December 10, 2023 | "Cranky Christmas: Blessed Are The Flexible" | Rev. Roberto Chaple
9:30 AM - Traditional Service
11:15 AM - Praise Service
Summary:
Pastor Roberto Chaple delivered a sermon titled "Blessed Are The Flexible" as part of the Advent series called "Cranky Christmas." The sermon emphasizes the need for flexibility in the face of life's challenges and the importance of being prepared for the unexpected, especially during the Christmas season.
Pastor Chaple draws parallels between the inflexible expectations of the Jewish people during the time of Jesus and the rigid assumptions Christians often make about how God should fulfill promises. He highlights the tendency to resist change when God's plans do not align with personal expectations.
The central theme revolves around the idea that God compares believers to flexible things, such as clay in the hands of a potter or a ship following a good shepherd. The challenge arises when believers struggle to maintain their flexibility when God's plans deviate from their assumptions.
The sermon uses the examples of Mary and Joseph to illustrate the importance of being flexible, adaptable, and open to the unexpected ways in which God works. Mary's initial questioning (Luke 1:34) contrasts with her ultimate acceptance and flexibility (Luke 1:38) when she realizes the divine plan.
Pastor Chaple underscores the role of the Holy Spirit in transforming doubtful and skeptical attitudes (Luke 1:35-37). He encourages believers to be open to supernatural occurrences, understanding that God's power is not limited to the past and remains active in contemporary times.
The sermon concludes with a prayer for flexibility, availability, and vision. Believers are urged to seek flexibility in God's hands, embrace availability for His calling, and have a visionary outlook for what God can accomplish through them and in their future generations.
Overall, Pastor Chaple's sermon emphasizes the need for believers to remain open, adaptable, and faithful to God's plans, even when faced with unexpected circumstances.

“As a response to these tensions, many Christians accommodated their faith in order to tolerate the demands of the culture. This is why Jesus said... "Nevertheless, I have this against you: You tolerate that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophet. By her teaching, she misleads my servants into sexual immorality and the eating of food sacrificed to idols. For many Christians in Thyatira, tolerance was their willingness to compromise their faith and coexist with beliefs and behaviors that differed from God's. They had sacrificed their faith in the altar of business.“ - Pastor Roberto Chaple
