Experiencing God is Different For Everyone

2012-02-27T09:30:00.000-08:00

You've seen God do some amazing things but now you're the one who is scared, alone and running. God wants you to know that He's not only the God of the Wind above, the earth below and of fire that consumes heartlessly; He's the God of your fears as well. He's the God of the quiet when you think you're all alone. You may have to travel a great distance in your life, back roads and highways and double-backs, but it's not because God only exists in one place... it's because He's getting you to a place of surrender, dependence and trust. Are you willing to go with Him into the quiet?

Experiencing God Requires That we Aim for Holiness

2012-02-13T15:41:00.000-08:00

In this message we hear the story of David H and some of the struggles he has faced in his life. It's amazing what God can do with a life that is surrendered to Him - in spite of some terrible circumstances. His story leads us to discuss perhaps the number one reason you may not be experiencing God in your everyday life, sin. Sin seeks to keep us secluded, captive, confined even as we simply and quietly hold the truth inside. But when we expose our sin and our story to the light we experience the freedom that only comes through Jesus Christ.

The Journey to a Brand New Life

2012-01-30T12:15:00.000-08:00

Have you ever looked back on your life and felt guilt, shame or remorse for the paths you went down or the difficulties you encountered? Did you ever wish you would have had an easier life? Maybe you've complained to God about the difficulty you've experienced. What if I told you that your Journey, no matter how difficult or troublesome, is exactly what God has used to get you where He wants you to be?
Join us in this message as we learn two important truths: Without the journey, the destination would be unreachable. And, without the destination the journey would be pointless.

It's not about where you've been, it's about where you're going.

A Brand New Model for Leadership

2012-01-23T10:23:00.000-08:00

In our Brand New Life series we have been looking at the Israelite exodus from Egypt in the book of Exodus. This message comes from Exodus 18 where the model of shared leadership is brought to Moses attention by his Father-in-law, Jethro. Shared leadership is the model for the Elders who were appointed by the Apostles in the book of Acts. It is also the model of leadership here at Real Life. During this message we are excited to have Corey introduce our very first Elder candidates and look forward to all that God will do through this new leadership structure - new to us anyway...

A Whole New Level of Trust - week 2

2012-01-09T10:34:00.000-08:00

It's a New Year and that means time to make changes for many people. Instead of adding more items to your calendar and trying to fit it all on your timetable perhaps it's time scrap your schedule and get on God's. To scrap your plans and get a new God-plan!

In this message from Corey two vital truths are learned from the Israelites at the beginning of their journey to the Promised Land. First, unmet expectations cause us to question God. And second, we must come to know God in a new way before we can trust Him at a new level.

It's time for you to meet YAHWEH RAPHA - the LORD who heals.

Looking For A Change In 2012? Get a New Life

2012-01-03T17:32:00.000-08:00

It's a new year, time for some changes? Instead of adding more stuff to your calendar, you need a new one!

No Longer to Find... Now to Follow.

2011-12-28T13:43:00.000-08:00

Every event. Every step. Every choice. Everything has the potential to drastically alter the future. For you. For those around you. For some you have never... and will never meet. What you choose to do and say becomes very important. The Journey you are on is not about the journey, it's about what you do on the journey. You can take a stand one time and change a life. You can stand on your faith and trust in God at every opportunity and change a Nation.
The Journey is a four-stop even that will take you from seeing to believing. You'll follow the wise men from Babylon to to Bethlehem as they witness the Sign, the Son and Salvation. Discover your own faith and passion for life on The Journey.

Forgotten God week 1: What Did You Expect?

2011-11-07T14:43:00.000-08:00

WE TALK A LOT ABOUT GOD. WHAT HE EXPECTS AND HOW WE ARE TO APPROACH HIM. HOW WE SHOULD PRAY TO HIM AND LOVE HIM. WE STUDY A LOT ABOUT JESUS. WHAT HE DID FOR US ON THE CROSS AND HOW HE DEMONSTRATED HIS LOVE FOR US. BUT WHAT ABOUT THAT OTHER ONE, GRANDMA CALLED HIM THE HOLY GHOST. HE GETS THE CREDIT FOR KILLING THOSE TWO PEOPLE WHO LIED TO HIM IN THE BOOK OF ACTS. WE KNOW HE EXISTS AND THAT HE’S SUPPOSED TO LIVE INSIDE OF EVERY BELIEVER. BUT DO WE REALLY KNOW HIM? DO WE UNDERSTAND THAT JESUS WANTED TO LEAVE THIS PLANET SO THAT THE COUNSELOR AND GUIDE AND COMFORTER WOULD COME? DID YOU KNOW THAT JESUS BELIEVED WE WOULD BE BETTER OFF WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT IN US, THEN WITH JESUS STILL IN THE WORLD? COME DISCOVER THE FORGOTTEN GOD WITH US.

Carbon Copy 9 - Fight Like Jesus

2011-10-31T12:07:00.000-07:00

Last message in the Carbon Copy Series deals with Satan's attacks. He uses the same M.O. he's used for thousands of years, distract you from the Word, distract you from the goal and make you think you're more important than you are. Same stuff, different day. Corey talks about his own temptations leading up to this weeks message and how God used what Satan was doing to teach him a lesson about how to fight like Jesus.

Carbon Copy 7 - the FAITH of Jesus

2011-10-17T12:22:00.000-07:00

A life well lived. Sounds good, right? But how do we achieve that when we get conflicting advice everywhere we turn? It doesn't have to be so complicated. In fact, we already have a blueprint for our private and public lives. Come see what we can learn from being a Carbon Copy.

1 Corinthians - What's Hair got to do with It? (chp 11)

2011-06-13T10:31:00.000-07:00

Do you ever feel like you're just going through the Christian motions but not connecting, not getting anywhere? Life has a way of distracting us from what is truly important and convincing us that faith is just an addition to our lives; that even through we're believers we have to do life like everybody else. That's what the church in Corinth thought, that they could act like everybody else in the world and still be Christians. But God requires more of our lives. In fact, it's pretty clear in this book that if your living like the world there is a problem. A disconnect in your faith. This series will help us restore that disconnect and get back to living like we believe.

True[ish] - week 2 - As Long As You're Happy, NOT!

2011-04-13T12:09:00.000-07:00

Its important to know what the Truth is and believe it. You and I live our entire lives based on the truth as we believe it to be, not based on the Truth as it actually is. If we believe the Truth, then our lives will line up with Christ and we will live what we believe, that's Real Life! But many people believe that if they are happy - then they must be doing right, if they are unhappy, there must be something wrong. Did you know that your happiness (or lack there of) does not affect the rest of the world?! Discover what God wants for you beyond your temporary happiness in this week's message.

Practice Makes Permanent - Mission #4

2011-04-04T14:43:00.000-07:00

At Real Life we want to help every person possible find real life through a relationship with Jesus Christ. Everything we do is driven by this desire. In this message and series we will be looking at the Vision and purpose for Real Life as we seek this year to put into PRACTICE the things we say we believe and have studied. As we practice what it means to help every person possible we are not only living out God's call on our lives but we are working to make permanent the behaviors and thoughts that Jesus Himself exhibited.

2011-03-28T12:48:00.000-07:00

I Will Be With You - part 2

2011-02-15T07:47:00.000-08:00

Gideon's story is one most of us can relate to, but few of us seldom ever experience. Called from obscurity. Called from his hiding hole where he just trudged through life, everyday like the day before. Called from his complaining about a situation he did nothing to change. He became a great warrior for God. Not because of some brilliant strategy or military maneuvering, but because he listened to God and was willing to stake his life on God's promise. God is calling you out of the rut of your life and into something incredible... but it requires you to trust completely in Him.

I Will Be With You - part 1

2011-02-10T09:38:00.000-08:00

With God all things are possible. Stop whining. Stop making excuses. Get to work. No matter what place you are in God is speaking to you and calling you out of where you are and into what He knows you are capable of accomplishing!

Vision 2011

2011-01-31T19:35:00.000-08:00

A look back to see what was accomplished and a look forward to see what could be. Our theme this year is PRACTICE and theme verse is Matthew 7:24,25. In this message we look at what God is calling us to in 2011 and how we're gonna get there.

Solid Faith

2011-01-25T09:39:00.000-08:00

Have you ever heard anyone say, "all you need to do is have faith." Did you understand what they were talking about? Some people think of blind faith, which is really no faith at all. Believing you can fly is NOT faith, no matter how strongly you believe it, it's called stupidity. Our faith is grounded in the evidence, the little things and the big things that cause us to believe, beyond the doubts (that always come and go) that what we hope for will come to pass. Want to know what faith is? How to develop it and move to a place where your faith is absolute despite what happens around you? Join us for this in depth look at FAITH.

THIS WEEK: Corey shares from Hebrews 11, the stories of men of faith. Modern day faith is often not faith at all. We don't absolutely believe that God will come through so we make sure that even if God doesn't show up, we can accomplish what we think He's asked us to do, without Him. But without that complete trust and dependence on God (faith) it is impossible to please God. Are you pleasing God in your life? Are you living in faith or just pretending?

Skeptical FAITH

2011-01-10T09:35:00.000-08:00

Have you ever heard anyone say, "all you need to do is have faith." Did you understand what they were talking about? Some people think of blind faith, which is really no faith at all. Believing you can fly is NOT faith, no matter how strongly you believe it, it's called stupidity. Our faith is grounded in the evidence, the little things and the big things that cause us to believe, beyond the doubts (that always come and go) that what we hope for will come to pass. Want to know what faith is? How to develop it and move to a place where your faith is absolute despite what happens around you? Join us for this in depth look at FAITH.

THIS WEEK: Corey shares from the story of Mark 9, the demon possessed boy and his father. What we see is a God who not only can, but will get personal and press in to our lives so that we can overcome skeptical faith.

Saving Faith

2011-01-03T08:31:00.000-08:00

Have you ever heard anyone say, "all you need to do is have faith." Did you understand what they were talking about? Some people think of blind faith, which is really no faith at all. Believing you can fly is NOT faith, no matter how strongly you beleive it, it's called stupidity. My faith is grounded in the evidence, the little things and the big things that cause to believe, beyond the doubts (that always come and go) that what I hope for will come to pass. Want to know what faith is? How to develop it and move to a place where your faith is absolute despite what happens around you? Join us for this indepth look at FAITH.

THIS WEEK: From a church attender to the realization that he was an atheist to real faith and real life, Joel shares with us about his personal journey to faith in Jesus Christ.

Christmas with the Cranks is DYSFUNCTIONAL

2010-12-30T07:23:00.000-08:00

Dysfunction means something isn't working like it is supposed to. When that happens nobody gets anywhere. Dysfunctions stems from selfishness. Selfishness is from the Devil. As believers in Jesus we are to act in humility toward others and consider others better than ourselves, this "servant attitude" comes from Christ's example and turns the tide of dysfunction.

Christmas with the Cranks is DEPRESSING

2010-12-23T08:54:00.000-08:00

Christmas with the Cranks is STRESSFUL!

2010-12-16T07:02:00.000-08:00

Christmas is a difficult time of year for many even though it is supposed to be the most wonderful time of the year. It is often busy, stressful, depressing and dysfunctional instead of happy and joyful. In this series we'll explore why Christmas can be such a downer and what to do about it to make this Christmas your best Christmas!

Blessed to share Christ.

2010-12-01T15:54:00.000-08:00

Many people pray, "God, please bless me..." And God wants to bless you. But the blessings of God are often more than a new car, a bigger salary and a better lifestyle. In this series, "Blessed," we'll experience firsthand some of God's unusual blessings.

Blessed to be a blessing

Technical difficulties

2010-11-15T09:50:00.000-08:00

Hey all you around the world who watch these messages, I must apologize for experiencing yet more technical difficulties. With out-dated equipment and just trying to "make it work" any way we can we sometimes run into issues. For whatever reason the dvd burner messed up while recording and while the message is on the disc the computers can't read it. So, There will be no posting of this weeks message.
I hope that in the future we will be able to upgrade equipment, etc., and have fewer and fewer of these issues. I guess this is what happens when you try to function on a commercial level with home-use tools.
Again, I apologize for not being able to share this message with you. Hopefully next week, whether we have the funds to upgrade or not the system will work as intended and I can post that message.

God's best to you!

Blessed: with a need

2010-11-08T11:42:00.000-08:00

Wow, I am humbled...

2010-11-01T19:34:00.000-07:00

Just checked and saw that in the last month people from 13 different countries either viewed this blog or read one of my blog posts at www.coreylandreth.blogspot.com. Crazy. Hey, let's do this, if you view this blog or the message blog why not comment on whatever your viewing and let us know where you're reading/watching from?! Come on, it will be fun!

Thanks for allowing me to actually be used by God! I hope it blesses you!

What you see is not all there is. The Bible says, "We are not fighting against people made of flesh and blood, but against the evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world..." (Eph 6:12, NLT). Join us as we study spiritual warfare, the Holy Spirit, angels and demons. Together we'll uncover the SuperNatural.

Another World

2010-10-11T10:24:00.000-07:00

This is the last in the Redeeming Daytime Television series.

As the World Turns

2010-09-13T10:52:00.000-07:00

So, there's this great big ball floating in space we call earth. It is the only "perfect" planet, among millions and billions that we've seen, to sustain life. Other's may have the "building blocks" for life but none of them could sustain us. Why? Why is this planet the only one? I have a possible answer for that. As the world turns you may get to thinking that its just another day, another dollar, another trip to the store or dinner plan... but there is so much more to life!

The Bold and the Beautiful

2010-09-09T12:20:00.000-07:00

We continue the Redeeming Daytime Television series with this message especially geared toward men and women. Married? Single? Doesn't matter. The truth is that we don't act alike, process info alike or think alike. But God had a solution for our differences... you want to know what it is don't you. David Fish, OCC professor and missionary shares how the Bold (men) and the Beautiful (women) can get along. Oh, don't worry about the black screen in the middle, that's just a video clip we can't show you... but listen.

Redeeming Daytime Television - Part 2

2010-08-30T08:13:00.000-07:00

Join us as we use Daytime Television to dive deeper into the Guiding Light that leads us through our One Life to Live as this World Turns for The Bold and the Beautiful alike. After all God says to those who believe, you are All My Children… even The Young and the Restless. So don’t miss this opportunity to stake your claim in Another World. In this series we’ve piggy-backed on some of the standards of Daytime Television and will use them to unpack topics such as Marriage, God’s Word and making the most of your life, etc.

Discipline-Ship: Personal Worship

2010-08-05T11:30:00.000-07:00

This week, Ryan Nelson, Sr. Pastor of 33Church shares from John 9 about the blind man Jesus healed and our own progression toward "personal" worship, which is simply recognizing, for ourselves, that Jesus is Lord.

Discipline-ship: Communion

2010-07-28T12:27:00.000-07:00

This week's message deals with Communion, sometimes called the Lord's Supper or in other circles the Holy Eucharist (Eucharist means "give thanks"). What it is, where did it come from, what does it represent and why should we/do we go to the trouble of having it? These and many more questions will be answered on this weeks episode of "Church," Real Life in the Real World!

Message from July 18- Discipline-ship: Fasting

2010-07-27T16:51:00.000-07:00

In this message Corey talks about the spiritual discipline of fasting - going without food in an attempt to seek God. See, it's not about the food. It's about God. His plan. His direction. His perspective. His discipline.

Message Series: Represent - part 3; the Church

2010-07-27T12:23:00.000-07:00

No video for 5-23

2010-05-25T08:48:00.000-07:00

Technical difficulties once again plauge the video production for Real Life. We currently use an analog video camera (old style) to record directly on to a DVD and then import that file into our video editing software. This creates multiple format problems and once again the editing software is not happy with the dvd writing for the service.

Until we have the needed funds (about $500) to upgrade our system we will continue to see these issues. We apologize for not being able to post this weeks message.

technical difficulties continue

2010-01-04T09:49:00.000-08:00

well folks, the "one time" technical issues appear to be continuing technical issues. We need an upgraded video camera and recording system in order to continue putting messages online.
I apologize for the problem - it is beyond my control and we do not currently have the funds to tackle this issue ($1,000 - $3,000 depending on the upgrade of the camera, recording device, etc.).
If you watch these videos please pray with us that God will provide the necessary equipment or finances needed to continue this extension of our mission - to help every person possible find real life through a relationship with Jesus Christ, whether they be in person at our facility or hundreds of miles away via video.

God's best to you in 2010!

If you watch these videos and would like to help us replace/upgrade our video recording system so you and others can continue to hear God's Word shared plain and honest for everyday life you can do so through our paypal site here (you do NOT need to be a paypal user).

Whiat Child is This - Week 3

2009-12-31T11:35:00.000-08:00

technical difficulties with the worn out and soooo not up-to-date video camera, etc. Sorry folks. You won't see this one.

What Child is This - Week 2

2009-12-29T14:35:00.000-08:00

What Child is This continues as we look at the child who tested the resolve of Joseph and Mary. Maybe God has asked something difficult of you? Did you give up when it got rough? Joseph and Mary may have lost their family and friends because of this baby... we know they lost their home and the comfort of the familiar at the end of her pregnancy. Just because God asks something of you doesn't mean He's going to make your life perfect - do you have what it takes to keep going when the going gets tough?

Christmas 2009 - What Child is This - week 1

2009-12-11T08:50:00.000-08:00

What Child is This? That question is still being asked today. It was asked by the shepherds... what child is this whose birth is announced to us? It was asked by the Easter Astrologers... what child is this who commands the stars to announce his arrival? It was asked by the owners of the stable... what child is this who is born in a stable and laid in the hay? It was asked by Joseph and Mary... what child is this that God announces and then forgets about? What Child is This that changed the course of humanity? That set the religious on edge and stirred something deep and powerful within those who had been shunned and forgotten... this is the Son of God. And He's still changing lives today.

Technical note: due to some technical difficulties the complete message was unable to be recorded. We apologize for the inconvenience.

The ending point was this: if you are feeling average, insignificant or just plain down, you are exactly the kind of person God is looking for! He loves to use those who have been discarded by the world to accomplish great things for His Kingdom! What the world perceives as insignificant (a baby born in a stable) God sees as life changing! What the world thinks is average (a carpenter and an unwed pregnant lady) God uses for extraordinary purposes!

Unexpected 4 - Unexpected Forgiveness

2009-11-20T10:04:00.000-08:00

You know what you'll get when you walk into church. Stares. Fingers pointing. Not-so-hushed comments. That's what you expect. You've even said, "if I ever walked into a church the ceiling would collapse." But what if you're wrong? What if what you found, instead of condemnation, was forgivness? What if what you found was unexpected...

Unexpected 3 - Unexpected Option

2009-11-08T14:55:00.000-08:00

How do I get to God? What does it take to get to heaven? Lots of people want to know, inquireing minds want to know. And there are lots of ideas. Some would say "go to church." Others would tell you to give them your money if you want to go to heaven. And still more might tell you to live a "moral" or "right" life, in order to get to heaven. But what if getting to heaven didn't have anything to do with what you do?

UnExpected - week 2 - Unexpected Message

2009-11-05T07:33:00.000-08:00

What do you expect from Church? Judgement? Condemnation? Guilt? We've all experienced those feelings, sometimes intentionally from others and sometimes from our own conscience. But what did those who deserved to be judged and condemned find when they encountered Jesus? I can assure you it wasn't what most find within the walls of a church. In this message we'll see what happens when Jesus encounters a woman with a lot of sin baggage and hear the unexpected message He delivers. It's the same message He wants YOU to hear! And the same message you'll find at Real Life.

UnExpected Connections

2009-10-30T16:22:00.000-07:00

For many years you and others have come to expect certain things from believers in Jesus - most of them are not the kind of things we would like to be known for. But if we take a look at the life of Jesus we would see that almost everything about His life and ministry was unexpected! He made unexpected connections with people the religious folks wouldn't even speak too! His message was unexpected - it was about hope and life and about the unexpected Love of the Father. Is there anything unexpected about Real Life? Or about the people who are a part of our team? Let's follow Jesus' example and be unexpected!

Practical Atheist - week 4

2009-10-11T12:27:00.000-07:00

2009-08-14T14:07:00.000-07:00

An angry king. Devastating drought. Epic opposition... and one man who overcomes it all. When the world around us is spinning out of control where do you turn? Elijah faced all this and more, but first he had to become a Man of God.

The PASSIONATE Warrior

2009-07-22T14:12:00.000-07:00

Corey brings the Warrior series home with the Passionate Warrior. Maybe you've found yourself in some of the previous messages, distracted, hesitant maybe even discovered a wound you'd tried to keep hidden. Today you can once again join the battle for spiritual freedom, engage your Heavenly post and re-discover the passion for Christ that once burned fierce within you.

The DISTRACTED Warrior... Huh?!

2009-07-21T13:06:00.001-07:00

In life we are bombarded with distractions, there are all kinds of distractions but they all have one purpose, to get our focus off the heavenly and on the earthly. The Warrior becomes distracted when he abandons his heavenly post in order to build his earthly kingdom - and it happens all the time. Even most necessary distractions can get us so sidetracked that we not only neglect our post but abandon other warriors as well. How can you keep from being distracted? Here's some tips.

Whoops!

2009-07-20T16:49:00.000-07:00

Hey all, just wanted to let you know that our video camera was not working on Sunday the 12th, I haven't been able to tape it. I have the 19th ready to go but want to put the 12th up first. So, as soon as I get the video I'll put up the 12th and then post the 19th sometime this week.

I hope you all enjoy what God is doing at Real Life!

the Wounded Warrior

2009-07-06T12:59:00.000-07:00

The warrior's wound comes from an unattentive or missing father figure. In this message you'll learn how to begin to heal the wound. You will also learn what a critical part you play in empowering the young warrior's in your own life.

The Hesitant Warrior

2009-06-28T14:03:00.000-07:00

Every great Warrior hero is faced with that critical moment of hesitance where he must decide if he has what it takes. When a warrior's fear of failure exceeds his faith in God, he becomes a hesitant warrior. In this message it comes down to two things every warrior must remember when faced with his critical moment. You have what it takes... YOU are a warrior.

The Warrior's Cause

2009-06-23T19:51:00.001-07:00

Every Warrior needs a cause to fight for, otherwise there is no reason to fight and you might just find yourself fighting against the wrong thing. You know the song, "you've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything." God needs men, real men, who will stand up for their faith, their families and their right to be the spiritual head of their homes. What is your cause? What are you willing to die for?

Take a Vow to Pursuit

2009-06-16T17:08:00.000-07:00

What are you pursuing with your life? It may not be what you "say" it is, but what you actually pursue by your actions. Elijah was a man "just like us" (james 5:17) who pursued God and accomplished extraordinary things. You and I have that ability too, if we take a vow to pursue.

Take a Vow to PARTNERSHIP

2009-06-08T18:16:00.000-07:00

Life is easier when you do it with others. Life is easier with Jesus. Life is easier (at least sometimes) with a spouse. Life is easier when you're connected and partnered with other believers in His church. Maybe it's time for you to say yes to Jesus and say yes to His church.

Take A Vow to PURITY

2009-05-31T19:39:00.000-07:00

So often today Christians have assumed a less than holy, or pure relationship to our HOLY God. We have forgotten the first three commandments in our dealings with God. It's time to take a vow to purity in our approach to God.

Take a Vow to Priority

2009-05-24T16:10:00.000-07:00

For so many christians God and church are simply something we "do" each week for an hour or so... but how do we make God a priority in our life - giving Him first place? In this message and the conversation with Lee and Tina Svanda we'll look at ways to make God a priority.

Kaleo to Disciple Making

2009-05-22T08:16:00.000-07:00

Kaleo means Called. And as a believer you have been called by God to make disciples. But before you get all worked up... maybe you should listen to this message on what that means and how it can be done.

Kaleo to Service

2009-05-22T07:41:00.000-07:00

Kaleo means Called. And as a believer you have been called by God to follow the example of Christ in your life. Since Jesus' life was one of service we too should make serving others a priority in our lives.

Kaleo to Generosity (it's not what you think)

2009-05-22T06:55:00.000-07:00

Kaleo means Called. And as a believer you have been called by God to be generous with your finances, talents and even your life. In this message Corey will be discussing areas where our generosity in life can make a huge investment in the lives of others.

Kaleo to Community

2009-05-22T06:33:00.000-07:00

Kaleo means Called. And as a believer you have been called by God to live in community with other believers. In this message we'll discover some of the benefits of this community and why you and I should be connected in community.
