Sermon Description
The multitude of needs around us desensitizes us from seeing the needs of our neighbor. We pass by the panhandler on the street. We hear that our cubemate needs helps and ignore them. We see our classmate struggle with class, but fail to help them. The many needs around us have made us insensitive to them. How do we love our neighbor when we're unable to see their needs?

Sermon Description
Conflict creates distance between individuals. If you’ve ever been in one, then you’d know what I mean. It creates not a literal distance, but a relational distance. Relational distance manifests itself through silent treatment, terse reply, and awkwardness. Likewise, sin creates relational distance between us and God. How do we close this distance?

Sermon Description
We expect walking with God gets easier with time. Yet the circumstances of life (work, studies, relationships) dampen our initial excitement of following God. Our spiritual journey with God proves more difficult than we expect. This causes us to sing songs of complaint. How do we continue to trust God? What do we sing about to help us trust God?

Sermon Description
In the late 1700s, the Baptist church in the UK had forgotten its mission to reach the lost in the world with the gospel of Jesus Christ. It's also easy for us to forget our mission as Christians. We may inadvertently believe that the Christian life consists of Bible reading, prayer, and fellowship. But it's more than that.

Sermon Description
We believe that following Christ should have its benefits. But when we see believers suffer and wrongdoers prosper we wonder: "why?" It doesn't seem right. When we see the wrongdoer blessed, we may wonder: "Is it worth it to continue following Christ?" How do we overcome these questions and doubts when an assumption about following Christ is turned upside down?

Sermon Description
Once we’ve been accustomed to something, it’s easy to become comfortable. Things become second nature to us such as work, school, and family. We don’t notice things that we should. Comfort leads often to complacency. It’s easy even for Christians to become comfortable in their spiritual lives resulting in a complacent church. How do we guard against becoming a complacent church?

Sermon Description
We live in a consumer-oriented world. The customer is always right. Unfortunately, we may have the same consumer mentality about church. The church should cater to our needs. After all, the church member is always right, right? Yet Paul argues that the church is not ordered around us. How do we then become a rightly ordered church according to Paul?
