Sermon Archives

In this message, we consider what we commonly call, “The Lord’s Prayer.” But, in truth, we should refer to it as, “The Disciples’ Prayer,” because it is Christ’s introduction to them regarding how they should pray.

In this message, we consider two very familiar Gospel incidents which should push us all to consider the balance between the temporal and the eternal, as well as what is good, better and best in our lives.

In this message, we hear some new marching orders for Christ’s extended band of disciples – made all the more important and more timely because He is only a few months from the Cross.

In this message, we launch a new sermon series entitled, “Journey to Jerusalem.” Luke’s Gospel has been continually forcing us to answer one question up until now: who is Jesus? But, from this point forward, Christ begins to focus relentlessly on His central task: dying on the Cross to redeem sinful mankind.

In this message, as we conclude our sermon series, “Ministry in Galilee,” we see a powerful contrast between the life salvation in Christ makes possible and what life in the here and now, in a fallen world, typically looks like, surrounded by sin, temptation, selfishness and pride.

In this message, we are reminded of the ultimate purpose of Luke’s Gospel. This written record is intended to help us answer the same question we will see posed to the disciples in this text: Who is this Jesus?

In this message, we consider a part of Christ’s personal ministry which we like to forget: not only does He save us and redeem us, but His salvation gives our life purpose. He is our source for authority and direction.

In this message, we continue to see the power of Christ, but we’re also forced to ask questions which still plague us: do we trust God’s timing? His sovereignty? His power, even when the clock is ticking and things look bleak?

In this message, we consider two powerful pictures – the stilling of the storm and the freeing of a demon-possessed man – which combine to remind us that Jesus has the power to free us from all kinds of fleshly and spiritual bondage.

In this message, we are again reminded that Jesus Christ came to free all of us from our sin – and we are much more likely to find that freedom if we are willing to humble ourselves, die to self-righteousness, and admit our need.

In this message, we see a spiritual giant wrestling with doubts and disappointment – a reminder that all of us, in our human frailty, will do the same at one time or another. But, thankfully, we also see how Jesus addresses this struggle in our hearts.

In this message, we have the privilege of hearing a message from God’s Word from Jay Ham, our Pastor of Global Mobilization.

In this message, we see a historical record of when our God met with real pain so we could all know and understand where God is when we, too, encounter crippling pain and suffering.

In this message, we again see Christ emphasizing His kingdom values – but this time by explicitly challenging His disciples in how they treat those they come in contact with on a daily basis. Christ’s kingdom values are very practical and personal.

In this message, we see Christ’s explicit call of the Twelve Disciples and the clear contrast between the values of His Kingdom and the values of the religious leaders standing opposed to His ministry.
