, the call is to be faithful to the One who was faithful till the end.           Enjoyed the message?

As we wrap up Hebrews 2, the pastor of Hebrews is giving us five amazing truths about Jesus that are possible thanks to Christ coming as a human, yet still being fully God. This passage shows us that we have a God that understands the human experience. Jesus got tired, He got hungry, and He was tempted to sin just like us. But He did not sin and took our payment for sin, so we no longer have to fear the cost of sin: deathâwhat a good God.           Enjoyed the message?

Hebrews 2:5â13 is a complicated passage, but the message is clear: Jesus is better because of His humanity.

So far, in the book of Hebrews, our author has lifted up our eyes to see Jesus. Now, as we move into chapter 2, he looks us in the eye and emphatically says, "Don't drift away!" It is easy to drift. It is natural to drift. It is dangerous to drift. We can drift towards licentiousness or legalism, passivity or performance, rebellion or religion. God wants us to walk faithfully in a loving relationship with God. This takes a moment-by-moment, daily reminder of the goodness of Christ and the joy of following him. So don't drift away...2022-09-0535 minCityBridge Community Church89 // Hebrews: The Better MessengerTeacher: Derek Mathews. Jesus is the better messenger. He is the Son of God who fulfills the promises of God. He is the One who is worthy of worship and service. He is the eternal King and sits supreme over all. Jesus is BETTER. We are all tempted to drift back to lesser things. But when we truly see Jesus for who He is, we see God's primary message: He loves us.

He is better than anything you can compare him to and anything that has come before. Yet, as we look at our lives, we can drift away from the person and work of Jesus. The book of Hebrews shines a light on Jesus. In the opening paragraph, we see seven reasons why Jesus is better. As we see him for who he truly is, we find the joy and life we were made for. The message of Hebrews is simple: don't drift away, draw near, because Jesus is Better.          Enjoyed t...2022-08-2244 minCityBridge Community Church87 // Psalm 27: IntimacyTeacher: Kyle Kaigler. How do we strengthen our faith? We seek the LORD. We often get stuck in our walk with Jesus. It may be because of ongoing sin, past wounds, getting content in our walk, or a bad view of God. Whatever it may be, the answer to how to continue to grow in your walk with the LORD is to seek the LORD. As we close our Psalm series, we look at Psalm 27 to see six tools for seeking God and strengthening our faith. The more we use the tools, the more we will see stories of...2022-08-1540 minCityBridge Community Church86 // Psalm 77: LamentTeacher: Jeff Parker. We are called to grieve but as those with hope. But how do we do that? Psalm 77 gives us a window into how a faithful follower of God lamented the sorrows and pain of this world. He entered into genuine questions while lifting his eyes to remember the promises of God. The way to trust God's character today and his future promises are to remember his former mercies. So when life feels overwhelming and God feels distant, tune into Psalm 77 and listen to the soundtrack of lament.       Enjoyed the message?

As we continue our series through the Psalms, we have seen God's heart for humanity for his people to be blessed on his terms. Psalm 1 & 2 speaks on how we are to be blessed as we walk on the path towards and with God. Psalm 32, however, tells us what to do when we find ourselves off this blessed path. Confession is acknowledging that our path away from the LORD is sinful, while God's way with the LORD leads to life. Confession is not a beatdown but given to us by God to be a blessing. So let's...2022-07-2533 minCityBridge Community Church83 // Psalm 2: PerspectiveTeacher: Derek Mathews. What do you do when you see the chaos of our culture? In Psalm 2, the Psalmist looked up to the one truly in control over the chaos. When the world feels like it is bearing down on you, it is easy to be consumed by fear. Yet, in those moments, God calls us to look up, above the chaos, to Him. When we do, we can have confidence, compassion, and courage no matter the chaos around us.       Enjoyed the message?

CityBridge Community Church81 // Family WeekendTeacher: Andre Samson. Welcome to the Family Weekend! This week we brought the Kids ministry to the main stage and got a taste of what our kids experience each week. Songs, dancing, skits, and the gospel is presented. This week we talked through the key idea of responsibility by looking at the parable of the talents. Responsibility is simply doing what God has called you to do. God has given us different gifts (time, talents, and treasure) to steward for his glory. When we are responsible for what God has given us, it is for our good as we...2022-07-0425 min

So we look to the farmer, the prophets, and Christ to grow in our ability to suffer well as we wait for our salvation to come.    Enjoyed the message?

CityBridge Community Church78 // James: Arrogant & CondemnedTeacher: Jeff Parker. If you want to know how you are doing in your walk with Jesus, take a quick look at how you spend your time and what you spend your money on. Planning and profits are not sins, but presumption is. When we omit God from our time and money, we fall into the self-focused sin of finding security in our plans and money. Putting God in the center allows us to walk in the freedom that God has for us.    Enjoyed the message? Rate us ââââď¸â and leave a review on Apple Podcasts.  ...2022-06-1344 min
CityBridge Community Church77 // James: Humbled & ReconciledTeacher: Rob Barry. "If my kids would just...", "If my spouse would just...", "If my boss would just..." When there is conflict, we naturally blame others. We think outside of ourselves and blame others. But what if the problem isn't outside of you but within you? What if you are the problem? In James 4, we see that the root of our conflicts is a selfish desire to be our little god. So if the problem is within us, then the answer must be something outside of us. God deeply loves his people and desires them to have life abundantly...2022-06-0640 min
CityBridge Community Church76 // James: Tamed & Wise TongueTeacher: Derek Mathews. Sticks and stones can break your bones, but words can build up or break down. Not quite the motto we were told growing up. But according to James (and our own experiences), words are immensely powerful. They can bring life and blessing to those around us or break down and destroy. How we use our words matters. But nobody can tame their tongue. We need something outside of us to transform what is within us so that what comes out of us are words of life.    Enjoyed the message? Rate us ââââď¸â and leave a review o...2022-05-3038 min
CityBridge Community Church75 // James: Faith & WorksTeacher: Jeff Parker. Martin Luther famously said, "Faith alone saves, but the faith that saves is never alone." As believers, our faith is shown by our good works in the LORD. This does not make us righteous before God, but it shows our righteousness before others. Faith without works is a dead faith, but a faith that gets to work blesses all those around you.    Enjoyed the message?

CityBridge Community Church74 // James: Liking Some & Loving AllTeacher: Jeff Parker. It is human nature to show favoritism to those most like you or most likely to benefit you. This is the sin of partiality. It is inconsistent and unbalanced love. James will give us four warnings about partiality as we continue our series. Finally, he will end with an invitation to truly love the way God loves. So who in your life have you thought less of and need to love more?

When we do, it transforms our lives as we love others in his name.    E...2022-05-0942 min

Some of those trials come from the broken world we live in, and some come from our own brokenness. During trials, we are called to be steadfast in Jesus as we rely on him for wisdom. As trials come, temptation is soon to follow. When we remember the goodness of God, temptations and trials can become triumphs in our lives.    Enjoyed the message?

As we celebrate his past victory over sin and death, we look forward to his future victory as well. His first victory over death was his own resurrection. His full and final victory over death is raising to life all who would believe in him. God has won the victory for you and wants his victory for you. This is why we sing and celebrate the risen King. He has won, and he will ultimately win again.   ...2022-04-1832 min
CityBridge Community Church69 // Good Friday: The Anger of JesusTeacher: Kyle Kaigler. What makes Jesus angry? Several times in the gospels, Jesus becomes angry. Yet, each time we see Jesus angry, it is always out of compassion for people. The compassion of Jesus leads to his anger over sin and always leads to action. When Jesus sees something hurting people, he always moves towards that hurt. When Jesus saw the ultimate thing hurting people, sin, he took our sin on himself. Our sin led to the death of Christ. As we sit in the darkness of our sin, the diamond of Jesus shines all the brighter.      2022-04-1618 min

Many of us have false views in our minds when it comes to eternity. God's heart is to create a space where He and His people can dwell together forever. It is a life without death, sin, weakness, or end. You will have real experiences, with a real body, on a real earth with our resurrected Christ. The resurrected life is a life with God in which we will be full of joy, full of peace, full of...2022-04-1137 min
CityBridge Community Church67 // Fully Alive: The Reason for the ResurrectionTeacher: Derek Mathews. Would you say your faith is firm or fragile? Many of us have a firm foundation in Christ, but our faith can feel a lot more fragile when our beliefs get intellectually or situationally challenged. God wants you to have a firm foundation in who Jesus is and what he has done. He has rooted our faith in the historical reality of the resurrection of Christ. When we see this, we see just how important the resurrection of Christ is and just how much of an impact it has on everything in our lives. If Jesus...2022-04-0438 min

This is the clearest and most concise theology that Paul gives to impact of the resurrection of Christ, both now and forever. In the first 11 verses, we see the purpose, the proof, and the power of the gospel message. God wants you to find life in him. That only comes by being fully alive in the...2022-03-2840 min
CityBridge Community Church65 // Hope in SufferingTeacher: Josh Wilhite. Suffering is a part of life. It is easy to grow weary when hardships are all around you. Yet, hope is the anchor in the midst of suffering. Where do you find hope in the hardships of life? When we walk with Christ, we have a living hope, a proven hope, as we are called to have an active hope. No matter the trial, Christ can take hardships and make them pathways of holiness as we hold onto hope in Him alone.      Enjoyed the message?

CityBridge Community Church63 // Worldview: Money and PossessionsTeacher: Kyle Kaigler. Maybe more than anything, money and possessions reveal your heart. The world, flesh, and even the Christian culture pull us into believing that more earthly wealth or material goods will satisfy us. God is in the business of creating dependence and can use money and possessions to convict us to where we truly find our hope, joy, and dependency. Money and possessions are not evil. They are simply a tool that can be used to make much of you or much of God and the advancement of the gospel. The choice is yours. So let's take...2022-03-0738 min
CityBridge Community Church62 // Worldview: Perspective on PoliticsTeacher: Kyle Kaigler. What is the right perspective on politics? It's easy to forget a biblical lens when viewing politics when everything today is drenched in a political perspective. As believers, we must remember that God is sovereign, we have one king (though we live in two kingdoms), God created government to promote good and restrain evil, the government, church, and family have distinct roles, and the enemy would love nothing more than for Christians to put their trust in government and not God. When we have this perspective, we can examine our own hearts but also engage well...2022-02-2841 min

CityBridge Community Church59 // Worldview: Partiality and RacismTeacher: Rob Barry. How do you see groups of people? We have a tendency to group people based on externals and then assign stereotypes and value. This is the sin of partiality. Partiality is a rebellion against God. As Christians, we are called not to show preference based on externals but to serve people since they are made in God's image. God is creating a new family of God with people of all backgrounds, ethnicities, classes, and cultures. As we mimic God in reaching all people, the church becomes the beautiful mosaic it was meant to be. Â Â Â Â 2022-02-0740 min

People then become a problem to solve, a point to validate your worldview or a pathway to your own self-advancement.

God wants you to see himself, yourself, others, and the world around you in a way that brings life. Only when we see Him rightly can we see the world rightly.
