“If you are going to talk the talk, you had better walk the walk.” That phrase has been used in many arenas and the basic ideas is that the way you talk about your life, or you playing abilities, or you business acumen, or your academic skills had better be backed up by how you live, play, do business, or perform in the classroom. The book of James in the New Testament essentially says the same thing. It is not enough to say you have faith, you need to show it by your actions. This Fall at Pleasant Hill Community Church, Pastor Scott will lead us through a study in the book of James. Together we will learn what it means in practical ways to live what we say we believe.
Sermons
Adjusting Our Perspective (James 1:9-18)
Navigating difficult times in our lives can be managed as we learn to have the right perspective. We have learned to have an attitude of joy because of what we know to be true (James 1:3-8). As James develops this thought he reminds us that we need to be dependent upon God, not our wealth. We need to be very honest with ourselves regarding our possible role in the difficulty. We need to remember God is the giver of good things, even when they come through difficult circumstances.WatchNotesDownloadDateTitle

Faith Under Pressure (James 1:1-8)
We all face pressure. We all have struggles, or tests, or trials that come into our lives which are hard. It is at these times when our faith in God’s presence, or His ability, or His care are called into question. As we begin a Fall study in the book of James we discover that learning to live what we say we believe is often put to the test. We will discover that we can weather the storms of life when we have the long view in mind and when we by faith seek God’s guidance step by step. It is not easy, it is not without pain and struggle, but it will make us stronger. - Sep 1, 2019Created for Purpose (Genesis 1:26-28; 2:15)
Created for Purpose (Genesis 1:26-28; 2:15)
Why are we here? Many of us have at one time or another wondered either out loud or in the depths of our own minds. The simple answer is we are here because God created us. But maybe the question that is really being asked is “What is my purpose?” We want to know that we matter, that we can make a difference, that we have purpose. Click on the link below to hear Pastor Scott's Labor Day Sunday Sermon. Consider that we are here for a purpose and believe it or not that purpose involves understanding God’s creation of work. - Aug 25, 2019What Wisdom Looks Like (Proverbs 31:10-31)
What Wisdom Looks Like (Proverbs 31:10-31)
All too often the epilogue of the book of Proverbs is reserved for Mother’s Day sermons. However, we need to look at these last 22 verses of Proverbs from the standpoint of the whole book, that being wisdom. Since wisdom is personified as a woman in the early parts of Proverbs, it stands to reason that this last chapter also speaks more of wisdom than an impossible “to do list” for a wife. When we see it as a metaphor, Proverbs 31:10-31 has a powerful message for all of us. - Aug 18, 2019The Wisdom of Honesty
The Wisdom of Honesty
We live in a culture in which truth is not always held in high esteem. Fact checking seems to be the norm when anyone of note speaks or writes. Plausible deniability is valued, statistics are manipulated, and advertisers only tell you enough to make a sale. If everyone is playing loose with the truth, why should we be different? In this sermon we consider the wisdom of honesty. - Aug 11, 2019Wise Leadership
Wise Leadership
Leadership is a topic that has been researched, written about, analyzed, evaluated, and critiqued. We are in the throes of spending the 15 months hearing people tell us why they should be in leadership positions. In this study of Proverbs we will look at the characteristics of leadership as defined by wisdom. Each of us in one way shape or form is a leader and we should each evaluate our own lives in light of what we will see in this review. - Aug 4, 2019Wise Friendships
Wise Friendships
Research continues to show that while we are more connected than ever, we are also growing lonelier. People, by and large, have many acquaintances but few real friendships. Could it be that we need to revisit what it means to have friendships based on wisdom? We will look at some principles of a wise friendship and work to evaluate not just our friends, but also ourselves. Am I the kind of friend to others that I want them to be to me? - Jul 28, 2019Parenting With Wisdom
Parenting With Wisdom
How many times have you heard that being a parent does not come with an instruction manual? Guess what? There is a manual. It takes some time to read it. It takes some thought to apply it. But we have some guidelines in the book of Proverbs that guide us in rearing our children. We will look at some key principles today. As a church family we can all be part of helping and guiding parents as we model the wisdom that comes from the fear of the Lord. - Jul 21, 2019A Wisdom Based Marriage
A Wisdom Based Marriage
God created marriage. A wise marriage as described in Proverbs is characterized by partnership, peace, and pleasure. We will look at how those three characteristics are not just ideals, but can be realities in any marriage. In fact they are also characteristics of a good friendship as well. - Jul 14, 2019The Wisdom of Generosity
The Wisdom of Generosity
Generosity. Most of us if asked would define ourselves as generous. But what limits have we put on our generosity? To whom are we generous? Is there room for one more in our home, or two, or three, tonight? Who has permission to "raid" your fridge? Would you loan your car to a neighbor? Often times we will respond to those questions with comments about being responsible etc. There is great wisdom, and great refreshment, and great benefit to being generous. It requires great faith to be generous.
Our Purpose
Our Mission: Loving God and Loving Others as Together we Follow Jesus Christ.
Pleasant Hill Community church was established to serve our community.
The Bible says in I Peter 4:10-11
Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms. If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ.
Together we are working to:
Proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ.
Honor God in ALL We Do.
Connect in Relationship.
Care for the Needs of Our Community.
PHCC MINISTRIES
We endeavor to minister to the whole family. We begin as early as possible to teach children about God who loves them. We seek to apply the lessons of the Bible to each age group in age appropriate ways. Our childcare workers and volunteers are screened so that we do our best to provide a safe and secure learning environment. We also offer ministry to Middle School and High School Students. We involve all ages in our adult ministry.

Missions
We view missions as a major ministry of Pleasant Hill Community Church. The vision and goal of Missons is to carry out the command of Christ’s Great Commission as we partner with individuals and agencies to make disciples of all nations.Matthew 28:19-20 (NIV)
“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
PHCC currently partners with 12 Missionaries and their families worldwide. We have a primary focus to raise up individuals from our own congregation to be active in making disciples globally. To that end 5 of our 12 Missionary families have formative roots in our church. We also partner with two local organizations, Life Spring Women’s Ministry in Aurora, IL and World Relief DuPage/Aurora.. below are the mission organizations with whom we are ministry partners and links to their web sites.
