Elevating Gospel Hope • Weekly Sermons from First Baptist New Orleans

God Is After Your Heart

God is after the same thing today that He was 2,000 years ago: your heart. When He gets your heart, He gets all of you. But if He doesn't get your heart, He gets none of you. Are you going through religious motions while your heart remains distant from God? Discover why we cannot cleanse ourselves from sin and where true hope is found.

Whatever It Takes

Four friends literally tore through a roof to get their paralyzed friend to Jesus. What would you do to bring someone to Christ? Their radical approach reveals five game-changing priorities that can transform how we do ministry today. Are you willing to do whatever it takes?

Go In Missions

Ever wonder why God blesses you? It's not just for your benefit. Psalm 67 reveals that we're blessed so that God's ways may be known throughout the earth. The gospel you've received isn't meant to be hoarded—it's the antidote everyone around you desperately needs. Are you using your blessings to bless others?

Where Are You Going?

Ever feel like you're following God's directions but ending up on a road that leads nowhere? Jesus' disciples felt the same way when He told them victory would come through suffering and death. Sometimes the path to breakthrough looks like breakdown. What if your greatest defeat is actually setting up your greatest victory?

Humility Revealed

True humility isn't about performing goodness - it's about recognizing our desperate need for grace. What does your prayer life reveal about your heart?
