Salem Fields Weekly Audio Message

Our series, "Back To School" has focused on getting back to the basics of the Christian faith. In this message we will explore the Holy Spirit, who He is, His purpose on earth and in our lives. The Holy Spirit has a job description and the Bible is very clear on His work. Invite a friend to watch as we not only learn more about the Holy Spirit, but experience His presence in a fresh, new way.

There are some things in our lives that are easy to talk about like why you look great in faded jeans or why you're a rock star in the shower. However there are tough things that are just easier to accept and move on. Like why the hot and ready sign at Krispy Kreme makes you pull in no matter what or your faith. Wait, is faith really one of those things that cannot be explained? Or can it? Invite a friend to watch and we will explore this thing called faith.

There are some issues in life too big to understand. This weekend's subject, The Trinity, says to us that there are some things in life too big for us to wrap our little minds around. Join us in this message as we begin a new series called “Back to School.” Our prayer is that during this series you will gain a clearer picture of God.

Being prepared is a key motto of the Boy Scouts and should be the motto for our lives as believers. In life and in hosting a cookout, the preparation process is the one thing that will help lead you to a place of success. Over the past few weeks, we have talked about having the proper equipment, the right seasoning, and allowing for the proper cooking time. This week we will bring all of these things together as we talk about one of my favorite things at a cook out: the side dishes. One of the best side dishes at a summer cookout is the fresh fruit or fruit salad (yummy yummy). What’s your favorite side dish? Invite a friend to church to watch this message!

They say that in BBQ’ing, timing is everything. Any back yard grill master can tell you that if you turn the meat to quickly or wait to long, that perfect meal can become a disaster. There are entire books written about the importance of timing and how it can make or break the perfect BBQ. Our life decisions can be just like that BBQ. It seems we have a narrow opportunity to make just the right decision and if we miss it, lives might be ruined.

It’s time for family, friends and barbecues. On any given summer day, you can walk outside and smell the sweet aroma of dinner cooking on the grill. For many, there is nothing better than a perfectly seasoned burger or steak. Many of us have created our own secret seasoning, and most certainly one of the ingredients will be salt. Salt enhances flavors and acts as a preservative. Salt is that one key ingredient. In this message, as we continue the Cookout series, we will discuss that perfect seasoning ingredient and what role it has in making any cookout a success.

Summer is well under way and with the season brings a lot of hot days, and the family cookouts. Now you can throw together a cookout pretty quick, or plan for cookouts weeks in advance. No matter when you have planned for your cookout to take place there is always preparation involved. The same holds true for our life. We can plan well in advance for things to happen or we can simply make something happen in the spur of the moment. The key to making these things happen is being prepared. The key to having a great cook out is to be properly equipped for the task at hand, and the key for facing life’s challenges also involves being properly equipped. With the proper equipment on we can meet any challenge in life or on the grill. Join us in this message as we discover what equipment we need to have on hand.

Is marriage God’s idea? It depends on what you mean. Yes, marriage itself is God’s idea; but not every marriage is God’s idea. Some people shouldn’t get married - at least not to each other. But the idea of marriage itself is good because it originated with God. Join us this in this message as we talk about marriage and top it off with a huge surprise.

God gave everything for you. What is God receiving from you and what are you willing to give? It's time to honor God with everything.

We finish up our series, "TWISTED" by looking at a common misconception we have when bad things happen in our life and world - "God's Not There." We're tempted to believe that even if He is out there somewhere, He must not care. Invite a friend to watch as we explore God's true character and His promise for all mankind.

In this message we will continue our series "Twisted". In our politically correct world, it is very common to hear that there are many different ways to God. Join us as we unpack one of the most common twisted thinking in our culture.

In this message we will explore what it means to depend on God's provision for our lives. We'll look at how even the disciples, who saw Jesus perform miracles that fed thousands with just a few loaves of bread, didn't always understand. Bottom line, you can trust God to provide because your "little" becomes "much" when you place it in the hands of Jesus.

The philosophy of our day is you can do whatever you want as long as it doesn’t hurt anyone. Join us in this message as we continue our series “Twisted” as we unwind the twisted thinking of this philosophy.

Without realizing it, our beliefs can get twisted, affecting our view of God & how He works. Our challenge is to be open to finding His truth. Jesus & His Word specializes in course correction. This in message we'll look at a common misconception that says, "God Just Wants Me To Be Happy."

Do you ever get to the point in your life when you say “I just can’t take anymore.” If so join us in this message as we continue our series “Twisted” as we look at another belief that we have that is actually twisted.

We're excited to start a new, four-part message series called "Twisted". Over the next four weeks, we'll look at four beliefs that people today have credited to God, but in reality, have gotten twisted. And we'll see how easy it is for our thinking and beliefs to get twisted about what the Bible teaches.Invite a friend to watch as we begin unraveling the first twisted belief.

Throughout American history, citizens were called to stand up and defend freedom. Yet, before America was America, a group of people we now call Patriots, decided that even if it meant losing personal happiness or even their lives, they'd stand up to tyranny to create a new country. Charging into battle, they shouted "for God and Country!" Join us in this message to discover what it means to be a spiritual patriot and what it holds for the future.

It seems we believe in America that if we invite Jesus into our heart and then go to church once in awhile, say a few prayers and read our Bible from time to time, we're good to go. But is that what Jesus intended when He said, "Follow Me"? Join us in this message as we unpack what it really means to be a Disciple of Jesus Christ.
