Stonebridge Bible Church Sermons

In this sermon from John 17, we are invited into the true Lord’s Prayer — not the prayer given to the disciples, but the prayer Jesus Himself prayed on behalf of His people. As Christ lifts His disciples before the Father, we are given a glimpse into the heart of our Savior and the ongoing work He is accomplishing for those who belong to Him.

Jesus prays for the preservation of His people, their joy in the midst of a hostile world, their protection from the evil one, their growth in holiness through the truth of God’s Word, and their witness to a world that desperately needs the Gospel. This passage reminds us that believers are not abandoned, aimless, or forgotten — they are loved by the Father, secured by the Son, empowered by the Spirit, and sent with a mission.

In this sermon from John 17:3, we explore the heart of eternal life: knowing God. Jesus did not die merely to give us information about God, but to bring us into a real relationship with Him. As believers, we are invited near—not to remain distant spectators, but to know Christ deeply and personally.This message examines how Christians grow in their knowledge of God through His Word, through prayer, through suffering, and through the encouragement of His people. As we learn to crave the pure spiritual milk of the Word and pursue intimacy with Christ, we discover that true spiritual growth is not about empty religion, but a living relationship with the God who saves.Key Points:1. Crave the pure spiritual milk of the word2. Through prayer3. Through suffering4. Through his people

Jesus said in John 17:3, “This is eternal life, that they may know You.” In this sermon, we explore the heart of Christianity—not merely knowing about God, but truly knowing Him through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. From the words of Christ on the eve of the cross to the testimony of Scripture, this message examines why knowing God is our greatest privilege, the heartbeat of the Christian life, and the believer’s chief ambition.

In a world chasing wisdom, success, wealth, and recognition, Scripture calls us to boast in something greater: that we understand and know the living God. This sermon walks through the glory of Christ, the meaning of eternal life, and the staggering reality that the Creator of the universe invites sinners into fellowship with Himself.

In this sermon, we walk through John 17 and see what Christ is doing even now—interceding for His people. Throughout Scripture, prophets spoke for God, kings ruled under God, and priests stood before God on behalf of the people. In Jesus, all three find their fulfillment, and here we are given a glimpse into His role as our great High Priest.

As He prepares for the cross, Jesus lifts His eyes to the Father and prays. The hour has come—the moment all of history has been moving toward, the plan of redemption set before the foundation of the world now unfolding.

Key Points:1. His Posture of Humility2. His Prayer for Glory3. His Total Authority

Through this passage, we are invited to see Christ as the One who bears His people on His heart, accomplishes the Father’s will, and continues to intercede on our behalf.

Marriage matters because God designed it to display His wisdom, His grace, and His glory. In this message from 1 Peter 3:1–7, we are reminded that marriage is not merely a private relationship, but a sacred calling that carries eternal significance. Through conviction, submission, honor, and love, husbands and wives are called to reflect the heart of Christ in the way they serve one another.

This sermon explores God’s design for wives to cultivate a gentle, respectful, and hopeful spirit, and for husbands to lead with considerate care, protection, and honor toward their wives. As we follow God’s pattern for marriage, He is honored, homes are strengthened, and lives are impacted.
