We have liberty by faith in Jesus, not by the works of our flesh, but faith that is sincere works and is powered by His love. We have Liberty to love!

This Memorial Day we remember those who died to give us liberty. They honor Jesus, who died to give us liberty from the law, sin, and death. Liberty is not freedom to do what you want, but freedom to live as God intends us. We can’t do that through the law, only through the liberty He gave us in Christ Jesus.

This message explores the biblical idea of the “Law of Liberty” through James 2:8–13, focusing on how believers are called to live lives marked by mercy, love, and obedience to God.

How can we say we walk with someone when we walk in the opposite direction that they walk? Many salad bar the word of God only obeying what they like but is that really a walk of faith? In today's message, we look at what it really takes to walk in relationship with God!

It was once said “I don’t know who discovered water but it probably was not a fish.” Sometimes words can be so common place we miss the depth of their meaning. Every word of Jesus is significant and sometimes His words become so common place around church we need to rediscover their meaning so we don’t miss their richness as we recite them. In today’s message, we will look deeply into Jesus words, “This cup that is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood.” There is an ocean of meaning in these words come swim in it with me!

Do you believe in God or do you believe God? If you believe God it will change your identity and your eternity. In today’s message learn how God grew a man of faith!

Paul introduces Timothy and Epaphroditus in Philippians 2:19-30 as examples of ordinary people whose lives were shaped by the grace of Jesus into lives of genuine concern, faithful service, humility, and sacrifice. Rather than asking, "What can I get?" they lived by asking, "How can I serve Christ by serving others?" The message challenges us to allow God's grace to reshape our time, relationships, resources, gifts, and priorities so that our lives increasingly reflect Jesus.

Philippians 2:12–18 challenges believers to live out the salvation God has already given them—not to earn salvation, but as a response to God’s work within them. Paul teaches that because God is actively working in us, our lives should be marked by humble obedience, gratitude rather than grumbling, and a willingness to serve others even when nobody is watching.

In Philippians 2:1–11, Paul challenges believers to allow Christ to transform not only what they do, but how they think, especially in a culture that encourages self-promotion, comparison, status, and personal achievement.

This is part of our series titled: Inner Life, a journey through the book of Philippians. This message is based on Philippians 1:26-30
