Sermons from Bay Vista Baptist ChurchA Call to Worship the Lord
Connecting people to God is the first tenet of our church’s motto. Worship is one aspect of that, and today we look at worship through the lens of a popular Psalm.
(Bro. Danny shared an update about his health before bringing the message; this recording includes that.)
A New Life for a New Year
We should live this year being filled with the Holy Spirit, trusting His power to help us get through. In this message, we look at the Holy Spirit’s work in the life of a believer.
What's for Supper?
What’s for supper? This is a question we’ve all asked at one point in our lives. Today, we take an in-depth look at the Lord’s Supper, where Jesus added meaning to the Passover meal, and what it should mean to us.
(NOTE: The service had various musical interludes while we partook of the Lord’s Supper; this sermon does not have any of that music.)
A Tale of Two Treasures
Jesus told two short parables about the value of the kingdom of God. Today we look at these two, and what these actually mean in our lives.
The Son Has Come
Christmas is over. Now what? We turn our attention to exactly what the gift of Jesus brings us, from a passage not typically associated with Christmas.
Joseph
Today, we hear Joseph’s story in a dramatic monologue. His faithfulness to God gives us a great example of how we can trust God. (4th Sunday of Advent)
Prophet Song
We tend to downplay Mary, but today we see Mary for who she was - a prophet who had a mission from God. This mission is summed up in the song she sings after learning the news. (3rd Sunday of Advent)
John the Baptist
John the Baptist was sent to prepare the way for the coming Savior. (2nd Sunday of Advent)
Isaiah the Prophet
The prophet Isaiah had some hard words for Israel and her surrounding nations, but within those words, there was hope of a coming Savior. (1st Sunday of Advent)
Thankful to Christ
We pray to God the Father, and we give thanks, it’s usually directed toward Him. This is not a bad thing. However, in today’s Scripture, we see Paul thanking Jesus for His sacrifice, and for reaching out and turning Paul’s life around.
