In this stirring and deeply encouraging Advent message, Pastor Karl launches the new series The King Has Come with a powerful exploration of the first great gift Jesus brings: hope.Turning to Luke 2 and the quiet, largely forgotten figures of Simeon and Anna, Pastor Karl paints a vivid picture of two elderly saints who spent decades waiting in faithful obscurity—praying unanswered prayers, worshiping through silence, and serving without recognition. Yet the moment a 40-day-old baby was carried into the temple, their Spirit-illuminated eyes saw what the crowds missed: the long-promised Messiah, the Consolation of Israel, the Redemption of Jerusalem.Through their story, Pastor Karl reveals that biblical hope is not wishful thinking; it is the confident, unshakable expectation of future good rooted in the unchanging character and faithfulness of God. Hope grows in the hidden soil of daily faithfulness, thrives when God chooses to work in silence, and celebrates the tiny seed because it already trusts the coming harvest. Simeon and Anna never saw Jesus preach, heal, or rise from the dead—yet they held the infant King and departed in peace, because they knew who He was long before they saw what He would do.A tender yet convicting word for everyone who has waited a long time and is still waiting, prayed a long time and is still praying, and hoped a long time and is still hoping. In a season that can feel rushed and noisy, this message calls us to slow down, stay faithful, and train our eyes to recognize the presence of the King—even when He shows up wrapped in the ordinary, the small, and the seemingly insignificant.Because the King has come, hope is not dead. It is alive, resilient, and bubbling up in every heart that keeps showing up and keeps looking for Jesus. Essential listening for anyone who needs fresh hope this Christmas.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 9:00am & 10:30am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

1 Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. 2 For by it the people of old received their commendation. 3 By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible. 5 By faith Enoch was taken up so that he should not see death, and he was not found, because God had taken him. Now before he was taken he was commended as having pleased God. 6 And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.

Pleasing God - Zechariah 7:1-14In worship, attitude is important.What we do outside of worship is more important than what we do inside.If we don't live our lives as God would choose, it could mean destruction for us.How we act within community and the world is more important to God than what we do in here.

SERMON: PLEASING GODSCRIPTURE: Romans 8:1-8SERIES: SPIRIT FILLED
'When Samuel reached him, Saul said, “The Lord bless you! I have carried out the Lord 's instructions.” But Samuel said, “What then is this bleating of sheep in my ears? What is this lowing of cattle that I hear?” Saul answered, “The soldiers brought them from the Amalekites; they spared the best of the sheep and cattle to sacrifice to the Lord your God, but we totally destroyed the rest.” But Samuel replied: “Does the Lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the Lord ? To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat of rams. ' 1 Samuel 15:13-15,22
Fear of people or praise from God? John 9 tests our hearts; Ephesians 4 shows the worthy walk.Today Pastor Roderick Webster continues Practical Christian Living in Ephesians 4:1–3 (KJV). Paul's “I therefore” turns doctrine (ch. 1–3) into daily life (ch. 4–6): humility, meekness, longsuffering, forbearance, and unity in the bond of peace. We also visit John 9 and John 12:42–43—some believed yet kept silent, loving human praise more than God's. Finally, Titus 2:10 reminds us to adorn the doctrine—live in a way that makes truth beautiful.Takeaway: Right living needs right doctrine; unity isn't built by ditching truth but by wearing it with grace.Scriptures (KJV): Ephesians 4:1–3; Ephesians 1–3 (context); John 9; John 12:42–43; Titus 2:10; 2 Corinthians 4:6.If this helped, like & share to bless someone today.

Today's Promise: Hebrews 11:6 The Christian life is a life of faith. The only way to please the Lord is to live by faith. Faith is trusting that God will do what He has said He would do. This verse gives us two truths on faith. First, faith begins with our belief that God exists. Second, you must believe that God is the rewarder of those who seek Him. Without faith, you stand alone, trusting in your strength and wisdom. When you live by faith, you walk in the favor and blessing of God, in fellowship with Him, and your life is pleasing to the Lord.
Today's Promise: 2 Corinthians 5:9 Some goals are so worthy they demand giving our entire life in pursuit. Pleasing the Lord is one such goal. What a simple yet worthy Goal. I will please the Lord. Forget about everyone else and what they think. No matter what the situation, what life throws at me, or what I go through, my one goal is to please God. Let's join Paul in making our one ambition, our life goal, to please the Lord in all things.

What if the thing slowly killing your spiritual life… didn't even feel like a big deal?WATCH NEXT ➡︎ https://youtu.be/I9IHtkUBQTsThere's no such thing as a small sin. But compromise rarely starts with something obvious. It starts with comfort. With convenience. With calling something “normal” that God calls sin.In this episode, we're talking about the real reasons Christians fall into compromise, and how to get free before it's too late.We'll cover:• Why some people compromise and others don't• What to do when you don't feel convicted anymore• How to walk away from a relationship that's pulling you away from God• What Romans 7 teaches us about repeated sin• Why calling something “no big deal” doesn't mean it's not deadlyIf you've ever thought, “I don't even feel bad about this anymore,” or “it's not technically sin”—this conversation is for you.You're not weak, you're at war. Let's talk about how to win.
