The Apostle Paul’s second letter to the Corinthians reveals not only his deepest struggles but also the central truth that God’s power is made perfect in weakness. In a world where the church’s credibility is often questioned, Paul offers a radically different vision of leadership—one marked by authenticity, humility, and shared vulnerability. Through suffering, we discover God’s comfort and are called to become “wounded healers” who bring hope to others. Listen to this sermon as Jason Harris unpacks how Paul’s message speaks powerfully into our own credibility crisis and shows us the transformative power of the gospel in the midst of suffering.   Sign up for Central’s newsletters here.

Saul’s story on the road to Damascus reminds us that no one is beyond the reach of God’s transforming grace. What begins in violence and hatred is turned into a witness of mercy, showing that Jesus meets us in our blindness and opens our eyes to new life. This is a family story that tells us who we are and how we got here—people redeemed by a love we could never earn. Listen to this sermon as Rev. Aaron Baker unpacks how God’s inscrutable grace offers hope, forgiveness, and renewal for us all. ________ Sign up for Central’s newsletters here. Visit us on our website to learn more.

God takes what the world sees as broken and transforms it into something beautiful, just as Michelangelo saw David hidden in flawed marble.

God’s redeeming work reshapes us to be witnesses of His glory in a world longing for hope. Listen to this sermon as Rev. Michael Davis explores how to live as a witness of the one true God. ________ Sign up for Central’s newsletters here. Visit us on our website to learn more.

Isaiah 6 is often quoted as an example of a willing servant of God expressing eagerness to be on mission for him. What can be overlooked, however, is the fact that God is calling Isaiah to an extremely difficult task, and Isaiah’s willingness to go comes less from a place of excitement and more from a place of experiencing the weightiness, superlativeness, and supremacy of God. Listen to this sermon from Rev. Andrew Smith as we consider how the motivation for going comes not from the mission but from the One who sends. ________ Sign up for Central’s newsletters here.

We often hear mention of the “glory of God,” but what exactly is it? Glory has much to do with fame, honor, and renown, but even more specifically, the glory of God relates to his majesty, his power, and his rule as the true King. So what a marvelous truth it is that God doesn’t just reveal his glory to us; he shares it with us! Listen to this sermon as we consider our future glory and how even the deepest suffering we experience on this earth doesn’t begin to compare to the weight of it. ________ Sign up for Central’s newsletters here.

When we embrace the salvation Jesus offers us, that brings with it a number of new realities, not the least of which is the spirit of adoption from God. We become not just heirs of God’s Kingdom but beloved children, upon whom he delights to bestow every blessing of inheritance. Listen to this sermon as we consider our position as sons and daughters of God, and how that motivates us to put to death our sin, bringing it to the gospel. ________ Sign up for Central’s newsletters here.
