Sermons

Justin Adams focuses on John 3:16 and talks about the greatest gift that God gave the world. He encourages us to unwrap the gift.

We gather together for our annual Christmas Eve Candlelight service as Rev. Nadeem shares what true Peace can feel like and how this gift of Peace has already been given to us as Christians.

Rev. Nadeem shares the integral part that Joseph plays in the birth of Jesus. We hear how The Love of Emmanuel was demonstrated through Joseph’s life and how that love impacted Jesus, Mary and ultimately our redemption.

Christians, who belong to Jesus Christ should be the people that have great joy in our lives by default. Just imagine if others saw lives and coveted the joy and came to us wondering and wanting to have what we have. The Mega JOY! But the fact of the matter is that for many Christians this JOY is a fantasy. In the sermon, while pastor Nadeem teaches and explains the original setting of the Inn and Manger or stable in Jesus time, which were very different than what we see today in the nativity scenes, he talks about the source of true joy and that how we can receive and experience that joy in our lives.

This Sunday Steven Knotts, Crenshaw’s lay speaker shares a meditation on what Christ said about peace and what it means to us, as Christians, in our day to day lives.

In this sermon, Rev. Nadeem Jesus focuses on the genealogical record of Jesus Christ in the gospel of Matthew chapter 1 and talks about how God uses imperfect people to accomplish His perfect purposes. God uses all imperfect people in Jesus’ family to fulfill His purpose and promise to bring into the world a perfect human being, our savior, Jesus Christ. God’s plan still continues and He gladly uses us, imperfect people, to accomplish His perfect purpose.

In this sermon, Rev. Nadeem Jesus teachings on reconciliation with our brother and sister. God will not only judge us for our actions but much more for what we have inside, the hatred and anger that we harbor in our hearts for others.

In this sermon Rev. Nadeem focuses the famous story of the prodigal. In this parable the father of the young prodigal son reflects the character of Jesus Christ who takes all shame and condemnation on himself that was due to the son. God is always looking for the prodigal sons and daughters to return to him. God waits as a longing father.

In the sermon, Pastor Nadeem focuses on the parable of the fig tree and teaches what kind of fruit God expects to see in us when he returns.

In the sermon, Pastor Nadeem focuses on the story of the good Samaritan. In this story, Jesus teaches us to be the neighbor instead of concerning ourselves with who is our neighbor. Good neighbor, like the Samaritan in the story, “See, Feel and Respond.”

Pastor Nadeem focuses the parable of the talents in Matthew 25:14-30 and talks about how God calls us to be ready for His coming. God gave us all talents (that include both money and skills) and will take an account. Good and Faithful servants put those talents to work to participate in the Kingdom’s work. Are You A Good and Faithful Servant?

Jesus is coming. There is no doubt about that. And He is teaching us this morning to be ready, because he can come anytime. Who knows Jesus comes right now. So be vigilant. And Jesus tells the disciples to be vigilant every day and every moment because He will come at an hour when you don’t expect him.
