8/24/25 Sermon: "What Are My Gifts?" (Discovering Your Gifts, part 10)

Have you ever wondered if your unique gifts could be the missing piece in God's grand design? In a powerful message, this Sunday, I will unpack how spiritual gifts are more than just volunteer roles—they're divine assignments for building Christ's church. Through personal stories of family growth and community impact, the sermon challenges the stark reality that while 85% of believers know about spiritual gifts, nearly half don't recognize their own. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 12, the sermon reveals how discovering your spiritual gifts isn't just about serving—it's about experiencing deeper intimacy with God and authentic community. Don't miss this transformative message that could unlock your divine purpose and help you find your place in God's unfolding story. This Sunday you will have the opportunity to discover what your Spiritual Gifts are!!   Key principles from this Sunday’s Sermon: •           Gifts are for building up the Body of Christ •           They should be exercised with humility •           All gifts must be used in an orderly way •           The ultimate purpose is to glorify God and draw others to Jesus   "Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms." (1 Peter 4:10) Grace and Peace, Stephen

08/17/25 Sermon: "The Gifts of Prophecy & Tongues" (Discovering Your Gifts, pt.9)

Understanding the Gifts of Prophecy and Tongues   In my upcoming sermon this Sunday, we will explore the profound spiritual gifts of prophecy and tongues, emphasizing their roles in edifying the Body of Christ. The gift of prophecy is a divine tool for delivering God’s will to His people, characterized by clarity, boldness, and authority. It is meant to strengthen, encourage, and comfort believers, guiding them closer to Jesus and expanding His Kingdom. As Paul instructs in 1 Corinthians 14:3, prophecy is not just about foretelling but about uplifting and empowering those around us.   Prophets are called to live by example, embodying God’s truths in their lives. They present God’s truths through careful study and apply them with extraordinary depth for the benefit of the church. Importantly, prophecy must be tested to ensure it aligns with God’s will and is not mixed with personal emotions or desires.   The sermon will also touch on the gift of tongues, which allows believers to connect deeply with the Holy Spirit, transcending human language in prayer and worship. This gift, first demonstrated at Pentecost, serves to spread the Gospel across cultures. However, it must be used with humility and discernment, ensuring it honors God and benefits others.   As we continue to explore these gifts, let us seek to use them in ways that build up the church, draw people to Christ, and reflect God’s love and order. May we be Kingdom builders, allowing God to light a fire through us for His glory.   Gift of Prophecy: * The gift of prophecy involves delivering God's will to the Body of Christ through the Holy Spirit. * Prophets are encouragers who guide the church in the direction God has set. * Prophecy is meant for believers and is essential for the edification, encouragement, and comfort of the church. * It involves speaking God's truth with clarity, boldness, and authority. * Prophecies should be tested to ensure they align with God's truth and are not mixed with personal emotions. * The purpose of prophecy is to strengthen, encourage, and comfort, leading people to Jesus and expanding His Kingdom. Role of the Prophet * Prophets live by example, allowing God's truths to control their lives. * They present God's truths through careful study and apply them with deep understanding for the benefit of the church. * Prophets provide clarity and guidance, focusing on the "right and wrong" of situations. Gift of Tongues * They speak boldly and directly, with a fear of God prompting them to speak when led by the Holy Spirit. * The gift of tongues involves a deep connection to the Holy Spirit, often experienced as praying or worshiping beyond human language. * It can be used for personal prayer and worship or in public settings like church services. * At Pentecost, it was the miraculous ability to speak in foreign languages to spread the Gospel. * The gift should be approached with humility and discernment, used to honor God and benefit others. * In public settings, if there is no interpreter, those with the gift should speak to themselves and God to maintain order and focus on worship. Overall, these spiritual gifts are meant to build up the church, honor God, and lead others to Christ. They should be exercised with humility, discernment, and a focus on edification and unity within the Body of Christ.   Grace and Peace, Stephen

8/10/25 Sermon: "The Gifts of Apostleship & Evangelism"

Discovering Your Gifts Part 8: The Gifts of Apostleship and Evangelist  1 Corinthians 12:27-31 Ephesians 4:11 What if the secret to experiencing the fullness of God in your life is just waiting for you to receive it? In this week’s sermon, I will highlight a profound encounter between the Apostle Paul and believers in Ephesus, where he asks, "Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?" This pivotal moment invites reflection on the power that believers can access beyond mere belief—specifically, the baptism of the Holy Spirit. In my sermon, I passionately argue for a distinction between initial faith and this empowering experience, encouraging believers to embrace what Jesus promised: a continual outpouring of divine presence. With a call to action, the sermon urges everyone to earnestly seek this promised gift, admonishing that surrendering to the Holy Spirit is not just for the chosen few but for all who are desperate for change and renewal. Are you ready to embrace this challenge and unlock the gifts of apostleship and evangelism in your life? This is your moment to seek, to believe, and to receive! ----------------------------------------------------------------- This Sunday, many people will start returning to church from a busy summer. For most, school has started back, and routines are under way. Is attending church really that important? Sharing in fellowship and worship fosters the spiritual growth that a solitary faith practice often cannot fully provide. Attending church is more than a ritual; it enriches our walk with God and strengthens our connection to a community of believers. Hebrews 10:24-25 reminds us, "And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching."  Being part of a church family offers opportunities for mutual encouragement, accountability, and spiritual edification. When we gather to worship, whether singing praises, studying scripture, or simply sharing life, we create a space where God’s presence dwells. This collective experience of God transforms our lives in ways that private worship cannot replicate. Beyond personal growth, church attendance equips us to live out our faith more meaningfully. Listening to sermons, participating in service projects, and engaging in small groups broaden our understanding of God’s word and encourages us to apply it.  We are reminded that faith, while personal, is never meant to be private. Acts 2:42 illustrates the early church's model, saying, "They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer."  Life is not without struggles, and the community formed in church provides strength when we are weary. Joining others in prayer and worship fosters hope and resilience. Galatians 6:2 urges us to "Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ." Such shared faith experiences shape us profoundly, reminding us that we are never alone.  Attending church deepens our relationship with God and with others. It is a source of renewal and encouragement, enabling us to persevere in faith and extend God’s love to the world.   I hope and pray that you make gathering with your church family a priority as you continue growing in Him. Grace and Peace, Stephen

08/03/25 Sermon: "The Gift of Miracles"

Discovering Your Gifts Part 7:  The Gift of Miracles 1 Corinthians 12:7-11, 28-31; Hebrews 2:1-4 In this Sunday’s sermon, I will delve into the spiritual gift of miracles, emphasizing how these gifts reveal God's presence in our lives. By examining Jesus' miracles, we will see how witnessing extraordinary acts can sometimes lead to hardened hearts if not accompanied by genuine faith. This sermon urges us to reject the notion that miracles are merely transactions for our demands; instead, they are divine acts meant to inspire gratitude and deepen our relationship with God. Through poignant stories, such as Joni Eareckson Tada’s, who recognized God's blessings despite facing life-altering challenges, we will be inspired to shift our perspectives and appreciate the miracles in our daily lives. I will call on the congregation to embrace prayer as a transformative connection with God, igniting a fervent reliance on divine help within the church community. Considering this, the sermon challenges us: Are we ready to see and acknowledge the miracles around us? Let’s not wait for grand gestures; seek God with faith and expect to find Him working wonders every day. Grace & Peace, Stephen

07/27/25 Sermon: "The Gifts of Leadership & Administration"

This Sunday we will continue our transformative journey into the heart of spiritual gifts, focusing on the gifts of Leadership and Administration. Are you aware that the spiritual gift of leadership is more than just giving orders—it's a divine enablement that empowers individuals to rally others around God’s vision. In my sermon, this Sunday, I will dive deep into how effective leadership can transform a complacent, inward-focused church into a vibrant, outward-focused community (thankfully, MC is not inward focused). Drawing inspiration from biblical references like Ezekiel and Acts, I will emphasize that true growth happens not through comparison with other congregations, but through harnessing our unique spiritual gifts to invite others into fellowship. With exciting initiatives like campus renovations and community engagement events, the sermon encourages us to roll up our sleeves and actively participate in this transformational journey. I want to remind you that faith is a continuous journey. It is vital we be engaged in small groups, Bible studies, and ministry opportunities beyond Sunday services. By joining this mission to spread God's love and truth, you'll not only help Misty Creek thrive but also experience personal spiritual growth.  Grace and Peace, Stephen
