As we close off 2025 and look toward the new year, we do not seek something new, but the ancient paths that lead to rest. We examine Jeremiah 6 and God’s call to Biblical orthodoxy, returning to sound doctrine through careful study of His Word. This leads to radical orthopathy—a profound transformation of the affections toward the things of God. The fruit of this transformation is evangelical orthopraxy: a sincere effort at obedience, rooted in grace when we fall short. The new year does not req...

As we conclude our Advent series, we examine the final theme of love and answer the question: Why is it a love like no other? We discuss how God’s love is the example, the standard for all other loves. It's also an expensive love, for it cost God His Son. Finally, we discuss how God’s love expiates believers from sin; it deals with the very thing that separates us from the love of God. During this holiday season, we celebrate God’s great gift of love through His Son, Jesus Christ.

In a world marked by apathy, Jesus calls His disciples to real joy. John 15:9 -11 shows that apathy begins where obedience ends, grows when we abide in ourselves, and dies when Christ’s joy fills us. Our culture reflects the fruit of apathy: weak men, moral confusion, collapsing families, and churches drifting toward comfort. Advent proclaims that joy has entered the darkness through Christ’s incarnation, obedience, sacrifice, resurrection, and reign. He invites apathetic hearts to awaken, abide...

As we celebrate the second week of Advent, we unpack the “peace” that Jesus brings with His first appearing. We see that it is a promised peace—foretold since the fall of man. We have seen that it is also a peculiar peace, in that it is undeserved yet still offered to sinful humanity. Finally, it is a present peace, one that is with us today even in the midst of trials. The peace that the advent of Christ brings is not the absence of problems, but His presence in the midst of them.

We will be exploring the unique nature of Christ's birth from Matthew 1:18-25 and Luke 1:46-55, and how Jesus' birth provides us with a hope like no other.

Continuing our mini-series on the armour of God, we turn to the remaining pieces that equip believers to stand firm against the cosmic powers of the enemy. To stand, we must take up the shield of faith, clinging to the truths and promises of God. We must be secured by the helmet of salvation, guarding our minds with the hope we have in our Savior. We are to be sharpened by the Word of God— not merely knowing it, but applying it. And finally, we are to supplicate for all the saints, strengthening...

In this mini-series, we unpack what it means to don the armor of God as we stand against the “cosmic powers” that rule this present age. In addition to setting the stage for this battlefield, this sermon explores the first three pieces of the armor of God: the belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, and the shoes made ready by the gospel of peace. We must be girded with the truth of God, guarded by His righteousness, and galvanized to share the gospel. As the people of God, we are calle...

In this sermon, we examine the Tenth Commandment: “You shall not covet.” This command reaches beyond actions to the desires of the heart. First, God calls us to protect our hearts, for coveting begins with misplaced desire and discontent. Second, we must practice gratitude, trusting God’s goodness and rejoicing in what He provides. Finally, we are to pursue heavenly treasures, setting our affections on Christ rather than the passing things of this world. True obedience flows from a heart content...

In this sermon, we examine the Ninth Commandment: “You shall not bear false witness.” As we unpack its meaning, we discover that this commandment applies to all our interactions with others. First, God calls His people to speak with honesty, accuracy, and fairness—never distorting the truth or judging without knowledge. Second, Christians must courageously uphold the truth in a world that suppresses it, defending what is right even when it is costly. Finally, God commands that our speech build u...

Continuing our series on the Ten Commandments, we now turn to the Eighth Commandment: “You shall not steal.” We saw that committing theft reveals a lack of willingness to work and a failure to trust in God’s providence, all the while coveting what is not ours. Therefore, to be faithful to this command, we must remember to work diligently, as Scripture calls us to do. We are also reminded to give generously—fighting the urge to take by choosing instead to bless others. Finally, we must trust the ...

Continuing our Ten Commandments series, this sermon focuses on the Seventh Commandment — the call not to commit adultery. As we unpacked this command, we saw that its scope extends far beyond marital fidelity; it reaches into the realm of the heart and the spiritual life. We discovered that fulfilling this command begins with seeking spiritual satisfaction in the Lord, for only He can curb the desires of the flesh. Secondly, we must slay every hint of sin, taking a radical and uncompromising app...

Continuing our study of the Ten Commandments, we turn to the Sixth Commandment: “You shall not murder.” We unpacked how this commandment not only forbids the unjust taking of life but also calls us to preserve and protect it. To truly fulfill this command, we must promote justice and support the rightful execution of God’s justice through lawful means. We must also guard our hearts against hatred, as Jesus elevates this commandment to address our inner motives, and encourages reconciliation. Fin...

As we continue our study of the Ten Commandments, we turn to God’s 4th command to keep the Sabbath day holy. To understand its relevance for Christians today, we first considered the pattern of the Sabbath, drawing from God’s own example in creation, where His rest points us to worship Him. Secondly, we examined the purpose of the Sabbath, recognizing it as a covenant sign that sets God’s people apart from the world. Finally, we reflected on the proclamation of the Sabbath, in that it points to ...

Continuing our study of the Ten Commandments, we now turn to the third commandment, where God warns us not to take His name in vain. In this sermon, we consider the common ways Christians break this command: first, by using profanity or cursing those made in the image of God; second, by committing perjury, making oaths before God or His Church but failing to keep them; and finally, by living like the Pharisees—professing to follow God while bearing His name, yet misrepresenting Him in both word ...

As we continue our study of the Ten Commandments, we now turn to the Second Commandment and God’s prohibition of idolatry. This command is not merely about avoiding graven images, but more importantly about how worship is to be offered to God. First, worship must be marked by reverence; recognizing God’s holiness prevents us from ascribing objects or idols to Him. Second, worship must not be shaped by our personal preferences, but by obedience to God’s prescribed way of worship. Finally, worship...

In this sermon, we examine the temptation of Jesus in Matthew 4 and learn from His example how to overcome the temptations we face in life. When we are tempted by the desires of the flesh, we must satisfy our souls with the Word of God. When we are tempted by the pride of life, we must secure our identity in the Lord. And when we are tempted by what we see, we must learn to seek the things of the Kingdom. In Christ, we not only find the perfect example of resistance but also the power to walk in...

As we conclude our study in the Old Testament, we turn to one final Christophany in Zechariah 3, which points to the day when God would redeem His people through His Servant. In this vision, the Angel of the LORD advocates for God’s people, acquits them of their sin, and clothes them in righteousness—all foreshadowing the work Christ would accomplish when He atoned for humanity’s sin. In this, we see God’s eternal character revealed through His work of redemption.

As we continue our series in the Old Testament, we come to the story of Samson’s parents and their encounter with the Angel of the LORD in Judges 13. We see how when they ask for His name, the Angel of the LORD replies that it is “wonderful,” invoking the idea that, by His very nature, God is beyond comprehension—indescribable in glory and majesty. Like Samson’s parents, we are meant to respond to this revelation with worship, and reverent fear. Yet this same wonder also invites us to place our ...

As we continue our series in the Old Testament, we discover why the LORD is considered the God of Peace. We look at the story of Gideon and how the LORD brings about peace in times of conflict and fear. We see how God brings peace by conferring mercy to sinners, then commissions His people to administer His peace in practical ways. Finally, He consecrates sinners, creating spiritual peace between Him and us. Peace is central to God’s character, and He invites us to find and receive His peace.

As we continue our study of Christophanies, we turn to Genesis 32—the story of Jacob and Esau. Here, God reveals Himself as the one who delivers, especially from fear. He often does this by disrupting our solitude, breaking our self-reliance, and drawing us into dependence on Him as He delivers us from sin. In Jacob’s struggle, we see that true deliverance begins when God lovingly breaks us in order to remake us.

What does it mean that God is a God of mercy? As we continue our series “God with Us,” we look at Abraham’s interaction with the Angel of the Lord regarding Sodom in Genesis 18 and 19. Here we see how this Christophany reveals God’s mercy toward sinful man. In particular, we see how mercy is God’s preference, as He chooses to show mercy over judgment. We also see how mercy is God’s prerogative, as He shows mercy to whom He will show mercy. Finally, we see how mercy is God’s promise to those who ...

What does it mean that God is a “God of seeing”? As we begin to study the various appearances of the “Angel of theLord” in the Old Testament, we start with the story of Hagar and explore what it means that God truly sees us. In Hagar’s story, we learn that God sees our suffering—even when it is caused by our own sin, which He also sees. Yet, despite this, God also sees our salvation, promising relief to all who repent and come to Him. God is with us because He sees us.

What kills passion for the things of God? What halts the momentum of the Gospel? What makes our worship lukewarm and doctrine stale? The answer is apathy. In this sermon we examine the consequences of apathy, and how to reignite passion for the things of God.

In this sermon we look at what the Apostle Paul meant when he says that “in the Lord your labor is not in vain.” We unpack how we are merely vessels—weak, imperfect, yet chosen by God to carry His work, and that through Christ’s finished work, we have the assured victory over sin and death. Because of this victory, every faithful act we do in the Lord has eternal value. Our labor is never wasted when it is done in Christ.
