Vineyard KC Weekend Messages

This is week 2 of our series, “Oddities”.

This week we begin a new series called “Oddities” where Pastor Greg talks about all the strange, odd and often unexplainable things that happened in the Bible, and we delve deeper into the circumstances to understand the meaning behind them.

This is week 4 of our Christmas series, "Pieces of Christmas".

This is week 3 of our Christmas series, "Pieces of Christmas". This weeks Pastor Greg continues the story of Mary, who goes to visit Elizabeth, who is pregnant with John the Baptist. The power of the Holy Spirit has overshadowed Mary and his presence overcomes her as she becomes pregnant with the Jesus the Messiah. As Mary comes to visit Elizabeth and the presence of God enters her house, Elizabeth begins to prophesy, telling Mary she is blessed because she believed the Lord would do what He said, and tells Mary she is blessed among all women. In that moment, both pregnancies are validated.

This is week 2 of our Christmas series, "Pieces of Christmas". Pastor Greg talks about Mary and her encounter with the Angel Gabriel, giving us insight on how to respond when God starts to break in to our lives. God chose an unknown girl from an unknown village from a poor family with a complicated relationship to be the mother of the Messiah, showing God doesn't view our circumstances the way we do.

Beginning our Advent season, Pastor Greg talks about all the pieces that had to come together for the birth of Christ. This week he talks about learning how to wait well, and how God does things according to His own time, not our time, which is always best.

Pastor Greg talks about the miracle of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead.

Pastor Greg tells the story of Jesus feeding 5,000 people with just five loaves of bread and two fish, followed by Jesus walking on water, then Peter climbing out of the boat and walking with Him.

This week, Pastor Greg shares the miracle of Jesus healing the woman with an issue of blood.

This is week 3 of our church-wide series, "Miracles". Pastor Greg talks about the miracle of Jesus healing the blind man.

In week 2 of our church-wide series, "Miracles", Pastor Greg talks about the miracle of casting nets as Peter invites Jesus in to his boat, follows Jesus' command to cast out his net and catches an abundance of fish.

Pastor Greg kicks off our new church-wide series, "Miracles". He talks about Jesus' first miracle turning water in to wine.

Pastor Greg wraps up the 'Esther' series this week. In a reversal of events, after Mordecai is exalted and Haman is humbled, Esther confronts the king and Haman must now face the consequences for manipulating the king and attempting to kill the Jewish people.

Pastor Greg continues the story of Esther, as she prepares to speak to the king in an effort to save her people. He contrasts Haman, who is prideful and wants to glorify himself, and Mordecai, who is humble and loyal to the king. In a surprising twist of events, as Haman plans to put Mordecai to death, the king honors and exalts Mordecai for his loyalty, while Haman is humbled. Just as in God's upside-down kingdom, God exalts those who are humble, and humbles those who are exalted.

This is week 3 of our "Esther" series. Pastor Greg talks about how Haman plotted to have all the Jewish people in the kingdom killed. Mordecai encourages Esther that perhaps she was made queen for such a time as this. Pastor Greg reminds us that, like Esther, God created us and purposed us to be exactly who we are, where we are, when we are.

This is week 2 of our series, "Esther". Pastor Greg talks about Mordecai, Esther's uncle, who is loyal to the king, and refuses to bow down to Haman, the king's official, when everyone else around him is doing so. He reminds us how we are also called to be loyal to the King, Jesus. And when everyone else is bowing down or conforming to the ways of our world, we are meant to be set apart and stay loyal to the King of Kings.
