Over the last 30 years our culture has shifted dramatically on the issue of homosexuality. This has created enormous tension within those who seek to study, understand, and live out what the Bible teaches. There is no doubt that Christ followers are called to love and reach all people in the name of Jesus. However, this love cannot come at the expense of Biblical truth because the Gospel calls everyone to repent and believe.    Speaker: Pastor Ben Dixon Scripture: John 1:14, Leviticus 20:13, 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 Series: Christ in Culture   Northwest Church - www.nwcfoursquare.org For more information visit www.bendixon.org

There is no doubt that our culture is oversexualized and all of us have been influenced by these current values. In this sermon, Pastor Ben Dixon discusses the many lies that have developed a toxic culture around the topic of sexuality. Secondly, he focuses on a fresh Biblical vision of sexuality that has the power to move us toward a more healthy and godly way.   Speaker: Pastor Ben Dixon Scripture: 1 Corinthians 6:9-20 Series: Christ in Culture   Northwest Church - www.nwcfoursquare.org For more information go to www.bendixon.org

Theologian A. W. Tozer said, "What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us." In this message Pastor Ben Dixon teaches on what the Bible is, that it is the divinely inspired Word of God, why it is reliable, and why it must have authority over our lives today.   Speaker: Pastor Ben Dixon Scripture: Romans 1:19-20, Acts 9:1-9, 2 Timothy 3:15-17, Luke 24:27, John 3:16-18, Matthew 22:37-39, 1 Corinthians 13:12 Series: Christ in Culture   Northwest Church - www.nwcfoursquare.org For more information visit www.BenDixon.org

Pastor Ben Dixon starts a sermon series surrounding culture and the church. In this message we begin to define what culture is and how Christians are to engage the culture with the love of Jesus Christ.   Speaker: Pastor Ben Dixon Scripture: John 17:13-21, John 3:16-17, 1 John 5:19, Ephesians 6:12, James 4:4, Romans 12:2, 1 John 2:15-17 Series: Christ in Culture   For more information go to www.bendixon.com

All of us will face many challenges in life which have the power to do great damage if we are not careful. The Lord is always at work and He intends to save, heal, deliver, strengthen and we cannot afford to forget who He is as we put our full trust in Him for breakthrough. Today we will look at a passage that exhorts us to move toward the Lord in a greater way as we REMEMBER all that He has done!   Speaker: Pastor Ben Dixon Scripture: Psalms 103:1-5, Genesis 3:13, Judges 2:10, Psalms 119:93 Series: Freedom in Christ   For more information visit www.bendixon.org

We live in a world full of sin which regularly introduces various levels of conflict that we all must deal with. It’s not hard to get offended and become bitter and unforgiving which is the normal response of our flesh. Jesus stepped into this kind of world and showed us what real forgiveness looks like through His own sacrifice. By placing our faith in Jesus, we are completely forgiven of all our sin and made right with God. Not only do we receive forgiveness from Jesus for ourselves, but as His disciples we are called to follow His way by forgiving others when they sin against us. When Jesus taught about forgiveness, He showed us that it’s not merely an obedient action but an inward heart attitude. Therefore, we are called to walk with God in such a way where we constantly and consistently release what we have received - forgiveness!   Speaker: Pastor Ben Dixon Scripture: Matthew 18:21-35, Mark 11:25, Luke 17:3, Matthew 18:15, Jeremiah 31:34, Hebrews 10:17, Genesis 50:18-20 Series: Freedom In Christ This i

We live in a world that has seemingly normalized and legitimized being offended. At some point, we all feel the pressure to say one thing or not say another, and if we, somehow, fail to comply then an offended party is soon to follow. Do you know what I mean? Sure, real sins lead to real offense, and we deal with that specifically and directly as the Bible teaches. However, what about our perceptions, expectations, and even interpretations of what is going on around us? Jesus is not only the payment for our sins, but He is also the pattern for our life. And as we can see from Scripture He was not easily offended, nor did He carry offenses. Therefore, to be free from an offended heart means that we choose a Christlike response in the way we act, interact, and react to people and situations of life. Speaker: Pastor Ben Dixon Scripture: Luke 17:1-6, Proverbs 18:19, 1 Peter 4:8, 11 Timothy 3:16-17, Psalm 119:165, Luke 6:27-28, Proverbs 19:11 Series: Freedom In Christ This is the 8th session in the series, "Fre

Most of us have heard the saying “hurt people will hurt people.” We know this statement is true because we all have experienced the reality of it. When emotional wounds are caused, they have a way of repeating themselves through those who have been hurt if the wound is not healed. Sometimes we are the source of that wound which caused great pain in another person either directly or indirectly. Is there something you have done to another person that you wish you could take back? Have you left anything unresolved in a past relationship where you caused pain? In this message, Pastor Ben looks at a very well-known story in the Old Testament to learn how God called someone to break the cycle of pain through the power of reconciliation. Speaker: Pastor Ben Dixon Scripture: Genesis 25:27-34, Genesis 27:30-35, Genesis 27:41 - 28:5, Genesis 31:3, Genesis 32:24-32, Matthew 5:23-24 Series: Freedom In Christ This is the 7th session in the series, "Freedom in Christ".

here is no doubt that every human heart longs to know and fulfill their purpose. Some people may not know what that purpose is, but many who follow Jesus have a general sense of what He wants them to do. What if a primary reason that so many people don’t engage their God given purpose for their future is because they are still weighted down by the wounds of their past? Jesus wants to set us free from our past and heal our wounds so that we are unhindered in our love for Him and service toward others. In this message, Pastor Ben discusses how to deal with our past wounds as we receive the healing that only Jesus provides. Speaker: Pastor Ben Dixon Scripture: Luke 4:18, Hebrews 12:1-4, Psalm 109:22 Series: Freedom In Christ This is the 6th session in the series, "Freedom in Christ". Northwest Church - nwcfoursquare.org "On mission with Jesus to see the lost saved and disciples made."

When Jesus began His ministry, He declared that He would set the oppressed free. Another word for oppressed could be “wounded.” Jesus is the Great Physician and He wants to perform surgery on our soul in the area of our wounding so that we are no longer held back from becoming everything He desires. If we are honest, most of us have wounds that come from our earthly fathers which hinders our relationship with our Heavenly Father. In this message, Pastor Ben dives deeper into the issue of father wounds and focuses on the healing that God provides through our relationship with Him.   Speaker: Pastor Ben Dixon Scripture: Luke 4:18, Deuteronomy 5:8-10, Matthew 6:14-15 Series: Freedom In Christ   This is the 5th session in the series, "Freedom in Christ".   Northwest Church - www.nwcfoursquare.org "On mission with Jesus to see the lost saved and disciples made."

Our freedom in Christ is given, but something that is often overlooked or even misunderstood is that it must be guarded. We have enemies that will oppose our freedom on a daily basis and our greatest enemy is that sinful, selfish, hardened, unrepentant, and un-surrendered version of ourselves. Through Galatians 5:13-26 we are going to allow the Apostle Paul to pastor us in how it is that we stay free from the power of the flesh.   Speaker: Pastor Ben Dixon Scripture: Galatians 5:13-26, Romans 8:13, 1 Peter 2:11, Luke 9:23, Galatians 6:7-8, John 15:1-7 Series: Freedom In Christ   This is the 4th session in the series, "Freedom in Christ".   For more information go to www.bendixon.org

Although we have been created new in Christ, many live with a sense of defeat and discouragement because they can’t seem to stay free even though they know that Jesus paid for them to be free. Why is this the case? In our message today we are going to explore the implications of understanding and embracing our true identity in Christ which will lead to even greater freedom for all of us!   Speaker: Pastor Ben Dixon Scriptures: Colossians 3:1-17, 2 Corinthians 5:17 Series: Freedom in Christ   This is the 3rd session in the series, "Freedom in Christ".   For more information go to www.bendixon.org

Jesus wants us to be completely free from our sin, our past and the power of demonic influence. But the real question we need to ask is, “Do WE want to be free?” How do we know if what WE want matches what HE wants? In our passage today, we will discover some practical insight about the freedom in Christ through an interaction that Jesus has with a crippled man in Jerusalem.   Speaker: Pastor Ben Dixon Scriptures: John 5:1-9 Series: Freedom in Christ   This is the 2nd session in the series, "Freedom in Christ".   For more information go to www.bendixon.org

Biblical freedom is about obeying and doing what God wants. God's desire for us is to live free from the captivity of sin, and the Holy Spirit is relentless in His pursuit of seeing this fulfilled in our lives. In this message Pastor Ben Dixon teaches on how to receive, retain and release the freedom from captivity that Jesus Christ extends to us.   Speaker: Pastor Ben Dixon Scripture: Luke 4:14-21, John 8:31-34, 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24, Philippians 2:12-13, Psalms 84:5-7 Series: Freedom In Christ   This is the 1st session in the series, "Freedom In Christ".   For more information go to www.bendixon.org

God is good and He wants to bless our lives more than we want Him to but He simply won’t bypass what’s most important, which is our full allegiance to Him. In 1 Kings 18 Pastor Ben Dixon teaches several principles that preceded God’s answer to a very difficult time in the lives of His people Israel. His work in them was more important than what He did for them and the same is still true for us today.   Speaker: Pastor Ben Dixon Scripture: 1 Kings 18:20-45 Series: Stand Alone Messages   For more information go to www.bendixon.org

On Resurrection Sunday 2022 Pastor Ben Dixon shows how the resurrection of Jesus dramatically changed a small group of people from hopeless defeat to passionate victory that motivated them to change the world.----more---- Scripture: Mark 16:1-20 Speaker: Pastor Ben Dixon Series: Mark: On Mission With Jesus   This is the 47th session in the series, "Mark: On Mission with Jesus."----more---- For more information go to www.bendixon.org

How do we keep contending for His Kingdom to come and His will to be done on earth as it is in Heaven without giving up in the process? We find the answer to that question in Luke chapter 18 as Jesus tells His disciples a parable that illustrates the importance of persistent prayer. As you will see, the goal of persistent prayer is not merely that we pray a lot but rather it is the way we stay committed to and contending for the will of God to manifest in and through our lives.   Speaker: Pastor Ben Dixon Scripture: Luke 18:1-8, Luke 17:20-22, John 16:31-33, Psalm 27:13 Series: Stand Alone Messages   For more information go to www.bendixon.org

Through the story of the prodigal son in Luke 15 we see a picture of God's love toward us. He loves us even when we walk away, wander, or have a hardened heart, and He loves us enough to call us to change. God is our heavenly Father and He is ready to welcome us home with open arms.   Speaker: Pastor Ben Dixon Scripture: Luke 15:11-31 Series: Stand Alone Messages   For more information go to www.bendixon.org

In this message Pastor Ben Dixon teaches on Jesus' final hours and crucifixion. We will see that even though Jesus suffered greatly and was mocked openly, Jesus acted only selflessly and gave himself fully for our redemption. As a result of Jesus' intentional suffering for us we get to receive salvation, cleansing for our sin, and the privilege to commit our future to Jesus' discipleship.   Speaker: Pastor Ben Dixon Scripture: Mark 14:43-15:21, John 19:17-30, 1 Corinthians 1:18, Philippians 2:8, Isaiah 53:4-7, Luke 23:1-49, 2 Corinthians 5:21 Series: Mark: On Mission with Jesus   This is the 46th session in the series, "Mark: On Mission with Jesus."   For more information go to www.bendixon.org.
