Am I Known for What I’m For or Against?

Am I Known for What I am For or Against? It can be so easy to look at others and judge them! We all struggle with self righteousness. As Jesus reminds us, however, judgment starts with discerning our own sins rather than decrying the sins of others. When we jump to judging others, it can be very difficult to be “for” them. My Next Step(s): - I will strive to be known for what I am for rather than what I am against. - Because of Jesus, I will choose mercy. - Because of Jesus, I will choose peace. - Like Jesus, I will love the sinner, even if I hate the sin. - I will act justly, love mercy and walk humbly with God.

Am I Playing Offense or Defense?

By: Pastor Augie Iadicicco
Series: ReOpening Christianity
Am I Playing Offense or Defense? It is so easy to try protect what we have. We can try to protect our finances, our health, and even our church. David stepped up to fight a giant when everyone else was simply trying not to be conquered by the giant. We are reminded how we can be brave in how we live for Christ! My Next Step(s): - I will remain open and welcoming to those who are outside of the Church. - I will contribute to the work of God’s Church - especially as we re-open. - I will discover “perspective” in remembering what God has done for me in the past. - I will “run” to the battle line - to do the work that God has prepared me for! - I will not be afraid to be on the offense for God’s Kingdom, man cannot deter me.

Am I a Contributor or a Consumer?

By: Pastor Augie Iadicicco
Series: ReOpening Christianity
Am I a Contributor or a Consumer? One of the best ways we can show our faith to our world is by contributing to needs. In the early church, Tabitha was well known for serving others. Her death caused many to grieve, but her new life became a testimony of Jesus’ power. What do we want our lives to contribute to this world? My Next Step(s): - I will make a decision to contribute intentionally. - I will discover “my thing” that God has blessed me with, so I can give personally. - I will collaborate and be a part of a greater work than I can accomplish alone.

Am I Open or Closed Off?

By: Pastor Augie Iadicicco
Series: ReOpening Christianity
It can be so easy to become click-ish. We have our friends, our cultural sensibilities, and our faith community. The early church struggled with this, too. But Peter and James reminded the early church that the Church should not put up barriers to entry, for it is by grace that we are counted as God’s family. My Next Step(s): - I will reflect upon the ways that I discriminate against others—subtly or overtly. - I will seek to be more open and welcoming to others - I will lead with Grace because God leads with Grace. - I will pray for, and do my part to help us all become “one in Christ.” Visit RedeemerbytheSea.org/Online-Worship for more information!

Lying Means Roar

By: Pastor Augie Iadicicco

Lying Means Roar. Do you ever feel like you are being sabotaged? As Jesus followers, we have a real enemy. In order to defeat him we must first recognize his tactics...

The Chaotic Cookout

By: Rev. Bil Hood
Series: (All)

How do we respond to chaotic times? Are we even equipped for some of the toughest tasks we may face? The disciples were probably asking themselves similar questions when they were faced with a crowd of hungry, tired people. Jesus could have snapped his fingers and taken care of it, but instead he turned to the disciples and asked them to deal with it. We may want to take note of this story and see if it something we may need to apply to our lives today. Visit redeemerbythesea.org/online-worship for more information!

Ending the Scarcity Cycle

By: Pastor Augie Iadicicco
Series: Stay Positive
How do we inoculate ourselves against the scarcity mindset? How do we decide to live with the abundance mindset that reminds us God is more than enough? In this message, we find out how to stop the scarcity cycle using three principles of provision and how to stay positive through faith in God!

My Next Step(s): ○ I will starve my scarcity mindset and feed my abundance mindset. ○ I will not diminish what I have, but instead offer it to the Lord. ○ I will trust God to do something extravagant through what seems insignificant. ○ I will “pour” because I belong to the God of “more.”

Get Your Passion Back

By: Pastor Augie Iadicicco
Series: Stay Positive
Spiritual enthusiasm is contagious. If you’ve lost your passion, it’s time to get it back! Remember, it’s not what you do that makes it meaningful, it’s who you do it for. If you need a reminder of the passion you once had, Week 5 of “Stay Positive” can help! My Next Step(s): - I will feed my enthusiasm (in the Spirit) and starve my apathy. - I will serve with enthusiasm, as if serving the Lord in all that I do. (Colossians 3:23) - I will find meaning in my work, not in what I am doing, but who I am doing it for. - I will trust, walk with, and worship God daily.
