You Cannot Save Yourself, And You Don't Have To: A Christmas Sermon by South Bay Chapel
Sin is more than just what we do; its a trap and a snare, and clings to us so closely. How can we run with all this baggage?
We, as humans, need the testimonies of those who have gone before us. As followers of Christ, we have a "cloud of witness" that know only inspire, but show us the truth of what its like to live a life after Jesus.
Today we start a new series. Pastor Tony is calling it "Run Your Race". Based on Hebrews 12:1-2, our first challenge is to take an honest look out ourselves and ask, "Am I running?"
Today we will be learning how to be Satisfied In Jesus*. Let's get into the study with Pastor Tony.
*Note: What began as a message about finding ultimate satisfaction in Jesus, changed as the Holy Spirit began to minister to folks at the altar during service. The message became a warning about the dangers of pride in the Christian, and what to do to crucify pride in us.
We all have heard the verse faith, hope, and love, but the greatest of these is love. We don't give much thought to the other two. Tonight we will hear from Pastor Tony as he teaches us about Hope.
Pastor Ben brings us the word today. Let's join him as we learn to "take the mask" off.
As we began to talk about money and what the Bible says about it, we first have to look at what our hearts say about money.

Today Pastor Ben Bailey brings us the word. He will be teaching from the book of Genesis starting in chapter 15.
Due to a technical error, the first 12 minutes were not recorded. We join Pastor Tony in his sermon all ready in progress.
The most important question ever is this-who is Jesus? As Jesus entered Jerusalem 2000 years ago, the crowds asked the same thing. Who do you say that Jesus is?
"Stewardship" has become a pretty Christian word. We use it, but what does it mean, and how is it used in discipleship?
Jesus goes to God the Father, but sends to us (believers in Jesus) the Holy Spirit to be a comforter. Why? Because life can hurt, and we need someone who can come alongside us, so that we can make it.
Paul accused the Corinthian Church of taking the Lord's Supper in an "unworthy" manner. What does that mean? How can we take communion in a way that most glorifies Jesus?
How does the Lord's Supper make us more like Jesus? What is the cost? What is the reward? We tackle these questions and more as we strive to be like Jesus.
God gives. It's His nature. For those who believe Jesus is the Son of God, we receive so much. But what does it mean to "believe"?
For the rest of 2015, South Bay Chapel will be dedicating our mid-week service to becoming a disciple of Jesus, what it costs, and what rewards are given. In this study, you will be introduced to what discipleship is.
The Holy Spirit comes to convict us of our sins, the greatest of which is the rejection of Jesus.
Fasting-when paired with prayer and worship-was utilized by the early Church when seeking the will of God.
Jesus told His disciples, "You will do greater works than these." What does that mean? Will we do works that are greater than what Jesus has done? Find out all this and more.

It seems like Jesus has a lot for us to do. How can we accomplish anything? He equips us. Find out what this means in our latest sermon.
In Mark ch. 9, we find not a "how-to" for fasting, but rather, failure on the part of Jesus' disciples. Here's what we can learn about fasting, coupled with prayer, are used for deliverance.
The Holy Spirit (the 3rd Person of the Holy Trinity) has many specific offices-including that of Teacher to the believer.
The most popular fast in our culture (in and outside the church) is the Daniel Fast. What is this fast, it's purpose, and how does it glorify Jesus? We explore these questions and more.
"I will never leave you nor forsake you" is the promise made in Deuteronomy and echoed by the author of the book of Hebrews. What does this all mean to today's Christians?
Fasting is a lost art, often under utilized by today's Christians. But what is fasting? In this study, we look at an example set forth by King David.
Do we become a Christian because we have been convinced, or does God reveal Jesus to us, inviting to follow Him? If the later is the case, what should that produce in us?
It is the Holy Spirit who calls individuals to lead through servitude. Listen as we explore the Holy Spirit's role in calling leaders for the Church.
The last question of our Ask Your Pastor series was so good, it needs it's own series! Introducing Holy Ghost: The God You Never Knew", a 12-part series introducing us to the third Person of the Trinity. In this episode, we look at the Holy Spirit and how He leads Christians.

Christianity has 2 BIG holidays-Christmas and Easter. So which is more important? Here is question #10 in our series, #AskYourPastor.

Death and Hell are probably not in our top 5 when it comes to things to talk about. But the Bible has much to say about it, and as a result, we have a few questions.
We know that God loves us. But how do we "feel" God's love for us? Is there a tangible way to feel it?
We get that sin is bad, but what is sin? Is being a Christian just being a person who does not sin? And if I do sin once I am saved, what do I do? We tackle these questions and more in Ask Your Pastor Question #3-What is Sin?
"What is salvation?" Such a simple question with profound importance. Listen to pt. 2 of our sermon series, "Ask Your Pastor".
In our opening sermon, we tackle the questions that has shipwrecked the faith of countless Christians: "Why do bad things happen to good people?" We look to the Word of God for our answer.

Jesus is "The Christ", the Anointed One of God, sent by God the Father to save you. The question is, is He your Christ? If Jesus isn't your Christ, then who or what is?
We are one, united under the Lordship of Jesus. In the same way individual grains of sand make up a beach, individual Christians make up the church.
Many read the Bible as a book of rules that, when followed, leads to a life of blessing. Paul tells the Galatians that those who return to the Law are under a curse. So what do we do?

There is a time to unite, be uniform, and even a time to divide. How can we know when to do which?
