At some point, we can no longer let our suffering define us, or dictate our future. It’s not easy or simple, and it takes a lot of leaning into the Holy Spirit. Yet the truth still remains, our pain can have purpose, we can grow and learn from our suffering. At the end of the day, we can have hope again, but it may take something on our part, something we have received and something God calls us to freely give. In this message Ps. Lukas shares how healing happens, when we stop worrying about revenge and justice, and start offering forgiveness and love.

Every one of us will walk through hardship, and even though grief and pain has a mind of its own, by God’s grace we can walk a righteous path amidst the suffering and see God move us from trial to triumph. God is the author of life and gets to finish every single person’s story, we must trust him and watch God move in our pain and learn to truly suffer well in His eyes, so we can leave the door open for blessing and restoration.

We kickoff our series on suffering tackling the hardest most asked question on the topic, “why does God allow suffering in the world?” Ps. Lukas tackles this question both theologically and philosophically helping us see that as we look at every worldview the only one with an answer that brings comfort, healing, hope and restoration is the Christian worldview. The truth is this, God has a master plan and although suffering is a reality for all of us, God doesn’t leave us to suffer alone, where there is suffering, you will find His love.

What does it mean to be radically generous? Is it purely financial? Is it giving beyond our means? In this sermon Ps. Lukas breaks down a well-known verse that is just as much about loyalty to the kingdom as it is about where your money goes. In this message you will also hear a heartfelt update on the growth of our church, the vision of where we are headed and how we can all be radically generous laying down our preferences and focusing on our purpose and vision of reaching the lost and creating space not just for who is in our community, but who isn’t.

The Church was never meant to be something to just come and consume. WE are the church; WE are the body of Christ. A homecoming means every person, and every part of the body plays its part, but our part isn’t bigger than what we are a part of. In this sermon Ps. Lukas challenges us to become contributors and champions to God’s mission and God’s church, because the vision He has for us will take every one of us.

A strong reality that many Christians don’t realize is you can be saved and yet not free. God can redeem your soul and yet your mind and body can still be slaves. Ps. Lukas breaks down what it looks like to trust God and experience freedom from the past, the flesh and the enemy. WE can live FREE with a future... or we can live as slaves to the past.

At Elim Church, we exist to be a life-giving community taking steps on the journey to be more like Jesus. Yet, we can’t take steps to be more like Jesus without first an encounter with Jesus himself. The truth is, one simple encounter, can heal your body, transform your mind, redeem your identity and save your soul. So, what are you waiting for?

Homecoming is not just about school starting, pumpkin spice latte’s and coming back to church because it’s the fall. We are preaching and believing for a spiritual homecoming, a return to healing, hope and back to life-giving community.
