From Gloom to Peace 12/23/2018

From Gloom to Peace We live in a world where everyone strives for peace. It's a word most often used during the Christmas season.

Joy for the Fearful 12/10/2018

Joy for the Fearful As we look at this subject of joy considering Advent, in light of the waiting and the anticipation they felt, we’re drawn to this reality found only in the Gospel, that just as hope was a possession for those who trusted the promise of God, so is Joy. /episode/index/show/newcitychurchme/id/7869746

Hope Is A Real Possession 12/09/2018

Hope Is A Real Possession The season of advent is for remembering the hundreds of years that passed from the first promise God made to rescue his people from sin and judgement, till the arrival of Jesus, when all that was necessary for redemption was provided in the incarnation, life, death and resurrection of the Son of God. /episode/index/show/newcitychurchme/id/7850564

Faith and the Right Burden True faith in Christ, the kind the Bible teaches, has no unnecessary yoke of burden, but rather brings cleansing of the heart, freedom and joy. /episode/index/show/newcitychurchme/id/7187075

Perseverance In The Gospel 10/08/2018

Perseverance In The Gospel Opposition is a true test of one’s missional focus. As you will discover when you look at the story of Scripture, when God’s people advance, opposition rises. It's no different for the Christian today. Through faith in the Gospel we have strength to persevere. /episode/index/show/newcitychurchme/id/7141447

Give Like Jesus 09/06/2018

Give Like Jesus Guest speaker, Pastor Barry Murry, preaching a message in our "Like Jesus" series called, Give Like Jesus. As Christians we are to be givers. It's not about money, or any one thing. It's about our whole lives modeling the true Giver, Jesus Christ. We are to be, like Paul, and like Christ, poured out as a drink offering for the sake of the Gospel and for others. /episode/index/show/newcitychurchme/id/7015255

Lead Like Jesus 08/27/2018

Lead Like Jesus A new 5 part series called, Like Jesus. Are you like Jesus? You probably fall short like all of us do.

A Missions-Driven Church 07/31/2018

A Missions-Driven Church Many hear the word, missions, and are overwhelmed by thoughts of fear, unpreparedness and lack of confidence. Here in Acts 13, we’re getting to see another aspect of God’s mission and how He calls people like you and me to face opposition for the sake of the Gospel and the glory of God. If you’ve committed your life to following Jesus as Lord and Savior, if you're a disciple, then you ARE a missionary. /episode/index/show/newcitychurchme/id/6870700

The Christian Obedience 07/09/2018

Dealing With Criticism 06/25/2018

Dealing With Criticism People who criticize to tear down forget the essence of the Gospel altogether, that none of us deserve grace, all of us deserve hell, and yet, Christ died for us. /episode/index/show/newcitychurchme/id/6741766

God of the OT is not the God of the NT (Lies We Believe Series) 06/10/2018

God of the OT is not the God of the NT (Lies We Believe Series) “Christian” leaders are swaying people to turn from orthodox truths about God to a largely make-believe picture of God, and in the process, abandon fundamental Christian doctrines like sin, substitutional atonement, and the existence of Hell. We must not be swayed. Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever. /episode/index/show/newcitychurchme/id/6688275

Church Membership Isn't Necessary (Lies We Believe) 06/04/2018

Church Membership Isn't Necessary (Lies We Believe) “Once you choose Christ, you must choose His people too. it’s a package deal. Choose the Father and the Son, and you have to choose the whole family – which you do through a local church.” -Leeman /episode/index/show/newcitychurchme/id/6666969

The Church Doesn't Need Me 05/28/2018

The Church Doesn't Need Me The goal with this message is to convince all you from the Scriptures that because your faith is in Christ you are a valued member of Christ’s body, and absolutely necessary for the Kingdom. /episode/index/show/newcitychurchme/id/6641366

Jesus Will Fix All Your Problems 05/21/2018

Jesus Will Fix All Your Problems What is dearest to each of us; more than money, more than relationships, more than education or health? It's our self. It is the sinful, willful self that stands in opposition to following and loving Jesus with all our hearts. Jesus is telling us that to be his followers something has to die, because the very one we’re choosing to follow HAD to be rejected and die. This is fundamentally different than the “Jesus will fix all your problems” gospel. /episode/index/show/newcitychurchme/id/6617542

Motherhood: A Faith Movement 05/16/2018

Motherhood: A Faith Movement The only hope for motherhood, or anyone for that matter, is to find your identity and worth in the Father who loves you and gave His Son for you. /episode/index/show/newcitychurchme/id/6601280

Lies We Believe 05/07/2018

Lies We Believe We're addressing a series of lies that people often believe, whether within or outside of the Church. In part 1 we're looking at lies we believe about God. The lie is, "Jesus is not enough." The Bible teaches us that Jesus, the God-man, God in human flesh is THE preeminent one. He is THE Supreme glory and reason for our existence.He is enough. /episode/index/show/newcitychurchme/id/6564317

The Gospel Kills Our Prejudices 05/01/2018

The Gospel Kills Our Prejudices Every time Jesus went out of His way to speak to those who the society deemed less and unworthy he was mirroring for us what the Gospel does in and through us. Who in your life right now would God say as He did to Peter, "Make haste and accompany them without hesitation?" /episode/index/show/newcitychurchme/id/6543243

Walking in Step with Christ 04/17/2018

Walking in Step with Christ Peter had witnessed the love, compassion, power and authority of Jesus. He had seen him with broken people. He’s seen him go off and pray to the Father to receive strength. And Peter, only a man but filled with the Spirit, is traveling all over Israel and visiting saints in every town. As he’s walking in faith God is opening doors to show His power in people’s lives. /episode/index/show/newcitychurchme/id/6490622

Built up for Multiplication 04/12/2018

Built up for Multiplication Believers multiplied. Peace multiplied. Joy in God multiplied because the disciples were telling the world that Jesus defeated sin and darkness at the cross and is the only way to God. Opposition will not stop. Life will not stop. But there is comfort for us in the Holy Spirit. Not ease. Comfort. Comfort that keeps us pressing for Kingdom growth in this dark world. /episode/index/show/newcitychurchme/id/6473800

United in a Resurrection Like His 04/06/2018

United in a Resurrection Like His In order to unite His people to himself sin and death had to be conquered, stood upon and crushed. His death absorbed the punishment we deserved, dealing with the penalty and power of sin, and His resurrection solidified His victory and his claims. Through faith in His death a man can be raised together and united with Him in new life. /episode/index/show/newcitychurchme/id/6453396

Intentional About Sin and Evil 03/29/2018

Intentional About Sin and Evil Without Christ you have no power over sin and temptation. As often as you fail to be intentional about fleeing from sin and being prepared for every temptation, that is how often the Devil will strike to deceive you and take your focus from Christ. /episode/index/show/newcitychurchme/id/6421684
