Head Scratcher | Philemon 08/04/2025

Head Scratcher | Philemon Our world doesn't understand equality because it doesn't understand love. In one of the most unique letters in the Bible, Paul challenges a wealthy man named Philemon to treat his runaway slave Onesimus as an equal. In this message we will see how God's love for everyone changes how we view and treat everyone. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/37661900

Head Scratcher | Benaiah 07/28/2025

Head Scratcher | Benaiah Benaiah was one of David’s “Mighty Men”—his toughest military fighting group. The Bible describes him as a fearless warrior who is noted for his heroic exploits. He was a brilliant fighter who famously “went down into a pit on a snowy day and killed a lion.” This message will focus on the courage God can give us to conquer our biggest threats. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/37576870

Head Scratcher | The Canaanite Woman 07/21/2025

Head Scratcher | The Canaanite Woman The story of the Canaanite woman is about a woman who asks Jesus to heal her daughter, and he does. Jesus’ response to her proves that God constantly enters new territory and breaks long-held and man-made boundaries. This message will remind us that everyone who trusts Jesus has a seat at his table /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/37480305

Head Scratcher | Ehud 07/14/2025

Head Scratcher | Ehud Sin, repent—Rinse and repeat. That was Israel’s spiritual resume, and they often paid dearly for it. But sometimes, a grace-filled God raised an unexpected leader to save them. In today’s message, God’s first-round draft choice was a left-handed (considered a defect in Jewish culture) man named Ehud and the incredible things God did through him. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/37398185

Head Scratcher | Mephibosheth 07/07/2025

Head Scratcher | Mephibosheth Mephibosheth was lame in both feet after falling when he was five years old. The fall occurred after his dad and grandfather died on the battlefield. Though an outcast in a harsh society due to his disability, he later lands a lifetime reward: a seat at the king’s table. This message will focus on God’s love and inclusion of broken people like us and the place we have in his family at his table. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/37398400

Head Scratcher | Hosea 06/30/2025

Head Scratcher | Hosea God sent Hosea into the red light district to marry a prostitute name Gomer. He wanted to use their unorthodox marriage as an example of his unwavering love for his people and how that love can redeem any sin in anyone’s life. In this message we will look at how God refuses to give up on us even when we give up on ourselves. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/37218615

Head Scratcher | Eutychus 06/23/2025

Head Scratcher | Eutychus Speed has become a virtue in our culture. We’ve bought into a lie that bigger is better and faster is better, but the results say otherwise. We may not be burned out, but we’re worn out and we’re racing through life and sleeping through experiences that really matter. Slowing down and smelling the roses is a must, and in this sermon we will learn how to do that from someone who didn’t. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/37113220

Baggage Claim | Carry On 06/16/2025

Baggage Claim | Carry On One of the reasons it’s so important to understand that we are free from sin’s bondage, penalty, and guilt is that it increases our capacity, through Jesus, to express joy and experience peace. This message will examine the gift of our freedom in Jesus and how it plays out in our lives in a positive way. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/37024435

Baggage Claim | Unzipped 06/09/2025

Baggage Claim | Unzipped Elijah was furious with the false prophets, so much so that he called down fire from heaven on them. Later, Jezebel threatened to kill him, so Elijah ran for his life. He sat down under a tree and begged God to take his life. Sadness and anger are often interwoven. This message will examine how anger debilitates us and how we can recover. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/36917485

Baggage Claim | Hang Ups 06/02/2025

Baggage Claim | Hang Ups The Enemy Behind My Pain (I Peter 5:8-10): When we face suffering, we need to remember that the enemy wants to use our pain to draw us away from God. This enemy is not to be taken lightly. He desires to devour us. This message will make us more aware of Satan’s intent to destroy us and how we can stand against his attacks. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/36817165

Baggage Claim | Dirty Clothes 05/27/2025

Baggage Claim | Dirty Clothes Peter’s story of guilt and shame is one for the ages. He was part of Jesus’ inner circle, but on the night of His arrest, Peter passionately denied Jesus. He even swore that he didn’t know Jesus. Then, they made momentary eye contact, and Peter ran off and wept bitterly. This message will examine how to recover from our worst sins. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/36727675

Undisputed | Over the Commonwealth 05/12/2025

Undisputed | Over the Commonwealth Our friends and neighbors see how we live and they know if we really love them. How we express our faith matters in big way at the local level. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/36532220

Undisputed | Over All the Earth 05/05/2025

Undisputed | Over All the Earth The good news about Jesus is something everyone needs to hear so that everyone has the opportunity to respond. We have the beautiful responsibility to take that good news to the very ends of the earth. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/36436830

Undisputed | Over Creation 04/28/2025

Undisputed | Over Creation /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/36337885

Undisputed | Over Death 04/21/2025

Undisputed | Over Death “He is not here, but has risen.” Those seven words spoken at the empty tomb changed everything for all of us. Because of Jesus’; death, burial, and resurrection we can experience new life. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/36243470

Holy Grit | Battling Sickness with Compassion 04/14/2025

Holy Grit | Battling Sickness with Compassion When we love someone who is hurting, it isn’t enough to express sympathy; in reality, that changes nothing. Empathy is a better approach. Empathy empowers compassion to move us to action. This message will remind us that we’re called to identify and understand other’s pain and serve them compassionately. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/36126965

Holy Grit | Confronting Legalism with Grace 04/07/2025

Holy Grit | Confronting Legalism with Grace Legalism is what it looks like when one is living on the wrong side of the Cross, not seeing our old nature buried with Jesus and our new life alive in Him. Jesus came to fulfill the law through grace—dying for our sins on the Cross. This message will remind us that legalism loses and grace wins. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/36035855

Holy Grit | Handling Criticism with Humility 03/31/2025

Holy Grit | Handling Criticism with Humility We all need to be prepared to deal with criticism. Criticism is inevitable in this life. As Christians, how we respond to and handle criticism reveals the level of our faith in God. Handling criticism gracefully is possible because Jesus vividly portrayed it, and He’s our example. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/35934305

Head-Heart-Hands | The Physical Side of Christianity 03/24/2025

Head-Heart-Hands | The Physical Side of Christianity Real faith helps people in real need. Our faith isn’t only for us; it’s also for others. Jesus demonstrated this daily and we have the opportunity to live in the same way. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/35836715

Head-Heart-Hands | The Emotional Side of Christianity 03/17/2025

Head-Heart-Hands | The Emotional Side of Christianity When our minds are set on the right things our emotions will follow. Our feelings can and should be shaped by who God is and what He has done for us. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/35722900

Head Heart Hands | The Intellectual Side of Christianity 03/10/2025

Head Heart Hands | The Intellectual Side of Christianity We have solid reasons for what we believe and every Christian needs to be well versed in them. This doesn’t mean we should try to bully people into accepting our positions on faith, but we can gently and humbly challenge those who oppose our beliefs. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/35605900

The Telephone Game | Gossip vs. Instruction 03/03/2025

The Telephone Game | Gossip vs. Instruction Our speech and our action need to align. Instructing others with our words is only effective when we demonstrate what we teach with our lives. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/35510585

The Telephone Game | Gossip vs. Encouragement 02/24/2025

The Telephone Game | Gossip vs. Encouragement How, when and what we speak to others matters deeply. When we encourage others with our words it reflects what God has done for us in giving us His Word. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/35406070

The Telephone Game | Gossip vs. Praise 02/17/2025

The Telephone Game | Gossip vs. Praise Controlling our words may be one of the most difficult things to do. The same mouths we praise God with also can be used to hurt and harm others. Understanding how powerful and dangerous words can be can also lead to using them for the ultimate good which is praising God. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/35312795

The Telephone Game | Gossip vs. Gospel 02/10/2025

The Telephone Game | Gossip vs. Gospel The Gospel is the good news of who Jesus is and what He has done. When we use our words to spread and share this good news beautiful things happen! Instead of choosing to spread gossip we can spread the gospel. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/35220715

Build a Strong Family | Scott Nickell 02/03/2025

The Baby & The Bathwater | Build a Strong Church 01/21/2025

The Baby & The Bathwater | Build a Strong Church The Bible describes the church as “the body of Christ.” In other words, the church should look a lot like Jesus. And one of the best things Jesus did for people was encourage them to serve and empower them to lead. Southland will always need an abundance of servant leaders. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/34940040

The Baby & The Bathwater | Build a Strong Life 01/13/2025

The Baby & The Bathwater | Build a Strong Life In order to have the kind of life we really want; we have to walk away from the current life we have. Jesus specializes in moving people in a new direction towards a stronger life. /episode/index/show/southlandcc/id/34834520
