Meet Jesus

by

My 6/7/15AM Sermon, Meet Jesus from 1 John 1:1-4, is now online.  On top of serving as an introduction to the series as a whole, this sermon helped move us to know that we have eternal life by showing how the message about Jesus leads to fellowship and joy.  I hope you’ll listen and I hope it’s helpful.

HomeWord Series in Complete

by

I just finished up, on Sunday mornings, a short series on God-centered marriage and family relationships.  I entitled this HomeWord.  As you can see in our graphic, the home’s foundation is on God’s Word and the overall trajectory is upward to glorify God.

This series, in particular, involved 4 sermons.  Most of them were unpacking some truth from Genesis 1-3.  The final sermon was from James 4:1-10.  Here’s a link to the series and to each sermon:
I hope you enjoy these and they help equip you for your life ahead.  

Weekend Recap – 3/29/15

by

My 3/29/15AM sermon, The Good Shepherd from John 10:11-18, is now online.  This sermon proved to be a great text for Palm Sunday as seeing that the Good Shepherd lays down His life for the sheep is such a profound truth in the section of Scripture.  Holy Week builds to Jesus’ death and resurrection and these themes easily emerged from Jesus’ own description of what He came to do.  I hope this sermon encourages you, as well.

Weekend Recap – 3/1/15

My 3/1/15AM sermon, Introduction to the I Am’s from John 20:30-31 is now online.  This sermon introduced a sermon series our church is pursuing through the Easter season on the 7 I Am’s of Jesus in John’s Gospel.  Here’s a helpful chart overviewing where we’re headed:

My hope through this sermon was to help people connect to John’s purpose: that we may see Christ and believing in Him, we may have life in His name.  Hope you have a great Sunday.

Weekend Recap – 2/8/15

by

My 2/8/15AM sermon, Scripture in Romans, is now online (Small Group Questions here).  In this sermon, I seek to unpack how we are led to understand the Bible fitting together as Romans handles all kinds of OT references and quotes.  Typically, at the start of the year, we begin with a sermon related to prayer and then a sermon related to the importance of God’s Word (our Elders feel these are important rhythms for us).  So, this sermon is there to help us draw near to God through His Word, encouraging a love for the Scriptures.  Hope you enjoy it.

Weekend Recap – 1/25/15

by

My 1/25/15AM sermon, Benediction from Romans 16:25-27, is now online (Small Group Questions are available too).  This sermon brought to an end my year long preaching through the book of Romans.  It was certainly a joy to do this.  This sermon, in particular, helped show how the aim of everything God’s done through the Gospel is for His glory.  I hope it encourages you in your life.

Weekend Recap – Gospel Watchfulness

by

My 1/11/15AM sermon, Gospel Watchfulness from Romans 16:17-20 (including Small Group Questions) is now online.   The sermon sought to unpack the call to look out and avoid those who cause divisions by abandoning the Gospel.  This should be done with wisdom and in light of the sure victory that will be ours through Jesus.  I hope it encourages you as you seek to live a life centered on the Gospel (or if you need more information on what makes the Gospel so amazing).
