Sermons from Luke

Wanting Jesus on Our Terms

Date: September 20, 2026 | Speaker: Phil Pike

One of the saddest moments in Scripture is when Jesus wept over the city of Jerusalem, knowing the very people He’d come to save would reject Him. They wanted a Savior who would deliver them from the Romans, not one who would deliver them from their sin. And people today aren’t so different. Many want Jesus to grant their wishes and fix their problems, but they don’t want Him to rule over their heart. They come with a list of demands, not a life laid down. Have you accepted Jesus for who He truly is — Savior and Lord of all?

No One Is Beyond His Reach

Date: September 13, 2026 | Speaker: Phil Pike

During the most stressful week of His life, just days before the cross, Jesus stopped to spend time with the most hated man in town and brought him to salvation. He wasn’t focused on Himself; He was committed to seeking and saving the lost right to the very end. And Jesus is still seeking people today—the lost, the broken, the hurting, and the overlooked. He comes to us with mercy, not condemnation, and no one is beyond His reach. He knows us, loves us, and calls us by name. The question is, when He calls, will you respond?

The Kind of People God Welcomes

Date: August 16, 2026 | Speaker: Phil Pike

When you think of “sinners” who might be excluded from God’s kingdom, does anyone come to mind? If so, you may be entering dangerous territory. The Pharisees were certain of their own seat at God’s table, convinced that the tax collectors and prostitutes had no such place. But Jesus came precisely for the people the religious crowd wrote off. He welcomes the broken, the fallen, the forgotten with open arms the moment they repent and turn to Him. God’s grace reaches farther than our judgments, and we may be surprised by those who are on heaven’s guest list!

Faith Beyond the Mountaintop

Date: July 12, 2026 | Speaker: Phil Pike

We’ve all had mountaintop encounters with God where the world fades away and His presence is so real that we want to stay there forever. Those are moments of sheer glory, but if we’re not careful, we can spend our lives chasing the next spiritual peak instead of learning to trust and worship Him in the valley. The truth is, faithfulness isn’t formed on the mountaintop. It is forged in the ordinary routine of daily life. So keep your eyes fixed on Him, your ears attentive to His voice, and your feet committed to following Him through the highs and the lows.

Living by Faith – Part 1

Date: June 28, 2026 | Speaker: David Cannon

Scripture teaches that faith is the only means through which God’s grace is available to us. We even read how it’s impossible to please God without faith. Needless to say, faith is crucial, and God says his righteous people will live by faith. So, what does it mean to live by faith? Join us as we take a look at what Scripture says about faith and how living by faith might look for us today.

The Miracle of Surrender

Date: June 7, 2026 | Speaker: Phil Pike

There are times when the need in front of us far exceeds our resources—the bill, the grief, the calling that seems miles beyond us—and we’re forced to admit that what we have is not enough. But those are the very moments we discover the tender heart of Jesus, who sees our hidden struggles. He invites us to bring Him whatever we have, no matter how inadequate it feels, and watch as He blesses it in ways we never could on our own. The question is not whether what we have is enough, but whether we’re willing to trust Him and place it in His hands. When we reach the end of our sufficiency, we discover that God’s provision has only begun.

The Danger of Being Good Enough

Date: April 19, 2026 | Speaker: Phil Pike

There are basically two kinds of people: those who know they are sinners, and those who refuse to admit that they are. Some are so weighed down by their failures that they feel unworthy to come to Jesus. But they need to know that He came to lift up the fallen and restore the broken. Others don’t think they need forgiveness at all, and are kept away by pride. But the truth is, every one of us has sinned and stands in need of a Savior. And He has promised to receive all who come to Him by faith!

He is Faithful When We Falter

Date: April 12, 2026 | Speaker: Phil Pike

We have all experienced the dark night of the soul—that crippling blackness that settles over us and refuses to leave. In those seasons, even the strongest faith can question everything it once believed. John the Baptist, the man Jesus called the greatest ever born, found himself in a prison cell wrestling with doubt and wondering if Jesus really was the Promised One. Yet Jesus did not meet John’s uncertainty with rebuke. He responded with tenderness and grace. We are reminded that our darkest seasons do not disqualify us. They simply reveal our deep need for a Savior who remains faithful even when we falter.

Children of Light: Love vs. Hate

Date: March 15, 2026 | Speaker: David Cannon

From the very beginning of creation, God desired to bring forth life out of darkness, so He said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. This separation is representative of two opposing kingdoms; one to which His children belong, and one to which His enemies belong. Scripture tells us that God is light, and there is no darkness in Him, and those who belong to Him are children of light. Join us as we look at some of the attributes of each kingdom, and the separating choices each person will face as a reflection of the kingdom to which they choose to belong.

Children of Light: Peace vs. Trouble

You’re Not Too Broken for Jesus

Date: October 12, 2025 | Speaker: Phil Pike

So often we allow out worst failures, fears and scars of the past to define who we are and convince us that we’re too broken or too far gone for help. Yet Jesus doesn’t recoil from our mess; He steps into it with compassion and mercy, reminding us that grace is not for those who appear perfect, but for those who know they’re not. In Him, the untouchable becomes clean, the paralyzed soul walks again, and the outcast finds a home. He’s not waiting for you to be cleaned up or strong enough; He’s inviting you to bring every unhealed part of yourself to Him so He can make you truly whole.

Authority That Shakes the Darkness

Date: October 5, 2025 | Speaker: Phil Pike

Our world is ravaged by sin and filled with broken people as far as the eye can see. Some days it feels like the kingdom of darkness is winning. But our hope stands firm in knowing that the same Jesus who healed diseases, calmed storms, and silenced evil spirits will come again to finish what He started. His displays of power on this earth were only a preview of the day when He will return to vanquish sin & darkness forever. The One who cast out demons will cast out Satan himself. The hands that restored the sick will make all things new!
