"Were you FAITHFUL or FECKLESS in 2014?"

Do you like "weak" coffee? Do you like lukewarm... room temperature coffee? If you are like most people, you like your coffee either HOT or ICE COLD... but in between it is just plain nasty.

 

God looks at our lives in a similar fashion. Jesus said in our passage today He would prefer us to be either HOT or COLD... but not in between. A lukewarm Christian to God is just nasty!

 

Listen to today's message as Pastor Kamron reflects on your life in 2014 and encourages you to be honest with yourself. Were you FAITHFUL or FECKLESS in your walk with God? Let's decide to make 2015 a year of FAITHFULNESS!

"Is Jesus PROMINENTLY Placed in YOUR Christmas Collage?"

The Christmas Season is upon us. The Christmas parties, the Christmas presents, food, music and movies. You pull out your "ugly Christmas sweater" and spread Christmas cheer with a smile and a hug. You spend extra time with co-workers, friends and lots of family...

 

Christmas is exhausting! We get busy, distracted... engaged in conversation and focused on prepping for each event. And after all the presents are opened, most of the food is consumed and all the relatives leave... you will breathe a sigh of relief, call it good... and call Christmas done.

 

...without even realizing that Jesus was never invited to your party.

 

Listen to today's message as Pastor Kamron shares a heart felt call to PROMINENTLY place Jesus BACK in your Christmas this year. You won't regret it.

"Leave Boldly"

We are in the final message this week of our "One Month to Live" series. Today Pastor Kamron talks about Leaving Boldly. If you are living a life with NO regrets... it is a lot easier to leave boldly knowing you have done all God has asked of you and lived life to the fullest!

 

Hopefully if you have been following along in this series you are beginning to apply these truths to your life. Why wait until the end of life to be intentional... when you can do it today and live your WHOLE life the way Jesus lived. "Live Passionately", "Love Completely", "Learn Humbly" and listen to today's message on LEAVING BOLDLY.

"Learn Humbly" One Month to Live SERIES

We have learned a few principles from the life of Jesus over the past few weeks on our journey to living a life of no regrets. This Sunday's is probably one the hardest of the 4 to grab ahold of... not that "Living Passionately" and "Loving Completely" are necessarily easy!

 

Today's message focuses on our need to "Learn Humbly". To live a life like Jesus, humble and obedient to God... is just plain hard. But the rewards to a humble lifestyle are GREAT and the benefits are well worth the sacrifice to self. (Really the death of pride... be honest, we all have some.)

 

Listen to today's message as Pastor Kamron shares from his heart the need to humble ourselves before God as we continue to ask, "If I only had one month to live, what would I change?" I bet pride would be thrown out the window like and old sock and you would quickly humble yourself before your God.

"Love Completely" One Month to Live SERIES

We are continuing our One Month to Live series this morning as we look to Jesus for principles we need to live a life with NO regrets. Last week we looked at the need to LIVE PASSIONATELY. This week we are talking about the need to LOVE COMPLETELY!

 

Jesus LOVED COMPLETELY! To accomplish this in OUR lives we must view relationships in a new way. We need to CHERISH people instead of trying to CHANGE them. We need to FORGIVE those who have hurt us. We need to be faithful to those we have COMMITTED to. We also need to SERVE those who can't help us.

 

Embrace life by loving COMPLETELY and you will be one step closer to a life with NO regrets. Listen to today's message and see if you can't LOVE more!

"Live Passionately" One Month to Live SERIES

"If you only had One Month to Live, what would you change about your life?" That is the question we are asking throughout this series. Let's live our lives INTENTIONALLY and on PURPOSE! Let's live our lives with NO regrets! It IS possible and you CAN do it.

 

Today's message focuses on the first of four principles drawn from the last 30 days of Jesus life. If we want to live a "no regrets" life, we must LIVE PASSIONATELY like Jesus did. Listen to today's message as Pastor Kamron shares some tools to find, follow and USE your God given passions...

"What is Us?"

We were honored to host guest speaker, Pastor J.p. Dorsey this week. (Director at Northpoint Bible College in Grand Rapids, MI) Pastor J.p. shared a message that will challenge your view of relationship and community. He asks the question, "What is Us?"

 

"Community is not the absence of conflict... it's the presence of relationship."

 

Now grammatically that might sound ill spoken... but in application it is correctly presented. (But you'll have to listen to the message to understand!) Based on 1 Corinthians 3:5-16... don't miss this great message on "What is Us?"

"LIFE GROUPS - Connection Day"

We are "Connecting" our LIFE GROUPS here at Onaway Assembly of God. Today's message is a combination of a Communion Sunday and the need for meeting with one another. Pastor Kamron is teaching from Hebrews 10 which happens to touch on both.

 

Are you finding motivation to love from others in the church? We all need it... and todays passage shows us HOW! LIFE GROUPS will be a small part of making this happen in our church. Listen to today's message to see if you agree...

"Get a LIFE... Group!"

We need each other... it's not a selfish need, it's a necessary NEED! The Bible is clear that we are to minister and LIVE our lives together as Believers in Jesus.

 

In the next few weeks, we are going to be starting LIFE GROUPS here at Onaway Assembly of God. This is an exciting opportunity to connect with others in our church. Maybe you aren't sure if it's necessary? Please listen to today's message as Pastor Kamron makes a case for small groups in our church...

"Faith Required"

This message is simply... about Faith. According to the Bible, Faith is forever... it is right there with Hope and Love. If Faith is something I will have forever and if WITHOUT Faith it is impossible to please God... then it is important and necessary for ME!

Today's message is really an encouragement to not only recognize the "weight" or the "value" of our faith... but also the fact that you can LOSE your faith if you are not careful. Listen and see if your faith is where it should be... fully dependent on Jesus your Savior.

Do you ever find yourself in a place where you are overwhelmed? Do you ever have so much to do, so many people counting on you or simply something TOO big for you to possibly handle?

 

           Overwhelmed...

 

Listen to today's message as Pastor Kamron shares from his heart the decision you need to make when that moment comes. It's not IF you will find yourself overwhelmed, but WHEN? The decision you make when you find yourself overwhelmed and at the point of breaking, will either MAKE or BREAK you...

"Outrageous Love"

Jesus commands us to love God, to love our neighbor... even to love our ENEMIES! But just before He was arrested and hung on the cross, Jesus gave us a NEW commandment in John 13 that take loving each other to a WHOLE new level... let's just call it OUTRAGROUS love!

 

Are you obeying this new command Jesus give us here? Are you loving your fellow brothers and sisters in Christ with the SAME love that Jesus loves you with? Listen today's message as Pastor Kamron shares from his heart a message that has far reaching implications in your life.

"One on One w/Jesus"

What if John 3:16, one of the Church's greatest verses to spread the gospel... was originally shared to just ONE man by Jesus. This verse has been shared to billions of people in the past 2,000 years. It has been shouted from pulpits, preached on the streets... broadcast to millions over the radio and TV...

 

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." (NIV)

 

You have probably heard it... many times. But what if Jesus originally spoke this life changing verse to just ONE man late at night. Not to 4,000 or 6,000 people on a hilltop. Just a "One on One" conversation with Jesus. Well... it was. Listen to today's message and see that Jesus is STILL sharing this same message "One on One" with YOU, today!

"REAL Jesus"

We all have responsibilities and duties that require our attention on a daily basis... like family needs, bills and basic necessities like food and water. We all have desires for our lives... "where am I going?" and "what do I want to accomplish?". BUT... if we are not careful, those same responsibilities and desires will quietly drown out the ONE thing we truly need...

 

JESUS.

 

Jesus is all that we need and should be the "top dog" on the list of things that we want. We need to find that place where we can honestly and humbly say... "Jesus is EVERYTHING to me!" In this Sunday's message, Pastor Kamron shares from his heart on a message that he feels very passionately is one of the most important "realities" that we need to come to grips with. The "REAL Jesus" is more than a symbol or a friend... He is life itself.

 

Listen for yourself and see if some of your own priorities and perspectives need to change today:

"What If... Jesus Will REALLY Give You Rest?"

What if Jesus is willing to take your burdens of stress and frustration and worry and doubt for tomorrow... and trade them for REST? What if the very struggles in your life that you don't know what to do with... Jesus would trade you RIGHT NOW for rest? What if?

 

Listen to this message Pastor Kamron shares that tells us just that! Jesus WILL give you rest in your life if you will just choose to hand him your problems, your fears, your uncertainties... and truly TRUST God is in control in your life.

"Can I Transform?"

"Can I Transform?" Can I change into the "new creation" that the Bible says God wants me to be? In a world of a million plus distractions, pitfalls and traps called sin... CAN I possibly see myself transform? (Or am I STUCK in this wreck I call my life for the rest of my days?)

 

Listen to today's message as Pastor Kamron takes us through Romans 12:1-2 as the key to finding the answer. The better answer actually lies in changing the question... but you'll have to listen to find our for yourself!

"Remain..."

This message based on Jesus instructions in John 15... is pretty clear, REMAIN in Him. STAY connected to your source of everything you need to succeed in this life. ABIDE in Jesus in every area of your life. There is a great way to know if you are heeding this truth and it only requires you to answer this very simply question:

 

"Are you bearing FRUIT in your life?"

 

Listen to Pastor Kamron share some potentially tough truths that we all need to keep fresh in our minds. Whether you are a new Believer in Christ or a seasoned Saint... we can all use something from today's message. Take a listen for yourself!

"Pure Christian"

We see the "Pure Michigan" Ads all over the TV and print ads... and they work! Even those of us who already LIVE in Michigan want to visit again after watching them. WHY? What is it that these ads do so well that gives you a desire to check out Michigan for yourself?

 

Take that same concept and apply to your life as a Christian! What should we be aware of in our daily life that others are watching? How well does MY life give others a desire to check out Jesus for themselves? (And what do we do to sabotage that purpose too?)

 

Listen to today's message as Pastor Kamron lays out a basic set of guidelines we can find in 1 Timothy 4:12. Let's be Pure Christians that reflect Jesus in a way that make others desire to meet Him too!

"Pentecost is Still Happening!"

I have always appreciated Pentecost Sunday as a remembrance of the Holy Spirit falling on 120 believers in Acts 2... along with 3,000 new believers making a decision to follow Jesus after Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, shared the Gospel.

 

I smile and thank God for that day... 2,000 years ago... when "they" received the promised gift of the Holy Spirit.

 

But this year I was challenged... and so I challenge you as well. Was Pentecost in Acts chapter 2 a Special One-Time Event? Were only a select group able to experience what happened on that day? OR... does God "Admit ALL", including US today?

 

In this message I tackle this very question... and the fact that Pentecost STILL happens today, should and will change the way you live your life. (Because God has an amazing plan and purpose for your life that is so much greater and bigger than you can imagine!)

"One More Time!"

Ask yourself this question... "When is it OK to quit dipping?"

 

I know, I know... the question seems odd out of context. But as we read the story of Naaman in 2 Kings 5... we see the correlation between Naaman's obedience to "dip" 7 times in a river to receive the healing he needed from God, and OUR obedience in life to obey God even when we don't understand why.

 

When IS it ok to stop dipping, to stop following, to stop obeying God? Find out in this message and purpose in your heart to run your race well!
