Abundant Life Church Brookings

We have discussed the WHO and the WHAT of communion - join us in discussing the WHEN and the WHERE of communion as well!

Guest Speaker Jayson Webster challenges us to ask God to reveal to us the areas in our lives where we are settling or getting complacent.

Bob illustrates the theme of sheep as a metaphor and what it means for Jesus to be our good shepherd.

Sermons about a topic (money, thankfulness, etc.) will impact us temporarily. Only a revelation of Jesus can transform our hearts and lives permanently. Trusting God in other areas of life starts with trusting Him with money.

What does the Bible say about tithing? What role does tithing play for the New Covenant believer? What happens if you tithe? What happens if you don't tithe? What is tithing? These questions and more are answered in today's message.

Very few people would question what God's Word says about how to get saved. Why don't we trust His words in the area of money? Come with us as we explore the story in 1 Kings 17:10-16 and how a step of faith in the area of money unlocked the supply needed.

If you stress and worry about money, you're not alone. However, being stressed about money comes down to a trust issue - not trusting that God will take care of you. What does trusting God with your finances look like? Here's a glimpse.

What is one thing that affects the whole world? Kids, teens, young adults, singles, couples, widows, single parents, believers, and non-believers? Money. There is a way that works and it's found in God's Word. Join us as Pastor Joe introduces a series that will benefit everyone!

Ephesians 6 tells us that our last piece of spiritual armor is praying in the Spirit at all times and on every occasion. What is praying in tongues/praying in the spirit? Why would a Christian do it? What benefits does it have?

Did you know that the Bible outlines three different types of baptisms? 1. Baptism by the Holy Spirit into God's family2. Baptism by a leader into water3. Baptism by Jesus into the Holy SpiritWhat role do each of these baptisms play? What are the benefits of spiritual baptism? You might need to put your experience, tradition, and preference aside in order to truly hear this message.

On Sanctity of Human Life Sunday 2024, Pastor Joe delivered a message about a topic that is (or should not be) political - Abortion. Touching on topics such as sin, forgiveness, personhood, God's creative work, purpose, science, and more. Finally, we answered the question: What is the Christian's role in this issue? This is a must-listen.

This sermon follows up "Call me AL", where Pastor Joe discusses the purpose, mission, and vision of Abundant Life Church. In this sermon, we explore the foundation on which this church is built - The Word of God.

Are you familiar with Charles Dickens' 1843 book, Christmas Carol? It's an amazing story of salvation, transformation, redemption, and restoration? Even more, what can we learn from our past, present, and future?

As humans, we have always been searching for meaning and purpose. God left heaven and became like us so we could understand Him. Our search for rest, love, forgiveness, hope, joy, peace, family, mercy, grace, purpose, and meaning is over. Christmas whispers that the answer to all we need is in Jesus. Merry Christmas!

Christmas is about the return of a King who came to set His people free. Why did Jesus have to come? How did the shepherds know where to find Him? Scripture reveals some incredible truths!

If we're looking for truth, where do we find it? What is the true story of Jesus coming? What did He come to do?

What does the Bible tell us about fear? What does fear to do us? What can we do to overcome it? Jesus came to end all fear. It is his perfect love that drives out fear from our lives!

Feeling stuck in life? You don't have to. Our battles in life are not against our circumstances, but rather against what we think and what we say. This message explains how giving thanks affects the Devil, God, and ourselves.

What role does Thanksgiving have in living by faith?When giving thanks is the engine and not the caboose of your life, you will find yourself getting unstuck from life's messes. True thanksgiving is not based on what you have, but on who God is. If you're not good at giving thanks, you can practice. Learn about these and more!
