This is a significant statement because it shows...2023-09-1734 minKingdom LifeThe Most Difficult Instrument to PlayPastor Chris discusses the difficulty of playing different instruments such as flute, oboe, harp, and pipe organ. The oboe requires incredible breath control and perfect conditioning, while the harp has 47 strings and seven-foot pedals.

The gift hinges on the notion...2023-09-0325 minKingdom LifeWrapping Up The ConversationPastor Chris's sermon centers on the profound conversation between Jesus and Nicodemus from the Gospel of John. Jesus highlights the scripture's message of salvation, emphasizing the importance of believing in Him for eternal life, while those who disbelieve are already condemned.

Concluding, Pastor Chris prays for those...2023-08-2839 minKingdom LifeThe New BirthIn this sermon, Pastor Chris focuses on the conversation between Jesus and Nicodemus in John 3:1-12. He emphasizes the importance of being "born again" or "born from above" as a necessary experience for anyone to enter the kingdom of God.

It is about humbly accepting our powerlessness to save ourselves and receiving the new life that Jesus offers through the Holy Spirit. Pastor Chris explains that being born again is not a result of our own efforts but a gracious work...2023-07-3037 minKingdom LifeReligion is Hazardous to Your HealthIn this sermon, Pastor Chris focuses on the interaction between Jesus and Nicodemus in John chapter three. He highlights that Nicodemus, a devoutly religious man, comes to Jesus seeking knowledge and acknowledges the signs that Jesus has performed as evidence of God's presence with Him. However, Jesus points out that true entry into the kingdom of God requires being "born again" or experiencing a spiritual rebirth through water and the Spirit. Pastor Chris emphasizes that being a Christian is not merely about religious actions or good works but rather receiving the gift of salvation through Jesus Christ...2023-07-2336 minKingdom LifeJesus Cleanses the TemplePastor Chris's sermon is based on the passage from the Gospel of John, chapter 2, which describes Jesus cleansing the temple in Jerusalem.

He emphasizes...2023-06-2528 minKingdom LifeLife of the PartyIn this episode of the Kingdom Life Podcast, Pastor Chris delves into the Wedding at Cana in Galilee, which marked the first of Jesus' signs. At this joyful event in the village of Cana, the wine runs out, prompting Mary to take the problem to Jesus. Jesus, although initially hesitant, responds to his mother's request.

The sermon...2023-05-2836 minKingdom LifeCan Anything Good Come Out Of NazarethPastor Chris explores the interaction between Jesus and Nathanael as recorded in the Gospel of John. Nathanael initially expresses doubt about anything good coming out of Nazareth, a despised place. Pastor Chris highlights the irony that Jesus, who came from Nazareth, was indeed the promised Messiah. He encourages listeners to reflect on their own tendencies to doubt or question if anything good can come out of certain situations. He emphasizes that even in the darkest circumstances, God is at work, and His promise in Romans 8:28 assures us that He can bring good out of all things for those who...2023-05-2130 minKingdom LifeMeditation on God's Word Inviting Others To Know The Hope Of Jesus Through Our Own Witness In the first chapter of the Gospel According to John, two of John’s disciples, Andrew and Philip, follow Jesus.

This conversation highlights the enthusiasm and excitement of Andrew and Philip in following Jesus, an...2023-05-0716 minKingdom LifeBringing Our Loved Ones to JesusPastor Chris’s sermon is a reflection on the Gospel of John, specifically chapter one, verses 40 to 51.

Andrew brings his brother Simon to Jesus, who becomes known as Peter, one of the most important apostles of the early Christian church. Philip similarly brings Nathanael to Jesus, who becomes a disciple. Pastor Chris notes that many Christians tend to keep their faith private and do not engage their non-believing friends and lo...2023-04-3031 minKingdom LifeGospel of John: A New NamePastor Chris discusses the story in the Bible where Jesus changes Simon's name to Peter, which signifies the role Peter will play in the establishment of the church. The speaker emphasizes that name changes in the Bible represent significant transformations in a person's life and that Jesus offers all people the opportunity to receive a new name in Him that reflects who they truly are as precious children of God. Pastor Chris encourages listeners to remain faithful and draw closer to Jesus to live more into their new name and become the person God has redeemed and called them...2023-04-2330 minKingdom LifeWhat Are You Seeking?The sermon explores the question of what we are seeking when we say we follow Jesus and come to church. Pastor Chris argues that this is a profound and personal question that we often overlook in the busyness of our daily lives. The risk of not asking ourselves this question is that we may end up like the man who spent his life climbing a ladder only to discover it was leaning against the wrong wall. Pastor Chris suggests several reasons why we may avoid asking ourselves this question. One reason is that we may have settled into a...2023-04-1630 min
