In order to truly embody the message of the Gospel we will find it necessary to live sacrificially. If Jesus lived sacrificially, there is no way for us to truly communicate His message without doing so as well. This teaching will challenge you...

In this passage Jesus is spoken of in the highest terms. He is the Creator, the Sustainer, and the Redeemer of all things. If Jesus literally has the blueprints for all of creation, certainly we can trust Him to have the blueprints for our live...

It can be tempting to think that our spiritual growth is all about the work we put in. And while it is true that we have work to do, we cannot replace the work that God by His grace does in our lives. Can we learn to see God working in our live...

Why do we read the Bible? We read so that we may know Jesus better. The Word of God is meant to draw us closer to the Son of God. Knowing His Word and loving Him are inseparable realities. However, it can be easy to forget this. How can we read...

As we read the Word of God, are we reading for information only, or are we allowing the Word to transform us. Are we letting the Word into our hearts to  change our lives? Are we becoming new people because we interact with God’s Word regu...

The Word of God has been assembled over 1500 years, with 40 authors in three different languages. The key that holds it all together is that God is speaking through the words to us. We can trust this book, because God has spoken. The words aren...

Have you ever wondered where the Bible came from? How did we get it? Why should we trust it? Is it authoritative? This week we tackle some of those questions as we begin our series on the Word of God!

What gets in the way of you saying “yes” to Jesus in your life? Is it time? Insecurity? Opposition? We all face obstacles and roadblocks, but how can we learn to overcome them and a big yes for Jesus in our hearts?

Often we say “yes” to many things we think are important in life. At times, these commitments take the place of the path God truly wants us to be on. We fill our lives up with so much that we tend to neglect the opportunities to serve, lead and...

When God asks us to do something, do we lean YES or NO or MAYBE? In this teaching we talk about how to have a YES in our heart for Jesus!

The Biblical picture of the church is one of a group of people “called out” to work together towards a common goal. It is a picture of unity and diversity, where everyone has a place and a role to fill, but these roles are not all the same. Do ...

In this teaching, we look at three quotes from Jesus that every Christian should take some time to consider. The quotes invite us to look at our relationship with Jesus. They challenge us to grow closer to Him, to follow Him more fully, and to ...

We all deal with worry, stress, and anxiety at some level in our lives. There are times when it is more pronounced—stressors in our lives arise that can take away our peace and leave us feeling vulnerable. What if there were things we could do ...

Last week we talked about “What If” Anxiety - the anxiety we carry in us about things that might happen. This week we talk about “What Is” Anxiety - the anxiety we carry about stuff that is actually happening in our lives! What causes you anxie...

We spend a lot time being anxious about things that haven’t even happened yet. "What if" this or that happens? In a beautiful teaching in the book of John, Jesus offers some profound insight on how to trust Him in our anxiety. How we can not on...

The #1 cause of anxiety for most people is financial stress. In this teaching, we look at the book of Proverbs to find lessons we can apply to our lives to live in peace financially.

Worship was central to David’s life. As we read the story of David we learn of his desire to build God a temple to worship Him. David had a deep passion to worship God with his whole heart. Reading about Davids' passion provokes questions we ar...

There are a lot of times in life when we are waiting. Waiting to make decisions, waiting on answers to prayer, and waiting for big life moments. The word “waiting” carries with it the connotation of inaction, however Biblical waiting is quite t...

This week we look at a promise found in Romans 8. In this passage we read that, if God is for us, no one can be against us! This powerful passage illustrates the incredible work that Jesus did for us on the cross. He did the work for us, that w...

In this teaching we look deeply at the story of David and Goliath. What is this story really about? Is it about David being a hero, defying the odds and overcoming a giant? Or is it about God being bigger than any of our problems? As we study t...

David starts his story as an overlooked and taken for granted shepherd. He ends as the greatest King of Israel’s history. What changed? It was nothing he did. It was all God! God chose him and filled him with His Spirit. Just like He did with J...

The church isn’t a building! The church are the people of God gathered together, empowered by God and on mission for the world! At CityLight, we believe that “every piece matters.” In this message, we explore a passage from 1 Peter that beautif...

It seems counterintuitive, but Biblical sacrifice doesn’t lead to pain and sadness, it leads to joy. The sacrifice that Jesus invites us into is an act of worship. That act of worship brings us closer to Him and works to set us free from the po...
