The Lord is Near - 11.30 Sermon
Today marks the beginning of a new church year and the season of Advent. In our sermon lesson for today, Paul gives us some commands that he claims apply in every situation: rejoice, and do not be anxious. But how can he command us to do things that seem so impossible? Those commands are rooted in a statement right in the middle of this text: The Lord is Near. And because of that, his presence shapes our priorities, and his peace guards our hearts and minds.
Thank God for What He Takes Away - 11.23 Sermon
This week we wrapped up our Cause & Effect series by looking at Luke 7, where we see the cause of our thanksgiving. We, like the woman in this story, are thankful because Jesus has taken away our sin. That is the greatest reason for thanksgiving, today and every day.
It's All Part of the Plan - 11.16 Sermon
Doesn't it sometimes seem like everything in this world is out of control, and everyone is losing their minds? Jesus warns us that in these last days before his return, it might look like that. But what looks like unplanned chaos is actually all part of God's plan. It's a plan Jesus prepares us for, and it's a plan we can trust.
Who is Like Our God? 11.9 Sermon
What do you do when you feel the weight of your guilt? Do you try to hide it? Do you try to explain it away? Do you try to make up for it? Micah encourages us in this lesson not to do any of those things, but instead to let God deal with our guilt for us. When he does, his grace will lead us to say with joy, "Who is like our God?"
The Truth Will Set You Free - 10.26 Sermon
This week we celebrated the Reformation as part of our service. The result of the Reformation was a renewed emphasis on the freedom we have in Christ. In John 8, we hear Jesus talk about that freedom. He tells us when we hold to his teaching, we know the truth, and the truth will set us free.
