The Master's Plans: Discerning God's Will1/21/2007 to 2/25/2007One metaphor the Bible uses to describe our life is that of a building, where Jesus is the foundation and our choices are building materials. But how do we determine God's will for our choices? We find this difficult for two primary reasons: we are asking the wrong question and we are using the wrong approach. In what ways did God guide His people in the Old Testament? What about today? Guidance into God's will, ever since Pentecost, is one of the primary roles of the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Spirit uses five basic tools to accomplish it. Further, the Holy Spirit enables us to do God's will once we have discerned it. View Series ›

Maintaining An Eternal Perspective12/31/2006 to 12/31/2006In Ecclesiastes 7:2, Solomon states that death is the destiny of every man and that the living should take this to heart. Life is brief, but this life isn't all there is. However, where we spend eternity depends on what we decide in this life. Furthermore, this life is preparation for eternity. As Christians, let's live our life with one eye on eternity. Maintaining an eternal perspective affects the way you live your life and brings tremendous freedom and peace. View Series ›

Christmas Eve Celebration12/24/2006 to 12/24/2006Three elements of the nativity --the star, the stable, and the manger -- communicate a personal message to us. The star is God's gift of direction; He wants us to find Him and have a relationship with Him, and He makes Himself known in the person of Jesus Christ. The stable is God's reminder that He understands the harsh realities of life that we face. Finally, the manger proves that God can take the ordinary and make it extraordinary; God restores and transforms lives. View Series ›

What If?12/17/2006 to 12/17/2006God has a dream. According to 1 Timothy 2:4-6, God's dream is the total redemption of mankind. In Matthew 28:18-20, Jesus gave the Great Commission, entrusting all believers with the task of fulfilling God's dream. This is God's vision statement for the local church, and it has three parts: making disciples of all nations, baptizing them, and teaching them to obey. The sermon concludes by listing what Coast Hills Church has done and is planning to do to help fulfill The Great Commission. View Series ›

The sermon outlines six different styles of evangelism: the direct style (Peter in Acts 2), the intellectual style (Paul in Acts 17), the testimonial style (blind man in John 9), the interpersonal style (Matthew in Luke 5), the invitational style (Samaritan woman in John 4), and the serving style (Tabitha in Acts 9).

Dealing with Pain8/27/2006 to 8/27/2006Pain is a common experience of humankind, but we often don't want to talk about it. There are three common ways most people deal with pain: resign themselves to it, avoid it through denial, or inflict pain on themselves in anticipation of greater pain. God gives us a better way of dealing with pain; he wants us to embrace it. Embracing the pain involves trusting in God's sovereignty, worshiping our God who gives and takes away, and being a witness to others of the reality of God in our lives. View Series ›

Faith in the Fire8/20/2006 to 8/20/2006How we respond to suffering is perhaps the most powerful witness of our faith.

It's Not About Me8/13/2006 to 8/13/2006Psalm 139:13-14 is one of the greatest messages from God to each of us. We are each uniquely made and matter more to God than we can imagine. Believing this truth should radically change our attitudes about ourselves and the way we live. Remembering whose we are and that we are fearfully and wonderfully made keeps us from being ripped off by relationships, mugged by the mirror, hijacked by success, and robbed by the past.

The Power of Forgiveness8/6/2006 to 8/6/2006Forgiveness, perhaps more than anything else, can transform a broken relationship. Without forgiveness, marriages flounder and parent/child relationships fail. Ephesians 4:32 says we are to be kind and compassionate, forgiving one another as Christ forgives us. Three keys to applying this in your life are: live like you are forgiven, get out of the judgment business, and forgive others. View Series ›

Heaven7/16/2006 to 7/16/2006John 14 tells the truth about heaven. The promise of heaven can keep us going during the difficult seasons of life, as we keep one eye on eternity.

The apostle Paul is a shining example of such trust. View Series ›

Navigating 20061/8/2006 to 1/29/2006As Christians, our fundamental guiding principle is that our life is not our own; we have been given a new life that we are to live for God. God is as concerned about preparing us for eternity as He is about our life here and now. This series discusses four habits that will not only change our life now, but will also prepare us for the future. These four habits are daily Bible reading, sharing our faith with others, daily prayer, and generous giving. This series discusses why these habits are necessary, the barriers to doing them, and how can we overcome those barriers. View Series ›

The kingdom of God, described by Jesus in the Gospels, is very different from the kingdom of this world. This sermon outlines how The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis gives a picture of the kingdom of God, specifically that believers have a new identity in Christ, a new power to resist temptation, and a new king to follow. View Series ›

The Case for Christmas12/11/2005 to 12/11/2005Christmas boils down to one central issue: Who was the child in the manger? Jesus himself said that belief in his identity is the most important issue of all. Luke 2 tells how the shepherds responded to the message from the angels about the baby Jesus -- they chose to investigate for themselves. We should do the same with our skepticism. Lee Strobel tells of his investigation of three questions and how the affirmative answers led him to faith in Christ: 1) Do we have reliable records about Jesus?, 2) Did Jesus clearly claim to be God?, and 3) Did Jesus offer credible credentials to back up his divine claims?

Healing is a Choice10/9/2005 to 10/9/2005John 5 tells the story of sick people lying by the healing pool and Jesus' choice to be with them. Jesus asked a certain man if he wished to be healed. It sounds like an absurd question, but sometimes people choose to remain ill. This sermon discusses three choices to experiencing healing and the lies that prevent you from making those choices. We must choose to grieve the losses of our past (not to simply believe that time heals all wounds), to embrace the reality of our lives (not to act like the problem isn't there and will thus disappear), and to serve people (not to believe you can't serve if you're not completely healed).

Remembering 9/119/11/2005 to 9/11/2005How do we respond to disasters like 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina? Psalm 23 is comforting as it defines our relationship with our heavenly Father. God, as our shepherd, will take care of us, his sheep, in whatever trial that happens. He wants to be your personal shepherd, but that depends on your choosing Him as your shepherd, as Jesus explained in John 10. As a member of God's flock, you can expect God to provide for you, to guide you, to protect you, and to bless you. It doesn't mean we won't experience difficulties in a sinful world, but it does mean he will be with you every step of the way. View Series ›

A Beautiful Mind9/4/2005 to 9/4/2005The movie A Beautiful Mind tells the story of John Nash, a brilliant man who experienced delusional paranoia that led to a frightening existence. He had to teach himself discernment and to learn to listen to the right voices. Similarly, the voices to which we give our attention shape the people we become and the lives we live. In Romans 12:2, Paul urges us to be transformed by the renewing of our mind. How might we begin to experience a revolution of the mind if we need one? Practice listening for God's voice, practice saying "yes" to God when we hear His voice, and practice making our mind a dwelling place of God. View Series ›

Faith Based Parenting8/21/2005 to 8/21/2005How do you love someone within arms reach when you live with them at arms length? Mark 9:14-29 tells the story of Jesus healing a demon-possessed boy at his father's request, despite the man's doubts. The healing of the compassionate Savior unites families. But we need to live by faith in order to love by faith. This means praying "Lord, have mercy" and "I believe; help my unbelief". It means getting on our knees and bringing our loved ones to God. It means partnering with those who believe the unbelievable. And it means removing the "I'm" and placing our faith in the Lord Jesus, the great "I am". View Series ›

The Power of Being There8/14/2005 to 8/14/2005Southern California is paradise, but beneath the paradise is pain. We all have pain in our families. In Mark 9:36-37 and Mark 10:13-16, Jesus teaches about the importance of welcoming children. Parents bless children by their presence and time, by affection, and by placing spiritual deposits in their life. God gives us the grace of always being there for us, and we need to offer the same grace to our children. The power of being there is what makes a difference in families. View Series ›

God's Plan for Love & Marriage6/5/2005 to 8/7/2005Many marriages fail because of a misunderstanding of true Biblical love. Real love is demonstrated by Christ's sacrifice for us, and Jesus says the greatest love is when we lay down our lives for our friends. This series looks at how we can have Godly marriages and relationships that are honoring to Christ and lasting. It addresses important questions, including: What is sacrificial love?, What do men and women need?, How can we fight temptations so our marriages aren't destroyed?, How can we resolve the guilt from our past?, How can we communicate more effectively and resolve conflict in a healthy way?, What are Biblical roles of husbands and wives?, Why we forgive so we have the capacity for true intimacy?, and Is it possible to rekindle the flames of romance in marriage?

Christianity Illustrated4/3/2005 to 5/22/2005In His Sermon on the Mount, Jesus took truths that people thought were commonplace and turned them upside down to reveal that God's kingdom and way of living is radically different than the first century idea of a good Jew. What does a saint look like? Our image makes us feel that we can't measure up, just as the Jews in Jesus' day couldn't measure up to the standard of the Pharisees. In the Beatitudes, Jesus teaches what it really means to be holy and righteous and to experience a joyful life. View Series ›

He Cried Out3/6/2005 to 3/20/2005The cross elicits many different emotions in us. The cross of Christ is incredibly important, as it demonstrates what God hates the most (sin) and what God loves the most (people). So the final words of Jesus from the cross are very poignant, as they come from His heart during His greatest trial. His words are telling as to both the character of God and as to how his followers are to live their lives. What did Jesus mean by His final words and what are the implications for our lives today?

Faith is not the absence of doubt; rather doubt is a normal part of faith, and God can handle it. The story of Gideon in Judges 6 is about a man honest about his doubts that God still uses mightily.
