Hope Community Church Podcasts: Weekend Messages

The sixth and final message in the "You @ Work" series from Mike Lee at Hope Community Church on March 16/17th. In an age when ethics are being stretched to the limit, doing the right thing isn't always easy. What do we do when our work conflicts with our principles?

Message from Mike Lee, Pastor of Hope Community Church from the weekend of March 23/24 2013. The week began with palm branches and celebration, but it didn’t end that way. And as we prepare for the triumph of Easter, we must first each take our own solitary journey to the cross.

The second message in the "You @ Work" series from Mike Lee at Hope Community Church on Feb 16/17. In a world of extremes, balancing the professional and personal callings on our life is challenging. How do we navigate these responsibilities and make choices that reflect our relationship with Christ?

The first message in the "You @ Work" series from Mike Lee at Hope Community Church on Feb 9-10th. Given that God's Word is clear on this matter, why do we find it so difficult to respect those in authority over us? Why do we find rebellion against authority so natural and easy? How can we turn that around?

The third message in the "You @ Work" series from Mike Lee at Hope Community Church on Feb 23-24th. What do great bosses know that make them so good? What God-honoring principles line up with a Christ-following leader?

You're more than a sidekick and your story matters. It can even help change the world. Are you sharing it?

This weekend we'll celebrate how Hope has been helping to change the world both near and far. Celebrate with us as we share stories of triumph, life change and the living out of Acts 1:8.

The fourth message in the "You @ Work" series from Mike Lee at Hope Community Church on March 2/3. Given that God's Word is clear on this matter, why do we find it so difficult to respect those in authority over us? Why do we find rebellion against authority so natural and easy? How can we turn that around?

Because the characteristics described in the Beatitudes flagrantly counter the world's way of doing things, conflict with those who identify with Christ is inevitable.

God has poured out His blessings on Hope Community Church, but with His blessings come great responsibilities. It's time to fully grasp and activate our superpower.

Jesus said "...go into all the world and preach the good news to everyone." It's not about missions, it's about being on mission.

Purity of heart holds a mirror to our deepest motivations, purposes and desires, and determines what we'll do about them.

When we have truly mourned our sin, we gladly take the next step of submitting our will to God's.

As we hunger after God, we'll become more like Him by giving grace to the undeserving and mercy to the miserable.

When God tells us to trust Him, what risk are we willing to take to do so?

God is great, God is good. It’s a short prayer we dutifully recite. But do our lives really reflect our thankfulness? What moments and methods find us displaying thankful hearts to a gracious Savior? Join us for this special Thanksgiving message.

We like seeing all the cards before we make a move but God tells us to lay them down and trust Him.

Why is it we often tend to view God only as a stern, unhappy deity overseeing all we do? Jesus tackles that head on when his first message on earth tells how and why God wants us to be happy.

Being poor in spirit means recognizing our spiritual need for God.

Recognizing our need for God leads to mourning in our hearts over our sinful condition that separates us from Him.
