Do you ever find yourself speaking before you think, only to be filled with remorse over what was said? Or do you find it hard to follow through on what you know is right? This morning, as we continue our series in the book of James, we’ll discuss the importance of listening before speaking, controlling our anger and understanding when it is righteous, and clearing out the negative influences within us. By embracing God's Word and acting on it, we can experience true freedom and blessing instead of just going through the motions. Join us as we learn how to shift our perspective, change our habits to walk in the presence and power of Jesus, and discover the joy that comes from living a life of obedience and faith.

Jesus is ALL you need

baptist, bible, church, preaching, scripture, sermon

Today we'll take a look at how actively pursuing a life of faith, not just making a statement of faith, allows God to step in when the burdens in our lives or baggage from our past seem to consume us. We’ll explore how creating a new life with Jesus is the only way to have effective change in our lives.

We'll talk about how real faith is shown through our actions, like in the amazing story of the centurion in Matthew 8, where just believing in Jesus brought healing. You'll see how having faith in Jesus can bring real change and hope into your life. We'll also discuss how Jesus makes us alive and saves us by His grace, transforming us with His love and helping us overcome our past to live with purpose. And, we'll see how Jesus connects us to God, allowing us to confidently approach Him and receive mercy and grace every day, along with when we need it most.

Today, you'll learn to rest in Jesus' presence, press towards Him, and share the hope He brings with others. It's a chance to deepen your faith, find peace in God's love, and grow spiritually. For more information, visit www.burnthickory.com. See you there!

The Need to Stop Praying and Start Praising

Episode  |  July 21st, 2024  |  40 mins 50 secs

baptist, bible, church, preaching, scripture, sermon

Join us as we explore the pivotal moments when we shift our focus from praying to praising, and how praise can declare victory even in the midst of our struggles. Drawing from the story of Jehoshaphat in 2 Chronicles 20, we will see how prayer enters us into the battle, while praise declares the victory.

Many of us may feel burdened by heavy hearts and unanswered prayers. Today, we'll learn how to turn our frustration and prayers into powerful praise, shifting our focus from our problems to the greatness of our God.
Marty Godfrey will walk us through five crucial steps to take when facing life's trials and surprises, including seeking the Lord, praising Him, focusing on His character, listening to His voice, and walking in His victory.

Slinging Mops Or Taking Out Stoppers

Today, as we study scripture, we get to hear from our Burnt Hickory Counseling Center founder – Brian Foster. Throughout the Bible, we see a reflection of the types of conflict in man: personal conflict, conflict with others, and cultural conflict. When we face the wrath of God against our ungodliness and unrighteousness, our solution is to turn to God. In Second Corinthians 5, we see that if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away, and all things have become new. We also see that everything visible and physical is always preceded by something invisible and spiritual. Second Chronicles 5 tells us that when Israel was in trouble, they turned to the Lord God and sought Him; He was found by them.
Are you facing conflict in life right now? Do you need to turn to the Lord God and seek Him? What’s keeping you from finding the solution for your ungodliness? If you have questions, need prayer, want to schedule a counseling session, or need to take the next step in your faith journey, then reach out today. We’d love to connect with you and help you no matter where you are in life. Take the next step by visiting burnthickory.com/next.
