In short, Memorial is a Gospel-Centered Church that believes Jesus is everything and through faith/belief/trust in Jesus we pursue following Him together as one family. We believe that God places His people together in the context of a local body of believers (His church), not by accident, but for the Spirit-empowered purpose of glorifying Him through repenting and believing the Gospel of His son, Jesus Christ. Through His church we see His kingdom come and His will being done as He makes all creation right and new. In all we do we seek to worship the Lord passionately, connect with each other authentically, grow to know the Lord deeply, and go and share the gospel boldly as One Body in Christ.

Temptation in the Flesh: Disciplining Our Bodies for God's Glory
Sunday Mar 02, 2025
Sunday Mar 02, 2025
Our natural desires—hunger, rest, pleasure—are God-given, yet sin twists them into appetites that can lead us away from Him. We are either mastered by our desires or mastering them through Christ.
🔥 In this message, Pastor Nathan unpacks:
✅ Why our flesh is not inherently evil, but fallen (1 Cor. 10:1-14, Jer. 17:9)
✅ How Jesus' victory in the flesh changes how we handle temptation
✅ The danger of unchecked appetites and their spiritual consequences
✅ How spiritual disciplines train us to glorify God in both spirit & body
✅ Why all of life is spiritual—not just "church things" (1 Cor. 10:31)
📖 Key Scriptures:
➡️ 1 Corinthians 10:13 – "No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it."
➡️ John 6:63 – "It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh is no help at all."
➡️ Phil 3:19-20 – "Their end is destruction, their god is their belly, and they glory in their shame, with minds set on earthly things. 20 But our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ..."
