How does this happen? How do we have great experiences with Jesus and then suddenly abandon our faith and end up in places where we are asking, "How does this happen?" http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/exodus-the-great-escape-part-5 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/exodus-the-great-escape-5.mp3 Sun, 30 Oct 2011 15:39:52 GMT Michael Dennis Exodus: The Great Escape On Sunday we looked at Exodus 25:1-8 to discover how we can experience the presence of God. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/exodus-the-great-escape-part-4 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/exodus-the-great-escape-part-5.mp3 Sun, 23 Oct 2011 21:09:34 GMT Tim Birdwell Exodus: The Great Escape On Sunday we looked at Exodus 20:1-6 and discovered that relationship always precedes rules with God. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/exodus-the-great-escape-part-3 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/the-great-escape-part-4.mp3 Sun, 16 Oct 2011 21:09:14 GMT Tim Birdwell Exodus: The Great Escape http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/exodus-the-great-escape-part-2 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/exodus-the-great-escape-part-3.mp3 Sun, 09 Oct 2011 21:08:46 GMT Michael Dennis Exodus: The Great Escape On Sunday we started a new series in Exodus and we were able to see how today we can identify with the slavery of Israel and the call of Moses in such a way that it points us to the gospel. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/the-great-escape http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/the-great-escape.mp3 Sun, 02 Oct 2011 07:02:01 GMT Michael Dennis Exodus: The Great Escape On Sunday we celebrated two years as a church! It was a lot of fun. All the children stayed in the worship service and we provided a lesson for the children, a lesson for the adults, and it was a great picture of North Village Church becoming a church family. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/the-story-the-rescue http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/the-story-the-rescue.mp3 Sun, 18 Sep 2011 14:36:19 GMT Michael Dennis The Story Scripture is just one big story about God. "The Fall" is the part of the story where it seems like everything goes wrong, and it explains why we experience the pain we experience in our world today. However, that isn't the end of the story because God provided an answer to our pain through Jesus' work on the cross. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/the-story-the-fall http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/the-story-the-fall.mp3 Sun, 11 Sep 2011 06:16:01 GMT Michael Dennis The Story On Sunday we started a new series called The Story. Sometimes Scripture can be overwhelming with all the details, people and history. The story breaks all of Scripture down into 4 themes and the first one is Creation. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/the-story-creation http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/the-story-creation.mp3 Sun, 04 Sep 2011 03:13:54 GMT Michael Dennis The Story http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/knowing-gods-will-for-north-village-church http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/knowing-gods-will-for-north-village-church.mp3 Sun, 28 Aug 2011 16:44:36 GMT Knowing God's Will http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/knowing-gods-will-part-2-assorted-proverbs http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/knowing-gods-will.mp3 Sun, 21 Aug 2011 13:43:30 GMT Michael Dennis Knowing God's Will On Sunday we finished 1 John as we cover the things we can know when we trust in Jesus work on the cross. We can know we have eternal life, we can know He hears us, we can know we have an enemy, we can know we can overcome, and we can know the one who is worthy of our worship http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/these-things-we-know http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/these-things-we-know.mp3 Sun, 07 Aug 2011 17:23:39 GMT Michael Dennis "This is Love": A Study of 1 John http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/anchored-in-christ http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/anchored-in-christ.mp3 Sun, 31 Jul 2011 15:46:25 GMT Michael Dennis "This is Love": A Study of 1 John Scripture teaches us our motive for loving others doesn't come from guilt or what we get in return, but it comes out of our relationship with God. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/god-is-love http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/god-is-love.mp3 Sun, 24 Jul 2011 17:06:36 GMT Michael Dennis "This is Love": A Study of 1 John http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/discerning-truth http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/discerning-truth.mp3 Sun, 17 Jul 2011 14:31:30 GMT Michael Dennis "This is Love": A Study of 1 John In the message we look to Scripture to see how God's love moves us to love other people. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/love-one-another http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/love-one-another.mp3 Sun, 10 Jul 2011 14:16:50 GMT Michael Dennis "This is Love": A Study of 1 John In 1 John we see Scripture describe the difference between children of God and children of the devil. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/children-of-god http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/children-of-god.mp3 Sun, 03 Jul 2011 14:00:32 GMT Michael Dennis "This is Love": A Study of 1 John We look to 1 John to see what we need to be on guard against in our relationship with God. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/do-not-love-the-world http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/do-not-love-the-world.mp3 Sun, 26 Jun 2011 00:28:54 GMT Michael Dennis "This is Love": A Study of 1 John Scripture teaches Jesus cleanses us from all sin, but sometimes we don't feel cleansed from all sin. In 1 John Scripture teaches us how to respond to the sin we see in our lives so that we can walk in a relationship with God. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/walking-in-a-relationship-with-god http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/walking-in-a-relationship-with-god.mp3 Sun, 12 Jun 2011 22:21:11 GMT Michael Dennis "This is Love": A Study of 1 John On Sunday we looked to Scripture to see God is inviting us into a relationship where we can find comfort, confidence, and security. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/invited-into-a-relationship-with-god http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/invited-into-a-relationship-with-god.mp3 Sun, 05 Jun 2011 19:26:25 GMT Michael Dennis "This is Love": A Study of 1 John Last Sunday we looked at 2 Corinthians 9:6-11 and learned that Giving connects you to something bigger... namely, what God is doing in the world. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/treasure-part-2 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/treasure-part-2.mp3 Sun, 29 May 2011 04:28:54 GMT Tim Birdwell Treasure: A Biblical Understanding of Money On Sunday we looked at 2 Corinthians 8 to have a biblical perspective toward money. When we look at Scripture we see money isn't a source of security or pleasure, but it is a picture of God's grace in the lives of other people. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/treasure-part-1 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/treasure-part-1.mp3 Sun, 22 May 2011 04:14:13 GMT Michael Dennis Treasure: A Biblical Understanding of Money This Sunday we finished studying through Habakkuk 3 to see throughout Scripture God teaching us that we can trust Him. However, He doesn't tell us to just trust Him but instead turns our faces toward His glory to see that He is trustworthy. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/habakkuk-why-god-part-3 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/habakkuk-why-god-part-3.mp3 Sun, 15 May 2011 22:14:38 GMT Michael Dennis Habakkuk: Why, God? We continue to look at Habakkuk chapter 2 to see how people in Scripture respond when we don't understand what God is doing. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/habakkuk-why-god-part-2 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/habakkuk-why-god-part-2.mp3 Sun, 08 May 2011 15:13:23 GMT Rhesa Browning Habakkuk: Why, God? On Sunday we looked at Habakkuk Chapter 1 to see how God responds to our pain and frustration with what's happening in the world. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/habakkuk-why-god-part-1 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/habakkuk-why-god.mp3 Sun, 01 May 2011 14:34:07 GMT Michael Dennis Habakkuk: Why, God? On Easter Sunday we looked at Scripture to see that even though we sinned against God He has provided a way in which we can be declared righteous. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/forgiveness-romans-324 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/forgiveness-romans-324.mp3 Sun, 24 Apr 2011 05:18:22 GMT Michael Dennis Forgiveness We look at Romans 3:23 which teaches us "all have sinned" and in order to understand the depth of our offense we start at the very beginning to see how it all started. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/forgiveness-romans-323 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/forgiveness-what-did-we-do.mp3 Sun, 17 Apr 2011 01:45:46 GMT Michael Dennis Forgiveness On Sunday we celebrated a 35-Day Spiritual Journey. We spent the last 35-Days reading, praying, fasting, and pressing into Jesus and instead of reflecting about what we didn't do we wanted to celebrate what Jesus has done. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/35-day-celebration http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/35-day-celebration.mp3 Sun, 10 Apr 2011 20:45:59 GMT North Village Church Spiritual Journey: The Holiness of God In this message we look to Scripture to see how we can walk in the holiness of God. It isn't something we do through our own effort, but through faith in what we have been given in Jesus Christ. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/faith-walking-in-holiness-romans-121-2 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/faith-walking-in-holiness-romans-121-2.mp3 Sun, 03 Apr 2011 13:26:56 GMT Tim Birdwell Spiritual Journey: The Holiness of God When we read Romans 5 it teaches us when we trust in Jesus' work on the cross there is a supernatural transaction where Jesus takes account for our sin and we receive His righteousness. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/spiritual-journey--our-access-to-holiness-romans-512-19 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/jesus-our-access.mp3 Sun, 27 Mar 2011 20:17:58 GMT Michael Dennis Spiritual Journey: The Holiness of God In Colossians 1:13-20 we see a description of Jesus that is greater than anything we could imagine. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/jesus-our-fulfillment-of-holiness-colossians-113-20 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/jesus-our-fulfillment-of-holiness-colossians-113-20.mp3 Sun, 20 Mar 2011 03:23:11 GMT Michael Dennis Spiritual Journey: The Holiness of God On Sunday we looked at Isaiah 53:2-6 to be reminded that we were created to be in relationship with God, however, we responded in rebellion and ran the opposite way. Despite our rebellion God chases after us and it isn't to ignore our sin, but to take the punishment of our sin upon Himself. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/his-justice-our-sin-isaiah-532-6 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/his-justice-our-sin.mp3 Sun, 13 Mar 2011 04:53:21 GMT Michael Dennis Spiritual Journey: The Holiness of God This Sunday we started our spiritual journey on the holiness of God. We looked at Isaiah 6:1-8 to see that God is sovereign, holy, and knowable and it is His holiness that leads us to a place of humility. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/holiness-defined-isaiah-61-8 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/holiness-defined-isaiah-61-8.mp3 Sun, 06 Mar 2011 17:32:59 GMT Michael Dennis Spiritual Journey: The Holiness of God We finish our series on Spiritual Conversation to see how Jesus interacts with people who continue to make excuses. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/how-does-jesus-have-spiritual-conversations-excuses-luke-957-62 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/how-does-jesus-have-spiritual-conversations-excuses-luke-957-62.mp3 Sun, 27 Feb 2011 23:56:06 GMT Michael Dennis How Does Jesus Have Spiritual Conversations Our spiritual conversations don't always work out the way we planned, but that doesn't mean they are a waste of time. In Matthew 19 we see Jesus have a spiritual conversation with the rich young ruler who seems to walk away and show little response to the gospel. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/how-does-jesus-have-spiritual-conversations-significance-matthew-1916-26 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/how-does-jesus-have-spiritual-conversations-significance-matthew-1916-26.mp3 Sun, 13 Feb 2011 17:21:10 GMT Rhesa Browning How Does Jesus Have Spiritual Conversations How do you have spiritual conversations with other people?

This week we discussed our third value as a church, connecting with the community. In this lesson we see Scripture teach us how to experience a church that will be a benefit to the community. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/connecting-with-the-community-matthew-513-18 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/connecting-with-the-community-matthew-513-18.mp3 Sun, 16 Jan 2011 08:06:08 GMT Michael Dennis What is a Christ-follower?

As we start a new year we are going to discuss the vision of our church. Throughout the message we break into groups to discuss as a whole how we can more effectively live out the vision of North Village Church. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/what-is-a-christ-follower-connecting-with-jesus-titus-34-7 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/what-is-a-christ-follower-connecting-with-jesus-titus-34-7.mp3 Sun, 02 Jan 2011 04:22:30 GMT Michael Dennis What is a Christ-follower?

We looked at 1 Peter 5:6-14 to see that we are able to stand firm in our faith when we have a biblical understanding of God, our enemy, and eternity. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/stand-firm-1-peter-56-14 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/stand-firm-1-peter-56-14.mp3 Sun, 05 Dec 2010 01:27:00 GMT Michael Dennis 1 Peter: Revealed On Sunday we looked at 1 Peter 5:1-5 and see that Jesus has entrusted the leadership of the local church to elders. In the passage we see what elders do, what they don't do, and how we should respond. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/elders-1-peter-51-5 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/elders-1-peter-51-5.mp3 Sun, 28 Nov 2010 01:02:55 GMT Michael Dennis 1 Peter: Revealed In 1 Peter we see Scripture call us out of timidity to share in the sufferings of Christ. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/sharing-in-the-sufferings-of-christ-1-peter-412-19 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/sharing-in-the-sufferings-of-christ.mp3 Sun, 21 Nov 2010 19:02:20 GMT Michael Dennis 1 Peter: Revealed http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/the-mind-of-christ-1-peter-41-11 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/the-mind-of-christ-1-peter-41-11.mp3 Sun, 14 Nov 2010 01:03:26 GMT Tim Birdwell 1 Peter: Revealed In Scripture we see Jesus' example of experiencing suffering for doing the right thing which was dying on a cross for our sin. He died for it and He overcame sin so that through faith in Him we might live a life of victory. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/the-cross-1-peter-318-22 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/the-cross-1-peter-318-22.mp3 Sun, 07 Nov 2010 19:32:50 GMT Michael Dennis 1 Peter: Revealed This the passage the original audience is suffering for doing good things.

If God loves them and us so much then why do bad things happen? Scripture teaches this all comes to the surface on a biblical understanding of submission. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/submission-1-peter-213-25 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/submission-1-peter-213-25.mp3 Sun, 17 Oct 2010 16:02:56 GMT Michael Dennis 1 Peter: Revealed In chapter two Scripture teaches us there are two types of people in this world.

These characters are all a result of the great salvation we have been given in Jesus Christ. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/therefore-1-peter-113-21 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/therefore-1-peter-113-21.mp3 Sun, 26 Sep 2010 19:37:20 GMT Michael Dennis 1 Peter: Revealed In chapter 1:3-12 we see that we have been given a living hope through faith in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. http://www.northvillagechurch.com/sermon/living-hope-1-peter-13-12 http://www.northvillagechurch.com/mediafiles/living-hope-1-peter-13-12.mp3 Sun, 19 Sep 2010 13:40:36 GMT Michael Dennis 1 Peter: Revealed living_hope In this message we celebrate our first year anniversary by starting a new series in 1 Peter.
