The weekly sermon from Hyde Park Baptist Church in Austin, TX.
The smallest exercise of faith can produce Kingdom growth beyond our imagining.
God causes His Kingdom to grow in His perfect time. (But He does it through you).
Follow the Master-Sower by sowing liberally and reproducing through secret-sharing.
The Truth of Jesus' parables and the word of God are revealed to His people in His time.
Either Jesus is raised from the dead or it is an idle tale.
Resurrection faith never gives up, but knows Jesus makes the dead come alive.
Resurrection faith is contagious, leading others into faith when it is shared.
Resurrection faith lives as if Jesus is the resurrection and the life.
Resurrection faith knows Jesus is the only disease healer and death stealer.
One greater than any prophet has come to resurrect all who would believe.
Resurrection faith is unwavering, even when it is under fire.
The only saving faith is not result-oriented, but resurrection faith.
True worshipers worship the Father in spirit and in truth.
The only worship God accepts is with clean hands and a pure heart.
When we worship, God works on our hearts and in our lives.
We either worship God or we war against Him; there is no middle ground.
Early in life, late in life, or somewhere in between, be found faithful to the Lord.
Jesus, the humble King of the Universe, came as God's gift to save you.

God appointed you to prepare the way for the One who brings eternal life.

Following Jesus means working toward eternity, not for the earthly things.
Following Jesus means giving, praying, and fasting for His glory, not your own.
Following Jesus means we are perfected; never on our own, but solely through Him.
Following Jesus means your “yes” means yes, and your “no” means no.
The sins in our hearts break God's Law as much as the sins of our hands.

You are alive and called to living out the good works He has prepared for you!
