Life can feel heavy and faith can get hard. The book of Hebrews was written to people who were tired, discouraged, and thinking about walking away from God. When life entices us to drift, we need an anchor for our souls. Whether you're feeling stuck, searching for answers, or just need some hope, this summer journey through Hebrews will help you fix your eyes on Jesus, the one who started your faith and the one who will carry you through.

We all have moments where we learn something that shifts our perspective. Maybe it was an inconvenient truth, an inspiring story, or a profound observation. And now that you know it, you can't unknow it. Maybe you feel like you should do something about it. But what? Sure, you could get started, but how do you know you're doing the absolute best thing. You just need to know a bit more—just a few more searches, articles, and experts—and THEN you'll be ready to act. Besides, you've already done the most important thing—you raised awareness. But is just being aware getting you anywhere? What would it take to actually make a difference?If you're new with us, let us know how we can be praying for you, we invite you to fill out an online Connect Card by visiting https://southhillschurch.churchcenter.com/people/forms/91550—If you are looking for what is next for you, we invite you to fill out an online “Next Steps” card by visiting https://southhillschurch.churchcenter.com/people/forms/672517To give with us select the Give tab on the Church Center App or visit https://southhills.org/giving/ and select the Corona Fund or Corona BOW Fund—Visit our Linktree to find out more about everything mentioned in today's message or follow along with the message slides:https://linktr.ee/SouthHillsCorona —To RSVP for On-Campus Events select the Events tab on the Church Center App or visit https://southhills.org/corona/

Join us in this powerful sermon that invites you to embrace the transformative power of God's grace in your life. Inspired by Apostle Paul's prayer in Ephesians, this episode explores the deep essence of grace, which is God's unearned gift of love and forgiveness. As we delve into the recurring theme of grace throughout the sermon, discover how it empowers believers to share the message of Jesus with boldness, even in the face of adversity. Through a deep dive into Acts chapter 4, we witness the bold faith of Peter and John amidst persecution and learn the significance of staying rooted in prayer and community. This sermon calls us to form and cherish 'grace groups' for spiritual support and accountability. Allow this message to come alive in you, helping you understand God's divine plan while inviting you to partake in His ongoing work through the Holy Spirit. Experience God's grace as a constant companion on this journey of faith.     LOVING GRACE IN ACTION Acts 4:23-31 Main Idea: The loving accountability (grace) of a covenant discipleship group provides the best grace-filled environment for being and making disciples. Witness the loving grace in action within the early Church Introduction: Believers are People of Grace! Consider their grace (Acts 4:23) “Peter and John went back to their own people” - fellow believers. Here they found: Emotional and spiritual support.     An inviting group that encouraged vulnerability. Partners in ministry. Consider their action plan (Acts 4:24-28). Prayer Confidence in God's Sovereignty Praise (v. 24) Scripture inspired by the Holy Spirit Testimony Consider the prayer requests (4:29-30). They simply prayed for: Renewed strength to preach the gospel message of Jesus with “great boldness” (v. 29). God to work in miraculous ways to magnify “the name of your holy servant Jesus” (v. 30). Conclusion: The Result of their Loving Grace in Action (Acts 4;31) The place where they were meeting was shaken. They received a new infilling with the Holy Spirit. They spoke the word of God boldly.   Action Step: Commit (or re-commit) yourself to a grace group – a Sunday School class, LifeGroup, midweek Bible Study group, men's, women's, youth, children's group, etc.   Find other Podcasts, Sermon Notes and the Bulletin here. https://www.mvcnaz.org/live Stay in touch with our Church Center App at https://www.mvcnaz.org/churchcenter Contact us through our CONNECT form at https://www.mvcnaz.org/connect With Pastor Mike Curry.

We all like the idea of a stress-free existence. Wouldn't it be great if every ounce of anxiety just suddenly evaporated? If God really loved you, isn't that what He'd do? What if that's not the goal though? What if God doesn't want us to get rid of it, but to grow through it? What if you didn't have to fall apart under pressure? What if you could persevere? What if your setbacks could build you instead of break you? How would that even work?

Join us for today's sermon podcast, where we delve into the powerful message drawn from Apostle Paul's prayer in Ephesians, urging believers to share the gospel fearlessly and with clarity. This episode explores the intersection of faith and patriotism, challenging the notion that Christians cannot be patriotic. Emphasizing the true meaning behind the phrase "God Bless America," we reflect on what spiritual blessings are essential for our nation and how we, as Christians, can be good stewards of our nation and faith. Through the lens of biblical teachings, we address the importance of prioritizing God's kingdom and His righteousness in our lives and communities. We draw inspiration from historical figures like George Washington and explore how reverence for God's Word, house, and will can lead to national repentance and renewal. This sermon encourages us all to live out our faith actively, becoming salt and light in our communities and leading our nation back to its spiritual roots.   “America – God Shed His Grace on Thee” “Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord…” -  Psalm 33:12 Main Idea: The true blessing of a nation comes not from power or prosperity, but from honoring God through repentance, righteousness, and the faithful witness of His people. Introduction: What Do We Mean by “God Bless America”? - Matthew 6:33 “It is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor.” — George Washington, Thanksgiving Proclamation, 1789 “Can the liberties of a nation be secure when we have removed a conviction that these liberties are the gift of God?” — Thomas Jefferson, Notes on the State of Virginia, 1785 “God Bless America” with Spiritual Blessings - Proverbs 14:34 a. Recover Lost Values Micah 6:8 “Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports.” - George Washington b. Recover the “Faith of Our Fathers” The Mayflower Compact (1620) began with a covenant “for the glory of God and advancement of the Christian faith.” “To the distinguished character of a Patriot, it should be our highest glory to add the more distinguished character of a Christian.” — George Washington c. Rebirth of Reverence For God's Day (Sabbath), God's Book (Scripture), God's House (worship), and God's Will (obedience). Hebrews 10:25 “The foundations of our society and our government rest so much on the teachings of the Bible that it would be difficult to support them if faith in these teachings would cease.”— Calvin Coolidge, 1924 III. “God Bless America” Should Also Mean “God Save America!” 2 Chronicles 7:14 a. From Moral Decay Dear friends, I warn you as “temporary residents and foreigners” to keep away from worldly desires that wage war against your very souls. - 1 Peter 2:11 (NLT) “We have been the recipients of the choicest bounties of Heaven... but we have forgotten God. We have forgotten the gracious hand which preserved us in peace... and we have vainly imagined... that all these blessings were produced by some superior wisdom and virtue of our own.”  — Abraham Lincoln b. From False Ideologies and Religions Colossians 2:8 “The highest glory of the American Revolution was this: it connected in one indissoluble bond the principles of civil government with the principles of Christianity.” — John Quincy Adams “God Bless America” Through the Church - Matthew 5:13–16 a. The Church Must Lead in Repentance and Renewal “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” — John Adams, 1798 “Only a virtuous people are capable of freedom.” — Benjamin Franklin, 1787 b. Faith Must Be Active James 2:17 “I have lived, Sir, a long time, and the longer I live, the more convincing proofs I see of this truth—that God governs in the affairs of men.” — Benjamin Franklin, June 28, 1787, Philadelphia Constitutional Convention Conclusion: A Call to Hope and Holiness - Psalm 33:20–22 America's hope is not in her wealth or might, but in her Maker. “If we ever forget that we are One Nation Under God, then we will be a nation gone under.” Ronald Reagan, 1984 Call to Action: Pray for national repentance. Live as a holy people. Be salt and light in a darkening world.   Find other Podcasts, Sermon Notes and the Bulletin here. https://www.mvcnaz.org/live Stay in touch with our Church Center App at https://www.mvcnaz.org/churchcenter Contact us through our CONNECT form at https://www.mvcnaz.org/connect

People say the first step is the hardest. And...maybe. But you've started a million different things, and first steps aren't really your issue, follow through is. Maybe like mine, your life is peppered with unfinished projects, undeveloped ideas, false starts, and first drafts. You have so many good intentions but get sidetracked so easily.

Welcome to today's sermon podcast, where we delve into the profound message of God's grace and how we can activate it in our lives. Drawing inspiration from Apostle Paul's prayer in Ephesians 6:19, we explore the boundless and undeserved favor God offers us, transforming lives through forgiveness and friendship. Using creative illustrations like marbles and pool noodles, we learn how God's grace surrounds us constantly and our responsibility to share that grace with others. Discover the instituted and prudential means through which God's grace flows and how practicing these can grow us into Christ-likeness. Join us in applying the lessons from Philippians 2:12-13, understanding that God's grace is not only for personal salvation but also to be shared and activated for His mission. Reflect on the ways to clear the path for God's grace in your life, ensuring it flows abundantly to you and through you for the benefit of others.

We all want our lives to count. We want to feel like what we do matters. But we can't all matter, right? I mean, there's 8 billion of us. Just because we want our life to count doesn't mean it does. In a world of big business, algorithms, and AI, is anything you do actually going to make much of a difference? How could the little you're able to do possibly amount to much of anything?

Welcome to today's sermon podcast, where we dive deep into understanding the challenges discipleship faces in our modern world. Drawing from Acts 2:44-47, we explore how secularization, privatization, and pluralism act as metaphorical riptides challenging the grace of God and our mission as His disciples. We reflect on the importance of maintaining our focus on God's kingdom, regardless of the cultural pressures to conform. We journey through scriptural insights and personal anecdotes, examining how cultural trends threaten to obscure the truth and grace we are called to live and share. Join us as we discover how to live counter-culturally, prioritize our heavenly citizenship, and ensure that our lives are a testament to God's abundant life and everlasting grace. with Pastor Mike Curry WHY IS DISCIPLESHIP SO DIFFICULT? Challenges to Grace Acts 2:44-47 Main Idea: Discipleship may not be easy, but it is essential to God's mission on earth, and God has promised to help us. Introduction: Three Cultural Rip Currents Secularization – Church losing influence as shaper of life and thought in the wider social order. Privatization – Spiritual things are being confined to the private arena of life. Pluralization – An unending buffet of ideologies and faith options competing for attention.   Three vital principles for living as a disciple in today's age. I. Principle #1: Maintain the priority between your primary and secondary cultures. Primary culture = Christian community of faith Secondary culture = The world in which we live. Matthew 6:33 – “Seek ye first the Kingdom of God” Principle #2: Remind yourselves that our true citizenship is in heaven. We have dual citizenship (Phil. 3:20). We may use the things of the world, but we should not become “engrossed in them. For this world in its present form is passing away” (1 Cor. 7:31). III. Principle #3: Live as a counter-culture. Jesus said we must be in the world but not of it (John 17:16-18). Jesus calls us to be salt, light, and yeast (Matt. 5:13-16; 13:33), and that requires us to challenge the incorrect beliefs and corrupt practices of our age. Conclusion We must pass our faith to the next generation through discipleship. We are citizens of heaven living and working for Him on this earth, busy making Christlike disciples in his name. Action Step: Examine Acts 2:44-47 this week. What daily practices shown there do you exhibit in your daily life?  What disciplines listed in the passage seem difficult for you to practice daily?  Pick one and work on incorporating it into your life this week. Enlist the help of others in your family or church to do so.

Life can feel heavy and faith can get hard. The book of Hebrews was written to people who were tired, discouraged, and thinking about walking away from God. When life entices us to drift, we need an anchor for our souls. Whether you're feeling stuck, searching for answers, or just need some hope, this summer journey through Hebrews will help you fix your eyes on Jesus, the one who started your faith and the one who will carry you through. Listen to more from Pastor Jared.  Also, we highly encourage you to download the Church Center App if you want more information about the church. The app will be able to guide you toward our Calendar of Events, ways to Give, and fill out a Connect Card.

Everybody has spent time daydreaming about what they'd do if they suddenly came into a lot of money. We imagine all the ways we could make our lives better. “I'd buy this. Go there. Support that.”. But we're not entirely selfish. We also imagine the ways we'd make other people's lives better. We're big-hearted, generous people, we just don't have the money to do what we want to do. We definitely would if we could. But would we though?
