Surprise
From 2015. A surprising message that has been brought forth from the archives.
Recall
They looked back at the words recorded in John 2. They knew exactly what they meant. We, however, have lost their intent and impact. Today, we get both back.
Positioning - Alignment #2 - NL
This powerful sermon is very different than the one spoken at Palestine with the same title. Both are excellent with my nod to this one for its delivery and message.
Positioning- Alignment #2
Moving message with comments like, “ I was filled with joyful tears after this!” Such a dynamic and different feel and style of preaching for me. This also isn’t as clear audio as I stood away from the pulpit to speak. Don’t miss this series!!
Alignment Part 3 - NL
This sermon series has not only been challenging, but it has changed the way I preach. This one talks about being aligned with the community.
Alignment Part 3 - P
Such a strong sermon talking about aligning with the community. The way I preach this series shows a side I haven’t presented, but it is a good one. This sermon marks the day we started to embrace change.

This sermon talks about being equipped as a part of our alignment. One person said it’s been the best in the series so far.
Alignment Part 4 - P

Alignment Part 7 - P
This sermon has it all! Encouragement, humor, laughter, conviction, and hope are all encompassed. I think it is better than the other version by far, although the other one has some key statements not repeated here. Support the podc...
Keep the Fire - NL
The last message I share in the alignment series here at NL (New Liberty) is the best of the two, although P included different stories. This message is one you don’t want to miss. It’s about discipling and sending. We are a link in the chain!<...
