Dr. Mike Harder Exodus 20:8-11 As a society, rest isn’t cultural for us. Many ignore the directive to make the Sabbath a day of rest. In Genesis, God modeled Sabbath rest for us. After creating the world, his labor ceased, and he rested. When we think of rest, a vacation comes to mind, relaxing at the beach or looking across a mountain vista. However, what if we viewed the Sabbath not as a day, but rather, a person. Jesus said, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28 NIV). Have you considered giving your burdens to Jesus and resting in him? No more running or trying to do life in your own strength. Find rest by giving your past, your story, to Jesus. Today, choose to rest in Jesus Christ.

Often when we become accustomed to beautiful scenery, relationships, or comfortable environments, we take those things for granted. They become so familiar. Perhaps that happens, also, in our relationship with God. In the routine of everyday living, we may lose our sense of who God is. Pastor Mike Harder continues the sermon series, the “Ten Commandments According to Jesus,” with today’s message on the third commandment: You shall not take the name of the Lord in vain. Jehovah God wants us to honor His name in all that we do. Never should we use His mighty name for personal profit. We must not live lives unworthy of His name, because Christians are people of the Way. His great name is never to be evoked as a slur or a curse. Instead, we should be eager to live as people in awe of the Father while simultaneously being close to Him. Is the desire of your heart Jesus? If not, it can be. You can always come home to Him. “…Your name and renown are the desire of our hearts.” Isaiah 26:8

Dr. Harder continues his series, The X Commandments According To Jesus, by focusing on Exodus 20:4-6, Acts 4:12.

Dr. Harder continues his sermon series titled, "The X Commandments According To Jesus," while focusing this week on "Defining The Relationship." He displays the importance of ultimately forming a relationship with God, sharing personal experiences and reflections on relationships by including the anxieties and conversations that arise when defining a relationship. Dr. Harder further explains that the 10 Commandments are not merely a set of rules, but a means for establishing a deeper connection with God, encouraging us to define the relationship we have with God himself.

Dr. Mike Harder begins his new series “The Ten Commandments According to Jesus” from Exodus chapters 19 and 20. What if the Ten Commandments are not just rules to live by but something deeper—perhaps a love letter from God to a people who desperately need Him? In the earlier chapters of Exodus, the Israelites had seen God’s mighty power many times, but they really didn’t know Him. In chapter 19, they prepare to actually meet Him as God comes to Mt. Sinai. However, God makes it clear that because of their sin, they cannot actually approach Him. The Israelites needed an advocate to be their bridge to Holy God. They needed a way to know God personally. Moses was their advocate. Today, because of our sin we still cannot approach Holy God without an advocate. We need a way to personally know God. Jesus is our advocate… our bridge to Holy God. Will you make Jesus Christ personal? If you don’t have a personal relationship with Him, you can today by surrendering your life to Him. If you already have a personal relat

In his sermon titled, "The Mountains of 2024," Rev. Jordan Davis focuses on facing obstacles and challenges in life with faith in God. He goes on to discuss how mountains can represent the difficulties we encounter, and how having faith enables us to conquer those mountains.

In his final message in the Christmas sermon series titled, “Do You See What I See,” Dr. Harder looks at the perspective of the the Shepherds. Hear how he highlights the significance of the Shepherds being the first visitors to Jesus, and what that reveals about how God uses all people. You'll be moved by his appeal to truly encounter Jesus personally and worship him, not just know about him, this Christmas.

Continuing his Christmas sermon series titled, “Do You See What I See,” Dr. Harder focuses on the perspective of the the Angels who appeared to the shepherds to announce Jesus' birth. God sent Jesus at Christmas to bring us peace with Him, transforming us from enemies into children in His family for eternity. We must first pursue peace with God before we can truly have peace with others or ourselves. This Christmas, fully embrace Christ as the Prince of Peace so you can know the joy of belonging to God's family, both now and forever.

Continuing his Christmas sermon series titled, “Do You See What I See,” Dr. Harder focuses on the perspective of Joseph. When an angel appears to Joseph, he obeys God by taking Mary as his wife and naming her child Jesus, adopting him into the lineage of David and participating in the fulfillment of prophecy. Joseph's life parallels Christ's as the suffering servant, modeling self-sacrifice for God's work. The sermon challenges us this Advent to follow Joseph's example by going to join Jesus wherever he leads, even into discomfort and unknown places.

In his new Christmas sermon series titled, “Do You See What I See,” Dr. Harder focuses on the story of the angel Gabriel visiting Mary. He goes on to discuss Mary's fear at the news she will bear the Son of God with the great favor and purpose God gave her. Likewise, we should choose trusting God's favor rather than fearing the unknown when God moves in our lives. Pastor Mike urges replacing any negative identities we've internalized about ourselves with the truth that God has shown us favor by offering a relationship through Christ.
