September 28th, 2025 | Speaker: Jonathan Cleveland 2 Timothy 2:1-7 calls us to be strong in God's grace, endure challenges with perseverance, and invest in passing faith on to others.
Steve and Doug get back into the groove ... but not by listening to Madonna.
We are both sheep and shepherds—learning from others while also leading others toward Jesus. That's the heart of the legacy we are called to leave through multiplication. It's about faith that doesn't stop with us, but continues as we walk with someone else, speak biblical truth, and help them grow in godliness. When we live out this rhythm of multiplication, we leave behind a legacy of faith that lasts far beyond our own lives.

In this message from the Faithful Foundations series, Pastor John Murphy unpacks the first cry of the Reformation: Sola Scriptura—Scripture Alone. He shows why God's Word is sufficient, inspired, and authoritative, contrasting it with the dangers of adding to it or placing ourselves above it. From Luther's stand at the Diet of Worms to Paul's words in 2 Timothy 3, the call is clear: Scripture alone must anchor what we believe and how we live. More than information, it leads us to transformation as it points us to Christ.

2 Timothy 4:9-22Do your best to come to me soon. For Demas, in love with this present world, has deserted me and gone to Thessalonica. Crescens has gone to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia. Luke alone is with me. Get Mark and bring him with you, for he is very useful to me for ministry. Tychicus I have sent to Ephesus. When you come, bring the cloak that I left with Carpus at Troas, also the books, and above all the parchments. Alexander the coppersmith did me great harm; the Lord will repay him according to his deeds. Beware of him yourself, for he strongly opposed our message. At my first defense no one came to stand by me, but all deserted me. May it not be charged against them! But the Lord stood by me and strengthened me, so that through me the message might be fully proclaimed and all the Gentiles might hear it. So I was rescued from the lion's mouth. The Lord will rescue me from every evil deed and bring me safely into his heavenly kingdom. To him be the glory forever and ever. Amen.Greet Prisca and Aquila, and the household of Onesiphorus. Erastus remained at Corinth, and I left Trophimus, who was ill, at Miletus. Do your best to come before winter. Eubulus sends greetings to you, as do Pudens and Linus and Claudia and all the brothers.The Lord be with your spirit. Grace be with you.

Welcome to Sermon Brainwave! Join hosts Matt Skinner, Karoline Lewis, and Rolf Jacobson as they dive deep into the lectionary readings for the Eighteenth Sunday after Pentecost (October 12th, 2025). In this episode, we explore the powerful theme of unexpected faith through the story of Jesus healing ten men with a skin disease in Luke 17:11-19, where a Samaritan becomes the unlikely exemplar of gratitude and praise. The hosts connect this Gospel reading with the fascinating Old Testament story of Naaman the Syrian from 2 Kings 5, examining how healing and salvation come through unexpected people and surprising means. We also discuss Jeremiah's revolutionary letter to the Babylonian exiles, where the prophet gives the shocking advice to "seek the shalom of the city" - even Babylon - and the endurance theology found in 2 Timothy 2:8-15.

Should we love pleasure, or is doing so a sinful sign of the last days? John Piper contrasts loving pleasure for its own sake with loving pleasure in God.
Join hosts Rolf Jacobson, Karoline Lewis, and Matt Skinner for another engaging episode of Sermon Brainwave as they tackle the challenging texts for October 5th, 2025. In this episode, the hosts dive deep into Luke 17:5-10, exploring the disciples' request to "increase our faith" and Jesus' puzzling response about mustard seeds and mulberry trees. They grapple with the difficult connection between faith and obedience, and whether Jesus is redirecting or chastising his followers. The conversation takes a fascinating turn as Rolf introduces Habakkuk as perhaps the best biblical example of what faith truly means - not passive waiting, but active resistance and trust in God's vision even when the world seems to be falling apart. The hosts explore how "the righteous will live by faith" plays out in times of societal chaos and personal struggle. The episode also touches on Lamentations as a theology of witnessing suffering, 2 Timothy's emphasis on faithful endurance, and practical ways to incorporate lament into worship and preaching. Whether you're a preacher preparing for Sunday or someone interested in thoughtful biblical interpretation, this episode offers fresh insights into these challenging texts.

Pastor Josh continues our study by preaching on 2 Timothy 3:10-13.Study questions:Out of the 9 marks that Paul uses to describe his life, which do you resonate with the most and why?As you seek to live like Jesus, what trials have you personally come across in your life? In what ways has God shown His grace to you in those times?Paul says in vs 12 "Indeed, all who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted." What role does the local church play in preparing for and responding to persecution?Paul says in vs 13 "evil and imposters will go on from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived." How can you as a local church member play a part in identifying and combating these "imposters" that seek to infiltrate the church?

When Paul starts listing sins that define unbelievers in the last days, he leads with an example more heinous than the rest: unrighteous self-love.
“All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work.” (2 Timothy 3:16–17 NLT) Over the next few days, we’re going to address some frequently asked questions about the Christian faith. It’s likely that none of these questions will be new to you. You’ve probably heard them—or maybe even asked them yourself—more than once. I want to emphasize that these questions are valid. They often indicate a thoughtful approach to the Christian faith. But sometimes questions are nothing more than a smokescreen—a way of deflecting the truth of the gospel. They are excuses for not making a decision for Christ. With that in mind, let’s proceed. In Isaiah 1:18, God says, “Come now, and let us reason together” (NKJV). Christianity is a logical faith. It was only after I became a Christian that the world began to make sense to me. Prior to becoming a believer, I thought that mankind was basically good. And I really struggled with the horrible things that people did to people. But after I became a believer and discovered that the Bible teaches that mankind is sinful, I began to understand. I also discovered that God can change the human heart. Becoming a Christian doesn’t mean you have to check your brain at the door. Bring your questions, even the tough ones. Find out what God says in His Word. Of course, if we’re going to search for answers in God’s Word, we need to be able to trust it. So, our first question is: How do we know the Bible is true? We can point to its amazing origin. The Bible is actually sixty-six different books written over a span of 1,500 years by some forty different authors from every walk of life, including kings, peasants, philosophers, fishermen, poets, statesmen, and scholars. Yet every one of them wrote about the same theme, God’s redemption of mankind. Because God Himself directed their words. We can point to archaeology. For many years, scholars used archaeology to argue that the Bible was unreliable. They could find no evidence of certain names, places, and events mentioned in Scripture. As archaeologists uncover more and more of the ancient world, however, they are discovering that the Bible is quite accurate. We can point to prophecy, specifically prophecies about the Messiah. Jesus fulfilled many Old Testament prophecies—including being born of a virgin, being born in Bethlehem, and being crucified—centuries after the prophecies were made. Perhaps most importantly, we can point to what the Bible says about how to know God and how to live in these troubled, crazy times. It’s the only book that speaks with authority in this realm. And it’s the only book whose promises resonate deep within us. Ultimately, the best way to discover that the Bible is true is to experience its truths in your own life. Reflection question: How have you experienced the Bible truths in your own life?

Paul says the last days will be full of deceivers and difficulties. But why should that be so? John Piper offers six possible reasons.
