Calm Before The Storm
Matthew 7:24-29 | A well-prepared life must be constructed on a true foundation. There are a lot of ideas, philosophies, and worldviews available to us, but only one will truly hold up when pain, suffering, and adversity comes our way.
How To Be Hated In 3 Simple Steps
Being a Christ-follower in today’s culture can be a challenge. To put it simply - it may be a quick path to hatred from certain people. But there is hope and a promise from Jesus.
The Countdown
Join in as Connor Hall leads us through the 24 hours leading up to Jesus’ crucifixion. When we consider what He prioritized, how can we apply those same priorities in our daily lives.
Jesus’ Messy Mission
Matthew 2:1-12 | The Magi or “Wise Men” were religious outsiders searching for Jesus. While the wise men traveled a long way to find Him, they didn’t travel nearly as far as Jesus did to find them. Jesus came for everyone and that includes you and me. In this message we will see that no matter how far we’ve run, how much we’ve done, or how broken we are, Jesus came to rescue us and restore us.
Jesus’ Messy Friends
Luke 2:1-20 | The shepherds who visited Jesus after his birth were a rough crowd. Shepherds were looked down upon, ostracized, and lived in the margins of a “respectable” society. The kind of people that surrounded Jesus when He was born were a foreshadowing of the kind of people He would befriend later in life. In this message, we will learn that Jesus was and still is a friend to sinners like us.
Jesus’ Messy Home
Matthew 1:18-25 | Mary and Joseph had to exercise a tremendous amount of faith to be obedient during Jesus’ birth. The rumors about Mary and Joseph swirled around Jesus for the rest of his life and his critics used those rumors against Him. In this message, we will look at how to overcome a rough childhood and generational behaviors that need to be broken.
Jesus’ Messy Family
Matthew 1:1-17 | Jesus’ family tree was full of sinful, broken people. In this message, we will see that Jesus didn’t come in spite of our broken families. He came for our broken families.
Serving the Forgotten
A disabled beggar asked Peter and John for money and they gave him true wealth instead (Acts 3). In this message, we will look at how Southland is serving the overlooked people groups of neighboring countries by meeting their physical needs.
Multiplying Church Leaders
An older couple named Priscilla and Aquila took a bright, young leader named Apollos under their wing and downloaded the wisdom they had into heart and mind (Acts 18). In this message, we will look at how Southland is investing in church leaders from around the world by providing them with a practical theological degree.
Protecting Children
Jesus gave a very clear command and very stark warning about harming children (Matthew 18). The most vulnerable people in the world are the children who are being taken advantage of and have no one to provide for them and protect them. In this message, we will look at how Southland is quietly serving an often overlooked demographic of boys who are being trafficked in the Dominican Republic and Haiti.
Reaching The Unreached
Jesus commanded his first followers to “go” (Matthew 28) and to “be his voice” (Acts 1) so every person on the planet would have a chance to hear the good news about God’s love. In this message, we will look at how Southland is targeting densely populated urban areas in Japan, one of the most unreached countries of the world.
Corinth
One of the oldest and most diverse cities in the world, Corinth was a hub of polytheism due to its port. People from all over the world traveled to and through this trade center, exchanging material goods and philosophical ideas that led to the worship of all kinds of false gods. In this message we will look at the cultural idols in the Commonwealth and a Biblical approach to deconstructing them.
