    Message: Free From The Fear Of Judgment
    Series: Live Like You'll Live Forever
    Service Host: Pastor Ben Kuerth

    Welcome to Divine Savior Church in Doral, FL

    Have you ever experienced that uncomfortable feeling that others are watching you, trying to find something to criticize? We don’t want others judging us. It is bad enough listening to the voice inside our own head, whispering that we aren’t worthy. How do we overcome the fear of judgment? It begins by realizing that there is only one person whose opinion ultimately matters—the Judge. Everyone is going to live forever in one of two very different places. Where you spend eternity depends on a judgment that Jesus will render. This week we see why his judgment need not trigger any sort of anxiety. Judgment day is something we can joyfully anticipate. We can live free from the fear of judgment.

    Hebrews 9:24-28 - We can live free of the fear of God’s judgment because of the sacrifice our high
    priest made.

  • Live A Life Of Startling Generosity

    Message: Live A Life Of Startling Generosity
    Series: Live Like You'll Live Forever
    Service Host: Pastor Ben Kuerth

    Welcome to Divine Savior Church in Doral, FL

    Perhaps you have heard the axiom, “Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we die.” In other words, while you still can, use what you have in order to enjoy life to the fullest. If this life is all there is, St. Paul agrees that would be a good philosophy. Paul wrote, “If the dead are not raised, ‘Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die’” (1 Corinthians 15:32). However, note the “if.” Paul was saying that the epicurean approach to life makes sense only if this life is all we have. But it isn’t. Jesus will raise us from the dead and take us to live in his home, a place of perfect comfort and beauty. Knowing that, we are set free from the need to live a self-indulgent life now. Instead, we can be generous people, using the wealth that God has given us to serve both him and others. We can live a life of startling generosity.

    Mark 12:38-44 - Jesus points to a poor widow as an example of startling generosity.

  • Live Knowing Life Only Gets Better

    Message: Live Knowing Life Only Gets Better
    Series: Live Like You'll Live Forever
    Service Host: Pastor Ben Kuerth

    Welcome to Divine Savior Church in Doral, FL

    “It will get better.” We say that to try to comfort someone who is having a bad day (or maybe a whole string of bad days). Perhaps tomorrow will be better. But perhaps it’s worse. In this life, there really are no guarantees that things will get better. That isn’t the case with the life that is to come. That life isn’t just going to be better. It will be perfect.

    Isaiah 25:6-9 - The Lord Almighty promises his saints, all those who trust in him, that he will destroy
    the shroud of death.

  • Live A Life Of Fearless Witness | Pastor Ben Kuerth

    Message: Live A Life Of Fearless Witness
    Pastor Ben Kuerth

    Jesus reminded his followers that living as His disciples would bring hardship, yet He calls us to be bold witnesses. Living in obedience to God’s Law and sharing His message of mankind’s sin and salvation can be seen as offensive or even threatening to the world around us. So, why not just stay silent if it would make life easier? Why not keep our faith private? The answer is profound: because we are going to live forever.

    With hearts full of gratitude for Christ’s sacrifice and the gift of eternal life, we share the gospel with others, hoping they too will come to believe and be saved. Our confidence in heaven’s perfection frees us from fear of rejection, hardship, or even death as we bear witness to Christ.

    Join us in exploring the courage of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in Daniel 3:16-28. Despite facing an evil command from a pagan king, they stood firm, living as fearless witnesses for God. Their story reminds us that, regardless of the world’s threats, we have a promise of eternity, making every risk worthwhile in the name of sharing God's love.

  • God's Final Answer To Our Pain | Pastor Ben Kuerth
    Oct 21 2024

    nter around us. But did you know that life actually works better when we make it about God? This may seem counter-intuitive, yet it's a profound truth highlighted in the Bible. In some of the most powerful words in Scripture, God reminds Job that the universe doesn’t revolve around him. Instead, it revolves around God.

    In this final week of our series at Divine Savior Church in Doral, FL, we explore the closing chapters of the Book of Job, where God speaks directly to Job, giving him a deeper understanding of his place in creation. Through Job 31:6-10, 35; 38:1-35; and 42:1-6, we learn that a life centered on God will never disappoint, while a life focused solely on self always will. Discover how shifting our focus from ourselves to God can transform our perspective and bring true peace and fulfillment.

    Join us as we delve into these enlightening passages and listen to God's powerful words at the end of the book of Job.

  • It's OK To Question God
    Oct 16 2024

    Message: It's OK To Question God
    Series: Job: Finding Peace On An Unpredictable Path
    Pastor: Caleb Schmiege

    Welcome to Divine Savior Church in Doral, FL

    Is it OK to question God? Why have you received nothing you wanted from Him? Why has He let such awful things happen to you or those you love? Or to anyone in the world? Isn’t there a limit to what He will let you endure? Do you feel guilty if you are questioning God or something God is doing? Does questioning God mean you lost your faith in Him? Is there a difference between having questions for God and losing trust in Him? What gives us true comfort? Is it just maybe knowing WHO God is? Explore these questions with us in the book of Job this week.

    Job 3:11-25; 7:11-16

  • Where Is Jesus In Our Pain?
    Sep 30 2024

    Where Is Jesus In Our Pain? | Job's Journey to Hope and Peace

    Have you ever felt like God isn’t listening to your prayers, or that things just aren’t going your way? In times of suffering, it’s easy to wonder, "Where is God in my pain?" This message, part of the series Job: Finding Peace On An Unpredictable Path, focuses on the profound truth that God has already addressed the root of our pain on the cross. Jesus suffered, died, and rose again, offering us eternal hope. Just as Job found strength in God's promises, we too can hold on to the assurance that, because Jesus lives, we will live with Him forever. No matter what we go through in this life, we have the hope of eternal life with our Risen Lord, and we will be reunited with those we've lost in heaven. Join us on this journey to discover how faith in Christ provides hope even in our darkest times.
