When Judas slipped out into the night to betray Jesus, a deep darkness settled over Jerusalem. Yet at that very moment, Jesus spoke of glory. How could betrayal, suffering, and a Roman cross reveal the brilliance of God's glory? In this passage we'll behold the ways God's glory shines brightest at Calvary. Come and see how the darkest night became the brightest dawn.

What does it really mean to follow Jesus? In the upper room, the Lord of glory stooped to wash dirty feet—including the feet of the very one who would betray Him. In this stunning act, Jesus gives us a picture of the life of loving service that should mark every disciple. Come and see why real blessing is found not in being served, but in serving others in the name of Christ.

In this passage, we gaze upon the beautiful account of Jesus washing the disciples' feet in John 13. Witness the Lord of the Universe humbly serving His disciples, just hours before His crucifixion. Discover how Jesus redefines leadership, showing that true greatness lies in serving others, not being served. Join us to learn about the radical example of our Servant King and the profound goal of Christian leadership.

Judas walked with Jesus, preached in His name, and sat at His table—yet he never truly trusted Him. In John 13:2, we see how an empty profession, a heart given to sin, and a door left open to the devil led to tragic betrayal. In this passage, we'll examine the life of Judas to ask: What does his fall teach us? How can we guard our hearts? And above all, how does his story magnify the mercy and majesty of Christ? Come ready to search your heart—and to see Jesus in all His saving grace.

The events of days 2 and 3 may not stand out as much as days 1 or 4 or 6, but they are gloriously wonderful events, in which God showed the might of His power. He's taking what He created ex nihilo- out of nothing- what was previously formless and void, and He's giving shape to it all. He's forming it. He's bringing order out of chaos. It's a great and powerful work to do that, and so we're going to look first at God's power this evening. And then second, we're going to look at several ways we see that it is God's prerogative to do whatsoever He desires with His creation. And that will carry us to the feet of Jesus.

As the cross draws near, Jesus gives one of His final public appeals: "Believe in the light, that you may become sons of light." In these urgent verses, we hear Christ's tender but solemn call—don't delay, come into the light while it still shines! We'll consider who the Son of Man is, why the cross was necessary, and how the light of the Gospel still drives out darkness today. Because Christ was lifted up, you don't have to remain in the shadows.

When some Greeks approached Philip with the simple but profound request, "Sir, we wish to see Jesus," they gave voice to the deepest longing of every human heart. This Sunday, we will consider the chief way God intends for us to see Jesus: as He is preached. We will look at what it means to preach Christ in His cross, His compassion, and His commands. Through faithful preaching, we behold Christ—not just to learn about Him, but to love, trust, and follow Him with all our hearts.
