Divine Savior Church-santa Rita Ranch Sermons

Have you ever felt overwhelmed, hurt, confused, and wonder what to do next? I'm sure Joseph felt the same way. God gave him exactly what he needed. 

Have you ever had someone tell you that there's nothing to be afraid of? There's actually plenty to be afraid of. Mary had some reasons to be afraid too, but the angel told her, "Don't be afraid." We can live without fear as well. 

Hopes and fears. We all have them. When we hope in our circumstances changing, we will be disappointed more often than not. So where does hope come from? Find out in Luke 1.Support the show (https://pushpay.com/pay/divinesaviorchurchsantaritaranch/)

Who is Jesus? The world has many different opinions, but when problems come into your life it matters who Jesus is. 

Being generous can be scary. Fear of the "what if" can paralyze giving. Yet, we don't have to fear. We have a God who not only provides what we need for this life, but he also provides everything we need to be generous. 

When we think of becoming more and more like Jesus, we probably think of becoming more kind and compassionate. While true, there's more to it then just that. Praise God that Jesus is more than just our example; he is our Savior!

God has called us to be his children. In view of that mercy, what does that lead us to do in our life? Live for him, and use our gifts. 

In a culture that is on edge about all kinds of physical bacteria, do we ever consider there is spiritual bacteria in the air? How do we guard our hearts so they don't get contaminated by the spiritual bacteria in the air? It all is found in God's truth. 

When it comes to family, there's commitment and sacrifice. The same is true within the family of believers as we are united under the Father who is the most committed and has sacrificed everything for us. 

United we stand, divided we fall. Though we are all different people, we have been united. That's important as we carry out the mission of Jesus. 

How does God's kingdom grow? It's not by force. Instead, it is by scattering the powerful seed of the gospel.

Have you ever been down to your last hope? Ruth and Naomi were. See how their hope came through and how because of them you have hope today.

Everyone loves a great love story. In chapter three we see the love story of Ruth and Boaz take place. But what does it have to do with the greatest love story ever told; the love story that you're in?

Waiting on God's plan is very difficult. It makes us question him. It makes us wonder if he's really there. It makes us wonder if he really does have a plan. I imagine that is where Ruth and Naomi were. See what encouragement God's Word gives us as we walk through dark valleys of life.

Imagine the next ten years of your life. What do you see? Good things, right? But what if the next ten years brings more heartache than joy? As we start this new series on Ruth, we see that God remains faithful. He's behind the scenes working in our lives through the relationships that we have.
