The Difference between Amazement and Faith: Paul Tripp sermon recap

This month, Dr. Paul David Tripp was gracious to come and teach Mars Hill for the first sermon in our Best Sermon Ever series. He preached the sermon “The Difference between Amazement and Faith” out of Mark 6:45–52, the story of Jesus walking on water.

  • God will take you where you haven’t chosen to go in order to produce in you what you could not achieve on your own.
  • Faith is not just something you do with your brain; faith is the way that you live your life.
  • Sometimes you need the storm in order to see God’s glory.
  • Often, this side of eternity, the grace of God comes to us in uncomfortable forms.
  • We serve a dissatisfied Redeemer. He will not abandon his work. He will not stop what he has begun until every microbe of sin is delivered from every cell of every heart of every one of his children. He’s a dissatisfied Redeemer. His dissatisfaction is, in fact, your hope.

It's All About Jesus

Jesus was a man who claimed to be God. Think on that for a minute. If that were true, how would it change the way you thought, felt, and lived this life?

At Mars Hill, we believe that Jesus is God. We take him at his word. Because of this, everything we do is all about Jesus. We invite you to learn more about this man who is God and how you can find forgiveness and new life in him.

We value community

Church is more than a service. It’s people living life together and helping one another throughout our cities to serve our cities. Each week, thousands of people at Mars Hill meet in hundreds of small communities to learn about God, pray, eat, laugh, and live. We call these Community Groups—and they’re the heart of our church.

Jesus is the most generous person who ever lived. He gave his life so that we might live. As Christians, we give our time, talent, and money joyfully in response to Jesus’ generosity and to help more people meet Jesus.
