Sermons on Prayer

The Cup of the King

Thank you for joining us for our time of worship here at Chapel City Church! We are glad that you are here, and we would love the opportunity to get to know you and to answer any questions that you might have. Today we will come to the Garden of Gethsemane in Matthew 26. It’s here in the quiet setting of a familiar garden that a battle for the souls of men will take…

Our Faithful Father

Thank you for joining us here at Chapel City Church! We are so glad that you are with us today. Throughout the Sermon on the Mount, we have been consistently reminded of two things: The first is the unfailing nature and character of God, and the second is the high calling placed on the life of the kingdom citizen and disciple of Christ. Last week we worked through a…

The Disciple’s Prayer

Thank you for joining us for worship here at Chapel City Church! Whether you are able to be with us in person or at home, whether you are a member or a guest, we are glad that you are with us this week. Last week we opened up the first three petitions from the Lord’s Prayer. All three were expressions of longing for the glory of God to be displayed and marveled at.…

Real Righteousness: Prayer

Good morning and welcome to Chapel City Church! We are thrilled to be able to begin thinking through what it looks like for us to be able to gather again in person on Sunday mornings. We recognize that it will be a long road to get back to “normal,” but we know that the Lord directs and oversees every step of the process. We hope that whether you worship with us in…

The Call to Prayer & Proclaim

As we move into the last chapter of Colossians, we are going to see Paul revisit a topic that he brought up earlier in the letter. In Colossians 1, Paul told the believers in Colossae that he was praying for them, and that his highest hopes were for their spiritual growth. Now, as he closes the letter, he will ask for their prayers on his behalf. As we read his request,…

Praying for God’s People

As we move into the book of Colossians, we are going to be brought face to face with the glory of Jesus Christ. Paul writes to a church that was being bombarded by worldly philosophy and man-made religion. And into the spiritual confusion he shines a brilliant light on the person and work of Jesus Christ and the nature of the gospel. It would have been a comforting and…

Looking for Something to Agree On

We often ignore the things we agree on and fight over the obscure things. 1 Timothy 2:8-15 opens up many thorny questions, strong emotions and cultural minefields that we need to address. Yet there are also clear statements that we tend to ignore. Sunday I’m praying that God will open our hearts to be the prioritized people he has called us to be. I desire then that in…

Pray For Who?

Pray for Who?? If there was ever a passage that seemed to be written for today it’s 1 Timothy 2:1-7. Many are worried and wondering how we should live in our current day. It’s a similar dilemma that faced first century Christians. We’ll see how Paul’s instructions give us a perspective that moves beyond the moment and moves to an eternal viewpoint.…

God, Help Us

Petitions to God can either be self-centered or others-centered. In the second half of the Lord’s Prayer we see that the words “us” and “we” are as important as the word “you” was in the first half. Once we recognize God for who he is, it is entirely appropriate for us to bring our own needs and requests to him in prayer. On Sunday Patrick will explore this idea and…

The Joy of Praying “Our Father”

Another study on the Lord’s Prayer? Oftentimes the most familiar things in our lives become the least appreciated. Millions of people throughout history have memorized the same prayer, praying it over and over again to the point of monotony. This two-week series in Matthew 6:5-15 will help us remember that Jesus actually gave us words to pray! We will also learn how…

Christmas – After the Celebration

I hope your Christmas celebration was meaningful, and that is was a time of great joy with family, friends, and reflection. Sunday we think about life once the celebration is over. We will look back at the family life of Mary, Joseph, and Jesus in the excitement of Christmas and the faithfulness that was required in the quiet years that followed. It’s a great lesson as we…
