New Life Fellowship Sermons

Pastor Rich and Rosie reflect on the ways we are called to love, serve and hand down the faith to the next generation. nextgen #nextgeneration

In this sermon, Pastor Rich explores a passage that has been problematic for many. He unpacks Jesus's words on the power of lust and the way our relationships and souls are impacted by it. More than just a sermon on external behavior modification, he addresses the often overlooked aspects that Jesus wants us to hold on to that lead to transformed relationships and lives. godandourbodies #lust #sexuality

For Part 3 in our God and Our Bodies series, special guest speaker, Dr. Curt Thompson, guides us on the topic of The Gospel and Shame, focusing on how shame shapes us. godandourbodies #shame

In the second week of this series, we continue to explore the ways our spirituality is connected to our sexuality and the ways this profound connection gets twisted. Pastor Sherin explores the way Jesus confronts these distortions without the condemnation we come to expect in religious spaces. godandourbodies #condemnation

In this series, we will explore the connection between spirituality and sexuality. Pastor Rich opens our series with a message focused on the big picture. We will learn why this is a vital issue to prayerfully examine, and identify essential truths from scripture to help us follow Jesus faithfully in this area of our lives. godandourbodies #sexuality

As we continue to celebrate our risen Jesus, we are invited to reimagine what resurrection means for our lives in seasons of transition, loss, and pain. Like Mary Magdalene in her encounter with Jesus outside of the garden tomb, Jesus wants to give us eyes to see new possibilities. eastertide #resurrection
