The Tabernacle Church St. Bernard

In this sermon, Pastor Chris Lodriguss teaches out of Luke 19 using the story of Zacchaeus the tax collector. We are called to see the person underneath the circumstances. People are searching for what Jesus offers but they don't always know he's offering it. So we must learn to build relationships and not be afraid to invite ourselves into the lives of others because they may not feel worthy. Learn how Jesus did all this with Zacchaeus and more.

Welcome to The Tabernacle Church! In this message, Pastor Chris kicks off our brand new series, Vision Check, with a powerful opening message titled Eyes of Truth. Taking a close look at Matthew 9:9, this message explores how Jesus encountered Matthew sitting at the tax collector's booth and chose to see the person rather than the cultural label. Drawing from an unforgettable story of a hidden antique blanket whose true worth was only realized when seen through the right eyes, Pastor Chris shares how Jesus views each of us with immeasurable value and grace. We are challenged to look past the labels, boxes, and stereotypes of society, step out of our own booths, and start seeing the people around us through the compassionate eyes of Christ.

In this sermon Pastor Chris Lodriguss teaches on God's perspective in coming into agreement with him. God knows who we are, he knows our pasts, our mistakes, and our stories, but he still chooses us for the purposes he calls us to. So learn more and be encouraged and empowered to believe in God's calling on your life.

In this sermon Pastor Chris Lodriguss teaches out of Timothy, Psalms, and Jeremiah to illustrate God's anointing and how we come into agreement with it. God knows the end from the beginning and has chosen us for a purpose and plan. We can't mess it up, but we can refuse the call. Learn about what it is to have a unique anointing and getting your anointing refreshed regularly.

In this sermon, Guest Speaker Bishop Henry Ballard teaches on Luke chapter 4. When you say yes to God, there are those who will criticize and resist you. The ones who will resist your calling the hardest will often be those who are closest to you. But God chooses who he wants and we only need to say yes to God and not seek the approval of others as long as we are in alignment with God. Learn how to navigate one of the more trying discouragements encountered in our walks.
