Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. (Matthew 11:29-30) *1/ Jesus' yoke 2/ Jesus' meek and lowly heart 3/ The rest of soul that shall be found in Jesus* **Sermon summary:** The sermon presents Christ's invitation to the weary and burdened to take His yoke, not as a return to the oppressive demands of the law, but as a joyful surrender to His meek and lowly heart, where obedience becomes a light burden because His work is complete. Drawing on the imagery of a yoke—both as a shared burden and a bond of close fellowship—the preacher contrasts the crushing weight of legalistic striving with the liberating grace of the gospel, where faith in Christ's finished work replaces self-effort. Central to this rest is the revelation of Christ's character: not a harsh taskmaster, but a compassionate, faithful, and eternally loving Saviour whose understanding, presence, and covenantal faithfulness bring deep soul-rest. This rest is experienced through spiritual insight into Scripture and the plan of salvation through Christ, the assurance of God's unchanging love, the confidence in His faithfulness through trials, and the personal, life-giving power of His Word, all grounded in the eternal covenant secured by Christ's blood. Ultimately, the invitation is not to earn rest, but to receive it by embracing Christ's yoke, learning from Him, and finding peace in His finished work.

In this challenging and convicting message from the "Kingdom Now" series on the Sermon on the Mount, Pastor Karl dives into Matthew 7:1-20, unpacking Jesus' teachings on judgment, discernment, prayer, and true discipleship.Pastor Karl begins by clarifying "Judge not, lest you be judged" — Jesus forbids condemning others, but calls for discernment and inspection of fruit. He uses the humorous image of the speck in your brother's eye versus the plank in your own, urging self-reflection first to avoid hypocrisy before helping others.He warns against casting pearls before swine or giving what is holy to dogs — don't waste the precious truths of God's kingdom on those who will only trample and reject them; be discerning and move on to receptive hearts.Jesus invites persistent, progressive prayer: Ask, seek, knock — ongoing commands with promises of receiving, finding, and entering God's presence. Pastor Karl emphasizes that continual prayer keeps us dependent on our good Father, who gives how much more generously than earthly parents, aligning our desires with His good will.The Golden Rule gets elevated: not just "don't do bad," but actively do to others what you want done to you — a revolutionary call to love.Jesus contrasts the narrow gate and road that leads to life (costly self-denial and obedience, yet light under His yoke) with the broad road of religious activity without heart change, which leads to destruction — few find the narrow way.Finally, beware false prophets disguised as sheep but inwardly wolves; recognize them (and ourselves) by their fruit. Good trees bear good fruit (love, joy, peace, etc.); bad trees produce bad — and a life of no fruit is equally revealing. Judge for identification, not condemnation.Pastor Karl closes with piercing questions: What sin do you quickly spot in others but slowly repent of yourself? What fruit would people taste from your life? He warns that self-deception is dangerous — the most perilous place is being close to Jesus without truly following Him.A grace-filled call to repentance, heart transformation, and walking the narrow road of fruitful, authentic discipleship.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 8:00am, 9:30am & 11:00am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

The Wonderful Counselor | The Child is Born Week one of our Christmas series explores how Jesus is the Wonderful Counselor from Isaiah 9:6. This message calls us to surrender our struggles to the One who understands and has the power to bring healing and hope. Subscribe and listen wherever you are. Key Take Aways: 1. Jesus is more than a Savior—He's a Counselor who walks with you through pain and brings healing. 2. The root of many of our struggles is spiritual, not circumstantial. Knowing God rightly changes everything. 3. God cares more about your soul than your situation. He offers lasting peace, not just temporary relief. 4. Real healing begins with honesty. You can't move forward until you're willing to be fully seen. 5. Surrender comes before breakthrough. God often waits for your trust before showing you what's next.

This Sunday we appreciate the people in our church who give their gifts and time to help Asbury be the wonderful place it is. We get to hear from laity member Teresa Cunningham as she shares the message, “Can We Walk Like Jesus?” Scripture: Matthew 22:35-40; 28:18-20
In this episode, we explore the genius of Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount, where He calls us to a life of integrity, truthfulness, and peace. Rather than speaking in anger, Jesus invites us into flourishing and wholeness—a way of being that restores what’s broken in us. He teaches that real integrity means keeping our word, real justice means refusing retaliation, and real love means extending grace. Ultimately, Jesus not only shows the way to wholeness—He is the way, healing and restoring us by His own integrity and grace.

We close out our sermon series on those who had encounters with Jesus with probably the most relatable character in our entire series. He is the only one who was already a Christian and had probably known Jesus and followed him in his early ministry, but our encounter takes place much later while he is living in Damascus and Jesus comes to him while he is praying. Jesus ask Annanias to complete what seemed like a simple task; go find a man and pray for him and tell him that God has and important job for him. Something that most of us have done before in praying and encouraging others - but the man Annanias is called to visit was the Christian killing Pharisee named Saul. Join us to discover what happened and how this simple encounter challenges all of us. From Luke 9:10-19. The final sermon in the series "The Had Been with Jesus".

Pastor Randy continued the Book of John sermon series with a sermon titled, "Who is Jesus? The Healer" from John 4:43 - 5:47. The Healer: 1. CURES Afflictions (vs. 4:43-5:15) 2. CLAIMS Authority (vs. 5:16-30) 3. CONFRONTS Accusations (vs.5:31-47)
In this encounter with Jesus, we look outside of the Gospels for the first time to the book of Acts as we meet Saul the Pharisee. Introduced to us at the murder/stoning of Stephen, one of the first deacons in the new Jerusalem church, by the Pharisees and religious leaders. We discover that when it comes to opposing, persecuting and pursuing the new Christian converts, Saul is unmatched. With the assassination of Charlie Kirk, we have seen a very overt, open and obvious (and sometime demonic) hatred of Christians in America and what they stand for - Saul the Pharisee would give any of those a run for their money when it comes to being evil. So, how did he turn from this open hatred and persecution of Christians to become the Apostle Paul, that we love and respect today? It was a simple encounter with Jesus on the road to Damascus and in that encounter, we might discover an answer for the American church in how we should respond to what is happening all around us.

In this encounter with Jesus, we look at the dinner party thrown by Simon the Pharisee that was crashed by an unnamed "sinful woman" with an alabaster jar full of perfume. While it is actually two encounters, both reveal something about worship that many "seasoned" Christians lose sight of our take for granted. As we discuss this encounter, we will look at both our personal and corporate worship experience and ask the question whether it actually reflects our own encounters with God. A look at how and why we sing as an act of Worship as well as our posture and behavior in corporate worship. We also challenge the church on the dangers of a spirit of entitlement that can affect us all over time and how to overcome it. From Luke 7:36-50.

In this message Pastor Rusty starts by offering some thoughts and reflections on the murder of Charlie Kirk and is aftereffects. He also ties in this assassination and several other troubling current events to the Encounter that Jesus had with the man born blind and the question of "Why". Why does God allow this kind of evil to run free? Why would God allow such evil to happen to good people? Jesus reveals in our study that "why" is the wrong question. Listen in to discover the right question and how it affects every one of us as we face difficulties and struggles. We also examine the various groups response to the healing of the blind man and how that relates to how each one of us responds when we see God working.

Pastor Randy continues the sermon series with a sermon titled, "Who is Jesus? The Son of God" from John 3:1-18. 1. Spiritual BIRTH (vs. 1-8) 2. Saving BELIEF (vs. 9-18) OUTCOME: ETERNAL LIFE
As Paul concludes his first letter to the Thessalonians, he gives them a final rapid fire list of instructions for how to treat each other as the people of Jesus.
When discussing his desire to broker peace between Russia and Ukraine, President Trump stated that he hoped that by securing a lasting peace, he could gain a spot in Heaven. While it is easy to point out how this view does not line up with scripture, the Presidents view is shared by almost half of all those who claim to be Christian and who attend churches. This gives us a perfect opportunity to engage with an encounter Jesus had with someone who holds this same view about how to secure a spot in heaven and to discover Jesus's response. We will be looking at what it means to be "born again" through Jesus's encounter with the Pharisee Nicodemus.

In this message we examine the importance of not just "feeling thankful" but rather the call on our lives to "be thankful" and how that looks in our everyday lives. We unpack how expressing our gratitude to both God and others can transform our perspective as well as our hearts. We discuss the foundation of a thankful heart - humility and contentment as well as the greatest enemy of developing that kind of mindset - entitlement and selfishness. Join us as we look at the encounter Jesus had with 10 men cursed with leprosy and why only one of them returned to thank him after he healed them.

In this follow up to last week's message we examine the aftershocks of Jesus' encounter with the Samaritan Woman at the well in John 4. We look at the disciple's response to the encounter and how that relates to the modern American church. We also break down what Jesus meant when he declared that the type of worshipers that God desires worship Him in Spirit and Truth. John 4:19-26, 27-38.
