New Life Church Sermons

In 1 Corinthians 13, Paul teaches that love is the defining mark of Christian maturity and the foundation of every spiritual gift and ministry. He reminds believers that impressive abilities, knowledge, and acts of sacrifice are meaningless without genuine love. Biblical love is not merely an emotion but a Christ-centered commitment expressed through patience, kindness, humility, forgiveness, and perseverance. Paul contrasts the temporary nature of spiritual gifts with the eternal nature of l...

​​In 1 Corinthians 5, the apostle Paul confronts a shocking case of sexual immorality that the Corinthian church had tolerated and even become proud of. The passage reminds us that sin distorts God’s design, destroys lives, and spreads like yeast through the entire church family. Rather than ignoring or celebrating sin, Paul calls the church to respond with broken-hearted sorrow, challenges them to deal with it head on, and seek the ultimate restoration of this man to God and the church famil...

In chapter 3 of his letter to the church in Corinth, Paul confronts the church’s spiritual immaturity, which had produced jealousy, division, and loyalty to human leaders rather than Christ. He reminds them that pastors and leaders are only servants, while God alone produces spiritual growth. Because Jesus Christ is the only true foundation of the church, believers must be careful how they build their lives and ministries. One day every believer’s work will be tested, revealing what was truly...

They are called, sanctified, and held together by Him. Paul begins with gratitude, thanking God for the grace already at work among them, which reframes how we see a messy church. Instead of leading with frustration, he leads with thanksgiving rooted in God’s faithfulness. Yet h...

This weekend, we looked back and celebrated all God has done over the past year in and through the life of our church family. We also began looking ahead to everything He’s calling us into during the next season. As we reflect on Jesus feeding the 5,000, we’re reminded that God delights to work through people who are willing to play their part in the story He’s writing in the world. Often, it’s only after we step out in faith and obedience that God moves most powerfully. As we remember how Go...

This week we saw that serving is at the heart of following Jesus. We were confronted with how easily comfort, busyness, or fear can keep us from stepping into a life of service to Jesus. God has entrusted every one of us with time to give, talent to use, and treasure to invest for His purposes. Serving isn’t about doing everything, but faithfully doing something with what God has placed in our hands. The invitation is to stop holding back and begin stewarding our lives in a way that reflects ...
