LifeConnection no LifeConnection Church LifeConnection ℗ & © 2008 LifeConnection 720 As we join together with churches from around the world in the One Prayer series we begin on Father's Day with a teaching focused upon men living like men. The church today, our world today, needs men who will become sold out to Christ and take great risks for the kingdom. If you want to become a risk-taker for God it begins and ends with a fresh vision for God himself. This will be the only teaching from the series that will be posted. http://www.sermoncloud.com/lifeconnection/make-us--risk-takers http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/1544/make-us-risk-takers.mp3 Sun, 15 Jun 2008 16:08:24 CDT Jason Allen One Prayer men,masculinity,risk,one_prayer,david,goliath 36:48 Legitimate questions deserve honest responses.

The missional community we're striving to become is characterized, in the first place, by truth and next by embracing Beauty and finally Generosity. Our desire is to become generous with our whole lives (our Time, Talent, and Treasure). Generosity is ultimately fostered by embracing and savoring the generosity of Christ on the Cross. http://www.sermoncloud.com/lifeconnection/generosity http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/1544/generosity.mp3 Sun, 25 May 2008 19:21:04 CDT Jason Allen Helix philippians_2,generosity,cross 46:36 In this series we're looking at LifeConnection's Core DNA - the values that make us who we are. The missional community we're striving to become is characterized, in the first place, by truth and next by embracing Beauty. This beauty is more than physical beauty and artistry. It also includes creativity and innovation. We value beauty because the mission of God demands creativity. http://www.sermoncloud.com/lifeconnection/beauty http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/1544/beauty.mp3 Sun, 18 May 2008 08:06:03 CDT Jason Allen Helix 40:58 The lies women believe: The Wonder Woman Trap, The Comparison Trap, & The Acceptance Trap. http://www.sermoncloud.com/lifeconnection/the-lies-women-believe http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/1544/mothers-day.mp3 Sun, 11 May 2008 07:43:53 CDT Jason & Carrie Allen Mother's Day 38:51 In this series we're looking at LifeConnection's Core DNA.

We're all driven by something and over the next several weeks we'll see what drives us as a church. This week we look at God's invitation to join him in his mission in our world. Through the eyes of Jonah we'll discover God's heart for the city. http://www.sermoncloud.com/lifeconnection/mission http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/1544/mission.mp3 Sun, 20 Apr 2008 14:08:58 CDT Jason Allen Helix jonah,city,mission,mission_of_god 45:21 If we're going to experience change in our lives we need an encounter with God. This begins with an encounter with Christ which where we give Jesus our allegiance.

In Matthew 6, the model prayer, we discover that we can encounter God through prayer.

But what did that death accomplish? What significance does Jesus' death have for us today? This is what we explore on Easter Sunday as we consider Jesus' redemption of mankind. http://www.sermoncloud.com/lifeconnection/unexpected-hope http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/1544/unexpected-hope.mp3 Sun, 23 Mar 2008 14:24:59 CDT Jason Allen Jesus Uncensored jesus,the_cross,redemption,rescue 41:09 As we come to the end of Jesus' life we see him pleading with the Father to "let this cup pass." Why was the cross necessary? Why couldn't God just forgive us? Why did Jesus have to die? Through the scene in the garden we discover the profound necessity of the cross. http://www.sermoncloud.com/lifeconnection/is-there-any-other-way http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/1544/is-there-any-other-way.mp3 Sun, 16 Mar 2008 13:58:33 CDT Jason Allen Jesus Uncensored god's_holy_love,idolatry,sin,the_cross,jesus 40:22 Following Jesus is not a part-time voluntary gig. Following Jesus requires giving our full allegiance to him, relinquishing our rights, and our tendencies to place ourselves at the center of our universe. But the great irony is only when we give our lives to Jesus and his mission will we find ultimate meaning, fulfillment, and finally eternal life. While following Jesus and living for his mission requires much its the only way of life that brings hope to our world. http://www.sermoncloud.com/lifeconnection/lost--found http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/1544/lost--found.mp3 Sun, 09 Mar 2008 14:29:11 CDT Jason Allen Jesus Uncensored the_cross,discipleship,jesus 41:39 As Jesus encounters the rich young man we find that our attitude toward, the way we handle, and the how we spend our money forms a window into our lives displaying what we truly value. We all live for something. At the end of the day if we don't give our allegiance to Jesus we will give it to something or someone else. So what takes priority in our lives? http://www.sermoncloud.com/lifeconnection/for-ale-by-owner http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/1544/for-ale-by-owner.mp3 Sun, 02 Mar 2008 15:51:38 CST Jason Allen Jesus Uncensored jesus,wealth,idolatry 40:47 Messages of sex and sexuality are all around us and so often the biblical notions counteracting them seem quaint and old fashioned. Are the scriptures relevant to our lives today? Jesus has some very radical things to say about sexuality in the Sermon on the Mount.

What barriers do we place between God and people keeping people from encountering him? What in our lives, in our churches needs to change so that people can encounter Jesus? http://www.sermoncloud.com/lifeconnection/jesus-ticked http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/1544/jesus-ticked.mp3 Sun, 17 Feb 2008 12:19:49 CST Jason Allen Jesus Uncensored 40:13 Often Jesus is relegated to a nice guy, or good buddy who's there to chum around with. There can be a tendency to overlook Jesus saying difficult things, requiring much from his hearers, or claiming outlandish things about himself. But to only see "Buddy Jesus" is to miss the One who came from heaven and dwelt among us. The point of this series is to open people's eyes to a Jesus they never expected to see. Inviting them to deeper levels of commitment to Jesus. http://www.sermoncloud.com/lifeconnection/trail-rated http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/1544/trail-rated.mp3 Sun, 10 Feb 2008 00:07:34 CST Jason Allen Jesus Uncensored jesus,john_14,trail_rated,jesus_uncensored 39:29
