The Journey: Darrin Patrick Audio

Jesus and | Jesus and Afterlife

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sun, 22 Jan 2012 05:15 CST

Hebrews 11 is all about faith. Throughout the chapter we see example after example of influential Old Testament icons acting in faith: men and women who were certain of what they hoped for and proved it by their actions. "Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen" [Hebrews 11:1]. Yet, later in the chapter we learn that even these founders of our faith didn't inherit what was promised during their earthly lives. The chapter concludes with text showing that their hope was in something greater: "But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared for them a city" [Hebrews 11:16]. In 1 Peter 1:8, Peter describes the "salvation of our souls" as the "outcome of our faith". Salvation, therefore, is the end product, the result of believing in Jesus, and the reward is eternity spent with him. "Though you have not seen him, you love him. Though you do not now see him, you believe in him and rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory, obtaining the outcome of your faith, the salvation of your souls." [1 Peter 1:8]. Peter later urges that we set our hope "fully on the grace that will be brought to [us] at the revelation of Jesus Christ" [1:13], throwing off our sinful nature out of reverence toward God. The Apostle Paul describes it this way: "For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. If I am to live in the flesh, that means fruitful labor for me. Yet which I shall choose I cannot tell. I am hard pressed between the two. My desire is to depart and be with Christ, for that is far better..." [Philippians 1:21-23.] "To be with Christ". This is the afterlife we yearn for. Pastor Darrin Patrick continues the "Jesus and" sermon series with Jesus and Afterlife.

Jesus and | Jesus and Politics

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sun, 15 Jan 2012 05:15 CST

Pastor Darrin Patrick continues the "Jesus and" series from the Gospel of Mark: Jesus and Politics. In the information overload of American politics, Jesus' simple command to love one another is often absent. Amidst the incessant slandering, belittling, and grandiosity that invades our culture during the political season it's easy to numb ourselves, turn away from God's word, and join in with the pervading voices around us. As believers we must remember that our calling is heavenly and our hope isn't in the rulers of this world. "For here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city that is to come." [Hebrews 13:14]. Instead of engaging in the hype this political season, let's set our hearts on Jesus, praying continually for our leaders, for our country, and for God's will to be done, all-the-while recalling that we inherit a kingdom that cannot be shaken [Hebrews 12:28]. No matter the degree of incensed passion around us and no matter how involved we may become politically, God's will for how we're to conduct ourselves is clear: We must walk in love.

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 06 Nov 2010 14:00 CDT

Forgiveness is hard because it is costly. And the closer the offender, the harder it is to forgive (flesh this out a little more). In this sermon we will see that forgiveness between a child and his or her parents actually begins by acknowledging the difficult sacrifice God made to forgive sinners.

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 25 Sep 2010 14:00 CDT

Dangerous Words | Contending for Truth

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 21 Aug 2010 14:00 CDT

Sound doctrine, loving hearts, and an obedience to the purposes of Christ are the marks of a true Christian. If you don't have these things, you probably don't know Jesus...yet!

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 14 Aug 2010 14:00 CDT

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 07 Aug 2010 14:00 CDT

Dangerous Words | Contentment

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 26 Jun 2010 14:00 CDT

The letter to the Philippians is one of Paul's most encouraging messages to any New Testament church. This is made more amazing considering the fact that Paul wrote Philippians while in prison. In this sermon we will learn from Paul the "secret" of contentment - that Christ is sufficient to meet all our needs.

Dangerous Words | Ephesians - A Christian in the Church

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 19 Jun 2010 14:00 CDT

Paul's letter to the church in Ephesus explores the heart of what it means to be Christian in the church. Paul defines what a Christian is, defines what a church is, and then articulates how Christians should relate in a church. In this sermon we find that the gospel infilitrates even our challenging, messy church relationships. Sins like gossip, anger, and conflict can be drowned with loving encouragement, grace, and forgiveness.

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 12 Jun 2010 14:00 CDT

Dangerous Words | The Church at Corinth: A Clear Gospel for Broken People

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 05 Jun 2010 14:00 CDT

Paul wrote 1st and 2nd Corinthians to a church much like The Journey in a city much like St. Louis.

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 22 May 2010 14:00 CDT

Dangerous Words | Introduction to the New Testament

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 08 May 2010 14:00 CDT

The New Testament continues the story of God, who is rescuing his people, and who will demonstrate his ultimate power over Satan, sin and death. In this sermon we will see that all 27 books of the New Testament center on person and work of Christ in and through the church.

What's Killing Me | Envy

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 01 May 2010 14:00 CDT

Envy is when we want other people's stuff or even other people's life because we think it will bring more peace, joy and comfort than we are experiencing with our own stuff and our own life. In this sermon we will see that the true source of peace, joy and comfort is not found in stuff or even your own life, but in the future God provides because of what Christ has done.

What's Killing Me | Anger

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 24 Apr 2010 14:00 CDT

We get angry when our stated or unstated goals are blocked. When we don't win, have influence, or feel like we're making progress, anger rears its ugly head. In this sermon we will see how forgiveness is the true source of power, and how in Christ we receive and extend it.

What's Killing Me | Fear

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 17 Apr 2010 14:00 CDT

Fear is the opposite of love. We fear because sin separated us from God's acceptance in the garden. In this sermon we will explore the reality that we are afraid that we will never be able to get God's acceptance back...because we can't. But Jesus did.

What's Killing Me | Worry

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 10 Apr 2010 14:00 CDT

Worry is the default mode of the human heart because we don't believe that God is in control. We worry because we try to secure the future. In this sermon we will learn to turn our worry into prayer, to renew our minds with the truth that God is in control.

Holy Week (2010) | The Power of The Resurrection

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 03 Apr 2010 14:00 CDT

Christ is Risen! Because of Jesus' victory over sin and death, we no longer have to try to impress God with our accomplishments. Surrendering our self-righteousness and trusting Christ's righteousness is what it means to embrace the gospel.

Holy Week (2010) | Telling the Story

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 27 Mar 2010 14:00 CDT

The job of the Christian is not to save people. Christians are ambassadors, messengers of King Jesus, bringing to others the good news he brought to us. In this sermon we will hear how being a new creation in Christ means you...yes, you...are an ambassador for Jesus.

Foundations | Redemption

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 13 Mar 2010 12:00 CST

The climax of God's story is the redemption of God's people. Knowing his people would continue to rebel against him God intervened in human history in the person of Jesus. In this sermon we will examine the perfect life and atoning death of the Son of God.

Foundations | Creation

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 27 Feb 2010 12:00 CST

The first chapter in the story of God shows God as the Creator of all that we see and all that we don't see. God also created human beings and loved them perfectly. In this sermon we will study the Creator and the relationship he has with his creation.

Foundations | Revelation

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 20 Feb 2010 12:00 CST

The Bible is not a book about rules to follow or things we need to do. The Bible is the story of God and what he has done on our behalf. In this sermon we begin our Foundations series by looking at the source of the story of God.

Training Camp | The Result

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 12:00 CST

The result of a life of worship is a life of service. In this sermon we will see how spiritual disciplines deepen our worship of God, which fuels us for service in the church and beyond.

Training Camp | Basic Training

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 12:00 CST

Some Christians pray as if God is a cosmic genie, granting wishes and doing the bidding of those who pray the most or the best. Others treat prayer like a fire alarm—PULL IN CASE OF EMERGENCY. In this sermon we will see that the Bible shows us a variety of ways not only to think about prayer but to actually pray.

Training Camp | Where You Train

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 30 Jan 2010 12:00 CST

Jesus began his ministry with forty days of solitude. Before he ever performed a miracle or preached a sermon, he got away from people so he could get time with God. Jesus was a fan of solitude. In this sermon we will see why we should be fans too.

Training Camp | Why Train?

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 16 Jan 2010 12:00 CST

Discipline isn't sexy. It's not easy. It's early mornings. It's sacrifice. This is why most of us avoid discipline. In this sermon we will see that the key for a fuller experience of God may just be found in the disciplines we've been avoiding.

Engage | Engaging People

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 09 Jan 2010 12:00 CST

The two great commandments are loving God and loving people. In this sermon we will get practical about why we fail to love people well, who we tend to avoid, and how the Bible instructs us about loving people in a way that honors God.

Engage | Engaging God

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 02 Jan 2010 12:00 CST

The new year has come and with it comes the Year of Engagement at The Journey. In this sermon we will hear from Pastor Darrin about what it looks like for the church to engage with God through the process of spirit-led life renewal.

Solid | Repenting of Idolatry

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 19 Dec 2009 18:00 CST

As in our day, John’s contemporaries lived in a world permeated by idolatry. It is no surprise that John ends his letter warning against it. In this final sermon in 1 John, we will see how identifying and repenting of idols is key to worshiping the one true God.

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 12 Dec 2009 18:00 CST

Solid | Discerning False Teaching

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 18:00 CST

John reminds us that any teaching that lessens Christ’s unique and ultimate power over sin, death, and Satan is a lie. In this sermon we will also see that any teaching that begins and ends with the crucified, resurrected, and returning Lord is one to stake your life on.

Solid | Defeating Doubt

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 14 Nov 2009 18:00 CST

John reminds us that we live in a dark world that opposes God at every turn. In this sermon we look at how the cross leads us to absolute confidence that our deepest needs and concerns are known by God and that our salvation is secure in his goodness.

Solid | Loving with Creeds and Deeds

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 18:00 CST

The life of the believer is marked by love for others. In this sermon we will see that it is not enough to simply speak love, or to theorize about love, but that true love is borne out in action as well.

Solid | Practicing What You Preach

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 19:00 CDT

Just as a child receives the nature of their parent, so does the believer receive the nature of his or her Parent in the form of the Holy Spirit. In this sermon we will see how it is the Spirit, not the best efforts of the believer, that ultimately helps us practice what we preach.

Solid | Hating the World

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 19:00 CDT

John shocks his audience into reality by telling them not to love the world, which is a slightly more positive way of saying to hate the world. In this sermon we will explore John's warning to resist the lure of attractive lies of a dark world that attempts to deceive followers of Christ.

Solid | Growing Up In God

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 17 Oct 2009 19:00 CDT

Solid | Loving the Unlovable

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 10 Oct 2009 19:00 CDT

Knowing that you are beloved, despite your un-loveliness, is a key to understanding the gospel. In this sermon we will see how it is also a key to loving your brothers and sisters in Christ despite their un-loveliness.

Solid | Obeying from Acceptance

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 03 Oct 2009 19:00 CDT

John reminds us that knowing God and living in relationship with him is only possible through obedience to his truth. In this sermon we will examine the biblical reality that why you obey is as important as how you obey.

Solid | Walking In The Light

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 26 Sep 2009 19:00 CDT

Having true fellowship with God and people only happens when Christians walk in God's light. In this sermon we will examine all that it means to walk in the light of God.

Solid | Experiencing God

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 19 Sep 2009 19:00 CDT

As an eyewitness to Jesus' ministry, miracles, crucifixion, and resurrection, John knew first-hand the power and mercy of Jesus. In this sermon we will see how John reminds the church that we too can experience this power and mercy.

Solid | John the Apostle

info@journeyon.net (Darrin Patrick) — Sat, 12 Sep 2009 19:00 CDT
