Stonebridge Bible Church Sermons

In this sermon, we turn to Jesus’ words in John 14 - words spoken to disciples who were overwhelmed, fearful, and unsure about the future. Into that moment, Jesus reveals who He truly is, the authority He carries, and the assurance He offers to all who follow Him. As He calls them to pray in His name, He lifts their eyes from their troubles and fixes their hope on Himself. This message invites us to do the same. When life feels uncertain, when faith feels weak, or when we wonder whether God hears us, Jesus reminds us that everything we need—access, confidence, strength, and hope—is found in Him. His identity steadies us, His power emboldens us, and His promise assures us that our prayers are heard by the Father through His name. Key Points: 1. Jesus’ Identity 2. Jesus’ Power 3. Jesus’ Promise

In this message from 1 Corinthians 9:19–27, Pastor unpacks what it means to run to win in the Christian life — not for personal gain, but so that others may come to know the Way. We’re challenged to live with a Gospel lifestyle priority, exchanging personal privilege for the greater mission of serving and reaching people for Christ. Through connection without compromise, we’re called to embody both morality and charity, living so that by all means some may be saved. With a Gospel-winning mentality, we’re reminded to run with resolved determination, rigorous discipline, and real direction — aiming at real, providentially placed people with a heart to pray, care, and share. Ultimately, we must ruthlessly discipline ourselves so that our lives reflect what truly matters to God and to others. Will you run to win so they will know the Way?

In John 14:6, Jesus declares, “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life.” This message explores the exclusive claim of Christ against the backdrop of world religions and modern pluralism. Every faith system—Islam, Mormonism, Catholicism, Hinduism, Buddhism, and Judaism—offers a different path to salvation, yet Scripture makes clear there is only one way to the Father.Through this passage, we see: Jesus as the Way — the bridge between sinful humanity and a holy God. Jesus as the Truth — the full revelation of who God is and what is real. Jesus as the Life — the only source of spiritual life and eternal assurance.This sermon exposes the insufficiency of man’s religion and the finality of Christ’s work on the cross. There are not many ways to God—there is one, and His name is Jesus.

In this message, we’re reminded to fix our minds on the hope of heaven — the home Christ has prepared for His people. So often we study destinations on earth while giving little thought to the eternal one waiting for us. But Scripture calls us to set our hearts on things above, to live now in light of the world to come.In this sermon, we explore what awaits us in eternity: 1. We Will Worship 2. We Will Reign 3. We Will Serve Him and Work 4. We Will Rest and ExploreHeaven isn’t a vague dream — it’s a real, renewed creation where believers will live in resurrected bodies, dwell in the presence of Jesus, and experience everlasting joy, purpose, and peace.

Mission Sunday is a moment to remember what God has done and to look ahead in faith to what He will continue to do. At Stonebridge Bible Church, we begin with gratitude—just as Samuel, Nehemiah, and Paul did—acknowledging that the Lord has been faithful every step of the way and will remain faithful as we move forward. God has provided us with a building, and now we trust Him to provide through the generous hearts of His people as we take the next steps toward building out the space for ministry.This message centers on our mission and constant prayer: to preach the Bible, equip the saints, serve the body, and reach the lost so that our people, our city, and the world might know and worship Jesus Christ. It reminds us that everything we do as a church is not out of self-determination but out of dependence on the power of the Holy Spirit. From the preaching of God’s Word, to the equipping and discipling of believers, to acts of service and compassion, to reaching those who do not yet know Christ, every part of our mission flows from the heart of God Himself.As we move into this new chapter together, we do so with confidence that the same God who has helped us “thus far” will continue to lead, provide, and build His church for generations to come.

What comes to your mind when you think about heaven? For many, it feels distant, vague and unimaginable. Yet Scripture tells us that God has revealed to us what He has prepared for those who love Him. In this message, we explore the hope, beauty, and reality of heaven not as a fantasy, but as the true home prepared by our Savior for His people.Through passages like John 14, 1 Corinthians 2, and Revelation 21, we’re reminded that heaven is not an abstract idea, but a real place. A Father’s house filled with the glory of God, radiant beauty, and everlasting peace. It’s the promise that steadies us through every storm and the reality that shapes how we live today.Key Points: 1. What Is Heaven? 2. What Is Heaven Like? 3. What’s Awaiting Me in Heaven? 4. Who Is in Heaven? 5. How Do I Get to Heaven?If you’re in Christ, your future is secure. And if you don’t yet know Him—He’s inviting you today. Don’t leave without knowing where you’ll spend eternity.

In this sermon from John 13:31–38, Jesus gives His disciples a command that would define the Christian life for generations to come — “Love one another; as I have loved you.”As Judas departs into the night, Jesus turns to His remaining disciples and speaks of His coming glorification — a glory revealed not through power or prestige, but through the humility and sacrifice of the cross. In that moment, the love of God is displayed in its fullest measure — holy, just, patient, sovereign, and good.This passage reminds us that love is not merely a feeling or ideal, but the living evidence of a heart transformed by the gospel. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, believers are called and enabled to love with the same kind of love Christ has shown — one that serves humbly, forgives freely, sacrifices deeply, and endures patiently.Sermon Points: 1. The Command to Love 2. The Expression of Love 3. The Power of Love 4. The Fruit of LoveWhen we love one another as Christ has loved us, the world sees the beauty of the gospel and the reality of a Savior who changes hearts.

Psalm 150 is a powerful call to worship, reminding us that every breath we have is a gift from God and should be used to praise Him. This psalm closes the book of Psalms with a crescendo of worship, inviting all creation to lift high the name of the Lord. Whether with instruments, song, or simply the breath in our lungs, we are commanded and invited to give Him glory. In this message, we’ll see how Psalm 150 points us to a life centered on worship—praising the Lord not just in a moment, but with everything we are.Key Scripture: Psalm 150

Explore the tragic tale of Judas' betrayal in the context of misguided love for money and a hardened conscience. Witness the stark contrast between worldly remorse and true repentance, as Judas repeatedly rejects Jesus' love. This message serves as a sobering reminder to examine our hearts and find hope in God's redemptive plan, even in the face of profound betrayal. With a final call for listeners to seek cleansing and forgiveness, it highlights the importance of turning back to Jesus amidst our struggles.

In John 13:2–17, we witness one of the most startling and beautiful moments in Scripture—Jesus, the King of Kings, stooping to wash the feet of His disciples. On the eve of His crucifixion, with betrayal at hand and His glory before Him, He sets the ultimate example of humility, service, and love.This message walks through: 1. The Setting 2. The Scene 3. The Symbol 4. The ApplicationWe see the backdrop of pride, betrayal, and selfish ambition contrasted with the majesty of Christ’s love. We behold the act itself—the Master of the universe doing what only a servant would do. We uncover the deeper meaning, that this washing points to the greater cleansing at the cross. And finally, we hear the call to follow His example, laying down our pride to joyfully serve others.In this powerful text, we are reminded that Jesus not only washes us clean from sin, but also calls us to live as people marked by humility, love, and selfless service.
