Love God. Love People. Make Disciples. Welcome to the the sermon podcasts from Seasons Church, located in Prattville, Alabama.
It is very easy to allow the results of what God has done to become our celebration and focus, to bring us joy, or even to cause us to marvel at unimportant things. But ... should they? As we study in the closing passage of John, Chapter 4, and the response of Jesus to a desperate plea of a Roman nobleman who needed an answer to prayer, our challenge (as was his) is to focus on the One who did the work, and not just the results. ...
Change takes confession, but it is not a matter of having "head knowledge", but inviting us to surrender fully to the calling of Jesus because He is truly, The Messiah! Pastor TJ Conwell unpacks and challenges us to consider what Jesus is teaching His disciples by asking ourselves IF we will hear the words of Jesus as being relevant to us, right now? As we consider Jesus's words to the Disciples, we must realize th...
In our final message of the series, "The Truth About Salvation", and as a powerful examination about where the woman at the well is in her life, we we must also be willing to see ourselves as well. What Jesus offered this woman is exactly what we have been offered also: The truth about who Jesus is - and our purpose being to worship the Father in spirit and truth. It is an honest look (and a setup to the next series) a...
When we consider the woman at the well’s responses to Jesus, something happens in all of us that almost feels ... natural. We either feel pity, or sorrow, or (maybe even) judgment for her … yet … aren't we in the same position today in our sin? Don't we need the same cleansing water to remove our sin? The simple answer to that is: "YES!" And, this is exactly what we see in the first part of this moving, and...
Jesus demonstrated total obedience through His suffering for us so that the one who believes on the Son is granted everlasting life! This is why and how John the Baptist does not fall into the trap of responding from “ego”, rather, he simply testifies to what is true, and lets it speak for itself! This is our calling today, and what we must be willing to grow into each and every day.
While we are alive, we still have an opportunity to know the God who sent His Son, Jesus, to die for us. It is in that truth that we must be willing to see, recognize, and repent of our sin and come to Him for rescue, for grace, and for salvation. Tomorrow is not promised, and we cannot afford to wait another minute because today could be our last opportunity to know Him.
Jesus tells us clearly that His arrival, to come from Heaven, was so that we might be able to defeat the things of wickedness in this world and have true life and redemption with the Father. Looking to Jesus is what brings true restoration to humanity, and sadly, even an esteemed teacher of Israel (Nicodemus) missed this. Today, we either believe in what Jesus has done for us, or we deny Him, and that is the easiest choice we may...
Salvation is about far more than fire insurance – however it must start with being reborn; with being devoted to the things OF God because if you've been made new, that is all that should matter TO you! When a man named Nicodemus (a Pharisee and member of the Sanhedrin) came to talk to Jesus in secret, what we see is his intent to find out about Jesus contrasted against Jesus's teaching focused on the things that truly m...
As Jesus confronted the "false religious" on-goings in the Temple during His first year of ministry, there is a very valuable lesson for the Church today to see and apply. As we read and study God’s Word - it must change you because IT has not changed! What we allow, or make excuses for, is a testimony to the way we truly feel about Christ and what He has done for us. Are we willing to confront sin, cast it out, and li...
When we see what Jesus can do, two things becomes evident: We either believe that He is the Messiah capable of providing for us, or, we deny His ability to do anything for us and call Him, and His Word, a liar. This wonderful story, however, has less to do with the miracle, and more to do with trusting Him to provide what you cannot. His mother trusted, the servants trusted, and even the host celebrated the result ... so, what ...
Concluding John, Chapter 1, we see the calling of Philip and the urgency he has to go tell Nathanael about the Messiah. If we are truly Christ followers, this same drive must be what we have today! We’ve seen in other texts the revelation that Jesus will return to take His Church home, and we rejoice at it. But, if we are not being obedient and instead rejoicing in our sin, how can we expect to be with Him? The simple truth her...
The calling of the first disciples is a story of incredible importance because it shows us how ordinary men (and women) - are called by the Messiah of God - to do extraordinary things in His name. And it is in that calling, we must remember that Jesus always sees the potential you will have, not just where you are now. In no place is that more evidenced in the name change that Andrew's brother, Simon (Peter), went through up...
Is the confession of John the Baptist, combined with the affirmation of God, enough for you to believe that Jesus is the Son of God? Or, do you still need Jesus to perform for you in order that you can be convinced that He is who He said He is? John the Baptist's testimony is so clear that we must be willing to admit, to confess, and to see Jesus as Lord - else we too will incur the wrath of God for the sins we refuse to rep...
John the Baptist confessed that Jesus came before everything, but more importantly he clearly shows us that humility is the KEY to serving Him completely. His crying out to "prepare the way" for the coming of Israel's Messiah leads us to one unambiguous and certain truth: God's Word is alive in Christ, and each of us need to be redeemed through Him!
Jesus became the physical representation of hope from God in a form that we could easily understand: relationship. He became God's part of His covenantal relationship that God desired with His creation by becoming what we needed most: the intercessor between God’s righteousness and our sin. Join us as we unpack John 1:14-18 and let's discover this incredible truth together!
John's introduction of John the Baptist's ministry, life, and purpose can be one of much revelation to us - if we would be willing to see that we TOO are called to be just as faithful and share what we know about Jesus. The ministry of John the Baptist can often be one of great confusion, or uncertainty, or even bewilderment. However, looking at these simple verses, we can see that all God calls us to do is be faithful ...
John’s recollection of Jesus’ ministry, as a man who walked alongside of Him, is crucial for us because it teaches us exactly who Jesus is. It demonstrates that His light shines in the darkness to reveal the goodness of God (which provides us rescue) and because His life comes from God it cannot be overtaken by our flaws, insecurities, or even our own sinful choices. In effect, it means that because of Who He is, even our darkest...
One of the final words that Isaiah offers us today is to consider what eternity looks like in the face of how we are living today. Those who willingly rebel against God will not see an eternal reward but rather punishment, but those who will tremble at His word and remain faithful to Christ NOW will be rewarded in eternity. This is the cry of this prophet, it is the ongoing ministry of our church, and the message we must be willi...
Isaiah demonstrates a very unique position in chapters 63 and 64 as he pleads with God to hear, forgive, and rescue His people. Why? Because he knew that there is no way we (as a creation) could be forgiven without God’s (the Creator's) direct intervention. This is the message and hope that Gospel brings, and Isaiah knew this truth and shared it with the nation of Israel.
God's promises of protection, provision, and upholding a covenant with His people are a wonderful focal point for us today. However, these ALL come with a catch and that catch is: The only way to benefit from any of this is to receive the promise of rescue, through Jesus, yourself!
