New Life Fellowship NYC Sermons

We put a pause on our regular series in order to make room for New Life CDC Sunday. This Sunday we highlight the work of our CDC (community development corporation) among the poor and marginalized. Jeremiah 29:1-14 God gives the people of God the mandate to seek the shalom (peace and prosperity) of the city. He says if the city does well, His people will do well. Sadly, this mandate is easily drowned out by the shalom of the self. In Jeremiah 29, God shows how he moves his people toward the pursuit of shalom for all.

Pastor Rich continues our short series on the origins of our brokenness. He preaches from the famous story of Cain and Abel, highlighting the ways jealousy has damaged our world.

In this new sermon series, Pastor Rich explores the origin story of sin and how this story continues to be lived out in our lives and our world. Rich also explores the ways God offers freedom and healing to us as we become people who freely receive.

In this sermon, Pastor Rich will unpack the 5 values of New Life that form us to be a "peculiar" people in the world. If you are new to our congregation, this serves as a great introduction to who we are as a church. If you have been a part of our church for some time, you will be invited to deepen your commitment to seeing these values work in and through your life. 

Pastor Rich shares his reflections from his sabbatical, offering a vision of transformation that applies to all aspects of our lives.

In this sermon, Pastor Rich shares reflections from his sabbatical on the importance of prayer. He offers a vision of how prayer forms us, as well as practical next steps to strengthen your life with God.

In this dialogue, Pete sits down with Rich to discuss the four words he received while on his Sabbatical. Rich shares important insight and revelation that he hopes will have an impact on our church community.

Patience is a gift we truly need in our world. How can we learn to stay present, stay connected and weather the storms of life? This is the final message in our Walk This Way: Fruit of the Spirit series.

Jesus intends for all of us to be free.  Yet, you might be battling with unwanted habitual behavior that has robbed you of the full experience of freedom.  What is the role of self-control?  How can we be fully free?  This week, we continue with our Walk this Way: The Fruit of the Spirit series, as we explore the fruit of self-control.

The fruit of the Spirit is another way of talking about the divine life. Cultivating the spiritual fruit of the Kingdom is the path in which we best bear the image of God in the world. Within the current culture of rage, vitriol and aggression, love through kindness is a preposterous yet undeniable call of following Jesus. This sermon from Pastor AJ Sherrill is a biblical and practical teaching as to how best to cultivate a love that sends us into the world with the aroma of Christ.
