Now, we may not always hear an audible voice of God where the clouds part and we hear a deep voice, but we have impressions. Why is that? It's because after the resurrection of Jesus and through the
- [YOU ASKED FOR IT: How Do I Share My Faith?](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/you-asked-for-it-how-do-i-share-my-faith/) - "Join Pastor Mike and Preston Ulmer as they sit down for a conversation about sharing your faith! Preston is the founder of the Doubter's Club!"
- [YOU ASKED FOR IT: How Do I Handle Stress?](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/you-asked-for-it-how-do-i-handle-stress/) - "Things happen, stressful situations rise - BUT - the promise of God is this that God will give us a supernatural strength to move past these circumstances! He will gives us spiritual wisdom and discernment to navigate through these waters, and peace that goes beyond understanding even when you can't see the light at the
- [YOU ASKED FOR IT: What are Spiritual Gifts?](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/you-asked-for-it-what-are-spiritual-gifts/) - "I want you to understand that you are a work of art and you were created by God. Your purpose lies with him. Your joy lies with him. Your fulfillment is tied to him. Life will never make sense unless God is the Savior and Lord of your life!"
- [YOU ASKED FOR IT: How Do I Handle Disappointment?](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/you-asked-for-it-how-do-i-handle-disappointment/) - "Disappointments come when our expectations are different than the reality of what we are experiencing. Sometimes we're so locked in on these expectations that we've written them in the stone of our heart. When the reality looks different than our expectations we walk in this state of disappointment."
- [Forgiveness](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/forgiveness/) - "The pain you FEEL today is the pain you can HEAL today!"
- [The Jesus Manifesto: JUDGEMENT](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/the-jesus-manifesto-judgement/) - “Sometimes, spiritually, God is going to allow us to go through trials so we're forced to make a choice on dealing with the things that are keeping us from our god-given design!”
- [The Jesus Manifesto: SOLID FOUNDATION](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/the-jesus-manifesto-solid-foundation/) - "See Joy does NOT mean happiness. It means that I know exactly where I am heading. It means that I know God has my best intentions at heart. It means that the storms will not sink my ship because God said I was getting to the other side! It means that circumstances are not a
- [The Jesus Manifesto: MONEY pt. 2](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/the-jesus-manifesto-money-pt-2/) - "There's a reason why Jesus spends so much time talking about money! It's why He talks about money more than everything else other than the kingdom of God. This is why over 50% of his Parables have to do with money. He understands that nothing will control our lives like money controls our hearts."
- [The Jesus Manifesto: MONEY pt.1](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/the-jesus-manifesto-money-pt-1/) - "Now for some reason, when this topic gets brought up it makes some people a little nervous and uncomfortable, ESPECIALLY in the Church. BUT did you know that Jesus talked on the topic of money more than just about everything else!? In fact, He talked more about money more than He did about Heaven!"
- [The Jesus Manifesto: BEATITUDES pt. 1](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/the-jesus-manifesto-beatitudes/) - The Sermon on the Mount is a Manifesto where Jesus is giving us a glimpse of the kingdom of God, not the kingdom of this world that the people of Israel have been picturing for thousands of years, and giving us an invitation to live in alignment with the kingdom of God. He kicks the
- [The Jesus Manifest: BEATITUDES pt. 2](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/the-jesus-manifest-beatitudes-pt-2/) - The Beatitudes mean "consummate bliss and blessedness." Basically, Jesus is saying that people that live like this are living in bliss - not anger, not hate, not bitterness, but BLISS! Now there are eight Beatitudes and last week we focused on the first 4: they show this dependence on God to change us from the inside!
- [The Jesus Manifesto: SALT & LIGHT](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/the-jesus-manifesto-salt-light/) - “You’re not just the salt of your community or the light of your city! Jesus says you are the SALT of the EARTh and the LIGHT of the WORLD! You need to leave church today knowing who you are in Christ so you know exactly what to do with it!”
- [The Jesus Manifesto: ANGER](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/the-jesus-manifesto-anger/) - The devil loves for you to be controlled by your emotions, not your spirit! When your emotions are in control they push you to your flesh, but when your spirit is in control your emotions draw you to God! Emotions are not bad - what is bad is when the wrong thing is in control!
- [The Jesus Manifesto: ADULTERY - GETTING TO THE HEART](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/the-jesus-manifesto-adultery-getting-to-the-heart/) - What we look at and expose ourselves to matters! How many of us as adults have visible images clear as day from unhealthy things we have viewed from years ago?! Whether it was sexual in nature, a horror movie that gave us nightmares, to a tragedy we witnessed — those things we saw get etched
- [The Jesus Manifesto: REVENGE/ENEMIES](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/the-jesus-manifesto-revenge-enemies/) - “I'm going to be honest with you, this is probably the part of The Sermon on the Mount that makes people the most uncomfortable. Here Jesus starts talking about how we should not retaliate and not resist an evil person — we have to turn the other cheek and go the extra mile for them!”
- [The Jesus Manifesto: PRAYER](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/the-jesus-manifesto-prayer/) - “I think a lot of people might think it’s dumb to ask how to pray. We often feel like everybody knows how to pray — praying is just talking to God. Right? But what I want you to see is this... EVEN THE DISCIPLES ASKED JESUS! The fact that Jesus answered their questions shows that there is MORE to prayer!
- [Always Getting Better](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/always-getting-better/) - Recently I hit a wall.....and no matter what I did...I couldn’t GROW beyond where I was....It was so frustrating...even depressing....and you know what that wall was....My SELF ESTEEM. God showed me he was calling me to this (hand higher in the air) .....but I only see myself being here( lower)...I couldn’t see myself doing what
- [Letters to the Church - Week 8](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/letters-to-the-church-week-8/) - There is a reason we put those things before God - it's because we desperately want to be fulfilled and there are areas in our lives that we desire satisfaction, but we are looking in the wrong place for it! Here are the 5 A’s that humanity lives for or craves! The 5 A's of Emotional Health: Acceptance, Affection, Approval, Attention, and Appreciation!
- [Letters to the Church - Week 7](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/letters-to-the-church-week-7/) - Self control is a battle within and the discipline to move forward! We have this battle between a divided self inside us! Have you ever felt like that? Have you ever felt that battle rising within? It's important that you first identify that there is a battle going on in our hearts! We know we aren’t perfect, but daily we strive to get rid of the negative things in our life and strive to be who God created us to be! All of this happens because of the death and resurrection of Jesus and that resurrection Spirit that is moving in us!
- [Easter Sunday](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/easter-sunday/) - God is trying to speak to your soul and tell you that there is MORE beyond your now! There is HOPE and no matter what you are going through GOD is with you! There is also a community that is FOR you and WITH you!
- [Apostles Creed - Week 6](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/apostles-creed-week-6/) - Without the resurrection, our preaching and our Gospel messages, are useless. Not only is our preaching useless, but our faith is useless too! It's empty! Without the resurrection, you would be placing your faith in something that is not true and a waste of time. People who trust in Jesus would just be deceiving themselves. An empty Gospel only produces empty faith – a faith that cannot save.
- [Letters to the Church - Week 6](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/letters-to-the-church-week-6/) - The holy spirit will convict you and the Holy Spirit will direct you, but you've got to choose to be the person that God wants you to be! Secondly, you need to understand that these attributes are not ala carte! You can't say you want peace and joy and not want patience or self-control because
- [Letters to the Church - Week 5](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/letters-to-the-church-week-5/) - Did you see this? God didn't love us because we did something nice for him and he felt compelled to act. No! God loved us despite our sin and the mistakes we have made! You don't just treat somebody good because they treated you good - you treat someone good despite the way they treat
- [Letters to the Church - Week 4](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/letters-to-the-church-week-4/) - Love is more than a feeling and love is definitely NOT an inward-focused emotion! Love sees the potential in someone and is compelled to help them reach-it despite the difficulty of that task! And you have to get this because this is not a suggestion of God for his followers it is a requirement of God
- [Apostles Creed - Week 11](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/apostles-creed-week-11/) - God doesn’t expect perfection in your life; He just wants progression in your life! Every day He wants you to get closer to God and closer to who you were created to be as you walk in Jesus of forgiveness and strength. God transforms us by changing the way we think, and we have to
- [Racism & Restoration](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/racism-restoration/) - An honest conversation on racism, injustice, discrimination, and what the church's response should be! An interview with Pastor Brandon Cormier & Pastor Michael Carlton
- [Apostles Creed - Week 10](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/apostles-creed-week-10/) - We also need to be unified under this understanding that the church is not an organization, it is not a building, it is not a denomination, it is not a brand, it is not the name of your tribal group. The church is the body of believers it’s you and me and when we come together as a community we are the church. It is not built with walls, but souls.
- [Apostles Creed - Week 5](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/apostles-creed-week-5/) - Because Jesus died, He destroyed the power of sin and death and He transfers that authority to YOU! So many times we look at sin, we look at our weaknesses, we look at our doubts, we look at our fears, we look at our failures, and we think they will always define us.
- [Apostles Creed - Week 9](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/apostles-creed-week-9/) - Your life isn’t built upon your talent, your charisma, your connections, or your resources. Your life is built and strengthened by the power and the anointing of God; the spirit that lives within you!
- [Apostles Creed - Week 8](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/apostles-creed-week-8/) - Jesus gave us every single thing we need to go out and be confident Christians proclaiming the greatness of God and witnessing to people! We are called to bring them to their eternal home so that when God comes to judge not only will we have the confidence to face the judgment, but when we get to heaven we will see God and He will say, "WELL DONE MY GOOD AND FAITHFUL SERVANT!”
- [Apostles Creed - Week 7](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/apostles-creed-week-7/) - Christ’s ascension provides a solid foundation and security in our salvation. The ascension ensures that Jesus’ ministry is stamped with God’s seal of approval!
- [Apostles Creed - Week 4](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/apostles-creed-week-4/) - The Gospel accounts of the death of Jesus in the trial of Jesus, and the Bible says that Jesus remained silent even though he was falsely accused. People hurled insults at him, cried out for his death, and cheered for the release of Barabbas over the innocent Jesus...
- [Apostles Creed - Week 3](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/apostles-creed-week-3/) - If Jesus's only objective was to forgive you of your sins so that you can go to heaven, He would not have spent 33 years on this earth! He would have immediately came down, died on the cross, resurrected, and immediately went to heaven!
- [Apostles Creed - Week 2](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/apostles-creed-week-2/) - The power of the devil has been broken and because of Jesus and his sacrifice, not only have our sins been taken away, but now we have a merciful and faithful high priest that is standing before God on our behalf helping us when we are going through testings!
- [Apostles Creed - Week 1](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/the-apostles-creed-week-1/) - As Christians, we believe that everything that exists traces its existence to God. He is the Maker of Heaven and Earth. Not only is he the maker, he's also the sustainer of all that is, all that ever was, and all that will ever be!
- [Letters to the Church - Week 3](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/letters-to-the-church-week-3/) - Wee know that to have patience we 1st need to embrace the journey! 2nd, we need to grow in the journey! 3rd, we need to have resolve in the journey! If we can keep all of these things on the forefronts of our mind, we can have PATIENCE! Then, they will know of our authentic
- [Letters to the Church - Week 2](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/letters-to-the-church-week-2/) - The Holy Spirit revealed itself in Jesus when He spoke to the devil after being tempted. His response is what our response should always be: I don't crave myself, I crave my God. I don't need to test my God, I know my God loves me and cares for me as I am His child.
- [Letters to the Church - Week 1](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/letters-to-the-church-week-1/) - The authentic life that you're called to live will not happen unless you understand who you are striving to model your life after. We must fix our gaze upon Jesus because he's our champion!
- [Mother's Day Service](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/mothers-day-service/) - If you pour out your complaints online and to others instead of to God, you will always be frustrated! If you never see your God as bigger than your problems, you will always be overwhelmed! If you only live for yourself, you will never find fulfillment!
- [Bloom - Week 3](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/bloom-week-3/) - So many times we think sin is just something immoral we do. Like having an affair, stealing, harming someone. Now, while it is those things, it is so much deeper than that!
- [Bloom - Week 2](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/bloom-week-2/) - God did not create you to be lonely! God did not create you to be defeated! God did not create you to live in despair! God did not create you to be insignificant! God created us ALL for the community!
- [Bloom - Week 1](https://bloomhere.org/sermons/bloom-week-1/) - Some of you base your entire life on how you feel - if it feels good, whether it’s right or wrong, you do it. If it’s too inconvenient you don’t do it. You put yourself first. If it feels like it might be hard you settle instead of stretch yourself to be great!
