Marysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesWhat Does it Mean to be a Christian? - Part 8 || Ed BeesonHave you ever felt like not praying? We go through moments of wondering, “why would he bother listening to me?” We may even go through moments of being mad at Him. Sometimes we don’t have the words to say because we’ve already said everything that we can think of. Today we look at Acts 12 to give us some encouragement during these moments.2025-07-2810 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesWhat does it mean to be a Christian - Part 7 || Ed BeesonIt’s always a challenge to teach kids how to share and it always seems like the first word toddlers learn to say is, “NO!” followed by a close second which is the word, “MINE!” Children will do that in an attempt to be in control of their life. This is also the case for those who are younger in Christ! How do we overcome this and mature as believers?2025-07-2130 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesWhat Does it Mean to be a Christian - Part 6 || Ed BeesonSometimes things happen that we don't see coming. In fact, the Bible is filled with stories of people who were caught off guard by God. The question is, are you committed to follow Him, even if what He asks you is shocking? 2025-07-1329 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesWhat Does it Mean to be a Christian - Part 5 || Ed BeesonNo doubt there would be as many descriptions as there are people in attendance! Looking at Acts 9:31, "The church had peace throughout Judea, Galilee, and Samaria, and it became stronger as the believers lived in the fear of the Lord. And with the encouragement of the Holy Spirit, it also grew in numbers." This, of course, sounds wonderful. We look at Acts 9 to see how this happened!2025-07-0631 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesWhat Does it Mean to Be a Christian - Part 4 || Ed BeesonWelcome to summer, when families make vacation plans? Like Clark Griswold, many of those family trips will be to Amusement Parks. Regardless of the destination, riding the Roller Coaster is almost a rite of passage. You could say the same thing about learning what it means to follow Jesus! Just like Roller Coasters, following Jesus has a lot of ups, downs & unexpected curves.2025-06-3032 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesWhat Does it Mean to be a Christian - Part 3 || Ed BeesonDo you remember the phone number you had as a kid? The older we get, the harder it is to remember important things. The most important thing is to remember what it really means to be commit yourself to God.2025-06-2332 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesWhat Does it Mean to be a Christian? - Part 2 || Ed BeesonIt’s Graduation Season, where graduates are frequently asked, “What do you want to do with your life?” Good question. The bigger question is about how we are to live? Peter encourages Christians to remember that people who don’t believe are living all around you. Live such good lives that they will see the good you do, and give glory to God on the day when Christ comes again. 2025-06-1530 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesWhat Does it Mean to be a Christian? || Ed BeesonPeople have a lot of different ideas about what it means to be a Christian. The big question is why don’t we see how being a Christian changed the life of people in the Bible?2025-06-0836 minMarysville 3CU Church Messages and MusicMarysville 3CU Church Messages and MusicAI in our Christian WalkThis message provides some insights into the intersection of AI and our Christian Walk.

Where does this lead us? How do we overcome this. Our special guest speaker Chris Clinger explores this as we go into Romans 12.2024-07-2822 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesYou Gotta Live Your Faith - Part 3 || Ed BeesonIt can be hard to live your faith, when your heart’s been broken! So much of the Christian faith can be summed up by the word “love”. But how can I live my faith and love others or for that matter, allow myself to be loved when the situations of life have hardened me?2024-07-2133 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesWhy Do We Need The Church - Part 5 || Ed BeesonEvery Christian church since the days of Jesus has practiced baptism in one form or another.  But how and why they baptize is frequently done differently.  Some baptize infants and others baptize adults. Some sprinkle, some pour & others dunk you like a donut!  But underlying this we cannot escape the question, “Why does the church think baptism is such a big deal?”2024-06-2329 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesFollow Me - Part 2 || Ed BeesonPhilippians 2:6 identifies humility as a core value for every Christian. We see this ultimately displayed in the life of Christ. From the humble beginnings of the manger to the death on the cross, Jesus demonstrated humility like no one else. Today we explore Paul’s words, “Have the same attitude toward one another that Christ Jesus had, who, although He was God, did not demand and cling to His rights as God…”2024-04-1439 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday Messages247365 - Part 6 || Ed BeesonDespite our determination to be better, desire doesn't always translate to Everyday Life. The good news is that there's a place in God's Family for Everyday People. We explore further in this message what it means to be a Christian 24 Hours a day, 7 Days a week, 365 Days a year.2023-06-1224 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesWhat Kingdom Do You Serve? || Anthony WhitleyThere's a battle going on and as C.S. Lewis put it, "The world for the Christian is ‘Enemy-occupied territory’". Are we truly chasing after God or are we getting caught in the ways of this world?Show less2023-05-0133 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesDon't Take the Bait - Part 5 || Ed BeesonPride is destructive, difficult to detect, and Proverbs tells us that the higher you lift yourself up in pride, the harder you’ll fall in disgrace.  In other words, the bigger the ego, the harder the fall.  It’s very easy to become obsessed with ourselves but how do we avoid the trap of pride in a culture filled with “selfies and self-help?”2021-08-2236 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesDon't Take the Bait - Part 4 || Ed BeesonNo matter how people may try to portray it, no one has ever lived a perfect life without messing up.  But the devil will try to get us to take the bait of shame or guilt knowing how it will impact our faith in God and our walk with Him. Look at how Adam and Eve walked fully exposed to God without shame before sin came into play.  This week we look at how we overcome these feelings of guilt and shame.2021-08-1539 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesDon't Take the Bait - Part 3 || Ed BeesonAs Christians we know we’re supposed to be forgiving, but what does that mean?  There’s a difference between being patient and forbearing vs. being passive-aggressive.  In this message, we look at the prophet Elijah and his running in fear from Jezebel.  So many times, we try to convince ourselves that running, and hiding is the right thing, but it eventually leads to even greater heartache.  2021-08-0843 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesDon't Take the Bait - Part 2 || Ed BeesonThe bait of Revenge - It’s right to want justice, but it’s wrong to want to take revenge. This seems contradictory in our natural minds. We often think, “If I don’t make it right… who will?”. How do we approach this change in mindset and what does Jesus have to say about it?2021-08-0144 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesDont Take The Bait - Part 1 || Ed BeesonWe are in dangerous times and our battle is spiritual. Our enemy likes to set traps to get us off track and away from what God is trying to do in us. He often uses our relationships in these attacks and in this timely message we take a look at the trap of offense. What do we do when we feel offended?2021-07-2540 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesWhat About (overcoming doubt) - Part 9 || Ed BeesonThis is the final message of our series “What About (Overcoming Doubt)”. There will come a day when we stand before God’s throne & all our questions will be answered, but as long as we’re in this life, we will always have more questions than answers. In this how do we become a better doubter?2021-07-1845 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesWhat About (overcoming doubt) - Part 8 || Ed BeesonWHY IS CREDIBILITY SO CRUCIAL? As people observe us in life, our faith is seen as REAL & GENUINE.  Many people reject faith, not because the arguments of Atheists are so compelling, but because the HYPOCRISY of Christians is so repulsive!  In this message we take a good look at hypocrisy, how it impacts other along with taking a good look at our own walk and not letting the hypocrisy of others impact us.2021-07-1140 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesWhat About (overcoming doubt) - Part 7 || Ed BeesonThe world tries to present us with so many options and variations for everything including the truth.  Especially the truth of God.  This leaves us with questions like; Is Jesus the only way to heaven? What about other religions? What about people who have never heard of God, Jesus, or the Bible?  We look at these questions and find out what God has to say about all of this.2021-07-0444 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesWhat About (overcoming doubt) - Part 6 || Ed BeesonA lot of our questions about God aren’t necessarily centered around His existence as much as it is around his presence. Questions such as, “Where is God?” and “Why doesn’t he show up for me?” The thing we need to remember through these times is that God’s silence is not an indication of God’s absence. We take a good look at how and why there are these moments when it seems that God is being silent with us.2021-06-2742 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesWhat About (overcoming doubt) - Part 5 || Ed BeesonCan you be a person of faith, while at the same time be someone who values objective science? A lot of people assume that what the Bible teaches & what science has discovered is incompatible. Is this actually true? We take a good look at these questions and the nature of God in this part 5 of our series “What About (Overcoming Doubt)".2021-06-2033 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesWhat About (overcoming doubt) - Part 4 || Ed BeesonIf God is supposed to be unchanging, why does it seem that the Old Testament seems so different from God in the New Testament?  After all, the God of the New Testament is all about grace, peace, and love.  Whereas the God of the Old Testament seems to be more extreme and harsher.  We take a good look at these questions and the nature of God in this part 4 of our series “What About (Overcoming Doubt).2021-06-1340 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesWhat About (overcoming doubt) - Part 3 || Ed BeesonWhat about Hell?  More to the point, “How could a loving God send people to Hell?”  This is a question that we have all struggled with at one point or another.  We do have to face the fact that God is loving… AND Holy.  Ed dives into this as we continue our “What About” series in this message, “What About Hell?” Service Date:  May 30, 20212021-06-0647 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesWhat About (overcoming doubt) - Part 2 || Ed BeesonWhen life gets hard, it leaves us with lots of questions… especially about God.  In our sermon series, “What About…” I’ll be talking about some of the doubts we wrestle with the most.  Today’s question is one of THE MOST OFTEN ASKED QUESTIONS: “Why does God allow EVIL?” 2021-05-3038 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesWhat About (overcoming doubt) - Part 1 || Ed BeesonLife is going to challenge faith with some very hard experiences and questions.  The church should be the place where you can ask life’s toughest questions. Genuine doubt does not invalidate faith… it authenticates our faith. In this new series, we look at this thing called “doubt” and how we overcome it in our walk of faith.2021-05-2344 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesGod of the Underdog || Jason FrischGod is for us! Yeah, that may be easy to say, but do we really believe it? When it appears that the odds are stacked against us do, we truly trust God in those circumstances? Why do we doubt? Jason dives into Judges 6 and looks at Gideon to answer these questions.2021-05-0946 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesResetting The Vision on Church (repeat) || Ed BeesonThis week as we transition to recording live services we decided to pull a message from last May, "Resetting The Vision On Church"  As quarantines start to lift how do we reset the church?

This includes our need to grow up. If we aren’t willing to acknowledge this, we are running the risk of operating in a “Peter Pan Syndrome” where we simply don’t want to grow up and remain a child in the way we behave. The only problem with this is that God is actually calling us to grow up. We dive into Paul’s letter to Timothy where he encourages him to live his life in a way that causes others to overlook h...2021-04-2531 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesCowboy Up! - Part 2 - Cowboy Up in our Relationships!One of the biggest challenges in our relationship with God is revealed in our relationships with each other.  After all, how can we love our God who we haven’t seen if we can’t love our brother who we have seen?  If we are to truly “Cowboy Up” this means that we need to do so in our relationships.  Join us as we dive into the book of Philemon to discuss this further!2021-04-1831 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesCowboy Up! - Part 1 - It's Our Turn To Cowboy Up!Jesus has put us on notice… Christianity is not for cowards! The Church back then faced the same things that we face today. The Church today is now in the crosshairs of culture. What do we do when the unthinkable happens? In the midst of rejection, betrayal, and persecution… it’s time to saddle up. It’s time to Cowboy Up!2021-04-1132 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesThe Resurrection of Jesus Proves That God Can Make Us Unshakeable - Easter Message || Ed BeesonThe resurrection of Jesus makes us unshakeable is the good news of Easter!  The only problem is that we don’t always feel unshakeable when unthinkable things happen.  How did Jesus coming, suffering, dying, and resurrection cause us to become unshakeable?  The simple message of Resurrection, Repentance, and Renewal.  You won’t want to miss this wrap-up to our “God Wants to Make Us Unshakeable” series.2021-04-0424 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesGod Promises To Make Us UnShakeable - Part 8 - When We Surrender to Jesus as Lord || Ed BeesonThis weekend we continue our “God Promises To Make Us Unshakable” with the message “When We Surrender to Jesus as Our Lord”.

Simply believing in God doesn’t make us free from these experiences. The difference is how those who truly believe process these experiences. This Sunday message we look at how our truly trusting the promises of God makes us unshakeable.2021-03-1430 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesGod Promises To Make Us UnShakeable - Part 5 - God's Word Gives Us Unshakeable Direction || Ed BeesonY2k, Anthrax, West Nile, Bird Flu, Financial Crisis, Mayan Calendar, and now Covid.  We have had fearful thoughts driven into us for the past 20 years and longer.  This Sunday, we continue our series, “God Wants to Make Us Unshakeable” with the message “God’s Word Gives Us Unshakeable Direction.”  Psalms 119:105 tells us that His word is a lamp unto our feet and a light unto our path.  What does that mean?  How does God’s word move us through an unshakeable path?2021-03-0731 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesPaul's Letter to the Church In Rome || Chris OrecchioIt may seem that a lot has changed over the years but if we look closely enough, we will see that the struggles that the early church faced are not all that different than what we face today. A lot of those struggles came from society externally and manifests inside the church. Chris takes us into Paul’s letter to the Romans to show us how history often repeats itself as we are still facing those same struggles.2021-02-2843 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesGod Promises To Make Us UnShakeable - Part 4 - God Is Working While We’re Waiting || Ed BeesonGod promises to make us unshakeable in our waiting.  So often we become consumed with worry and end up easily shaken, but God says that it doesn’t have to be that way.  But how do we truly wait on Him?2021-02-2125 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesGod Promises To Make Us UnShakeable - Part 3 - God Works All Things For My Good || Ed BeesonGod Promises to make us unshakeable.

However, God wants us to focus on what is good. But what does that mean? What exactly is the “good” that we are to be focusing on? And how do we do it? We hope to answer these questions as we dive into Micah for today’s message, “Fix Your Focus on What is Good”2021-01-0328 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesGod Has Come to Us || Ed BeesonThe message of Christmas is simply this, "God Has Come to Us!"  Why did He do that?  Why did Jesus come to the Earth?  Simply to be with us so that we can get to know God as He truly is.  This would be an impossible task for us to try to accomplish on our own.  The greatest gift exchange in History!2020-12-2720 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesChristmas Time Stories of the Future || Ed BeesonThis year, more than ever, we all need to be reminded of the story of Christmas. In this “Christmas Carol” message, “Christmas-time Stories of the Future” we take a good look at the future to ask the same question that Ebenezer Scrooge asked, “Is my future fixed, or can it be fixed?” In other words, is there any hope for me??2020-12-2026 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesChristmas Time Stories of the Present || Ed BeesonThe story of Christmas teaches us to be generous and good at being rich.  We shouldn't feel guilty... instead we should stay humble, trust in God to provide, know that joy in life comes from God, use our money for good, and practice generosity.  The Christmas Story ultimately teaches us that life is indeed better together.  So let's learn to love and be generous this Christmas. 2020-12-1332 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesChristmas Time Stories of the Past || Ed BeesonAfter the year we’ve had, We Need a Little Christmas!

Thanks For Nothing! || Ed Beeson2020 has left us emotionally drained with conversations of one COVID war story after another. Our lives have been turned upside down. Our normal realm of operating is nothing like it was last year at this time. If that wasn’t enough, we had to deal with a crazy spectacle of an election that makes very little sense to us. It leaves us this Thanksgiving with the thought “Give Thanks?? Thanks for nothing!” Regardless of our emotional drain, we are still called to “Give Thanks” but why??2020-11-2924 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesPolitics Through The Eyes of God - Part 6 - "How Do We Create Real Change?" || Ed BeesonIt seems that with every election we have this underlying desire to bring about change.

What do we do when people come against us? When they lie and gossip about us? How do we react and stay sane in the midst of that?  We look at Psalms 139 and like David, we can take comfort in the fact that...  Because He is “All-Knowing” - God knows WHO I am Because He is “All-Places” - God knows WHERE I’ve been, where I am & where I will be Because He is “All-Light” – God can be TRUSTED… Because He is my “Creator” - God knows WHY I am the way I am ...2020-10-0420 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesWhat Really Matters - The Things That Make Jesus Mad - Part 4 || Ed BeesonThis is the final session of this series, "The Things That Really Matter - What Made Jesus Mad."  We have learned that Jesus would get mad when insiders get in the way of outsiders, when people value rules over relationships, and when people value religion over grace.  This message talks about when people value guilt over forgiveness.  But what are we supposed to do to deal with guilt, denial, depression, and shame?2020-09-2729 minMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesMarysville Christian Church Sunday MessagesWhat Really Matters - The Things That Make Jesus Mad - Part 3 || Ed BeesonIt can change your life when someone shows you GRACE.
