Jul 31 – Not a Fan – Pt 4

Is the cross of Jesus Christ offensive to you? Many have said it was until they came it. 1 Corinthians 1:18 says, “The message of the cross is foolish to those who are headed for destruction! But we who are being saved know it is the very power of God.” What does this mean exactly and why should it be important in your life? This is something we all should know and act upon. Stay tuned and we’ll tell you more. God bless you. Thanks for listening! To find out more about our church please go to www.whccnb.org.

Jul 27 – 1 Corinthians – Pt 8 – The Lord’s Supper

The Lord’s Supper—many have heard that name and have experienced it at one time or another in church. The Corinthian’s attitude and behavior toward the Lord’s Supper was causing division and disunity in the church. And that lack of unity caused the believers to lose the real meaning behind what they were remembering. What does the Lord’s Supper really mean and how is it to be celebrated? Let’s talk about it. Thanks for listening, God bless you! To find out more about our church please go to www.whccnb.org.

Jul 24 – Not a Fan – Pt 3

Is the building the church? Or is it the people? Last week we said it was the Kingdom of God, the Bride of Christ. It is the people who have been saved by the blood of Jesus. WE are the church...not the building. They why did Solomon build the Temple for the Lord? Does God Need the Temple? We’re going to examine Solomon’s prayer in 2 Chron 6 & 7 to find out. Are you ready? Let’s go! God bless you. Thanks for listening! To find out more about our church please go to www.whccnb.org.

Jul 20 – 1 Corinthians – Pt 7 – Discipline in the Christian Life

Playing a piano concerto, running a marathon, performing the lead role in a play—these are all accomplishments that require much self-discipline. We admire people who can do these things, but how often do we think about the discipline needed to live the Christian life successfully? Let’s talk about it. Thanks for listening, God bless you!

Jul 17 – Not a Fan – Pt 2

Finding our way can sometimes be challenging especially if we’re really not sure of the destination. But even if we know where we want to go it can still be difficult. Which path should we take, the shortest and easiest or the longer more well-traveled? Today we’re going to talk about Finding a Way to Jesus. There are some who think they know the way and others who don’t. In our time together today we’re going to show you how and why we should all find a way to Jesus. Thanks for listening!

Jul 13 – 1 Corinthians – Pt 6 – Marriage

Today we take on another tough issue in 1 Corinthians and that is the subject of marriage. Our upbringing, the media and society are a few of the things that influence our view of marriage and the commitment it requires. There are many who would like to change the definition of marriage and downplay its importance. The Apostle Paul would have us turn our hearts back to God, the Creator of marriage, and rediscover this sacred institution’s true definition and purpose. Come and let’s journey together to find out more. Thanks for listening, God bless you! To find out more about our church please go to www.whccnb.org.

Jul 10 – Not a Fan – Pt 1

Welcome everyone to a new 6-week sermon series titled “Not a Fan.” This series is based on the one-of-a-kind book and movie by Pastor Kyle Idleman entitled “Not a Fan.” In this series Pastor Idleman points out that in any church there are people who are “followers of Christ” and others who are simply “fans.” Today, in Part 1, we journey to answer the question: Are You a Fan or a Follower of Christ? Let’s find out together. Thanks for listening! To find out more about our church please go to www.whccnb.org.

Jul 6 – 1 Corinthians – Pt 5 – Sexual Immorality

Today we’re going to tackle an issue that is rampant in society—sexual immorality. We have “adult bookstores” in most towns and pornography is the most profitable business on the Internet. This same kind of addiction was evident in Corinth as well. In today’s study the apostle Paul is going to address this issue directly and he’s also going to teach us about self-control—not allowing ourselves to be controlled either by non-helpful habits or serious sin. It’s on folks...let’s go! Thanks for listening, God bless you! To find out more about our church please go to www.whccnb.org.

Jul 3 – The Counter Cultural Christian – Pt 5

Today is the last sermon in this series. We’ve been looking through the lens of Solomon’s writing in Ecclesiastes and we’ve seen some amazing things. In this last sermon titled “Don’t Be A Fool In Worship”, we’re going to look for answers and insights into how not to be a fool in worship. Because if you’re going to worship God, you better make sure you do it in the right way—because there is a right way and a wrong way to worship God. Join us and let’s find out more.

Jun 29 – 1 Corinthians – Pt 4 – Power Plays

What do you think of when you hear the phrase “Power Plays”? Some will relate it to athletic events and yet some will relate it more to interpersonal or organizational matters. Can there be power plays within the church? Yes there can. In fact in today’s study Paul rebukes the church in Corinth for getting caught up in making Christianity about them and not about the Kingdom. How can we avoid doing that? Stay tuned and let’s find out together. Thanks for listening, God bless you! To find out more about our church please go to www.whccnb.org.
