New Life Fellowship Sermons

One of the greatest tragedies in history is the refusal to recognize Jesus. This sad reality has been repeated throughout history. In this Advent sermon, Pastor Rich leads us as we continue to explore John 1:1-14. He preaches on the ways we don't recognize Jesus, and the hope of growing in recognition of his presence in our lives.

In this sermon, Pastor Rich continues our Advent series. He explores what it means to join God in the renewal of the world by being witnesses to the Light. This message has large implications for our homes, workplaces, and our presence in our neighborhood.

In this first sermon in Advent, Pastor Rich explores the relationship between light and darkness in the gospel of John. He offers a word of hope for those who find themselves in a dark season of life.

We close our sermon series with a brief message from Pastor Rich and a panel of New Lifers sharing how they have incorporated a rule of life into their lives.

On Testimony Sunday, one New Lifer shares about his journey through loss & forgiveness. Hear the incredible story of reconciliation between John and Earl.

In this message, Pastor Rich briefly explores the importance of silence for our life with God. This is followed by a powerful “silent sermon” that will give our community an experience with silence that will deepen our relationship with God.

The gospel forms a diverse community where people are one with God and one with each other.

In this teaching on our Rule of Life, Pastor Rich explores the deep connection between our workplaces and our discipleship. More than a necessary evil, work is to be an area for worship and spiritual transformation.

In this sermon, Pastor Rich explores the Rest dimension of Our Rule of Life. He preaches on the rest found in God's love and the practices of rest that sustain our lives.

This week special guest Ken Shigematsu shares a message entitled "Survival Habits of the Soul". When we wear the yoke of the Father’s love, we can offer our very best, not out of an anxious need to validate ourselves, but from a place of inner rest and gratitude.

This week we continue our Rule of Life series. Pastor Rich focuses on the Prayer area of our Rule of Life, referencing Daniel’s commitment to God in a foreign land.

In the Parable of the Good Samaritan, Jesus describes a loving relationship with an unlikely individual. This Sunday, we explore Jesus’ commandment to love our neighbor the stranger in a message from Redd Sevilla, Executive Director, New Life CDC.

This Sunday starts our 8-week series on our Rule of Life. The Rule of Life is a simple structure that helps us pay attention to Jesus in everything we do. Throughout this series, we’ll be exploring the framework of practices that hold us together as a church, and we will be guided in creating a personal Rule of Life. This week Pastor Rich focuses on how our Rule calls us to work for strong relationships. Text: Mark 3:13-19
