Harris Creek Baptist Church

Meaningful relationships start with going all-in with Jesus, allowing His love to fill us so we can love others with humility and selflessness. We’re called to put others before ourselves and live all-in for the Gospel, using every relationship as an opportunity to share the hope of Jesus until all are in Christ.Go All-In with ChristLive All-In for OthersBe All-In for The Gospel Life Group Discussion:How can you tell when you’re running on your own strength instead of being filled by Christ’s love?Philippians 2:3–4 calls us to put others’ interests ahead of our own. Where is this easiest for you, and where is it hardest?What would change about the way you approach your relationships if you truly believed God had placed those people in your life for a purpose?

God has placed you exactly where you are to represent Jesus, not by criticizing the world, but by showing people His love through your actions, kindness, and gentleness. Remember the grace that saved you, stay focused on what matters, and look for ways to meet real needs because the world isn’t your enemy, it’s your mission field.Live by exampleRemember you were savedStay focused on mission Life Group Discussion:You can disagree with someone without dishonoring them. Where do you find it hardest to show gentleness and respect toward people whose beliefs, values, or opinions differ from yours? What would it look like to respond more like Jesus?Have you ever felt like your past disqualified you from being used by God? How might He use parts of your story, even the messy parts, to connect with someone who needs Him?JP says, “Don’t get so distracted by what’s wrong with the world that you fail to do what’s right.” What distractions, arguments, or frustrations tend to pull your attention away from actually loving and serving people?

Grace is so much more than forgiveness; through Jesus, God saves us, shapes us, and sets us apart as His own. We don’t pursue holiness to earn God’s grace, but because we’ve received it, allowing His grace to transform our desires, change how we live, and make us people who reflect His kindness to the world.Grace saves us Grace shapes us Grace sets us apart Life Group Discussion:Where are you tempted to believe you have to earn God’s love or prove yourself to Him?Where might God be inviting you to let His grace shape an area of your life right now?What is one practical way you can show the kindness of Jesus to someone in your everyday life this week?

Your life is a billboard for Jesus. Explore Titus 2’s vision for gospel-shaped living across every season: older believers investing in the next generation, younger believers cultivating faithful homes and self-control, marriages strengthened by respect, and workers reflecting Christ through integrity and excellence. Discover how everyday choices can point people toward Jesus.

A powerful call to resist cultural compromise and protect the church from false teaching. The sermon explores how to recognize corrupt counsel, evaluate ideas through Scripture, and correct spiritual error with both courage and compassion. It also turns toward evangelism, urging believers to share Christ with those trapped in sin rather than settling for moral lectures.

What makes someone worth following? Drawing from Titus 1, this message explores leadership that begins at home, prioritizes character over charisma, and remains anchored in Gospel truth. It also examines spiritual influence in everyday life, the dangers of moral drift, and the safeguards, surrender, and accountability needed to finish faithfully.

Finishing faithfully takes more than a strong start. This message explores spiritual practices, intentional intimacy with Jesus, and persevering through seasons of drift and distraction. It also examines how everyday influence can become a legacy of disciple-making, with encouragement from Paul’s guidance to Timothy, athletic metaphors, and the empowering work of the Holy Spirit.

Healthy relationships don’t happen by following our natural instincts, but by staying close to the Holy Spirit and letting Him lead us toward life and peace. Because we’ve been forgiven, we’re called to forgive others, and because we’ve been redeemed, we’re called to own our wrongs, seek forgiveness, and make things right.Follow the Spirit for healed relationship Forgiven people forgive peopleThe Redeemed right their wrongsLife Group Discussion:What does stay “close enough to touch” the Holy Spirit look like in your daily life?Is there someone you’re holding onto unforgiveness toward?

Freedom from sin comes when we take inventory, confess, and repent, bringing what’s hidden into the light. When we turn toward Jesus, we find forgiveness, healing, and joy.Take inventory of sinConfess your sinRepent of your sinLife Group Discussion:What is something you tend to avoid acknowledging or looking at honestly in your own life? Why?How does knowing that God responds to confession with forgiveness change the way you view your sin?What’s the difference between simply feeling sorry for your sin and actually turning from it?

JP reminds us that freedom begins when we stop trying to fight sin and our struggles in our own strength and surrender to God. Through Romans 7, we’re reminded of three simple truths: I can’t, God can, and I trust Him, because the God who forgives, heals, redeems, and renews us is also trustworthy with every part of our lives.I can’t God canI trust HimLife Group Discussion:Where are you most tempted to rely on your own strength instead of admitting, “I can’t”?Psalm 103 says God forgives, heals, redeems, crowns, satisfies, and renews.
