Lake Point Church Sermons

When we begin to build our future by rising from the ruins, we will have almost immediate opposition in the form of worries and fears. These fears are presented in our minds as questions. What do we do with these questions of fear? We answer them, just like in the story of Nehemiah.

In order to build for the future, Nehemiah had to encourage others to rise from the ruins. We all have times in our lives when the choices made caused ruins. Those ruins should not define us, much like the ruined walls around Jerusalem did not define the rich heritage and identity of that great city. We hope this inspirational message will encourage you to rise from the ruins as you build your future.

In this final message of the Esther series, Pastor Frank Bennett shares the amazing ways God works on our behalf through His providence. In the eleventh hour God comes through just when we need Him. Esther makes her final bold move by naming evil in front of the King. Our takeaway is that we also need to name the evil or sin in front of the King of Kings. Evil has a name. Expose it for what it is and allow God to do His amazing work.

Do you know you have a finest hour? In fact, you may have several in your lifetime. Our finest hours happen when we come out of some adversity or surface from making a very difficult decision. We reveal our true selves when we walk through the hurtful words and actions of someone intimidating us. Esther shows us how to approach a difficult situation or person with calmness, control, and confidence.

In this second sermon of the Esther series, we learn the power that one person can make. But life is not always fair. And when life is unfair, we need to stay true to our Biblical convictions. In the middle of our confusion and fear, we can rest assured that God has us at this place for such a time as this.

Are you wondering what good can come from all that you have to live with? The kids you can’t handle. The marriage that lacks harmony? Whether you see it or not, God is at work in your life this very moment. God specialized in turning the mundane into the meaningful. God not only moves in unusual ways, He also moves in uneventful days. While you’re going through life and trying to make sure you fix all the little pieces of your life, understand this: that there is over and in, above and below your life a divine architect ordering every detail. In this first message of the Esther series, Pastor Frank Bennett shares insight on how we can live our lives knowing that God is in control.

In this final message in our Daniel Series, Pastor Frank Bennett shares how Daniel's faith was strong even under the fears of change, conflict, and consequences. Just like Daniel, we should not allow these fears to affect our faith.

In this week's message in the Daniel Series, Pastor Frank Bennett reminds us how we should not bow down to idols in our lives. Idols do exist, whether we recognize them or not. And we are tempted to worship things in our culture that conflicts with God's Word. Daniel's friends give us a formula for resisting the temptation to bow down.

In this second week of our Daniel Series, Pastor Frank Bennett shares the difference between being distracted by your turmoil compared to properly interpreting the turmoil when it comes your way. God has a reason for all things. Interpreting our turmoil helps set us apart from our culture.

It's easy to compromise our values. But how do we live with conviction in a world of compromise? Daniel's story is filled with practical ways to live with conviction. In this first message, Pastor Frank Bennett shares "The Resolve of Purity" and how Daniel practiced this discipline.

Raising home run kids involves teaching them to live in community with one another by loving others like they would want to be loved. Pastor Frank Bennett shares some thoughts on how to love others by having respect, showing compassion, and making friends.

What rules your life? What rules your kids? If we’re ruled by discipline without emotion, we’re inhuman. If we’re ruled by emotion without discipline, we’re immature. Ruling by self-control equals emotional maturity. Learn to rise above the rule of sin, selfishness, and immaturity.

To win home plate, kids need a connection with God. It takes intentional time, intentional talk, and intentional truth. What do you want for your kids? What are you doing well? What needs intentional change? Pastor Frank Bennett answers these questions with Biblical principles and practical application.

Are you tired of living in your own grave of sin, shame, and bad choices? You need to remove the stone of pride and self-assurance from in front of your grave. You need to come out of that grave as Jesus is calling your name. And you need to throw away those grave clothes.

In this sermon, Pastor Frank Bennett shares how Jesus serves us grace through the story of Jesus washing the feet of His disciples. We learn that grace is often unexpected, unassuming, and unpretentious.

Did you know that God sings over you? There's a place in scripture where God reminds us that He sings over us, even when we feel the consequences of our sin. This is a great picture of grace.

When God steps in, he takes your place. When you feel attacked, it's not you they're after. It's all on Jesus. Just move out of the way. He can take it. And He proved that by taking it on the cross for our sin. You and I should have died on that cross. But Jesus stepped in and took our place with a full act of grace.

Do we truly understand what "Grace" is? Do we comprehend its meaning? We sing about it. We talk about it. We even call our prayers at the dinner table "Grace". Pastor Frank Benner believes God wants us to walk down the road of Grace that leads to the cross as we prepare our hearts for Easter.

As we enter into our final week of the "Make Church Great Again" series, we learn about applying all we have learned the past four weeks.
