Lifepoint Church - Messages From The Riverdale Campus

For many who witnessed Jesus, seeing still was not believing. Do you have a hard time believing in something you can't see? How can you strengthen your faith? Looking at John 12:1–13

Vision Sunday – Pat’s 25th Anniversary Matthew 28:19-20, Mark 16:20, Luke 24:45-49, John 20:21-22, Acts 1:8, Psalm 46:10, Habakkuk 2:14, Luke 15:4,10

The purpose of the Parent/Child relationship is to make Jesus known. The parent’s role is to bring up and nourish a child through instruction and discipline. Not one or the other, but both always. Discipline should be corrective, not destructive. That means it ought to always be done in love, not anger, as an extension of nourishing our kids.

As a husband, it’s your job to help your wife feel confident. She needs to know she’s your standard of beauty. My House Vol 2 Week 5

Being the spiritual leader of your family is the toughest job your husband will ever have. Encourage him to spend personal time in the Word, talk about Scripture with him, pray with and for him. My House Vol 2 Week 4

Let’s talk about the role hospitality plays in our family’s pursuit of the glory of God.

Conflict — Matthew 18:15-22 If you have a relationship, you're going to have conflict. Getting our mind around Jesus’ teaching on conflict resolution is critical to the health of our marriages, the good of our kids, and the witness to our neighbors.

We have to build marriage in the foundation of the grace of Jesus Christ, and intentionally apply God's word in marriage.

Col 3:9-14, Gen 2:18, Acts 2:44-46, Heb 10:24-25

Most people love gifts at Christmas, but the best gift ever was God's gift of his Son, the greatest demonstration of God’s unconditional love. John 3:16, 1 John 2:15-16, 2 Corinthians 13:11

Would you rather "feel" joy...or "have" joy? There's only one way to lasting joy and that's Jesus.

"Just a little bit more..." will never bring you peace. Only Jesus, the Prince of Peace, can.

"Just a little bit more..." will never bring you peace. Only Jesus, the Prince of Peace, can.

Why did God announce the savior's birth to lowly shepherds? To give us hope and clearly communicate that His salvation is for ALL people, not just the religious, wealthy, and sanitized. This should bring great hope to those of us who feel insignificant.

Most people come to church because of the influence and invitation of a trusted friend. So your strategy should be to invest in people by building intentional relationships for the sake of eternity.

God didn’t just establish giving for the sake of the church. He established giving for His people so we’ll be generous, and so we can have money without money having us.

Having money is a blessing. Money having you is a curse.

Lust and sexual sin creates so much pain and guilt, while removing our spiritual vitality and strength. But the gospel restores our strength because it offers cleansing forgiveness. It restores the joy of your salvation because we realize it hasn’t changed our standing as children of God.

Our greatest identity is not in our job; our greatest identity is in Jesus.

True Words bring life. Lying words brings death.
