Church In The Valley - Ontario Ranch Campus

The mission God has for the church requires teamwork. God distributes different talents, abilities, and gifts to His followers. These gifts are meant to complement one another to accomplish the Great Commission in the local church.

This week we are going to look at why we have an unshakeable hope and optimism about the future and how we should act accordingly.

Christ calls us to be salt and light, people of maturity, stable for our families and church.

God is sovereign over all, including the prosperity of the wicked and the reality of injustice. His promise of ultimate judgment provides a foundation for rest and hope amidst persecution and wrongdoing. Believers are called to respond to injustice with faith and courage, confronting evil with the assurance of God's righteous plans.

Since our God reigns over America, since God is in control and since He is not giving us more than we can handle we can focus on our stewardship here in this nation and with this government we have.

Biblical self-control is mastery over one's desires and passions. When you look at self-control throughout the Bible you find it specifically relating to mastering one's appetite or alcohol consumption, or sexual impulses, or just general mastery over the desires and passions that are contrary to God's ways.

Gentleness is a tender, compassionate approach toward other's weaknesses and limitations. In this message we learn to ask God to help practice gentleness in D.O.U.G.H.

True faith, often misunderstood, is rooted in biblical teachings from original Greek and Hebrew concepts. It acknowledges God as the creator of reality, beyond its constraints. Despite the enemy's deceptions, faith empowered by the Holy Spirit aligns believers with God's true reality. Trials and temptations serve to test and strengthen this faith, guiding believers away from worldly distortions.

God is the standard of morality. Without Him, true morality has no foundation. Can you be "Good without God"? In this sermon we learn that goodness and morality are defined by God, making morality an objective truth. As an objective truth, we cannot define morality and goodness however we want.

This sermon is on the relationship between the 5th commandment and Patriotism, or LOVE or DEVOTION for one's nation, people, and heritage.

God's kindness to us is the example for how we ought to treat others. And His kindness is meant to lead His people to live life His way. And the kindness that we show to others is meant to do the same.

Patience means to be in a state of emotional calm in the face of provocation or misfortune without complaint or irritation. This message talks about unpacking this definition and what it means for our own lives.

True peace of God, which transcends all understanding, guards our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). This peace is a deep sense of contentment and assurance that comes from trusting in God.

Joy should be a hallmark of Christ followers in the good times and the bad. Amidst suffering, Christ followers can experience joy that those who don't know Christ won't.

Today we talk about , "How do we grow to be more loving?" The answer is we study the law of God, and we study the commands of God. We love His commands because they reveal what is good and we want to do good for God and others.

Fruit is developed from a seed in the ground. The seed is buried and then is transformed into a plant. Once the plant grows to maturity fruit is the natural byproduct. Fruit is never grown overnight. In the same way the fruit of our lives is not developed overnight. It is planted then cultivated and grown over a period of time. All of us develop fruit from the choices we make in life. The question is what kind of fruit are you producing? If your life was like a piece of fruit and was peeled, would the fruit be sweet or sour?
