Noblesville First Sermons

In this sermon, we will meet a man named Jabez, who prays that kind of prayer. And we’ll be reminded that God hears all of our prayers. Even the ones that aren’t proofread or polished. The ones prayed through tears, fear, frustration, and trembling faith. Because thanks be to God, perfection has never been a requirement for prayer. Just a willingness to open our hearts before God. Lord, hear our prayers. Hear us when our words are...

A Prayer for Pentecost

Spirit of the Living God, we’ve carried much too long,  Holding burdens in trembling hands though we were made for song. We’ve worn exhaustion like armor, built walls around what’s inside, Yet deep within these weary souls, Your Spirit longs to rise.

Give us the courage to surrender, to open clenched hands wide, To trust Your Spirit’s leading more than all the ways we hi...

Prayer plays an important role in our lives, and it applies to everyone. Because the truth is, we all need it. Think about what you and those around you have gone through: trauma, illness, disappointment, addiction, betrayal, fear, grief—we can fill in the blank with whatever life has thrown our way. Prayer is our lifeline. It equips us to persevere through our deepest sorrows and to receive our greatest joys.   For Mother's Day, ...

Scripture tells us that all creation praises the Lord. Worship isn't confined to a building or a schedule. It is happening all around us. The zebras, the birds, the wind—they all participate in a kind of worship that is natural, constant, and unforced. And so are we invited to join. As we come to the close of our All Creatures Great and Small series, we reflect on this beautiful truth: worship is bigger than us. It is a chorus that...

Water is necessary for life on Earth, so it’s no surprise Scripture is filled with momentous encounters and sacred imagery centered around it. Wells become places of unexpected meeting, rivers become places of cleansing, and “living water” becomes a promise of renewal. Isaiah speaks of God pouring water on thirsty land and pouring the Spirit upon the people reminding us that creation itself is a vessel of God’s grace. The movement ...

When Easter arrives, our response can only be one thing: Thankfulness. Thankfulness is the natural overflow of a heart that remembers. We remember a Savior who loves us in spite of us. A God who didn’t turn away from our brokenness, but stepped into it. A King who chose a cross. A Redeemer who laid down His life so we could experience abundant, eternal life. This is why the message never grows old. It echoes across generations, ac...

In our faith, sometimes Jesus slows us down or corrects us so we can see more clearly. His accountability is love in action—shaping us into stronger disciples and better teammates. As we move towards Palm Sunday and Holy Week, we invite you to consider: How is God calling you to accountability right now? What do you need to see more clearly so you can get back in the game of faith? Explore this theme of Accountability as our guest...

that celebrates being seen, Jesus calls us to serve. In a culture that rewards standing out, Jesus calls us to lift others up. Servanthood is about choosing to show up, to support, to give, and to care, even when no one is keeping score. As a church, that is who we are called to be. Each of us has something to offer. Each of us has a role to play. And when we live that way, something powerful happens, not just in worship, but in t...

Scripture reminds us of this truth in Psalm 133:1: “How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity!”

Unity is where strength grows. Unity is where teams thrive. And unity is where God’s presence moves in powerful ways.

In the church, we may not all wear the same jersey, serve in the same role, or stand in the same place—but we are still on the same team. We are called to build each other up, carry one another,...

When we're passionate about Jesus, it begins to affect the way we live. We want to spend time with Him. We want to know His Word. We talk about Him. We share what He's doing in our lives. Through Passion, faith stops being something we occasionally observe and becomes something we actively live.   The apostle Paul captured this kind of passion in Romans 12:11: “Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the L...

In a world that often feels rushed and harsh, we are reminded that love can be steady, attentive, and faithful. Love shows up over time—in daily practices that shape who we are, what we value, and how we care for one another. This kind of love forms us not only in our homes, but also as a church family, calling us to live with intention, compassion, and trust. This sermon continues reflecting on love as we explore the theme, “What ...

In a time when division feels loud and fatigue runs deep, we believe love remains God’s most transformative force. This series will invite us to reflect on how love shapes how we speak, how we listen, how we disagree, and how we care for one another within our families, our church, and our wider community.

Whether you’re feeling hopeful, worn down, or somewhere in between, this series is for you. Come as y...

Fresh starts are like that. They are not just inspiring words or shared quotes. They are lived out in community, sustained by love in action. Without that love, even our best intentions stall. Justice becomes theory. Hope becomes a slogan. This message will invite us to imagine what a fresh start looks like when faith moves us beyond intention and into service to God and neighbor. And over the weekend we’ll help build that beloved ...
