...I Hadn't Done That
“If people really knew what I had done, they wouldn’t love me.”
“How could someone who has screwed up the way I have really be useful?”
“I had my chance and I blew it.”
These and a dozen other statements could apply to any of our lives. When
we have regrets, they can become roadblocks to accomplishing great
things with our lives. How do we face our failures and mistakes and trust
that God can move us forward despite what we see in our rearview mirror?
...I Knew the Future
In uncertain times, when it seems that nightmares are more likely to come
true than our dreams, it is easy to spend our time imagining the worst. But
does all this worry really help us to live better, more fulfilled lives, or does it
drag us down into a sleepless trap of hopelessness? How can we possibly
overcome the terrible things that may be waiting for us around the next
corner in life?
...I Weren't a Chicken
Fear can be paralyzing! Locked in place, we are unable to walk forward,
live out our purposes, accomplish the missions of life we have been given
to undertake! Fear is bad, right? So what is it with this idea in the Bible
about it being good to fear God? Is it possible to make sense of the good
and the bad of fear?
...I Weren't Lonely
Imagine your closest friends are gone and the people who are still with you
have abandoned you and left you in the hands of those who have your
worst in mind. Time to roll up in a ball and give up, right? NOPE! Though
loneliness can rob our desire to press on, there is a way to respond to the
isolation we all experience and walk into the path God gives us for victory!
Getting Through Tough Times
This sermon isn't actually part of the If Only... series. Due to Josh Sorvik's
ski accident, his family was in the hospital all week, and a guest pastor,
Peter Johnson, spoke to us instead as we attempted to process this
tragedy, how this fits into what God says about Himself, and where to go
from here.

If Only...
Everybody wants to make a difference, live
a life that counts, or at least find personal
fulfillment! But it just seems that there are
circumstances and events that hold us
back. Whether it is the things we’ve done,
the worries of what may come, the fears
that plague us, a deep sense of being
isolated, or just the overwhelming busy
schedule that swallows our lives, we have more than enough reasons to feel like our lives
will just have to come up short. Join us on a journey into the life of a guy named Paul who
learned how to remove the barriers to reach the life God intended!
