New City Fellowship Sermons

the First Blended Church | Blended #1

Pastor John kicks off the BLENDED series from Acts 11 & 13. What if a church saw thousands of people come to Jesus, the sick healed, people sacrificially loving each other, praying powerful prayers, and boldly sharing Jesus...was made up mostly of one type of people? The church at Antioch shows us that Jesus wants more for us.

Frozen or Free?

Pastor John preaches from Genesis 45-50 bringing the Joseph story to resolution. Does the pain of the past freeze you in the present? Or are you free for the future?

 

Sojourn to the New City

Finding God in Deep Brokenness

Rev. Ronnie Perry, Jr. church planter from WPB, challenges us from Genesis 42 with "The Test of Finding God in Deep Brokenness" in our 4th sermon from The Joseph Story. Joseph's story is broken, but his family history is even more messed up.

Pain, Providence and Promise in Egypt

Chad Virtanen preaches from the often misunderstood story in Genesis 41 of Joseph's rise to power. Joseph's promotion to power in Egypt is an often misunderstood story. Is the lesson for us that God blesses our trials with earthly rewards?

Where is God?

On the Stage, Behind the Scenes

Problems & Promises

Pastor John looks at Romans 8:12-27 and explains that God's promises don't promote us out of our problems, but help us persevere through them.
