My 7/17/16AM sermon from Crestview entitled Is This The Christ from John 7:25-52 is now online. This sermon sought to answer that question. Another feature of this amazing passage was Jesus’s offer to come to Him and drink, that if we believe, then out of our lives would flow rivers of living water. I hope you engage with this sermon and it helps you progress in the way you live.
Weekend Preview – Living Water Can Be Yours
This coming Sunday, we will be continuing our work in John’s Gospel. In John 7:25-52, there’s a big question on the table: Can this man really be the Christ? In other words, can Jesus be the Promised One, the Messiah? So, this passage unpacks who Jesus is. It helps us see where He’s really from, the life He gives, and how we can judge Him rightly. I hope to see you there as we hear Jesus address the concerns of our heart: our lack of trust and belief in Him. See you Sunday.
Song of the Month – Psalm 23
This month, we’re teaching Stuart Townend’s Psalm 23 in our worship gathering:
This song also will help teach this song as we seek to memorize this passage out of the ESV. Here’s a printable design from Elizabeth Wood to help the text be visually stimulating.
Weekend Recap – Judging Jesus Rightly
My 7/10/16AM sermon, Judging Jesus Rightly out of John 7:1-24, is now online. This sermon helped us unpack Jesus’s command of John 7:24 — “Don’t judge by appearances, but judge rightly.” It’s a command. From Jesus. To Judge. And, this passage helps us judge Jesus rightly be helping us focus on God’s timing, helping us see that Jesus’s teaching is from God, and calling us to not judge based on appearances only but rightly. I hope this sermon helps you, as well.
Weekend Preview – Judging Rightly
Do you have a category for judging rightly? If you DON’T, then you have to do something with Jesus, who said, “Don’t judge by appearances, but judge with right judgment” (John 7:24). This coming Sunday, we’ll be exploring this “right judgment” out of John 7:1-24. I hope you’ll join us and see the amazing way we can be shaped by God’s Word, even if it’s very much out of step with the prevailing notions our world might offer.
See you then.
Weekend Recap – Day of Prayer
I tweeted about my amazing, terrific, horrible, awesome, and awe-inspiring day on Saturday:
This led me doing something I don’t do often, scrapping my sermon and humbly sharing my struggles with the people I love dearly. I called this a Day of Prayer. The first few minutes recap my story and it leads into some prayer points that I directed our congregation through:
Maybe this might serve you as a time to reflect on your relationship between you, God, others, our country, and Jesus Himself. I hope it profits you.
God and Country Crucified
I was back from vacation yesterday, 7/3/16, and during Sunday School, I showed this amazing sermon from Russell Moore, preached at the Village Church in Texas about a year ago. I hope it helps your exaltation of Jesus (and the humbling of your own soul) on this 4th of July.

Weekend Recap – Bread from Heaven
My 6/19/16AM sermon, Bread from Heaven out of John 6:41-71, is now online. This sermon unpacked what the big deal was in the controversy about Jesus being the bread from heaven. Specifically, it showed how the Spirit gives eternal life through Jesus–Jesus alone. I hope it encourages you. We also had a baby dedication and took the Lord’s Supper together. It all proved to be a great morning. Crestview’s VBS starts at 6:30PM on 6/19/16. Hope you have a great Lord’s Day.
Gospel Friday – Knowing Jesus
Christians have a tendency to mope about wondering if what they believe is legit (at least, this has been the tendency for many that I know). Sure, we all have those moments where we feel week. But, today, I want to remind you of some amazing truth: you know Jesus. This coming Sunday, we’ll talk about what it means to have Him. But, let me remind you of what your Savior says from Revelation 1:17-18…
Today, will you rest in this and allow the reality of Jesus to consume you? Have a great weekend.
Weekend Preview (2) – VBS and Confession
Yesterday, I mentioned some previews related to our Baby Dedication and my AM sermon. Today, I wanted to remind everyone that Crestview’s VBS begins this Sunday, 6/19/16, at 6:30PM. Lots of preparations are underway for this. And tonight, there’s a time to help everyone set things up at 6:30PM. We call this the VBS work night. If you’re able, you can start to get a feel for the theme and other information. We love the partnership with Lifeway to deliver a VBS that connects children to the Gospel.
Further, we are taking the Lord’s Supper this Sunday and will be using this confession of faith from Coram Deo Church in Omaha, NE.
(based on 1 Corinthians 15:1-6…)
We profess and affirm the good news
that we have received,
in which we stand,
and by which we are saved,
if we hold fast:
that Christ died for our sins
according to the Scriptures,
that he was buried,
that he was raised on the third day.
We believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God.
Jesus Christ is the first and the last, the beginning and the end;
that we have received,
in which we stand,
and by which we are saved,
if we hold fast:
that Christ died for our sins
according to the Scriptures,
that he was buried,
that he was raised on the third day.
We believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God.
Jesus Christ is the first and the last, the beginning and the end;
he is our Lord and our God.
We hope you can join us for an amazing day this coming Sunday.
