College Wesleyan Church Sermons

Steve DeNeff:
"Resurrection is a weapon. It is a shot that reignites a fiery engagement between forces claiming lordship over creation. It is not only about a man. It's about a war." And since our battle is not against flesh and blood, we cannot use conventional weapons nor engage in the adversary in the same way. These are the weapons, and this is how we fight.

Steve DeNeff: The power that raised Jesus from the dead is the power, not to overwhelm our adversaries but to endure them, to expose them, to convert them.

Nathan Metz: Jesus simply said, “Remember Lot’s wife.” What a loaded caution! When we consider the full context of the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, what are the implications for our lives? This sermon explores three distinct relationships to our past and the hope we have in a great salvation.

Ethan Linder: Paul writes to the church in Ephesus connecting prayer with the power of the resurrection, leaving us to wonder: what does that mean for our prayers right now? What is the advantage of the resurrection (if any) for our everyday lives and experiences? In this sermon, we’ll overhear Paul’s prayers, exploring how prayer joins us with God’s mission of bringing new life, and how Jesus’ resurrection changes what we can expect when we pray.

Steve DeNeff: If salvation is like passing from death to life (Jn 5:24; 1 Jn 3:14), then discipleship is the practice of resurrection with the hope of one day being fully alive.
