Open Door Fellowship

Much of our life is about us. Ken Freeman says, "If your life is about you, than you are in trouble!" This is a message to encourage you to get the life God designed for you not what you want for you.

This is a message from Pastor Steven regarding the pain and loss in grief. While on a mission project in Peru a team member passed away and Pastor Steven was left to pick up the pieces, and make split second difficult decisions for his team. Steven shares openly about pain and finding purpose. Steven says that, "Loss maybe the one single most important catalyst in helping you and me look more like Jesus Christ. If we let him."

All of us feeling dry from time to time. Maybe we are distant from the Lord? What you desperately need is a fresh downpour of mercy and grace from God. How can you get that? Receive truth that will change your life throughout.

As we prepare for revival we need to be reminded that it is not the size of the crowd that matters but it is the right crowd that matters. In this passionate message Pastor Steven shares a plea to develop a heart of compassion for those around us.

Today Pastor Steven addresses one of the real keys in revival: Real Repentance. We will learn that real repentance is life change granted by God impacting every area of our life. Repentance is feeling grief about our attitude, behaviors and actions toward a Holy God and doing something about it.

Some times the best thing we can do in our Christian life is obey the truth we know. All of us would rather attend a Bible study than walk the streets, but obedience to what we know is a vital part of who we are as children of the High King. Today, Pastor Steven gives us a call to obey what we know.

Sometimes the will of God is hard to understand. What if you clearly know what God said? Pastor Steven teaches us today that it is there, that real obedience is required, but also difficult. We must understand god's will for our lives and then obey it. Yes, even if the brook dries up.

The Devil has a design and a plan. That temptation might surprise you. This text seems to teach us that he strikes at our strong points. today pastor Steven teaches us that our strong points are really our weak points. They are unguarded because we think they are secure, but those area may just need the most attention.

All of us live life for something: Money, fame, popularity. But, what is it that really matters? Today, Pastor Steven teaches that anyone can fall into practical atheism. We must make our plans but not so much that God is left out of the equation.

We have all heard it before, " God has a wonderful plan for our lives." {AND HE DOES!} However, today Pastor Steven gives us a great warning to heed: The Devil Desires to Have you for himself! We must live our lives as prepared followers of Christ to do battle against the enemy!

God's love is never ending. In this passage Pastor Steven looks at Peter's greatest failure, but in this moment there is a great assurance. Grace is already made possible to Simon even before the denial.

When was the last time you were hungry? How long were you hungry? 20 minutes… an hour maybe? The point Pastor Steven makes is this: What do we really know about hunger? Food is on the table for a topic but anything that I have to have is enslavement for me. This is a message about breaking those things that enslave us.

Something has a hold on you. You want to do the right thing, you want to break free, but somehow you end up in a cycle of sin-repent-sin-repent. It's time to break free by implementing an under-utilized but highly effective spiritual discipline: Fasting.

This is a call for the follower of Jesus to understand the importance of studying the word of God not only on a corporate level but also a personal level.

Prayer works because the sovereign power of God. Not because of the words you say, the faith you express or the promises you claim. One does not learn to pray best by studying prayer one learns to pray best by studying the God who answers prayer. This is a study affirming that our God is worthy to be praised even before we receive an answer!

There is one thing the disciples had to ask Jesus to teach them. By His example, they knew how important prayer was and recognized that the greatest need in their life was to pray like Jesus! Even if you think you have it all figured out, this message will check both your method and your motive.

UNITED is a Night of Worship hosted at Open Door Fellowship. It is a Parish-wide invitation to UNITE under the cross of Christ to worship His name and proclaim his death, burial and resurrection. UNITED will be led by Caleb Willis, Minister of Music; Fairview Baptist Church and Juliana Handy of Open Door Fellowship. Caleb and Juliana have organized a volunteer worship team consisting of instrumentalists/vocalists from area churches. We're believing that this night of worship is going to be an incredible encounter with the presence of God as we UNITE and seek His face together.

It`s the one thing the disciples had to ask Jesus to teach them: PRAYER! By His example, they knew how important prayer was and recognized that they had better get it figured out. Even if you think you have prayer all figured out, this message from Pastor Steven will check both your heart and life.
