Faith for Today and Tomorrow - #7 Past, Present and Future

Faith for Today and Tomorrow - #7 Past, Present and Future

Faith for Today and Tomorrow - #7 Past, Present and Future. In Acts chapter 20 we find Paul, towards the end of his life, meeting with the Ephesian elders. He is expressing his heart to these dear friends in whom he had poured his life into realizing that this would be the last time they would see each other this side of heaven.

In this final message of the series on Faith for Today and Tomorrow, we join pastor Steve as he says goodbye to his friends at Wayside Chapel after faithfully serving there for 34 years.

As you press on in your life and ministry calling we hope that you will be encouraged by the example of both the Apostle Paul and pastor Steve to finish well in all that God has entrusted to you.

Faith for Today and Tomorrow - #6 He is the Great I AM

Faith for Today and Tomorrow - #6 He is the Great I AM

Faith for Today and Tomorrow - #6 He is the Great I AM. Most people around the world would recognize the historical existence of Jesus Christ. Some would consider him to be a great teacher, others an influencial prophet of old.

But the real question that all of us will be asked to answer upon the end of this life is do we believe that Jesus was God as He absolutely claimed to be?

In this next teaching on the Gospel of John, pastor Steve looks at 8 of the great I AM statements that Jesus Christ makes that unmistakably express His claim to divinity as the Son of God.

Faith for Today and Tomorrow - #4 We have a Fruitful Fellowship

Faith for Today and Tomorrow - #4 We have a Fruitful Fellowship

#4 We have a Fruitful Fellowship - What does fruitfulness look like in your life? Would you define it in terms of your possessions, your accomplishments, your family?  Our lives are meant to be fruitful, but we can only experience real fruitfulness when we are dependent upon the true vine, Jesus Christ. The good news is that this is how we were designed to be as we abide in Christ and He in us.

In this 4th message from John 15:1-11, pastor Steve will look at what it means to abide in Christ and see the fruit of God’s Spirit in us as a result.

Faith for Today and Tomorrow - #3 We Have a Faithful Friend

Faith for Today and Tomorrow - #3 We Have a Faithful Friend

#3 We Have a Faithful Friend - Have you ever struggled to forgive someone? Is genuine peace something that you have given up hope on having in your life? Do you still long for an intimate relationship with God?

If so, then you will be encouraged by the message coming from John, chapter 14:16-31. Pastor Steve will look at the Person, Presence, Purpose and Peace of the Holy Spirit sent by God the Father, Christ in us.

Faith for Today and Tomorrow - #2 We Have A Forever Father

#2 We Have A Forever Father - In this next message by pastor Steve, he talks about the impact of having a Forever Father as he continues in his study of John 14:7-15.

In the midst of a troubled world, we need to understand that We have a good, good Father. He has been revealed through Christ and He remains in control of all things. He reigns forever and His plans are ultimately for our good.

Faith for Today and Tomorrow - #1 We have a Fabulous Future

Faith for Today and Tomorrow - #1 We have a Fabulous Future

#1 We have a Fabulous Future - If we have learned anything from the challenges that the world has faced in the last couple of years, it is that we live in uncertain times of great change. In the midst of growing suffering and loss, where do we find hope? In the Upper Room Discourse found in John 14 - 16, Jesus discloses that, even though He will be leaving his disciples, this is just the beginning.  His words fill them with hope and a renewed faith.

In this series entitled “Faith for Today and Tomorrow” pastor Steve will explore where the disciples of Jesus found renewed faith in the midst of the tremendously difficult times in which they lived. We find this in the upper room discourse found in John chapters 14 and 15.

I think it is true that we often reminisce about the past, but too often fail to consider the importance of our future. So you’ll be encouraged as I was by pastor Steve’s teaching on John chapter 14:1-6 and the knowledge that in Christ, “We have a Fabulous Future.”
