In a world awash with customizable “gods,” Isaiah calls us to behold the living God as He truly is—self-sufficient, singular, and utterly incomparable. From the span of the heavens to the rise and fall of princes, God alone creates, governs, and sustains all things. And in His kindness, this Holy One gives strength to the weary who wait on Him. God is self-sufficient: He has life in Himself and needs nothing (cf. Isa 40:12, 21–22). God is singular: To whom will we liken Him? Idols—ancient or modern—cannot compare (Isa 40:18–20, 25–26). God is simple (not made of parts): The one, pure Spirit who later reveals the fullness of His triune life without division.

In this closing passage of Galatians, Paul draws a bold line around what matters most: there is one Gospel, one reason to boast, and one new creation. We're called to steward the Gospel—proclaiming it to the world and applying it to our hearts—because others before us held the line so we could hear it today.  

In this powerful exploration of Galatians 6:6-10, we delve into the profound concept of 'Household Principles' within the family of God. The central message revolves around four key principles: support, sowing and reaping, faithfulness, and priority. We're reminded that as members of God's household, we're called to support one another, especially those who teach us God's word. This mutual support isn't just about financial provision, but about preserving the gospel and protecting the flock from false teachings. The principle of sowing and reaping is emphasized, reminding us that our actions have consequences - both in the physical and spiritual realms. We're encouraged to sow to the Spirit, remaining faithful even when we can't see immediate results. This message challenges us to examine our own lives and consider: Are we sowing seeds that will reap a harvest of righteousness? Are we supporting those who feed us spiritually? It's a call to live intentionally, knowing that our actions today are shaping our spiritual future.

The Fruit of the Spirit is the very character of Christ formed in us by the Spirit to stand against this present evil age. In Galatians 5:22-26, we learn why the fruit is one unified fruit (with many facets), how it wages war against the flesh, and how true freedom is found only as we belong to Christ and keep in step with the Spirit.

If you're in Christ, you are not doomed to live under sin's power. Paul calls us to “walk by the Spirit,” reminding us that the Spirit's presence and power secure real victory over the flesh. The battle is constant and obvious, but as we set our minds on the Spirit, we are transformed. This passage also brings a sober warning: a life given over to the works of the flesh will not inherit the kingdom of God. Today belongs to the Lord!

Paul tells the Galatians, “You were running well.” What happened? False teachers had added religious requirements that muted the offense of the cross. Paul warns that “a little leaven leavens the whole lump” and calls the church back to gospel clarity: we're saved by grace through Christ alone. Christian freedom isn't a license to indulge the flesh; it's power to love and serve one another. The whole law is fulfilled in this: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”

In Part 14 of our Galatians series, Pastor Josh Hildebrandt explores Paul's bold call to stand firm in the freedom Christ has secured. This message from Galatians 5:1–6 confronts legalism, reminds us of the cost of grace, and points us back to the heart of saving faith: Jesus Christ and His finished work.

Paul asks the Galatians why they want the law's yoke when Scripture itself points to freedom in Christ. Using Hagar and Sarah, he shows two ways to live: slavery through human effort or freedom through God's promise. Believers are “children of promise,” citizens of the Jerusalem above, called to expect opposition yet cling to the gospel.

In this sermon, Don't Be Fooled Again, Paul's heartfelt plea in Galatians 4:8–22 calls believers to guard against trading the freedom found in Christ for the slavery of man-made religion. Drawing from the cosmic backdrop of Scripture—from Babel to the cross—Pastor Kyle shows how false teaching often comes cloaked in religious respectability, yet leads away from grace. Like a spiritual father, Paul warns, weeps, and labors until “Christ is formed” in his hearers.

In this sermon from Galatians 4:1–7, we discover the life-changing reality of the gospel: We are no longer slaves, but sons and heirs through Christ.At the perfect time, God sent His Son to redeem us from the law, and His Spirit to remind us of our adoption. This passage takes us from spiritual slavery to sonship, showing us the depth of God's grace and the assurance we have in Him.

In this sermon, Pastor Josh Hildebrandt explores the watershed moment Paul describes in Galatians 3—“But now faith has come.” What does this mean for us?1. Faith Personified: Faith isn't abstract power—it's trust in a person, Jesus Christ.2. The Law Personified: The law served as our guardian, pointing to our need for grace.3. Faith Applied: In Christ, we are sealed as sons, shaped into a new humanity, and secured as heirs of the promise.Join us as we celebrate the beauty of being united to Christ by faith alone.

In this sermon from our No Other Gospel series, Pastor Josh Hildebrandt unpacks Galatians 3:15–22, reminding us that the gospel is rooted in a promise, not performance. God's covenant with Abraham is unbreakable, particular in Christ, and overflowing with grace and mercy. The law reveals our sin, but only the promise of God in Jesus brings life.

In this message, we examine Paul's argument that justification is by faith in Christ alone, not by works of the law. Galatians 2:15–21 stands as a verdict of grace: we are declared righteous not by our own effort, but by union with Christ, who loved us and gave Himself for us. The sermon exposes the futility of self-justification and calls the church to rest in the finished work of Jesus. The cross is the center of Christian identity, and the grace of God as the only ground for hope and transformation.

In this message, the preacher unfolds the grand narrative of redemption found in Galatians 3:7–14, showing how the gospel is not just a story among many, but the sufficient and final word for God's people. The text draws a sharp line between the curse of self-reliance and the blessing of faith in Christ. We are reminded that all who rely on works of the law are under a curse, but Christ became a curse for us, so that, by faith, we receive the promised Spirit.

When the gospel is clear, unity follows. In Galatians 2:1–10, Paul stands his ground in Jerusalem, refusing to let anything add to Christ or divide His church. Pastor Josh Hildebrandt walks through this crucial moment, showing why gospel unity is not a side issue but the heart of Christian mission. Grace alone saves and shapes us, making one people from many backgrounds.

In this powerful sermon from Galatians 1:11-24, Pastor Tyler unpacks Paul's testimony to highlight the divine origin of the gospel, his radical transformation by God's grace, and the purpose of every transformed life, to glorify God.

In this powerful opening to our Galatians series, Pastor Josh lays out the urgent and unshakable foundation of the Gospel. Through Paul's greeting, we see the authority of God's message, rooted not in man but in Christ Himself, and the theology of grace that delivers us from this present evil age.

In this message, Pastor Terry takes us through the covenant ceremony at Mount Sinai, a critical moment in redemptive history that highlights the difference between a law covenant based on obedience and the gospel covenant based on grace.We see how God's people were called to worship Him, yet only Moses could draw near. Through Moses' mediation and the blood of sacrifices, God ratified His covenant with Israel—a covenant they would eventually break. But in Christ, we're invited to draw near with confidence. His blood secures an unbreakable, gospel-based covenant that transforms both our relationship with God and our communion with one another.

In this powerful conclusion to the Gospel of Luke, Pastor Chad preaches “A Certain Story: Christ Risen and Ascended.” Jesus appears to His disciples in a locked room, offering peace and proof of His bodily resurrection. He eats, teaches, and commissions them—then ascends in glory. This sermon reminds us that Jesus is not only alive, but reigning. And because He is risen and ascended, we can have certainty—about our forgiveness, our future, and our calling to proclaim the good news.

In this sermon, we walk with the two disciples on the road to Emmaus and witness the beauty of Christ's patient love. Even in their doubt and disappointment, Jesus draws near. Through the Word and fellowship, He opens their eyes to see that all of Scripture points to Him.

This Easter sermon, Wasted, Remembered, Believed, unpacks the powerful resurrection account in Luke 24:1-12. Pastor Joshua reflects on the women who came to the tomb with spices for a dead body, only to find it empty. What they thought was wasted effort became the foundation of their faith, as they remembered Jesus' words and believed.

In this sermon, Pastor Josh takes us into a moment we often overlook—the burial of Jesus. But in this quiet moment of the Gospel, we see three profound truths:1. Proof: Jesus truly died, verified by Roman execution and confirmed by the grave.2. Providence: Every detail—from Joseph of Arimathea's bold request to the perfectly timed Sabbath rest—was orchestrated by God.3. Proclamation: Even in death, Jesus declares His lordship, proclaiming victory over sin and the grave.

The Cross calls us to: follow Christ's example, deny ourselves, bear our cross daily—and live through dying.

The Cross secures victory: conquering sin, canceling shame, and crushing Satan—and by faith, we now share in Christ's victory.

The cross breaks the curse: creation groaned beneath it, the law bound us to it—and Christ became it for us.

The cross is the center of the Christian faith, where God's love and justice meet in perfect harmony. In this sermon, we explore why the cross was necessary—how God's love compelled Him to move toward sinners and how His justice demanded a perfect sacrifice. Through Romans 3:23-26, we see that Christ's death was not just an act of love but a demonstration of God's righteousness, ensuring that He remains both just and the justifier. Join us as we linger at the foot of the cross and marvel at the wisdom and power of God displayed in the sacrifice of Jesus.

In this sermon, we behold the transformational power of Christ Crucified—the heart of the historic Christian faith. As we walk through Luke 22:63-23:25, we witness Jesus, the Suffering Servant, who endures the agony of the cross, and the Sufficient Sacrifice, who atones for the sins of His people.In a world that often seeks power, wisdom, and eloquence, we are reminded that true hope is found in Christ alone—crucified for sinners, victorious over death.

The most unjust trial in history—Jesus, the sinless Son of God, condemned in the place of sinners. In Luke 22:65–23:25, we see Christ endure betrayal, false accusations, and brutal suffering, all so that the guilty might be spared. This is the heart of the Gospel: the innocent One takes the place of the guilty. Watch this powerful sermon and be reminded of the grace that saves.

The hour and power of darkness had come—Judas' betrayal, the disciples' desertion, Peter's denial. Yet even in the bleakest moment, Christ remained faithful, walking toward the cross for our salvation. This sermon from Luke 22:47-62 reminds us that though darkness comes, it never overcomes the light of Christ. Watch now and be encouraged in the victory of our Savior!

In the Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus faced unimaginable agony as He prepared to drink the cup of God's wrath. While His disciples slept, He prayed in perfect obedience, surrendering to the Father's will. What does this moment teach us about prayer, suffering, and our need for a Savior? Watch this sermon from Luke 22:39-46 and be encouraged to wake up, pray, and trust in Christ's finished work.

In this sermon, Pastor Josh explores the stark contrast between the disciples' prideful ambitions and Jesus' humble service. As the cross draws near, Jesus redefines greatness through sacrificial love and intercession, even for those who would deny Him. Be encouraged to embrace the call to servanthood and find hope in Christ's unshakable prayers for us.

In today's sermon, Pastor Josh Hildebrandt delves into Jesus' parable in Luke 19, revealing the reality of a coming unshakable kingdom. The nobleman's journey illustrates Jesus' call to stewardship, responsibility, and anticipation of His return. As faithful servants, we're entrusted with the gospel—an invitation to live in alignment with His purpose, using our gifts to expand His kingdom. Pastor Josh reminds us that while we await Christ's return, we face a choice: to faithfully invest in His work or risk missing the joy of obedience.

In today's sermon, Pastor Josh Hildebrandt explores Luke 18:35-43, illustrating the journey from blindness to sight through the story of a blind man who, despite being silenced by the crowd, cries out to Jesus and receives both sight and salvation. Through this powerful account, we learn about the persistence needed to truly “see” Jesus and the profound transformation that occurs when we do. This message challenges us to consider how we view Christ and whether we recognize His call in our lives.

In today's sermon, Pastor Chad Williams explored the promises of God in relation to the plan of salvation revealed through Jesus. Although following Jesus may require sacrifice and hardship, the blessings and fulfillment found in Him far outweigh any loss we face.

In this sermon from Luke 18:9-14, Pastor Josh Hildebrandt explores the powerful parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector. Through this story, Jesus teaches about the dangers of self-righteousness and the importance of humble repentance before God. The Pharisee, confident in his own moral standing, prays with pride, while the tax collector, deeply aware of his sin, pleads for mercy. Pastor Josh challenges us to reflect on our own hearts, warning against the trap of comparative righteousness and pointing us to the saving grace found in Christ alone.

In this sermon, Pastor Chad discusses the importance of persistent prayer from Luke 18:1-8.
