If only we had the right formula for the outcome we desire. When Jesus prayed, big things happened. Storms stopped, dead people were raised and He received instruction from his heavenly Father. What about you?

But why does it feel like Sunday mornings are the only time we’re close to God. In this message, Steven answers questions on how to accomplish Christ’s mission for our life and walk with God everyday. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/where-is-god-on-monday http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/you-asked-for-it-week-3.mp3 Sun, 01 Feb 2009 21:52:13 UTC Steven Gibbs You Asked For It 47:10 It’s hard to reconcile suffering’s existence and horrible toll with the reality of a loving God. Suffering can shake our faith and cause us to turn away from God. Suffering can also be an opportunity to ignite and strengthen our faith. In this message, Steven looks at the hard realities of suffering and how God is not the cause for evil in the world, but our perfecter through the pain. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/if-god-is-so-loving-why-is-there-suffering http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/you-asked-for-it-week-2.mp3 Sun, 25 Jan 2009 19:31:15 UTC Steven Gibbs You Asked For It 45:19 You submitted the questions and we have tried to provide Biblical truth to the most popular questions.

At Stonecreek, we are passionate about inviting those who are not in a church to come and experience the hope and life found in Jesus Christ. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/the-door http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/the-door-week-1.mp3 Sun, 11 Jan 2009 18:57:13 UTC Steven Gibbs The Door 37:56 As we transition from the holidays into a new year, it can sometimes seem like we're facing the new year all on our own. In this message, Stonecreek's Director of Adult Ministries, Jason Howard walks through the first chapter of Acts to show where we have all the help we could need in the power of the Holy Spirit. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/living-in-the-power-of-the-spirit http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/jason-howard-010409-s2.mp3 Sun, 04 Jan 2009 13:25:41 UTC Jason Howard The Power Of The Spirit 34:50 In this final Sunday of 2008, Ken Murphy, Stonecreek's lead pastor shares from First Corinthians Chapter 10 on the meaning and practice of communion. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/the-sharing-in-communion http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/12-28-08-communion.mp3 Sun, 28 Dec 2008 18:44:53 UTC Ken Murphy Year-End Communion Service 10:14 In this Christmas Eve message, Stonecreek's Senior Pastor, Steven Gibbs, talks about the hope that comes through our belief in Jesus Christ, God with us. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/hope-through-christ http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/christmas-eve-08.mp3 Wed, 24 Dec 2008 19:11:56 UTC Steven Gibbs Presence 22:48 In this final part of the series, Steven talks about the presence of God in our everyday lives. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/presence--part-three http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/presence-week-3.mp3 Sun, 21 Dec 2008 14:24:56 UTC Steven Gibbs Presence 42:47 In order to have the perfect gift, you need to have a recipient, a giver who perfectly understands the recipient's needs and wants and a gift that fulfills those needs and wants perfectly. In this second part of "presence," Steven talks about how God's gift of Jesus Christ to us meets every aspect of being the perfect gift. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/presence--part-two http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/presence-week-2.mp3 Sun, 14 Dec 2008 12:44:08 UTC Steven Gibbs Presence 33:24 In this first of a three-part series, Steven talks about the presence of Jesus Christ in the world and how His birth changed everything. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/presence--part-one http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/stone-creek-12-06-08.mp3 Sun, 07 Dec 2008 12:45:31 UTC Steven Gibbs Presence 39:13 We all have a name. We answer to our name and it carries with it a sense of who we are. In this message, Stonecreek's worship leader, Mark Brown, discusses the names of God and how they not only show us who He is, His names lived out in Christ and the Holy Spirit bring freedom and power into every believer's life. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/whats-in-a-name http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/mark-brown-113008.mp3 Sun, 30 Nov 2008 17:39:42 UTC Mark Brown What's In A Name 37:01 What impact do you have on the people around you? And, what lasting impact do you want to leave? In this third part of "The Man. The Myth. The Legend." Steven outlines the ways in which men can leave a legacy and truly build up the next generation. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/the-legend http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/tmtmtl-week-3.mp3 Sun, 23 Nov 2008 19:19:12 UTC Steven Gibbs The MAN. The MYTH. The LEGEND. 36:19 During this second part of the three-part series, "The MAN. The MYTH. The Legend," Steven talks about some of the myths men buy into and what God wants men to know as the truth. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/the-myth http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/tmtmtl-week2.mp3 Sun, 16 Nov 2008 17:56:49 UTC Steven Gibbs The MAN. The MYTH. The LEGEND. 48:26 Turn on the T.V. or open a magazine and you will find definitions of a "real man." But are these accurate? In this message, Steven looks to the actions of Adam, Moses and Jesus to show how God would define a "real man." http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/the-man http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/tmtmtl-week-1.mp3 Sun, 09 Nov 2008 20:40:26 UTC Steven Gibbs The MAN. The MYTH. The LEGEND. 38:24 With so much craziness floating in our world, it is no wonder feelings of fear and uncertainty are on everyone's mind. We don't have to be up against a horror movie character for fear to shadow over our lives. Fear come subtly. And, in this Sunday's message, Steven shows Christ's perspective on fear and worry and provides practical steps to stay focused on the hope of Christ in the midst of any uncertainty. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/fear http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/fear.mp3 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 15:56:58 UTC Steven Gibbs Fear 39:16 In this message, Steven goes over each element of the armor God gives us to battle each day. Paul lays out the armor and it is our responsibility to take up the armor, prepare for the battle and fight victoriously. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/armor--put-it-on http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/armor-week-3.mp3 Sun, 26 Oct 2008 13:42:44 UTC Steven Gibbs Armor 43:30 In this message, Steven discusses Jesus' role in the battle, the authority we have in Christ and how believer's in Him have already won the battle. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/armor--jesus-wins http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/armor-week-2.mp3 Sun, 19 Oct 2008 11:55:56 UTC Steven Gibbs Armor 40:58 We all live in a spiritual battle. It is invisible, and we fight against Satan and fallen angels. In this message, Steven maps out how we got into the battle, as well as discuss the reality of Satan and his schemes. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/armor--like-it-or-not http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/armor-week-1.mp3 Sun, 12 Oct 2008 13:18:36 UTC Steven Gibbs Armor 39:33 Our old habits, practices and sins seem like the truest things about us. But, in God's view, His grace through our Savior, Jesus Christ is the truest thing about us and the only thing that can truly nourish our souls. In this final message on grace, Steven will read from and use the story of the Samaritan Woman to bring an understanding of God's grace as the abundant, daily resource we need to survive each day. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/grace--hope-is-never-lost http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/grace-week-5.mp3 Sun, 05 Oct 2008 13:15:42 UTC Steven Gibbs Grace 50:58 What are your best qualities? In what areas or ways would others tell you that you excel? Where do you think God would say you excel? In this message, Steven goes through the lives of two different men, Stephen and Zacchaeus to show how God calls all of us to excel in giving of ourselves to those around us in need. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/grace--its-mine http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/grace-week-4.mp3 Sun, 28 Sep 2008 13:02:32 UTC Steven Gibbs Grace 39:53 God generously lavishes His grace on the up and out, the down and out and everyone in between. And in this third part of the "Grace" series, Ken Murphy shares that while God's grace toward the up and out may look different, and it may seem they are giving up more to follow God, His grace so surpasses our own attempts to achieve that the up and out aren’t giving up anything close to comparison. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/grace--one-thing-you-lack http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/grace-week-3.mp3 Sun, 21 Sep 2008 13:02:55 UTC Ken Murphy Grace 31:37 God offers grace to us individually. And yet, we often worry more about what someone else gets or shouldn't get than the grace we've been given. In this second part of the "Grace" series, Steven talks about how in a world that is more focused on fairness, God freely gives the best He has to offer to everyone who believes in Him, no matter what. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/grace-thats-not-fair http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/grace-part-2.mp3 Sun, 14 Sep 2008 21:05:19 UTC Steven Gibbs Grace 41:07 "For the Son of man came to seek and to seek and to save what was lost." Luke 19:10. Do you feel lost? Do you know someone else who seems lost? In these uncertain financial, political and social times each day feels like a struggle to find our way. But God's plan wasn't for us to wander around without direction. In this first in a five-part message series, "Grace", Steven explains how God's plan was for His Son, Jesus Christ, to give us direction and grace, no matter where we've gone or what we've done. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/grace-caught-looking http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/grace-part-1.mp3 Sun, 07 Sep 2008 21:05:56 UTC Steven Gibbs Grace 41:18 Many of us have heard the expression, "You reap what you sow." This saying is especially true when it comes to conflict and how God wants us to handle our relationship with others. In this final part of this three-part series, Steven uses James' words to show that while we may never avoid conflict, when we sow in peace we can deal with conflict and reap God's peace and pleasure for our life. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/peacemaker http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/tdmmdi-part-3.mp3 Sun, 31 Aug 2008 15:43:51 UTC Steven Gibbs The Devil Made Me Do It 42:25 We all desire clarity when making decisions. But, what God desires for us more than clarity is trust in Him that He will guide us and help us according to His Will. In this message, Steven uses an example from the life of the prophet Elisha to show how God's wisdom for our life begins with our trust in Him. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/open-your-eyes http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/the-devil-made-me-do-it-part-2.mp3 Sun, 24 Aug 2008 15:25:57 UTC Steven Gibbs The Devil Made Me Do It 43:20 We all have those moments when we know what we should do. However, what we end up doing somehow ends up totally different. In this message, Steven explores how to make sure you are living out of God's wisdom and doing what is right in the eyes of the Lord. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/do-right http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/the-devil-made-me-do-it-part-1.mp3 Sun, 17 Aug 2008 12:37:16 UTC Steven Gibbs The Devil Made Me Do It 48:44 You want to know you have a place. Your true work place, relationship place and eternal place. God wants you to know you have a place as well. Through His Son, Jesus Christ, God provided for you a place at His banquet table. In this message, Steven talks about God's plan for you to know your place with Him and to live each day free to share His grace with others searching for their place. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/vacancy--you-have-a-place http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/vacancy-pt-2.mp3 Sun, 10 Aug 2008 16:12:53 UTC Steven Gibbs Vacancy 47:16 You know the difference between great hospitality, mediocre hospitality and no hospitality. In your life, which do you practice towards others? In Romans 12:9-13, Paul lays out what it means to pursue hospitality. In this message, Steven brings practical application to Paul's words and shares examples of what could happen in our world if everyone truly pursued hospitality above all else. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/vacancy--pursue-hospitality http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/vacancy-pt-1.mp3 Sun, 03 Aug 2008 13:03:24 UTC Steven Gibbs Vacancy 40:24 During this message, Kim Hill performs and talks with Ken Murphy about her new book, 'Hope No Matter What, Helping Your Children Heal After Divorce.' Birthed out of Kim's personal story as a single parent and how she cared for the heart of her children through her divorce, this Sunday is meant for single parents as well as any adult or child ever effected by the pain and fear caused by divorce and separation. Kim is a twenty year music veteran. Juggling the responsibilities of recording artist, worship leader and single mother of two very active boys, Hill has found comfort and clarity in worship and encourages others through her music to do the same. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/helping-your-children-heal-after-divorce http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/kim-hill-08.mp3 Sun, 27 Jul 2008 11:56:20 UTC Kim Hill with Ken Murphy Simply Summer '08 28:36 In this message, guest speaker Mike Foster explores the dangers and pitfalls kids face with portable technology and the Internet. Mike is the creator of ThePornTalk.com, a resource designed to help parents talk to their children about pornography. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/kids-technology-and-the-internet http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/mike-foster.mp3 Sun, 20 Jul 2008 01:37:44 UTC Mike Foster Simply Summer '08 30:08 Proverbs 4:23 tells us to "above all else, guard [our] heart, for it is the wellspring of life." In this interview with Dr. Shawn Stoever, Ph.D., lead pastor, Ken Murphy explores why the heart is the most important part of healthy and thriving relationships. For ongoing help with any relationship needs, check out marital and premarital retreats through WinShape Retreat, Stonecreek's Care Resources or e-mail us at care@stonecreekchurch.org. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/achieving-wholehearted-relationships http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/shawn-stoever-2.mp3 Sun, 13 Jul 2008 11:31:01 UTC Ken Murphy with Shawn Stoever Simply Summer '08 42:44 You try to downplay your weaknesses in interviews. You work hard on them with self-help books and programs. So reflecting Christ to others through your weaknesses seems counter intuitive. In this message, however, Steven will walk through Paul’s own weaknesses and struggles to show how God often wants to use your weaknesses or weakest moments for His purposes and glory. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/reflecting-weakness http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/reflection-week-five.mp3 Sun, 29 Jun 2008 14:29:25 UTC Steven Gibbs Reflection 42:56 When the marketers of M&Ms came up with, “They melt in your mouth, not in your hand’ they developed one of the most recognizable product tag lines in modern history. However, anyone who has grabbed a big handful of M&Ms knows, if you hold on to the M&Ms too tightly or for too long, you will end up with a big, melted mess. And so it is with what God entrusts to us. Through this message, Steven talks about God’s eternal grace and our opportunity to pour out His grace on the world around us. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/reflecting-generosity http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/reflection-part-4.mp3 Sun, 22 Jun 2008 17:01:27 UTC Steven Gibbs Reflection 40:57 In some way, shape or form we all desire harmony. In our friendships. Our work relationships. Our family. God desires peace and harmony among His creation. And, in this third part of a four part series on Second Corinthians, Steven lays out God's desire to reconcile our lives to Him through Jesus' death and resurrection, and for us to have peace and harmony with Him forever. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/reflecting-reconciliation http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/reflection-week-three.mp3 Sun, 15 Jun 2008 12:55:39 UTC Steven Gibbs Reflection 33:16 As you go through each day, are you more focused on keeping everyone and everything safely inside the lines or do you go after experiencing everything life has to offer? While living on either extreme is unhealthy, in this message Steven will layout God's desire for you to not only live within the guidelines He's given, but to experience and reflect the freedom in life found only through a belief in and growing relationship with Jesus Christ. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/reflecting-freedom http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/reflection-week-two.mp3 Sun, 08 Jun 2008 13:00:32 UTC Steven Gibbs Reflection 36:51 Second Corinthians is an intensely personal letter. Paul pours out God’s Word from his heart in order to defend his right as an apostle. He reflects not only a ministry filled with pain and affliction, but a ministry made stronger because of pain and affliction in the name of Jesus Christ. In this message, Steven discusses how we too are meant to reflect God's strength in our times of trouble in order to provide comfort to others in our life. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/reflecting-strength http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/reflection-week-1.mp3 Sun, 01 Jun 2008 21:42:15 UTC Steven Gibbs Reflection 40:29 You may not be able to sing on key, but the Lord of the universe wants to hear your songs of praise. In this message, Steven looks into what it means to worship the Lord. Whether it's through music, art or whatever you have to offer, God wants you to offer it to Him with an earnest heart. And in return, He promises you true peace. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/worship--experiencing-god http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/worship-part-2new.mp3 Sun, 25 May 2008 04:21:13 UTC Steven Gibbs Worship 50:07 Every human being was given the deep desire to worship. But worship is more than what we proclaim with our mouths or create with our hands. In this message, Steven uncovers how our delight in a big God and eagerness to wait on Him to show up is key to true worship of the Lord. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/worship--delight-in-the-lord http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/worship-part-1a.mp3 Sun, 18 May 2008 12:23:55 UTC Steven Gibbs Worship 35:22 This interview is geared toward men and helping them better understand the women in their life. Shaunti and her husband, Jeff, have written "For Men Only," a helpful and straightforward guide to understanding the inner lives of women. Through this time with Shaunti and Stonecreek's lead pastor, Ken Murphy, we believe you will receive insight that will offer opportunities for significant breakthroughs in your marriage or dating relationship. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/how-to-understand-women http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/how-to-understand-women.mp3 Sun, 11 May 2008 13:01:39 UTC Ken Murphy with Shaunti Feldhahn Mother's Day at Stonecreek 41:19 How beautiful are feet? Your feet? The feet of the person sitting or standing next to you? What would life be like if you didn’t have your feet? You probably don’t think about feet much, but our feet play a crucial role for us each and every day. They provide our foundation when we stand. They get us to where we need to go and can take us to places familiar and never before seen. And upon our feet, we can go and make a difference in the hearts and lives of the oppressed as well as the physically and spiritually malnourished. How beautiful are the feet. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/compassion-sunday http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/compassion-sunday.mp3 Sun, 04 May 2008 15:49:01 UTC Steven Gibbs Compassion Sunday 2008 43:50 http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/image-of-sex http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/silhouette--image-of-sex.mp3 Sun, 27 Apr 2008 20:38:22 UTC Steven Gibbs Silhouette 41:56 When Paul wrote to the church at Ephesus, he completely changed the image of marriage. Marriage had often been seen as a contract or a business arrangement. However, as Steven lays out in this message, Paul's words to husbands and wives take marriage to a deeper covenant built on the foundation of Christ and filled with love and respect. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/image-of-marriage http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/silhouette-image-of-marriage.mp3 Sun, 20 Apr 2008 18:21:16 UTC Steven Gibbs Silhouette 37:40 Conflict is an innevitable part of every relationship. The circumstances and how we handle the conflict isn't so certain. In this message, Steven focuses on one principle, mercy triumphs over judgement in order to help you bring compassion, patience and forgiveness to any situation. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/image-of-conflict http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/silhouette-part-3.mp3 Sun, 13 Apr 2008 12:24:09 UTC Steven Gibbs Silhouette 40:23 For any relationship to work long-term, there needs to be effective communication. And for a man and a woman to communicate effectively, we need to understand the methods and differences in the way we communicate. In this message, Ken Murphy, lead pastor at Stonecreek will use three key components to effective communication; speaking in love, displaying affection and really listening to show how great relationships start with good communication. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/image-of-communication http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/silhouette-image-of-communication.mp3 Sun, 06 Apr 2008 19:19:46 UTC Ken Murphy Silhouette 43:26 In order to move past the image of a relationship to a solid, Godly romance, we need to have certain Godly characteristics, levels of trust and Godly standards in place in our life as well as in the life of our spouse/boyfriend/girlfriend. Chances are you’ve seen how TV, movies and magazines would define romance. In this message, Steven Gibbs will help you see what God has to say about romance. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/image-of-romance http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/silhouette-part-1.mp3 Sun, 30 Mar 2008 19:21:54 UTC Steven Gibbs Silhouette 37:40 http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/the-work-of-christ http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/easter-08.mp3 Sun, 23 Mar 2008 19:55:21 UTC Steven Gibbs Work Beyond 9 to 5 33:58 Most everyone knows what it means and looks like to worship God on Sunday. But, what does it mean to worship God outside of church and through your work? In this message, Ken Murphy, lead pastor at Stonecreek Church looks at what it means to live with Christ in our daily life and to look at everything with Him as great gain in our life. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/christ-as-gain http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/work--16th.mp3 Sun, 16 Mar 2008 18:08:16 UTC Ken Murphy Work Beyond 9 to 5 37:53 http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/a-day-off http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/workpart2.mp3 Sun, 09 Mar 2008 18:19:20 UTC Steven Gibbs Work Beyond 9 to 5 38:50 From the beginning we were created to work. But often our heart just isn't in what we do. We feel tired, stressed out and not sure what we're really supposed to do in the first place. Is this all there is? In this first of a four-part series, Steven shows us how our work should be seen as a gift from God and how we can partner with Him to make the most of every day. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/i-hate-my-job http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/workpart-1a.mp3 Sun, 02 Mar 2008 19:26:12 UTC Steven Gibbs Work Beyond 9 to 5 39:34 What does it mean to be generous? And, in today's uncertain financial climate, can there be a point of being too generous? In this message, Hal White from Crown Financial Ministries talks about what God wants to do in your life when you have a financial plan that includes trusting Him and sowing what He has entrusted to you. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/giving-generously http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/giving-generously.mp3 Sun, 24 Feb 2008 14:39:10 UTC Hal White There's Something About Benjamin 30:49 At some point in your life you will be faced with the question, "What do you have?"

Or, we forget what life was really like with our junk and we try and turn back. In this message, Steven wraps up Dump Your Junk with the truth that God wants you to follow Him and He'll fight for you wherever you are so that you can live with true freedom. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/turn-around http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/dyj-part-3.mp3 Sun, 03 Feb 2008 18:34:39 UTC Steven Gibbs Dump Your Junk 29:40 Has there been a time in your life when you have gotten rid of a bad habit, or made a life change only to have something worse replace it? How can we keep new junk from replacing our old junk? In this message, Steven helps us see what God truly wants for our life - lasting transformation from our old self to a new person in Christ. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/re-design http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/dyj-part-2.mp3 Sun, 27 Jan 2008 21:29:37 UTC Steven Gibbs Dump Your Junk 33:06 We all have junk in our life. Past hurts, bad habits and personal hang-ups pile up like waste and hold us back from truly living. In this first of a four-part series, Steven helps us identify where we might have junk and what God wants us to do about it. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/where-do-i-start http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/dyj-part-1.mp3 Sun, 13 Jan 2008 18:51:44 UTC Steven Gibbs Dump Your Junk 40:49 From the very beginning of creation, God desired for us to have through His church close relationships. He knew it was not good for us to feel alone, caught in a gap between general acquaintances and authentic community. This message lays out the type of community God has in mind for us and ways the local church can help bring community about for the individual. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/whos-your-group http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/whose-your-group.mp3 Sun, 06 Jan 2008 20:48:11 UTC Jason Howard Who's Your Group? 32:55 http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/light--turning-on-the-light http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/light--part-3.mp3 Sun, 16 Dec 2007 17:25:47 UTC Steven Gibbs Light 33:26 http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/light--finding-the-light http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/light--part-2.mp3 Sun, 09 Dec 2007 17:25:20 UTC Steven Gibbs Light 34:00 http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/light--the-frustration-of-darkness http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/light--part-1.mp3 Sun, 02 Dec 2007 17:24:47 UTC Steven Gibbs Light 38:41 In this message, Steven closes out the message series, Whole Family with a look at the roles for both parents and children in the family. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/whole-family-part-4 http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/whole-family-part-4.mp3 Sun, 25 Nov 2007 11:16:01 UTC Steven Gibbs Whole Family 36:03 In Whole Family Part 3, Steven addresses the effects of divorce on all parts of the family. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/whole-family-part-3 http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/whole-family-part-3.mp3 Sun, 18 Nov 2007 15:53:16 UTC Steven Gibbs Whole Family 38:54 Many times in our family we witness how one word or decision can set off a chain reaction that results in years of hurt and animosity. Many times the results are unintended. But whatever the situation, how we react will either further or stop the dominoe effect. In this message, Steven uses the story of Joseph to highlight the importance of understanding our place in our family and grabbing control over the dominoe God has called us to manage. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/whole-family-part-2 http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/whole-family-part-2.mp3 Sun, 11 Nov 2007 21:08:29 UTC Steven Gibbs Whole Family 36:31 In this first message, Steven begins Whole Family focused on getting the family back to the dinner table. We are a product of our family history. What happens in our home and around the dinner table growing up dictate more than anything else how we'll handle situations throughout life. How might your current situations be different if you included time connecting with God and with your loved ones each week? http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/whole-family-part-1 http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/whole-family-part-1.mp3 Sun, 04 Nov 2007 17:07:01 UTC Steven Gibbs Whole Family 36:47 We would all like to do more and have more in life. Many times, however, we settle for small incremental steps rather than explosive impact. In this message, Steven examines how what we think about our finances may be the one thing holding us back from multiplying our life and our influence. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/multiply-held-back-by-money http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/multiply-part-2.mp3 Sun, 28 Oct 2007 21:18:34 UTC Steven Gibbs Multiply 36:40 We would all like to do more and have more in life. Many times, however, we settle for small incremental steps rather than explosive impact. In this message, Steven uses the simple act of Christ washing His disciples feet to illustrate how our attitude and service for others can multiply our influence in everyday life. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/multiply-your-influence http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/multiply-part-1.mp3 Sun, 21 Oct 2007 19:19:49 UTC Steven Gibbs Multiply 33:33 Good people come in all shapes, sizes and religions. So, of all the world's religions, why should you choose Christianity? Do all good and sincere people go to heaven? In this message, Steven helps uncover the surprisingly real and convicting answers. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/why-jesus http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/why-jesus.mp3 Sun, 14 Oct 2007 00:49:35 UTC Steven Gibbs WHY> 29:59 What would you do if it were just you and Jesus sitting across from one another? What would you say? What would you feel? While this might seem like an unrealistic question, in this message Ken Murphy, Stonecreek's lead pastor explains how each day Christ is right there with us. Some of us choose to turn away. Some of us choose to have light conversation. Others choose to lay it all out there for Him. Which would you choose?

Where could God possibly be in all of the mess? In this message, Steven helps the listener discover God's role in our world today and how we should view God in times of turmoil and despair. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/why-is-the-world-so-messed-up http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/why-is-the-world-so-messed-up.mp3 Sun, 30 Sep 2007 13:38:53 UTC Steven Gibbs WHY> 30:52 What is the Bible? A collection of ancient stories without much basis of truth? Is it akin to mythology? In this message, Steven discusses why we should see the Bible as both a living, historical record of events and our one connection to our Heavenly Father. The Bible provides as much instruction and direction for our lives today as it did when first compiled centuries ago, but only if you read it. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/why-should-i-trust-the-bible http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/why-should-i-trust-the-bible.mp3 Sun, 23 Sep 2007 13:36:21 UTC Steven Gibbs WHY> 38:34 God is fine for weak and needy people, right? What about self-made, independent individuals? Whoever you are, if you're not sure why you should believe in God then take the time to listen to this message as Steven lays out the evidence of why the God of the Bible is relevant and necessary for all. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/why-should-i-believe-in-god-in-the-first-place http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/why-should-i-believe-in-god-in-the-first-place.mp3 Sun, 16 Sep 2007 13:31:53 UTC Steven Gibbs WHY> 40:27 Why am I here? This is one of life's most often asked questions and one not many people ever really answer. In this message, Steven pursues what God wants each of us to understand about our purpose here and why He designed us for this time and place. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/why-am-i-here http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/why-am-i-here.mp3 Sun, 09 Sep 2007 13:04:43 UTC Steven Gibbs WHY> 37:35 In this message, Steven talks about God's view on the importance of how we handle life's smallest choices. God cares about the small choices and desires for us to see how their cumulative impact over time with can truly make a big a deal. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/small-choices http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/small-choices.mp3 Sun, 02 Sep 2007 13:51:53 UTC Steven Gibbs CHOICES 27:07 Each day we receive counsel from others with regards to our choices. Some wise. And a lot not so wise. In this message, Steven explores why God desires for us to seek wise counsel and what we should be looking for when making our choice. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/mix-it-up http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/mix-it-up.mp3 Sun, 26 Aug 2007 16:27:45 UTC Steven Gibbs CHOICES 37:13 What types of choices do you make? Your choices or God's choices? In this message, Steven uses Jesus' desert experience and the devil's temptations to show how God desires for us to go about making choices and how good choices are God's choices. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/its-over-here http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/its-over-here.mp3 Sun, 19 Aug 2007 18:12:50 UTC Steven Gibbs CHOICES 35:05 We all make choices every day of our lives. Some good. Some not so good. In this message, Steven looks at Peter's denial of Christ and how, like Peter, God's grace allows us to recover from poor choices in our life. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/three-lefts-make-a-right http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/three-lefts-make-a-right.mp3 Sun, 12 Aug 2007 00:05:30 UTC Steven Gibbs CHOICES 39:20 The early church had a unique feature. It wasn't their great marketing strategy or their charismatic leader. It wasn't the location of the temple or the growth of their community. The unique feature that the early church possessed was moving along in a common direction with a common focus. Because of this unique feature, many people committed to join in following Christ. In this message, you'll hear as Steven Gibbs talks to Stonecreek's committment to a common direction and a common focus on reaching the local communities and having a global impact. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/argentina http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/argentina.mp3 Sun, 05 Aug 2007 19:45:09 UTC Steven Gibbs One Church 43:04 In this message, Ken Murphy takes on the challenge of how we can live out our faith each day with courage and strength. Christ did not call us to only be Christians on Sunday at church or to outsource our faith. His church was every day, every where and Ken shares how we can fulfill Christ's purpose for our life. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/outsourcing-your-faith http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/outsourcing-your-faith-ken-murphy.mp3 Sun, 29 Jul 2007 01:16:56 UTC Ken Murphy Simply Summer 46:38 The goal is simple. We want you to talk to your kids about porn. We want you to be filled with courage and good information for talking through this important issue with your children. In this candid conversation, Ken Murphy interviews Mike Foster, founder of ThePornTalk.com, an initiative designed to teach parents how to talk to their children about the dangers of porn. As you listen, you'll be shaken up and challenged beyond your comfort zones. We’re keeping it real and honest. This is about you, your kids and preserving their purity. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/theporntalkcom http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/theporntalkcom-ken-murphy-with-mike-foster.mp3 Sun, 22 Jul 2007 13:24:59 UTC Ken Murphy With Mike Foster Simply Summer 48:59 The best selling book, "The Secret", tells us that we are the creators of our universe. Whatever we believe, we achieve. We attract what we think. This all sounds great, but is it true? Is "The Secret" what the Bible teaches, or is it a new twist on an old philosophy? In today's message, Steven explores what the Bible has to say about the validity of "The Secret." http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/steven-gibbs-the-secret http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/the-secret.mp3 Sun, 08 Jul 2007 13:36:18 UTC Steven Gibbs Simply Summer 39:28 This week's message comes from Dr. Charles Lowery, president and CEO of Lowery Institute for Excellence, Inc., a non-profit educational organization that exists to encourage, inspire, and motivate men and women through teaching the essential principles of success in relationships, the workplace and life.

Are you ashamed of how you look? Are you struggling with how you treat your body? In this message, Steven reminds us that each God fearfully and wonderfully made us. God looks at our bodies like the brilliant and amazing early temple and even lives in everyone who has accepted Christ into his or her life through the Holy Spirit. To the only one who matters, you have a "beach body." How will you show it and Him to others this week? http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/beach-bodies-part-1 http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/beach-bodies-part-1.mp3 Sun, 20 May 2007 18:12:32 UTC Steven Gibbs Beach Bodies 34:16 For some, Mother's Day is a time of celebration. For others, this day can be a struggle. But wherever you are, God's love remains consistent and a source of strength as you care for your children and family. In this special message, Steven Gibbs, senior pastor honors mothers and the wonderful part they play in God's plan. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/mothers-day-at-stonecreek http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/mothers-day-2007.mp3 Sun, 13 May 2007 18:26:57 UTC Steven Gibbs Mother's Day 23:34 We all have that closet, the one we put all of our junk in and hope no one ever opens the door. For some of us, we also have a closet in our life where we hide personal addictions. These are addictions or sins we run toward in order to run away from everything else. In this message on addictions in suburbia, Steven uses Paul's words to remind us that in God's eyes, our sins are not the truest thing about us. We have the power through Jesus Christ to face and overcome our addictions. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/addicted-in-suburbia http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/life-in-suburbia--addicted-in-suburbia.mp3 Sun, 06 May 2007 15:42:22 UTC Steven Gibbs Life in Suburbia 36:12 "Time to come home."

Or, do you look at those around you and think 'what do they want from me?' We each can make an amazing impact in the lives of others. In this message, Stonecreek partners with Compassion International to provide a glimpse of how a little time and money can significantly change the course of someone's life. You'll hear one Compassion child's story and listen in as he meets his sponsor family for the first time ever. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/neighborly-in-suburbia http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/life-in-suburbia--neighborly-in-suburbia.mp3 Sun, 22 Apr 2007 01:30:01 UTC Ken Murphy & George Jowi Life in Suburbia 39:34 [insert content here] http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/depressed-in-suburbia http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/life-in-suburbia--depressed-in-suburbia.mp3 Sun, 15 Apr 2007 16:41:17 UTC Steven Gibbs Life in Suburbia 36:48 What defines success in suburbia? Big house? Lots of money? If you had everything you thought would bring success, would you be successful? God really wants you to be successful in life and in this first of a five-part series, Steven Gibbs, senior pastor uses the example of Hezekiah to show how focus on God and holding fast to His Word will bring you greater success than you could ever imagine. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/successful-in-suburbia http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/life-in-suburbia--success.mp3 Sun, 08 Apr 2007 16:39:40 UTC Steven Gibbs Life in Suburbia 31:04 Just like Forrest Gump, your story is worth sharing to anyone and everyone. And when you get involved, keep a clear focus on God and know He is there right beside you, you never know the full impact your story will have on the lives of others.

Maybe this is something you are going through now. Ken Murphy, executive pastor pulls from the recent movie, 'Facing The Giants' to help us see God is right in the middle of all our trials and struggles. He is bringing you through this time for a reason and will surely bring goodness and love to your experience. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/facing-the-giants http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/stonecreek-at-the-movies--facing-the-giants.mp3 Sun, 25 Mar 2007 19:08:42 UTC Ken Murphy Stonecreek At The Movies 43:38 Hearing is not the same as listening. As we see from the academy award winning movie, 'Ray' and what James tells us in James 1:19-22, we need to focus harder on being quick to listen and slow to speak. The listener is the one who drives the communication process. And it is how we listen to others and our investment in learning how God would have us help them that makes a difference. http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/listen-up http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/stonecreek-at-the-movies--listen-up.mp3 Sun, 18 Mar 2007 20:00:05 UTC Steven Gibbs Stonecreek At The Movies 32:23 We all have ways we filter information and make decisions.

And, as we raise our game, we naturally get opportunities to connect with others and show them they are God's priority and that He wants to give us everything in the heavens and earth. But we must be faithful and bountiful givers. God compels us, or holds us together with His grace and urges us to do for others every day. What's keeping you from giving back? http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/give-back http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/raise-your-game--give-back.mp3 Sun, 25 Feb 2007 09:48:42 UTC Steven Gibbs Raise Your Game 36:26 http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/sermon/full-throttle http://www.stonecreekchurch.org/media/raise-your-game--full-throttle.mp3 Sun, 18 Feb 2007 12:10:37 UTC Steven Gibbs Raise Your Game 42:16 This week, Steven begins a new series around God's call for us to raise our game in our careers, our relationships, our finances and our everyday lives.

Women. Sex. 45:42 It's fair to say some serious gender confusion has set in over the last several decades. Many men don't understand what it truly means to be a man.
