Pikes Peak Christian Church Sermon Podcast

11-19-17 - Senior Pastor Darrin Ronde reminds us that as much as we like to be able to accomplish things by ourselves, there are many things that are beyond our reach. This is is especially true when it comes to things of God and the power and knowledge that he possesses.

11-12-17 - Senior Pastor Darrin Ronde looks at the next few verses at the beginning of Ephesians 2, and this time we look at a small word with a big meaning - But. In our lives, we often here the word 'but' as something that goes at the end of a compliment, making what was just said prior negated. This is what happens in this message, but instead it is a positive 'But'!

11-5-17 - Senior Pastor Darrin Ronde reaches the beginning of Ephesians chapter two this week, and we go through the first three verses. So often we think the Christian walk is about Jesus taking bad and making good of it, and while that is a product of Christianity, what Jesus is truly about is bringing the dead back to life. In our lives, this means spiritually, and Darrin looks at the meaning of his resurrection in our lives and what we need to remember from our dead selves.

10-29-17 - Senior Pastor Darrin Ronde finishes up chapter one of Ephesians by letting us know that there is power in the name of Jesus. There is power in having a relationship with Jesus. There is power beyond beyond the grave and into heaven. What could you do with such a power? What are we called to do with such a power?

10-22-17 - Senior Pastor Darrin Ronde wants to know what you know. More importantly, God wants to make sure that you know who He is. One cannot have a healthy relationship with someone if they didn't get to know them beyond an introduction, so how far past an introduction to God have you gotten?

10-15-17 - Senior Pastor Darrin Ronde talks growth. There are many different veins of thought when it comes to what the word 'Growth' means in the Christian arena. So does the Bible say anything about it?

10-8-17 - Family Pastor Sam Silveous takes us through what we have looked at in a broader scope and looks at the commonality in the words Paul choose in chapter 1 of Ephesians.

10-1-17 - Senior Pastor Darrin Ronde reaches the half way point of Ephesians chapter one this week, speaking on the key role that the Holy Spirit plays in the Christian faith. So often He is a person that can be forgotten, but when it comes to a full Christian walk, he is far from someone to forget.

9-24-17 - Senior Pastor Darrin Ronde takes us deeper in the book of Ephesians today. He unfolds more of Chapter 1, talking about the mystery of God and redemption through his Son.

9-17-17 - Senior Pastor Darrin Ronde hits verses 3-6 of Ephesians 1 as we continue through our study through the entire book of Ephesians. It is quite the deep book, so only a few verses at a time are needed. Today we hear more about grace and mercy, as well as the blessings that come from being chosen by God.

9-10-17 - Senior Pastor Darrin Ronde has preached a 3 week intro to the book of Ephesians looking at the portion of Acts that has Paul in Ephesus. This is the now the first week actually going through the book of Ephesians, and we cover a lot of ground...the first two verses. Even though this is just the intro to the book, there is a lot of Paul has for us in these couple sentences, and Darrin unpacks those for us.

9-3-17 - Senior Pastor Darrin Ronde does the third of our three part intro to the book of Ephesians as we finish up looking in the book of Acts and what type of people and environment it was that Paul wrote the letter to Ephesus that we now know as the book of Ephesians. We finish up this intro looking at idols and what it is that can get in the way of God and what that does.

8-27-17 - Senior Pastor Darrin Ronde goes a little darker this weekend as he talks about the presence of demons and what their existence looks like and means for us. Demons are real, and there is a spiritual battle going on we are fighting for. Which side you are on is up to you.

8-20-17 - Senior Pastor Darrin Ronde beings our new sermon in our series through Ephesians. He begins by going through Acts 19. In Acts 19, we get a glimpse at the relationship that Paul had with some people in Ephesus and part of why he later on will write the letter that we know as Ephesians. This message is packed full of content with the Holy Spirit and baptism, so it is an awesome starting point for someone in the faith and a great reminder for one that has been calling Jesus 'Lord' for awhile.

8-13-17 - Family Pastor Sam Silveous finishes up our series on how the church is better when we function today. This is a sermon about battling and how relationships we have we need to be willing to fight for. We need to be willing to fight alongside. We need to be willing to fight in prayer. We need to be willing to fight for what is right. We need to be willing to Fight For It!

8-6-17 - Family Pastor Sam Silveous hits on a well known passage. Many have heard about the idea of the Body of Christ, aka The Church, and how we all have a part to play. Often times we hear a message like this and it can be easy to feel that if we don't have any particular gifts to offer on Sunday morning then we are off the hook. But that is far from the case. Sam looks at what we are called to through Jesus and what he desires in our lives.

7-31-17 - Sam Silveous goes over the power in numbers. We all know there can be strength in numbers, and this goes with us in the church too. We need to be there for each other. Together we can be much more than we can solo. Even though our relationship with God is a personal thing, it was never meant to be a private thing.

7-23-17 - Senior Pastor Darrin Ronde begins our new series on people in relationship talking about the overall idea of community. We need people in our lives. Whether introvert or extrovert, it is a need.

7-16-17 - Senior Pastor Darrin Ronde closes out the series with a test. This isn't a pop quiz though, but a comparison of temptation vs testing. There are different hardships and moments in our lives that will feel like we are being stretched and pushed spiritually, and it's these times that Darrin speaks on.

7-9-17 - Senior Pastor Darrin Ronde does a gut check looking into forgiveness. It's not just about what Jesus did to forgive us, but what we do in the area of forgiving others. The Golden Rule is in place here in a way that many of us find hard to handle. But Darrin goes through and shows us in scripture what the idea of forgiveness means and entails.
