Sermons at Granite Creek Community Church

"Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you..." said Jesus to his disciples. So, how do we get peace and why are our lives filled with anxiety? Find out the secret to this gift from Jesus, the very thing the Apostle Paul discovered in his life, as Pastor Josh uncovers the hard truths to this fruit of the spirit.

Week two of our "Spiritual Formation" series.

In beginning our new series, "The Building Blocks of Spiriual Formation," we jump into the first "fruit of the spirt," LOVE. What does God mean when he wants us to bear the fruit of love? It is quite different than what our society teaches and offers. It is better, bigger and deeper.

Go. Jesus has commanded us to go out into the world and MAKE DISCIPLES. We are not to cloister up together as Christians and simply look at the dirt of the world in despair. Nor are we to just embrace every sin and call it okay. We are called to live our lives, making and growing relationships, being different, showing love without compromise, changing culture, and being the salt and light of the world. Go.

God started it, Jesus leads it, Holy Spirit empower it.

Joshua Woodcook starts off our first night of our study of revelation.

God will give us more than we can handle... Wrong! We often hear and are told this as a truth, but that is not what scripture says. God tells us that we will not be TEMPTED beyond what we can bear. But, He tells us that we will face trials while here on earth. God wants us to trust him and lean on Him in trials. In order for us to do this there must be TENSION.

We can forever be confident that the Lord is good and He is good to us. Why then do so many bad things happen to us and in the world? We will have trouble while we are here on earth, but we cannot let that affect our knowledge that GOD IS GOOD.
