Sermon: Acting Lessons
Pastor Nick Daleo
How good of an actor are you? Are you good enough to fool your friends? Your family? Your peers? When it comes to the things of God, He’s not in need of good actors. He more interested in a real relationship. In this section of the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus will point out some things that we’ve become real good at with our acting skills. After pointing them out, He will go on to show us how we should be acting in our lives.
Sermon: Setting the Standard
Nick Mueller
The idea of perfection is something we are all familiar with throughout the course of our lives. But we can never be perfect. In today’s sermon from the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus sets the standard of righteousness by using 6 Old Testament laws. The important question today is; which standard will you choose to live your life by? The standards of the world or the standards illustrated by God?
Sermon: A Thriving Faith
Pastor Nick Daleo

Is it possible to take something like faith and continue to make it thrive? Or is faith a one shot deal for you? Do you say things like “yes I have faith but it’s not that strong”. Or have you said “my faith is not as good as others”. A strong faith takes work and nurturing. In this passage, Jesus gives us a quick way for us to gauge if our faith is in fact growing or just a stagnate faith. I don’t know about you but I want my faith to be a thriving faith, not another check box of things I believe in my life.
Sermon: Sunny & Salty Church
Pastor Nick Daleo

Did Jesus give us any idea of how to go about doing church? Well, of course He did, but boy have we gotten way off track. The church, and us personally, were given a very easy and specific way to operate. Yet we have clouded it all up with religious garbage. It’s time to get back to what Jesus intended for us and His church. Back to the basics. To be the salt and light of this earth.
Sermon: We Need To Do Better
Pastor Nick Daleo

The sermon on the mount is filled with short bursts of teachings straight from Jesus. These things should become part of your journey in faith as you grow and learn. They should shape the way you think, act and react. These things are also known as the Beatitudes. Why, because these things should be-your-attitude. This is week one of our sermon series called “Mountain Top”. Join us on this journey as we grow together in our faith with a whole new attitude.
Sermon: I Still Have Doubts
Pastor Nick Daleo

Is it ok to believe in Jesus and still have doubts? Absolutely, a resounding yes to that question. God can handle all your doubts. As a matter of fact, we should be a people who are challenged to bring our doubts to God’s word. When you learn to do that, you will come out on the other side of your doubts with a stronger faith. Join us for this special Easter sermon.
Sermon: What a Great Idea!
Pastor Nick Daleo

The Bible tells us that when Jesus rode into town on Palm Sunday, the whole city was stirred with excitement. They couldn’t believe Jesus was coming to town. They cheered, sang and celebrated. Five days after, they were nowhere to be found. As a matter of fact some even turned on Him and cheered for His death. What could have changed them that much in 5 days? Today we learn that most of the people cheering that day liked the idea of Jesus. Jesus doesn’t need more likes; He needs true followers.
Sermon: Noise, Noise, Noise
Pastor Nick Daleo

The effects of too much noise in our lives is staggering. We are bombarded constantly with noise, noise, and more noise. No matter the subject or situation, everyone’s got something to say and yell about. How do we distinguish what to listen to? What happens when all the noise goes against what your heart is telling you? Better yet what happens when all the noise is telling you one thing but the truth of Jesus says another? Join us for this sermon to learn that one will shout out at you while the others speaks meekly and show love.
Sermon: It's A Trap
Pastor Nick Daleo

No one likes being caught in a trap. Physically that’s a no brainer. But what about with your words? No one likes being pinned into a corner by someone else’s questions while we try and use our words to answer them. In this passage, Jesus gives a master class on how to answer when the world seems to keep trying to trap you with their rules, morals or demands. Jesus reminds the people of that day, as well as today’s readers, how to answer life’s questions when the trap has been set.
Sermon: My Stubborn Heart
Pastor Nick Daleo

If there’s one thing most of us have in common is that we all have some level of stubbornness in us. I know my level, so what’s yours? The problem is there are dangers and pitfalls when you have a stubborn heart. A danger that can prevent you from seeing some very important things in your life. Join us this week to learn about the stubbornness of the heart.
Sermon: What's in a Name?
Pastor Nick Daleo

What does your name mean to yourself or others? Does the mention of your name evoke happy feelings when mentioned or something else? What do you think the name of Jesus evokes from those that just hear His name? You would be surprised at some of the answers to that question. You would also be surprised that back in the time of Jesus they couldn’t answer that question so easily either. Find out this week what the real answer is to who is Jesus.
Sermon: A New View
Pastor Nick Daleo
Imagine being taught something your whole life that was passed down from generation to generation. Then someone comes along and revamps what you’ve always been taught. But this someone isn’t just anybody. It’s Jesus Christ the son of God. How would you have reacted? Also what do we do with what we’ve always been taught? Do we throw it away now? Have you always wondered what to do with the Old Testament? In this sermon you will hear straight from Jesus and what it all means and how it all works together.
Sermon: The Perks of Being Patient
Pastor Nick Daleo 
The evidence is overwhelming that we don’t live in a patient world anymore. Things come to us almost instantly at this point. So, what happens when it’s not in our hands and we do have to be patient? What happens when you’re waiting on God to do something in your life? As we finish out our series “Family Time” today, we look at a quick Psalm of David. What we will find together is that there are Perks to Being Patient.
Sermon: A Life on the Run
Pastor Nick Daleo 
We all know the story of Jonah in the belly of the whale. But did you ever consider the reason Jonah was on the run from God and found himself there? The answer will surprise you and help you to not run away from God in your own life. What we will learn through this sermon is that you can’t outrun God and that you will eventually wind up right where he wants you to be.
Sermon: You Are What You Eat
Ron Fryson
What’s your favorite food? Italian? Mexican? Meat & potatoes? From appetizers to desserts; everything we eat has the potential to strengthen or undermine our physical wellbeing. The same is true in the spiritual realm. We live in very trying times that require all the spiritual strength we can muster to stand firm in our faith. Daniel gave us a recipe for success when it comes to honoring God and taking a stand for righteousness. Let’s see what’s on the menu in God’s word!
Sermon: An Uncertain Future
Pastor Nick Daleo 
Are you worried about the future? Does the uncertainty of your future keep you up at night worrying and stressing out? Does the uncertainty of your future bring you anxiety? The funny thing about the uncertain future is that most of the things we worry about we can’t change anyway. Jesus gives us the remedy for this in the gospel of Matthew. Together, let’s see what Jesus, in His own words, has to say about our futures and how much we should be worrying about it.
Sermon: The Comparison Effect
Pastor Nick Daleo 
For many generations people have suffered from the comparison effect. They look at what others have and how others look and it has a negative effect on them. It can rob you of joy, it can cloud the way you think about yourself and ultimately it will steal your confidence and courage. Today’s generation suffers from it more than you can imagine. As always it was a problem in biblical times as well. Join us today for some family time as we look at both the old and the new testaments to see what God has to say about it.
Sermon: Break the Cycle
Pastor Nick Daleo 
Break the cycle of what, you may ask? The cycle of Generational Dysfunction. How many of us have been plagued by generational dysfunction and don’t even realize it. In this sermon, we look at someone who broke free from generations of family dysfunction. The key to how he did it, will open your eyes to a new freedom in your life.
Sermon: A Rhythm of Rest
Pastor Nick Daleo 
You’ve always been told to balance all the things in your life better. However, as you begin to try and balance all the things and busyness of your life, you come to realize that balancing is a lot of work. So this year we’re going to do something different. Instead of working hard to balance things in our lives, we’re going to find a rhythm in them. Finding a rhythm in life makes things flow better. Of all the things that keep us busy and on the go in our lives, the one thing we can never get a hold on is rest. This year let’s find the rhythm in the most important things in life. Work, Worship and Rest.
Sermon: Job Profile
Pastor Nick Daleo 
Imagine having to create a job profile for yourself and you’re a young teenager. What are the things that you’ve really accomplished by that age? Now consider the fact that Mary, the mother of Jesus, was only a teenage girl. What an assignment at such a young age. Why did God choose her? How would she handle it all? What did the angel Gabriel say to her to help her through this? Find out these answers and more in our final installment of the series, “Conversations with an Angel.”
Sermon: Dilemma to Destiny
Pastor Nick Daleo 
Did you ever consider that the dilemma you’re facing in your life now, could be leading you to your destiny? There are many examples in the bible of people facing issues and dilemmas, but where did it lead them to? Is it possible that if we follow Jesus’s lead that our trials can become our testimonies? That our very own dilemmas can lead us to our destiny? The destiny in which God is already ahead of you preparing. Join us this week as we look at Joseph’s conversation with an angel and see where it leads him.
Sermon: Seeing Is Believing 
Pastor Nick Daleo 
In the next three weeks leading up to Christmas, we will be listening in on some amazing conversations. Eves dropping if you will. Our new series, “Conversations with an Angel,” will highlight some of the well-known figures in the Christmas story and their conversations with angels. This week we look at the shepherds and find out for them, “Seeing Is Believing.”
Sermon: Trash Talker
Pastor Nick Daleo 
What is the Apostle Paul up to as we end out this series? He seems to be extremely confident in the things and direction that he’s been giving. In these final passages it’s almost like he’s trash talking to someone or something. Well, as we examine the end of this amazing chapter (Romans 8) that’s exactly what we see. However, Paul’s trash talking becomes an encouragement to build our lives on. How can Paul do this with a clear conscience? Because Paul, like you and I, know the end of the story. Join us for this very powerful ending to our series “Separation Anxiety.”
Sermon: Care Package
Pastor Nick Daleo 
Life is full of up’s and downs. Sometimes it’s just hard to comprehend. How could I be on such a high one day and down in the dumps the next? Why would God allow such a great thing to happen in my life last week, but this week is filled with a painful experience? You ever felt that way? There’s a promise from God that the Apostle Paul fully understood and shared with us in scripture. God is always in control and He cares for you more then you’ll ever know. Even in those hard times. Join us for the sermon “Care Package.”
Sermon: Acceptance Speech
Joe Faraldi
Have you ever felt that you’re not enough? That no matter what you do, you don’t feel accepted? If you’re living according to the world then no, you won’t. But God…says differently.
Sermon: The Best Is Yet To Come
Pastor Nick Daleo 
Does the future give you anxiety? Is life throwing things at you that make you wonder how this is all going to end up? Between raising kids in a crazy, confused society to world events, is there a way to lessen the worry? What if I told you God not only understands but has a promise for us to ease our minds. God’s promise to you and I is that “The Best Is Yet To Come”.
Sermon: A Selfless Spirit
Pastor Nick Daleo 
What would be the thing that you’re known for? What would people say about you when you’re not around them? Would it look like the self-centered me, me, me attitude or would it look different? Those who are known for serving others are known for the opposite of self-centered. Those who serve are known for being selfless. Today we celebrate our local community of servants. Join us for our first annual “First Responders” Sunday.
Sermon: The Family Fortune
Ron Fryson
What does it mean to be born or adopted into a family; to become an heir and receive an inheritance? As we continue our series, “Separation Anxiety” in Romans 8, we take a look at what it means to be born again into the family of God and become joint heirs with Christ.
Sermon: Daddy Issues
Pastor Nick Daleo 
If we’re honest, we’d have to admit the we all have some form of daddy issues, right? This gets confusing because the Bible instructs us to live a life pleasing to our Heavenly Father. Even though the Bible teaches us to honor our parents, we can’t actually say that we yearn to live a life pleasing to our earthly parents. That’s where we get stuck. Paul shows us the difference when it comes to living out a life pleasing to God. Once we grasp this, we’ll never have daddy issues with God again.
Sermon: A Pep in Your Step
Pastor Nick Daleo 
“I see you’ve got a new pep in your step. What’s that all about?” Has anyone ever asked you that question? If your walking with Jesus they should. At some point you’ll realize that the love God has for you in this life cannot go away. No matter what you do or where you go. Knowing that should give us a new way to walk with a pep in our step. In the next six weeks we are going to be looking at one chapter in the Bible. A book that you can spend your entire life studying and still never reach the depths of its spiritual guidance and all that it has to offer for living out the Christian faith. Join us for a study in one of the richest chapters in all of scripture, Romans 8.
Sermon: The Secret Sauce of Success
Pastor Nick Daleo 
As we close out this series, “American Idols,” we come to the idol of success. Is it possible to be successful without making it an idol? We all know it’s easy to be content when success is on your side, but can you be content when it’s not? Let’s learn from someone in the Bible who knew both success and failures, yet still managed to find contentment and not make their success or failures an idol.
Sermon: Stolen Identity
Pastor Nick Daleo 
What do you see when you look in the mirror? Does what you see define who you are? Whether you see yourself in a negative way or a positive way we have the ability to make our identity an idol. When you put what you or others think about you ahead of what God says about you, you’ve made you an idol. You don’t define who you are, God does and don’t ever let anyone or this world steal it from you.
Sermon: But, I Want That!
Pastor Nick Daleo 
Would you consider yourself a greedy person? Probably not because when you hear the word “greed” you automatically think of money. What if being greedy wasn’t just about money? What if the idol of greed has gotten a hold of you in other ways? Things like stuff and belongings. This week, let’s hear straight from Jesus in an example of this type of greed as we take a look at our next “American Idol.”
Sermon: Don't Settle for Less
Pastor Nick Daleo 
In the first week of our new series, “American Idols”, we take a hard look at some of the things we idolize in our lives. Idols are not just some ancient statues to worship. They are disguised as everyday things today. Our kids, success, control, approval and of course pleasure. We will come to learn that anything we put before God, is an idol. When we do that we settle for less. Enjoy the sermon, “Don’t Settle for Less”.

Sermon: PGC 3rd Anniversary
Pastor Nick Daleo 
One of the greatest examples of a letter written to a church to encourage and strengthen them, was written by the Apostle Paul. What better way to spend our time together today than to be encouraged by the man who knew about the ups and downs and struggles of the local church. It’s here, where we will find praise and encouragement today.
Praise for the things God has accomplished in His church. Encouragement for the future of His church.
Sermon: The Issue of Assumption
Pastor Nick Daleo 
As you get older, life seems to move by at an incredible pace. Also, as you get older, you realize just how little control you have about what tomorrow will bring. So how can we plan for tomorrow if we don’t know what tomorrow will bring? We can’t predict the future but we can put our trust in the one who knows the future. When we get ourselves in trouble is when we assume we’re in control of tomorrow. Join us this week for “The Issue of Assumption.”
Sermon: Kid Ego
Pastor Nick Daleo 
Did you know that you develop an ego as a child? There’s a lot of things we learn as children but an ego is never one that I thought of before. Well, we do. Maybe you’ve always been told that pride is the killer of your faith, and for sure it could be, but it’s so easy to say we’re not prideful. On the contrary you can’t say you don’t have an ego. We all do. I didn’t say it was inflated or bad but we all have one. The question is does your ego stop you from living out your faith? Join us this week for the sermon “Kid Ego.”
Sermon: Stop Fighting Already!
Pastor Nick Daleo 
What causes our fighting and arguing? We are a people and a society as a whole that argue and fight all of the time. People fight and argue about everything now a days. In this sermon “Stop Fighting Already!”, James asks the question why and then gives us a deep answer. An answer that we ought to pay close attention so we can be a better people. A more Godly people.
Sermon: Troublemaker
Pastor Nick Daleo
Our words have power! But are we using that power to lift others up or to destroy them? Our tongues, mouths, and whatever we are speaking has the power of life and death. Join us this week as we learn how to put our troublemaker ,our tongues, to good use.
Sermon: Dead or Alive
Pastor Nick Daleo
Can a dead faith save you? James is going straight to the point this week as we continue our series “My Brother James.” Is your faith just lip service or are you really living out a faith that’s alive and vibrant? Join us this week and together let’s put our faith through the test to make sure our faith is alive and kicking.
Sermon: The Real VIP's
Pastor Nick Daleo
How do you decide how you’re going to treat people? By their economic status? By what town they live in? By what schools they went to? By what country they were born in? What if I told you that God’s word says none of that matters at all. That all people are to be treated equally. That showing favoritism and partiality to anyone is a sin. Yes, anyone. Do your beliefs control your behavior? They should according to the gospel. Join us for a study in James 2 to find out more.
Sermon: Words Into Actions
Pastor Nick Daleo
God’s word is surely alive, BUT it doesn’t do it’s job unless you put Gods word into action in your life. Far too often we hear sermons, listen to podcasts, attend bible studies and read our own bibles. Then we sit and wonder why do our lives never really seem to change. As we finish out James chapter 1, he will remind us to ask ourselves an important question when we feel this way. Did I activate the word of God in my life, or did I just merely listen to it?
Sermon: What is With Your Family?
Pastor Nick Daleo
Have you ever wondered what people mean by “church family”? If it is a church family, shouldn’t it look different then my blood family? Why  does it seem, from the outside, to have some of the same issues as my family does? What is the common bond that makes a church be able to use the word family? To answer these questions and more join us for this special sermon “What’s With your Family?”
Sermon: Predicting the Future
Pastor Nick Daleo
In our final week of the Power of Potential series we’re going to learn to predict the future. That’s right predict the future, (well your future anyway). God’s word will get very specific for us as we close out this series by helping us predict what lies ahead for our lives. Would you like to know? Then don’t miss this Sunday.
Sermon: Don't Quit
Pastor Nick Daleo
Have you ever just wanted to quit your faith? Things became too much you weren’t getting out of it what you wanted? We’ve all been there. BUT, can you trust God that he has a plan for you? If you can, then you can learn to run your own race and run it strong knowing what God has in store for you. Join us for the sermon “Don’t Quit!” this weekend and let’s discover how together.
Sermon: One Step at a Time
Pastor Nick Daleo
No one wakes up one morning and says “today I’m going to get myself into a serious, troublesome situation”. No one plans to start these paths in our lives, but yet they happen.  How?  Why?  Have you ever gotten yourself into something just to one day turn around and say “How did get here?”
Sermon: Prayer and Potential
Pastor Nick Daleo
We’ve been looking over the last several weeks on some applicable things to change in our lives, to reach the potential that God has put inside of each one of us. We can never overlook the role that prayer plays in our lives when it comes to God revealing stuff to us. Stuff like our potential.
Sermon: Help I'm Stuck
Pastor Nick Daleo
We all have dreams about reaching our full potential in life. However, it seems that at some point we get stuck trying to reach it. Whether it’s life, laziness or you’re just in a rut you can’t seem to get out of.  If God has designed you then who better to turn to when it comes to reaching your full potential. Join us for the sermon “Help I’m Stuck” as we kick off our new series “The Power of Potential”.
Sermon: Protection in His Presence
Pastor Nick Daleo
Life tends to be a rollercoaster of calm times and stormy times. Where can you go for protection from it all? Not so much physical protection but protection for your heart, soul and mind. Listen to this sermon to help you understand that we have protection in the presence of God. And always remember that God will not put you in a battle that he didn’t already prepare you to fight.
Sermon: Fill in the Blank
Pastor Nick Daleo
WHY… Why did Jesus have to die on the cross? Couldn’t God have found another way? If He’s God can’t He have done anything different than sacrificing His own son? In this sermon we will unpack that there really was no other way. It had to be this way.
Sermon: A Gentle Soul
Pastor Nick Daleo
In our final grouping of fruits of the spirit we find a couple of words that we seem to have lost over the years. Specifically gentleness and self-control. How did this happen? How did we get to be such an angry society? For followers of Jesus this is the opposite of the attitude we’re supposed to have. In our final week of this “level Up” series find out where the powers lies to turn this all around.
Sermon: The Power of Patience
Pastor Nick Daleo
We have become a society of instant gratification. While it’s a convenient lifestyle, we may have lost the ability to have patience along the way. In our second group of fruits of the spirit we look at how we’re to be treating others. We’re going to be focusing on patience because if we learn to have patience with others then kindness and goodness will follow.
Sermon: Where's the Evidence?
Pastor Nick Daleo
What is the evidence of a life lived well? I mean, you can’t just say you’re doing well and great! There has to be some evidence, right? Anyone can claim they are good, but where is the evidence? When you are growing up in your faith you are also producing fruit. Fruit that is good and healthy and exudes great qualities. If you’re living out a life like that, you’ll never have to tell anyone. It will be just evidence of a life well lived for Jesus.
Sermon: It's Time To Grow Up
Pastor Nick Daleo
Does the amount of time you’ve been a believer in Jesus add up to how strong your faith is? If you’re a new believer did you know that there’s so much more for you than just believing in Jesus? If you’re just looking into your faith did you know that the growth process is how you move into your best life ever? Join us for part 1 of the series “Level Up”. Let’s learn together what it takes to level up our faith, no matter where you are in your journey.
Sermon: Re-Vision Relevant
Pastor Nick Daleo
Does the Jesus of the Bible have any relevance on your life and the society you live in now, or is the Bible just an outdated book of stories that doesn’t have any real function in today’s world? We believe that not only is God’s word relevant for today but it’s essential in living out your best life. That’s why being a relevant church is one of our core values. Join us for our final week of our Re-Vision series.
Sermon: Re-Vision Refreshing
Pastor Nick Daleo
Don’t you just wish that you had a refresh button for life somedays? Those days when you throw up your hands and say “I’ve had enough, and need to start over.” The truth is everyone has that refresh button available to them. It beings with a relationship with Jesus and then you tap into His refreshing words, which then refreshes you where you need it most; your soul. Because of this we at PGC have “refreshing” as one of our core values. Find out why, in this second part of our Re-Vison series.
Sermon: Re-Vision Mission
Pastor Nick Daleo
The church has done a good job over the years of taking the simple good news of Jesus, and complicating it. Different denominations, different church way of handling scripture and seemingly different rules for all of the above. As we push into this new season at Proving Ground Church we are presenting our Re- Vision. Where is God taking us, and what is our part. Are we doing everything to allow people to have a real encounter with a very real Jesus? Are we doing everything we can to keep the gospel simple, and obtainable for everyone? The answer for us will always be YES!!!
Sermon: Attitude Adjustment
Pastor Nick Daleo
There are times in our lives when we all know we can use an attitude adjustment. Paul in his letter to the Philippian church not only spells out what it looks like to have a good attitude, but also where our inspiration for our attitude comes from. Why is this so important? Because a bad attitude gives a false impression of the good news of Jesus. A good attitude lets the world see Jesus for who He really is.
Sermon: The Purpose of Courage
Pastor Nick Daleo
Could you use a halftime, pep talk from God in your life? Of course you could. From time to time in our lives we all can use one. In today’s sermon “The Purpose of Courage” we find God speaking to Joshua. Giving him a pep talk about moving into his purpose. What we will come to find through Gods pep talk today is that even though we may feel afraid and discouraged, those things don’t have to identify who we are. Joshua learns a valuable lesson on how to be courageous even when the odds are stacked up against him. What a life lesson for you and I.
Sermon: A Habit of Trust
Pastor Nick Daleo
Are you tired of starting off the new year being the same old you? Especially after you promised yourself this year would be different? If you want things to change this year regarding your faith, then it’s time to focus on a new habit for 2023. Make trust your new habit. Make it a habit to trust in Jesus in all the areas of your life, and not just on Sunday mornings. When you make that a habit, you can guarantee that this year you will not stay the same old you.
Sermon: What God Has Done Part Two
Pastor Nick Daleo
Part two of our special sermon series as we continue to look back on all that God has done through His people and His church.
Sermon: What God Has Done Part One
Pastor Nick Daleo
Part one of our special sermon series as we look back on all that God has done through His people and His church.
Sermon: Light of the World
John 1:1-14
Pastor Nick Daleo
After 400 years of silence, God sent his son, Jesus Christ, to be the light in a darkened world and the hope of a new beginning for everyone. We all need the light of Jesus in our lives because when you walk with Jesus, there is nothing that can stand in your way. This Christmas season, remember that the best gift you could ever receive is the gift of a relationship with Jesus; the light of the world.
Sermon: The Gateway Season
John 1:14
Pastor Nick Daleo
Charlie Brown got his answer to the big question “What is the Christmas season really all about” with a reading from Luke 2:8-14. It’s a great section of verse to tell some of the story, but does it really answer the question? In the sermon we turn “The Christmas Season into “The Gateway Season” with one verse. John 1:14 gives us a deeper understanding of the baby in the manger. That baby (Jesus) is God taking on human form to be with us and draw near to us. It’s the gateway season to everything for us.
Sermon:Open Up!
Luke 1:39-45
Pastor Nick Daleo
I think we can all agree that sometimes we can be so focused in our own little bubbles that we fail to see what’s going on around us. We walk around with horse blinders on and stay trapped in our own situations and dysfunction. It’s time to open up our eyes and ears and see what God is doing all around us. That’s what Mary and Elizabeth did when they met up to see the proof that the angel gave to them. When they, did they both realized that God’s word was about to come to life right before their eyes.
Sermon:The Waymaker
Exodus 2:1-10
Pastor Nick Daleo
Is it possible that God has been making a way for you, your whole life? Has He been lining up all the seemingly small details to get you to where you are today? There’s a key component if you are looking for God to be a waymaker in your life today. It’s time to take a step of faith and watch God clear the path for you. Join us as we look at the birth of Moses, and see how God cleared a path for him.
Sermon:Worth The Wait
Genesis 21:1-7
Pastor Nick Daleo
There's that uncomfortable feeling while you're waiting for something to happen in your life. Especially when it comes to the things that you know God has promised you. The question is what will you do while you wait? Will you take matters into your own hands to move it along? Or will you wait on God? God is the God of the impossible and He's worth the wait.
Sermon: Dinner Plans
Luke 5:27-31
Pastor Nick Daleo
What’s your dinner plans? Jesus wasn’t afraid to sit, relax and share a meal with those who needed Him most. Sure He took heat for it, but in His own words He says “It’s not the healthy who need a doctor it’s the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance”. So, who’s at your dinner table?
Sermon: Why Are You Afraid?
Mark 3:20-27
Pastor Nick Daleo
In this week’s message Jesus receives a criticism that ultimately accuses Him of partnering with the devil. They can’t figure Jesus out. They don’t know what religious box to put Him in. So He must be bad. Jesus goes on to show them that not only am I the picture of the ultimate good side but I’m more powerful than any foe that’s out there. Living out the famous verse. “Greater is He that is in me then He that is in the world.”
Sermon: Miracle To Message
John 5:1-18
Pastor Nick Daleo
Jesus heals a man who’s been hoping for a miracle for 38 years. While the miracle itself is amazing it’s also amazing that the religious people were more worried about what day He did it on instead of the actual miracle. Well as usual this miracle brings some criticism down on Jesus, but He uses it as an opportunity to let them in on a little secret. I am the son of God and when I want to heal the broken I don’t ask what day it is, I just do it.
Sermon: The Pride Button
