https://newsongpeople.com/messages/the-4-ps-of-painSeries: Looking Unto Jesus // Real Change for Real Sinners // The 4 P's of Pain What if your pain isn't proof of God's absence, but a sign He's working more deeply than you realize? In this week's message, Pastor Josh unpacks how God uses even the hardest seasons to shape us into the likeness of Christ. Why does God allow pain? What purpose could it possibly serve? And how do we find real joy when life hurts? Together, we'll explore how pain is a promise, serves a purpose, comes with a prescription, and, most importantly, reveals the person of Jesus in the midst of it all. He doesn't just remove pain; He redeems it. Join us as we look to Jesus, the One who transforms suffering into strength and scars into trophies of grace.#LookingUntoJesus #RealChangeForRealSinners #NewSongChurch #The4PsOfPain #JesusInThePain #FaithThroughFire #GodsPurposeInPain #JoyInSuffering #PainAndPurpose #TrustGodInTheStorm #GodRedeemsPain #HeTurnsPainIntoPurpose #JesusOurHealer #HopeInChrist #GodsGraceIsEnough #JoyOfTheLord #EnduringFaith #ChristOurStrength #ScarsToTrophies #GospelLiving #ChristianFaith #ChurchOnline #SundayMessage #Matthew6 

In a world that celebrates busyness, it's easy to believe our value comes from what we do. But in Luke 10, Jesus reminds Martha that Mary “has chosen what is better.” This message looks at how we often get trapped by distraction, pride, and people-pleasing—mistaking activity for identity—and how to refocus on what truly matters: being present with Jesus.If you've ever felt overwhelmed, overworked, or disconnected from God, this is your reminder to slow down, sit at His feet, and rediscover the one thing that matters most.Scripture: Luke 10:38–42Main Idea: Who you are determines what you do—not the other way around.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Today's Message Notes: https://www.bible.com/events/49512439Stay Updated on our Campus: https://linktr.ee/nlcsearcyOnline Giving: http://newlifechurch.tv/givingMailing Address: 2851 West Beebe-Capps Expy, Searcy, AR 72143For more information on our campus, email us at searcy@newlifechurch.tv or visit newlifechurch.tv.

https://newsongpeople.com/series/looking-unto-jesusReal change for real sinners doesn't just happen as we look up to God- it happens as we look out to one another. In this message from our series Looking Unto Jesus, Pastor Sarah unpacks 1 John 1 and shows how honesty and confession are essential to true spiritual growth.Walking in the light isn't about being perfect; it's about what to do when we aren't. It's about daring to be a sinner so we can experience the cleansing, freeing power of Jesus' blood together.Discover how confession brings us out of the dark and into the light of real fellowship and freedom in Christ.

This powerful message confronts one of the most challenging tensions in Christian living: how do we reconcile Jesus's command to deny ourselves with His instruction to love our neighbors as we love ourselves? Drawing from Luke 10:25 and the greatest commandment, we're invited into a journey of self-discovery that isn't about self-absorption but about spiritual maturity. The core revelation is strikingwe cannot be spiritually mature while remaining emotionally immature. When we suppress our feelings, ignore our emotions, or live behind masks of performance and possessions, we actually shut off a vital channel of communication with God. The message challenges us to examine three deceptive lies that keep us from knowing our true identity: the lie that we are what we do, the lie that we are what we have, and the lie that we are what others think. Through the lens of Jesus's temptation in the wilderness, we see how Satan still uses these same tactics to keep us from discovering who God created us to be. The call is clear: tune out distractions, surround ourselves with the right people, step out of our comfort zones, and most importantly, see ourselves the way God sees usas fearfully and wonderfully made, as the very pupil of His eye. This isn't New Age philosophy; it's biblical truth that sets us free to love authentically.

https://newsongpeople.com/series/looking-unto-jesusWhich version of Jesus are you following? Is He just a healer when life hurts, a comforter when you're stressed, or a provider when you're in need? Scripture says there are unsearchable riches in Christ (Ephesians 3:8), and we're called to grow up into Him in every way (Ephesians 4:15). In this message, we'll uncover seven dimensions of Jesus—the ruling King, the saving Redeemer, the faithful Friend, the One who perseveres, intercedes, is soon returning, and is gentle toward our weakness. The key to real transformation isn't self-improvement—it's Jesus Himself.

This week we wrap up our Annual Vision Series with a powerful message about our external mission—our invitation to go.Through the story in Numbers 21, we're reminded that following God's call isn't easy. People are fickle, life gets hard, and living out your faith will require grit. But just like the bronze snake lifted up in the wilderness, there's still a cure that works—and it's found in Jesus.Pastor Kevin challenges us not just to look at the cure, but to deliver it. Whether it's serving in outreach, helping the hungry, supporting schools, or joining missions, the call to go is for every believer.If you've been waiting for a sign to step into what God is calling you to—this is it.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Today's Message Notes: https://www.bible.com/events/49500024Stay Updated on our Campus: https://linktr.ee/nlcsearcyOnline Giving: http://newlifechurch.tv/givingMailing Address: 2851 West Beebe-Capps Expy, Searcy, AR 72143For more information on our campus, email us at searcy@newlifechurch.tv or visit newlifechurch.tv.

A litany of death, yet hope with Enoch; God's heart grieves over violence and moves…

In this powerful message, we delve into the often-overlooked topic of depression in the Christian faith. The story of Elijah from 1 Kings 19 serves as a poignant reminder that even the mightiest of God's servants can experience deep despair. We learn that depression is not a sign of spiritual weakness, but a complex issue that affects our whole being - body, mind, soul, and relationships. The sermon challenges us to reconsider our approach to mental health, emphasizing that we can't simply 'pray away' depression. Instead, we're encouraged to seek holistic healing, combining spiritual practices with professional help and self-care. This message invites us to be compassionate witnesses to those suffering, just as God was for Elijah. It reminds us that our struggles don't define us in God's eyes - we are always His beloved children. As we journey through our own 'wilderness' experiences, we're called to lean into God's presence, even when we don't feel Him near, and to rediscover our God-given purpose.

In this message, we look at one of Jesus' parables from Matthew 22 — the story of a king throwing a wedding banquet for his son. What begins as a familiar invitation quickly becomes a powerful picture of transformation.Jesus shows us that everyone is invited, but not everyone chooses to change. This isn't about what you wear to church — it's about letting God clothe you in something new. He doesn't just invite you to the table; He invites you to be made new.

https://newsongpeople.com/messages/in-his-house-flourishing-in-your-identityYou were created to flourish! In this message, guest speaker Pastor Lee Cummings unpacks Psalm 92:12–15 and reminds us that from the very beginning, God designed humanity to flourish in His presence. But what happened when sin entered the story, and how has Jesus restored what was lost? We'll walk through how Christ restores our purpose, empowers our calling, and invites us to build a world filled with His glory. Are you living like someone who's merely surviving, or someone who's truly flourishing in God's design? Dive in and rediscover what it means to flourish in His presence.

Lamech builds empires of violence.  But Seth's line begins to call on the Lord

In this powerful message, we're challenged to examine our whole-person health and how it relates to our spiritual journey. The key scripture, Luke 10:27, reminds us to love God with all our heart, soul, strength, and mind - encompassing every aspect of our being. This holistic approach to faith invites us to consider how our emotional, spiritual, physical, mental, and relational health all play crucial roles in our ability to fully love and serve God. The message draws an interesting parallel between our lives and a symphony, emphasizing the importance of all parts working in harmony. We're encouraged to 'mind the gap' between where we are now and where God wants us to be in each area of our lives. This introspective journey isn't about perfection, but about growth and alignment with God's will. As we strive for this balance, we're reminded that there are no 'bad' emotions - only unhealthy responses to them. This insight invites us to embrace all aspects of our humanity while seeking God's guidance in managing them wisely.

This weekend, Pastor Kevin launches our Annual Vision Series with a powerful reminder that the church is a table. Just like in Luke 14, God is inviting every person to take their seat and be part of what He's building.This message challenges us to move from the crowd to the core by serving, giving, and growing together as one church family. There's a seat for you here, and the table isn't full yet.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Today's Message Notes: https://www.bible.com/events/49500022Stay Updated on our Campus: https://linktr.ee/nlcsearcyOnline Giving: http://newlifechurch.tv/givingMailing Address: 2851 West Beebe-Capps Expy, Searcy, AR 72143For more information on our campus, email us at searcy@newlifechurch.tv or visit newlifechurch.tv.

https://newsongpeople.com/messages/union-with-christHey New Song Church! Grab your Bible and turn to Romans 6.We're in Looking Unto Jesus, a series chasing one thing: Real change for real sinners — not polish, not performance, but transformation that reaches desire and identity. Today we're going straight to the source of that change: Union with Christ.Big Idea: You're not just forgiven by Christ — you are united to Christ. What's true of Him now defines you. His death counts as your death. His resurrection fuels your life.In this message you'll learn:• Why the Bible's most repeated identity is “in Christ” — and why that changes everything.• How Romans 5–6 moves you from in Adam (sin/death) to in Christ (righteousness/life).• The four approaches to growth — God then me / God not me / God plus me / God in me — and why only one actually transforms.• What “abiding” really means (John 15): grafted into Jesus so His life produces His fruit in you.• Why union makes you secure (Romans 8), blessed (Ephesians 1), and transformed (Galatians 2:20) — and why the greatest gift of the gospel is Christ Himself.Key Texts: Romans 6:3–5; Romans 5:12,19; 1 Corinthians 15:22; 2 Corinthians 5:21; John 15:4–5; Philippians 2:12–13; Colossians 1:29; 1 Corinthians 6:17; John 10:28–29; Colossians 3:3; Ephesians 1:3; Romans 8:1,38–39; Galatians 2:20Sticky lines to take with you:• “We were all born in Adam — we must be reborn in Christ.”• “This isn't God plus me — it's God in me.”• “Union isn't fragile; it's Spirit-forged.”• “The reward of union isn't just what Jesus gives — it's Jesus.”Next steps:• If you're burned out on “God then me,” come home to God in me.• If you've been passive, abide — take the step He already called you to.• If shame's been loud, hear the gentle Jesus: “I haven't let go.”

Worship corrupted, anger ignored, blood crying from the ground

In this powerful message, we explore the profound concept of 'burnt stones' from the book of Nehemiah. Just as Nehemiah rebuilt Jerusalem's walls using broken, charred stones, God specializes in using our brokenness for His glory. The enemy may mock our past failures and current struggles, but these very experiences can become the foundation of our testimony. We're reminded that our scars tell stories of survival, not defeat. This message challenges us to see our imperfections as opportunities for God's redemptive work. It encourages us to embrace our role as 'living stones' in God's spiritual temple, recognizing that our value lies not in being flawless, but in allowing ourselves to be renewed by the Master Builder. As we reflect on this, we're inspired to offer our brokenness to God, trusting Him to build something beautiful from the rubble of our lives.

https://newsongpeople.com/messages/despairWhy do “real sinners” like us so rarely experience real change? Could self-confidence be blinding you to your need? What if the doorway to joy actually runs through despair—seeing yourself as God sees you, then collapsing into mercy? In this powerful message, Pastor Jackson walks us through Deceived → Despairing → Delight without getting stuck in shame. He'll walk us through how Paul's journey—from “I persecuted the church” to “I'm the foremost of sinners”—teaches us about humble joy and lasting transformation. Grab your Bible, grab a pen, and lets dive in!

Life can feel chaotic, especially when the world around us seems filled with conflict and pain. In this message, we explore how to go deeper in our faith, finding peace and clarity beneath the surface where God's presence is steady and unshaken.Pastor Kevin challenges us to live as real Christians — people who actively follow Jesus, bear good fruit, and keep our focus on eternity. Instead of tearing each other down, we are called to speak life, encourage one another, and live with urgency for what truly matters.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Today's Message Notes: https://www.bible.com/events/49497762Stay Updated on our Campus: https://linktr.ee/nlcsearcyOnline Giving: http://newlifechurch.tv/givingMailing Address: 2851 West Beebe-Capps Expy, Searcy, AR 72143For more information on our campus, email us at searcy@newlifechurch.tv or visit newlifechurch.tv.

Genesis 3 closes with justice and mercy side by side. We walk through God's words…

We're called to embrace compassion in action, not just in thought. The story of Jesus feeding the 5,000 with five loaves and two fish teaches us that God can multiply our seemingly insignificant offerings. It's not about what we lack, but about giving what we have, no matter how small. This challenges us to look at our own lives and ask: What do we have in our hands that God could use? Our prayers, words, or gifts may feel small, but in God's hands, they can move mountains, touch souls, and feed thousands. We're God's masterpieces, created for good works He planned long ago. Let's step out in faith, offering our 'five loaves and two fish,' and watch how God can rewrite stories and leave lasting legacies through us.

In this message from our Founding Pastor, Rick Bezet, we explore what it truly means to grow in spiritual maturity. Drawing from James 1:1-4, we see how trials can build perseverance, leading us to a complete and mature faith. A spiritually mature life chooses joy even in hardship, trusts God's timing and direction, practices gratitude daily, and focuses on reaching others with the hope of Jesus. Through these principles, we discover how to live a life fully rooted in Christ and His purpose.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Today's Message Notes: https://www.bible.com/events/49494108Stay Updated on our Campus: https://linktr.ee/nlcsearcyOnline Giving: http://newlifechurch.tv/givingMailing Address: 2851 West Beebe-Capps Expy, Searcy, AR 72143For more information on our campus, email us at searcy@newlifechurch.tv or visit newlifechurch.tv.

https://newsongpeople.com/messages/seven-dimensions-of-jesusHey New Song — we're kicking off a brand-new series: Looking Unto Jesus.This week we begin with the thing every change-seeking heart needs to hear: real growth doesn't start with trying harder — it starts with seeing Jesus rightly.Big idea: Real change for real sinners comes from looking to Jesus — not looking harder at ourselves. When Jesus expands, we change.In this message you'll hear:• Why growth is in Christ (2 Peter 3:18 / Ephesians 4:15) — not self-improvement.• How a domesticated, collectible-figure Jesus keeps us small — and why the real, unsearchable Jesus makes us free.• Seven dimensions of Jesus that reshape our lives: He Rules, Saves, Befriends, Perseveres, Intercedes, Is Returning, and Is Gentle.• Practical next steps for people stuck in control, shame, exhaustion, cynicism, or numbness — what it looks like to draw near.• Stories, Scripture, and pastoral truth to help you dive deeper into Christ and begin real, lasting change.Scriptures referenced: 2 Peter 3 · Ephesians 4 · Matthew 28 · Luke 7 · John 10 · John 15 · Philippians 2 · Romans 5 · Hebrews 7 · Matthew 11 · Mark 13 (and more)If you came for pep-talks, great — but if you want soul change, come ready to look. Let the fullness of Jesus expand your vision, overwhelm your assumptions, and love you into growth.

"ONE TEAM. ONE MISSION. Today's Jersey Sunday message reminded us that as the body of Christ, we are unified in our diversity. Despite our differences in race, politics, or personal preferences, we are called to be ONE TEAM with a singular focus: spreading the Gospel and showing Christ's love. Pastor challenged us to: Be humble and gentle Make allowances for each other's faults Stay united in the Spirit Cover everything in love In a world filled with division, let's stand together as the church and change the narrative. We are unified in the essentials, grant freedom in the non-essentials, and cover everything else with love. Remember: "If we do not hang together, we will most assuredly hang separately." - Ben Franklin Join us next Sunday as we continue to grow together in faith and unity! #OneTeam #LifeChurch #JerseySunday"

Ever feel like God is asking you to take a step of faith when you can't see the full picture? In this message, we explore Noah's story and what it really means to trust God, even when it doesn't make sense.Noah faced an impossible task and a world full of doubt, yet he chose to obey God and build anyway. His story reminds us that obedience often comes before understanding and that God is faithful to finish what He starts.If you've been holding back, waiting for perfect conditions, this message will encourage you to take the step God is calling you to take and to trust Him with the outcome.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Today's Message Notes: https://www.bible.com/events/49491841Stay Updated on our Campus: https://linktr.ee/nlcsearcyOnline Giving: http://newlifechurch.tv/givingMailing Address: 2851 West Beebe-Capps Expy, Searcy, AR 72143For more information on our campus, email us at searcy@newlifechurch.tv or visit newlifechurch.tv.

Ephesians 2:1-3 Building on the previous chapter, Paul delves into the topic of God's power. Pastor Rod Bunton explores the human condition before salvation—physically alive, yet spiritually dead. The post The Walking Dead appeared first on Grace Church of Tallahassee.

In this powerful message, we're reminded of the importance of finding true rest in Jesus. The central theme revolves around Matthew 11:28-30, where Jesus invites us to come to Him when we're weary and burdened. We're encouraged to let Jesus carry our load, learn from His gentle and humble nature, and realize that peace is found in a person, not a place. The sermon uses the analogy of an overloaded backpack to illustrate how we often try to carry too many burdens on our own. It challenges us to give up control and trust in God's plan, emphasizing that many of our stresses are self-inflicted. By learning from Jesus' example of prioritizing His relationship with the Father, we can find a more balanced and peaceful life. This message is particularly relevant in our fast-paced, stress-filled world, offering hope and practical wisdom for those feeling overwhelmed and in need of a spiritual recharge.

In Genesis 3, the serpent's whisper raises the same questions we still wrestle with today:…

What does it really mean when Jesus shows up?

Let's be honest—we all have people in our lives that we just don't like. Maybe it's someone who's hurt you, someone who rubs you the wrong way, or maybe even someone who doesn't like you back. But what do you do with that tension? How do you handle relationships that feel messy, frustrating, or even toxic?In this message, we'll look at what Scripture says about dealing with dislike, navigating conflict, and choosing God's way when it would be easier to hold a grudge.

https://newsongpeople.com/messages/hearing-god-pastor-rich-butlerIn this message from our Hearing God series, guest speaker Rich Butler unpacks what it means to recognize and respond to God's voice in everyday life. Drawing from passages like Hebrews 1:1–2, John 10:27, Colossians 3:15–16, and Hebrews 4:12, we're reminded that God still speaks today—through His Word, His Spirit, and His peace. Just like the disciples who cast their nets at Jesus' word (Luke 5:4–6), we are invited to trust, obey, and experience the fruit of hearing Him clearly.Discover how to tune your heart to God's leading, discern His guidance amid competing voices, and walk with confidence in His will.

We cover the pros and cons of nondenominational churches, how they compare to traditional denominations, and whether the label “Protestant” ultimately matters for your faith in Jesus Christ.This discussion is perfect for new Christians, skeptics, and anyone curious about the differences between Christian denominations.
