Sermons by Brent Smith
Brent Smith: What Have You Come To See? | Matthew 11:1-19
There are times we can begin doubting who Jesus is because we’re basing our conclusions on our own experiences when things aren’t going our way. We have an unhealthy expectation of what we think Jesus should be doing for us. But as you put your faith in Him, you will experience His goodness and life-giving grace.
Brent Smith: The Call of Gideon | Judges 6
When God calls us to do His will, He will also equip and empower us with the means to do so. Through the life of Gideon, we see that we may be unqualified for the job, but as we walk in obedience and trust, He is the One who does the work through us.
Brent Smith: The Sanctity of Life | Love Life
As we address these issues and talk about the sanctity of life, it’s important that we look to the source of all life – God! And we must look to what His Word, the Bible says.
Brent Smith: Know Before You Go | Matthew 10:11-23
Jesus calls His disciples to trust God for a number of things because the mission is not always going to be easy. As they preach the Gospel, they will face persecution from those who hate Jesus.
Brent Smith: The Vicious Cycle Begins| Judges 2:11-3:31
After Joshua, the Israelites drifted away from the Lord. They knew about God but had no interest in really serving God and Him alone. This led them down an unfortunate spiral of sin and the suffering it brings.
Brent Smith: Called And Sent | Matthew 9:35-10:10
Jesus saw the people as sheep with no shepherd. The religious leaders should have been shepherding them, but they were like wolves preying upon them. The Good Shepherd was now in their midst, but the people needed to be aware of this and see their need for Him.
Brent Smith: Healing In His Wings | Matthew 9:18-34
Jesus has the power to heal and save. It’s not great faith that’s needed, it’s just simple faith in a great God.
Brent Smith: A Preview and Perspective of Judges | Judges 1:1-2:10
Partial obedience amounts to disobedience. The consequences of a small compromise reached multiple generations. God wants our cooperation and partnership. He wants this to be our desire as well.
Brent Smith: New Wine And Old Wineskins | Matthew 9:14-17
Jesus came to bring something new, not patch up the old. The law had its purpose, there’s still value in it today, but once Jesus came, He became our righteousness. Therefore, the law regarding righteousness is now fulfilled.
Brent Smith: Jesus Came To Save Sinners | Matthew 9:1-13
Apart from Christ, you are crippled in the paralysis of sin. But when you choose to put your trust in Jesus and activate faith, He restores you and makes you whole!
Brent Smith: Choose This Day Whom You Will Serve | Joshua 24
Like Israel, we’ve all heard of God’s faithfulness, but we’ve also heard of the consequences of our unfaithfulness. God has called us to be faithful to Him, and it’s in keeping our loyalty to Him that we truly experience the life and blessings He has for us.
Brent Smith: Discipleship, Difficulties and Demons | Matthew 8:14-34
Jesus simply asks His disciples, ‘Why are you fearful?’ Now we can all think of at least a few reasons why fear might get the better of us. But though the storm is raging, Jesus is at rest. With Jesus in the boat, we don’t need to fear! Though trials will come, He will not let us drown. We need to take confidence in that.
