Sermons on Love

This is Love

As we move into the final week of Advent, we light the candle symbolizing love. Our culture has trouble defining love. In fact, love might mean different things to different people at different times. But God has told us and shown us what love is. God Himself is the perfection of love. And he has demonstrated that love in sending his Son to be the sacrifice and substitute…

Giving and Receiving Wisdom, part 1

Welcome to Chapel City Church! We are so glad that you have come to worship with us today! So far in the Book of Proverbs, we have worked to lay the foundation for our application. We know that wisdom begins with the fear of the Lord. We know that wisdom comes from God through his word, and that in order to act wisely we must move in humility. This week we will begin…

The Law of Love

Welcome to Chapel City Church! This week we will open up the second chapter of James with an example of what love looks like. He closed chapter 1 by pointing out that pure and undefiled religion meant caring for the outcast and the other, as well as being unstained by the world. Chapter 2 works through personal favoritism, and how that response goes directly against what…

The Son & the Shepherd

Welcome to Chapel City Church! We are less than a week from Christmas, and it’s hard to believe how fast the season has gone. Our prayer is that you have found encouragement, joy, and rest as we have thought about the constant faithfulness of God. He has kept His promises to His people, and we know that he will continue to. This week we come to the promise of a…

Shepherding & Submission

One of the major themes that Peter has dealt with in his letter is the Christian’s response to authority. For much of chapters 2 and 3, he made it clear that our humble response to human authority will be a telling demonstration of the power of the gospel. Now, as he prepares to close his letter, Peter instructs his readers with their response to one another in the…

I’m a Christian… Now What?

Welcome to Chapel City Church!  We are glad you have come to worship with us.  Our youth group just returned from Summer Camp.  We rejoice that some students have professed faith in the Lord Jesus for the first time, and a number more have committed to more diligently follow him!  After coming to Jesus some natural questions are, “What does it mean to follow Jesus?  I…

Bearing Burdens

Welcome to Chapel City Church! We are glad that you have come to worship with us through singing, giving, studying God’s word, and encouraging our brothers and sisters in Christ. As we open God’s word, we will be working through the first part of Galatians 6. While we strive to demonstrate the fruit of the spirit in our lives, there are times in every believer’s life when…

The Normal Christian Life, part 1

Welcome to our time of worship here at Chapel City Church! We are so glad that you have joined us. We are moving through the Book of Galatians, and the last few weeks have been spent looking at those things that are produced when we walk in the power of the flesh. Strife, enmities, anger, all of those sinful byproducts of the love of self. But Paul began chapter 5 by…

Called to Freedom

Good morning and welcome to Chapel City Church. We are so thankful that you have joined us for our time of worship today, and our prayer is that you are encouraged in your faith as we sing, pray, and study God’s Word together. This week we will continue working through Galatians chapter 5. In verse 13 Paul comes back to the idea that as Christians, we have been…

The Shepherd’s Heart

Welcome to Chapel City Church! We are so glad that you have come to worship with us today. We want to be a congregation that prays for one another, and with one another. If there is a way that we can be praying specifically for you, we would love to know that. Please reach out to our church office via phone or email. Prayer is one of the ways that we practically show our…

Anticipating the Advent: The Gift of Love

Thank you for joining us for our time of corporate worship here at Chapel City Church! As we draw closer to Christmas, the anticipation is building. Some are anticipating time with family and friends, some giving and receiving gifts, and some are waiting expectantly for a break from work or school. As Christians, we know that we are not only waiting to celebrate the first…
