Be a Productive Part of God’s Work

Jesus’ parable of the wheat and the weeds reminds us of the ongoing spiritual battle in the world. God, the good sower, plants seeds of faith and goodness, while the enemy sows seeds of sin and destruction. The field, representing the world, contains both wheat (believers) and weeds (those aligned with evil). Though they coexist […]

Truth about Truth – Matthew 13:1

This week’s message from Matthew 13 calls us to evaluate the condition of our hearts as we respond to God’s truth. Jesus shares the parable of the sower, highlighting how truth is received in various ways depending on the soil—the heart—into which it is planted.

Through simple, relatable terms, Jesus illustrates the transformative power of God’s word when it lands on fertile ground. The truth is clear and accessible, meant to inspire change and growth in our lives. Yet, not all hearts respond the same way. Some are hardened and resistant, others are shallow and uncommitted, while some are distracted by life’s worries. The good soil, however, receives the truth and bears fruit abundantly.

This message challenges us to reflect on the state of our hearts. Are we receptive to God’s word? Are we willing to let it take root and flourish, bringing lasting change? The truth of God’s word is constant and transformative, but its impact depends on how we embrace it. Let us open our hearts and allow God’s truth to grow and bear fruit in our lives.

Be Faithful. Be Fruitful.

The past couple weeks, Pastor Bill has lead us through a couple different parables that Jesus taught. Turn with me to the Gospel of John chapter 15. Technically, it’s not quite a parable, it’s still an important teaching of Jesus and very much comes across like a parable. As always, I like to put the […]

Spirituality – Genesis 24:45

This week, we explore what it means to respond to God from the heart and to offer ourselves in pure devotion and blessing. In Genesis 24:45, we find the servant praying silently, offering a profound reminder that God hears the quietest prayers of our hearts. The servant’s experience shows us the power of inward prayers, as God answers with exact guidance, confirming the mission by bringing Rebekah to the well.

This sermon calls us to three responses: First, to commune with God in authentic, heart-led prayer. We see how prayer isn’t always about spoken words but about sincerity, as seen with Hannah in 1 Samuel, who prayed with only her lips moving, yet God heard her anguish and answered. Second, we’re encouraged to bless others from a place of genuine love, as Rebekah’s family did when they sent her with words of support and a bright future. Lastly, we’re called to meditate—like Isaac did—quieting our busy minds to truly focus on God.

Reflecting on God’s work in our lives, we find inspiration to strengthen our spiritual habits: pray sincerely, bless generously, and seek stillness with God.

Wheat or Weeds

Welcome to Eagleville Church’s Livestream! We’re thrilled to have you with us as we explore Jesus’ parable of the wheat and weeds in Matthew 13. Today, we’ll reflect on how we’re each called to be productive parts of God’s kingdom.

Responding to God – Genesis 24

In this week’s sermon, we explore the servant’s response to God’s providential guidance as he seeks a wife for Isaac in Genesis 24. After witnessing how God leads him to the exact place he needs to be, the servant bows down in worship. This act of spontaneous praise reflects how we should respond when we see God’s hand at work in our lives.

We’ll dive into the importance of recognizing God’s providence: how He directs our steps, provides for our needs, and brings the right people into our lives at the right time. We’ll also challenge ourselves to be grateful for His constant faithfulness and kindness, and to cultivate a heart of worship, acknowledging that God never abandons us.

This week, the challenge is to praise God for all that He has done, recognizing His providence in our lives, and respond with gratitude and worship.

Welcome to Eagleville Church’s Livestream! We’re glad you’re joining us today as we dive into Jesus’ parable of the sower in Matthew 13.

Simple Prayers – Genesis 24

In this week’s sermon, we journey with Abraham’s servant on his assignment to find a wife for Isaac, a mission that carries tremendous weight. With all the challenges of cultural differences and traveling to foreign lands, the servant remains dependent on God. Through this story, we explore the power of simple prayers and how they lead to profound answers.

We’ll look at key insights from Genesis 24 on how prayer positions us in the right place to receive God’s answers. We will also delve into the nature of prayer: directing faith toward God, praying unselfishly, praying simply, and praying specifically. As we witness the servant’s journey to Nahor and the answer to his prayer, we’ll be reminded that God’s providence works ahead of us, often before we even finish our prayers.

This week, the challenge is to see how relying on simple, specific prayers can bring about God’s provision in ways beyond what we could imagine.
