This week we continue in our journey with Job as Pastor Tyler preaches from Job chapter 2. In Job 1, we learned that Satan is granted permission from God to inflict much suffering on Job. Satan wreaks havoc and take all his possessions. Job loses his children and tons of livestock in the process; but Job never turns on God. Instead, he worshipped Him. Satan is unfortunately back for a sequel performance this week, as he is once again given permission from God to bring pain to Job. This time, it is on his physical body. How much more can Job endure? Sometimes there's only so much that can be said to a man, woman, or family in times of inexplicable pain or loss. In today's text, we learn that sometimes silence is what is called for in the situation, and that just being there for someone can be powerful in its own right. Phos Church Sunday Sermon: 1-12-2025

Welcome to 2025! We hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season, and we pray you all have a fantastic year ahead! If you happen to read this before watching this sermon, we invite you to watch this amazing video by Bob Sorge that we played for the congregation at our Sunday service, which will give additional context to the start of our sermon this week: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9FZ5uM_YfB4 To start the year off, we are kicking off a new sermon series entitled "Wounds & Wisdom: Suffering, God, and the Redemption of Job." Pastor Tyler is in Job chapter 1 where we are introduced to a "blameless and upright" man named Job, who loved and feared God. Because of this, Satan goes to God to ask for permission to afflict Job in order to try and prove that Job only loves God because of his riches given by Him. Satan's permission is granted (with limitations). Why would God allow for this (or tests and trials in our own lives)? We invite you to dive in with us in this sermon series to find out more. We pray that it brings you more understanding, wisdom, and comfort (no matter where life goes). Phos Church Sunday Sermon: 1-5-2025

Wait....God doesn't keep His promises? This week, Pastor Tyler dives into the subject of faith and God's promises in our lives. Referencing Hebrews 11:32-40, we see faith that produces miracles...but also faith that brings persecution. How do we reconcile in our minds when God gives what is "good," yet that doesn't always look the same on paper as we might expect? We see the tension that both the saints of old and we ourselves wrestle with: is God faithful when life is hard? We desperately want to experience God's blessings and favor, but often miss that our lives and story are part of a bigger story, and within the larger narrative we can clearly see God's faithfulness and promises kept (and yet to come). This message deals with how to endure when we don't get the outcome we expect from a good God. Phos Church Sunday Sermon: 12-29-2024

The birth of Jesus Christ is the best news to ever come to humanity. The King of kings and Lord of lords, humbling himself to come to earth to live sinless human life as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. His coming to us is the road to salvation and eternal life with God; the greatest gift we could ever receive (if we choose to receive it). And it's at this time every year that we get the privilege to celebrate the beginning of that journey He endured for us. Merry Christmas from all of us at Phos Church! We pray that you all have an amazing and joyful holiday! God bless! Phos Church Christmas Eve Sermon 12-24-2024

In the final week of our sermon series, Surprised by Grace, we're in Luke 7, touching on the story involving a sinful woman who is forgiven, and a self-righteous Pharisee. The story is a beautiful illustration of how God's grace is freely there for us to receive and accept, without having to clean ourselves up beforehand. It also showcases that we're not saved by following the rules of the law out of religiosity, but that love has to be at the center of everything. We all need grace (no matter the depth). We can compare to others on paper our list of sins and faults, but at the end of the day, not one of us is considered more righteous than the other (in God's eyes) unless we freely can accept His forgiveness and grace by choosing Jesus to be our Lord and savior, which brings us into a righteous relationship with Him. We hope you have enjoyed this series on God's grace, and that you have been able to find more grace for yourself, and others, as you continue to journey forward in your life. We also pray that God's love may be more known in your life, if you are struggling to see or feel it at the moment as well. Phos Church Sunday Sermon: 12-22-2024

This week we're in John 4 as Pastor Tyler tells the story of the Samaritan woman at the well. In this story of grace, we find a woman, shameful of her past and present circumstances, retrieving water at a well in Sychar in the middle of the day; but then she meets Jesus. This woman's life turns from shame and despair to vitality and freedom in an instant because of her encounter with Jesus (who knew everything about her). His grace confronts every nook and cranny of our existence. It breaks down the barriers, addresses our pains, digs past our shame, frees us, and then sends us out with new life, hope, and a message to share.

In the past 4 weeks, we’ve covered how God’s grace can be found when we fall, when we run, that it meets us where we’re at in our life, and also doesn’t let go of us (even if we try to let go of it). Forgiveness is a huge part of how God treats us in His grace and mercy when we come to him in repentance. But it doesn’t end there. God’s grace more than forgives. It pursues us, transforms us, and restores us. With the 5th sermon in our series, Surprised by Grace, Pastor Tyler preaches this week in the book of Luke, chapter 19, with the story of Zacchaeus the tax collector. In this story, we find a man whose heart and character is turned from one way into another because he met Jesus Christ. Within the midst of that, we see how God’s grace pursued, transformed, and restored Zacchaeus. Phos Church Sunday Sermon: 12-8-2024

God's grace knows no bounds. It'll meet you where you're at, when we fail, or even during the great times in life. No matter what, God's grace is inescapable (even if we run). One of the most famous examples of someone running from God's call on their life is found in the book of Jonah; and that is where we continue our Surprised by Grace sermon series this week. Pastor Tyler illustrates that even when Jonah wanted nothing to do with where God was leading him at the time, God's grace can still be found. Phos Church Sunday Sermon: 12-1-2024

Continuing on in our latest series, Surprised by Grace, this week's sermon by Pastor Tyler references to the story of Moses and meeting God in the burning bush in Exodus 3. We're all imperfect people, including some of the greats like Moses. Moses wasn't chosen by God to lead the Israelites out of Egypt because of his accomplishments, abilities, or morality. He was called because of God's grace, and Moses' availability. Like Moses, God meets you where you're at now. We're not often (if ever) going to feel fully worthy to take on God's call in our own life at times. But God's grace helps us in our times in the wilderness and through our inadequacies and shortcomings. Phos Church Sunday Sermon: 11-24-2024
