In this sermon, we explore the reality that we all want a king who exercises dominion, brings prosperity, and delivers his people.Every human being longs for the right kind of leadership and rule. When we experience good leadership, we want to follow. When we experience poor leadership, we lament and seek other guidance. Series Description: The Psalms are the song book of God's people, and each summer we mine their riches. Their imagery, poetry, and theology invite us to deeper worship of God and remind us of his unchanging character.

This is the fifth lesson in Dr. Camden Bucey's Reformed Academy course, Defending Our Hope: An Introduction to Christian Apologetics. What does it mean to be human? This lesson explores the doctrine of man, centered on the profound reality of being created in God's image. We discover how this divine image manifests in official, formal, and ethical dimensions, shaping our knowledge, dignity, and purpose. Through the lens of covenant theology and Reformed thought, we investigate humanity's original condition, the impact of sin, and the enduring significance of bearing God's image. This foundational understanding strengthens apologetics by illuminating the connection between believers and nonbelievers, affirming that all people exist coram Deo—in the presence of God.  02:24 The Point of Contact: The Image of God 08:47 The Image of God and Sin 19:11 Narrow and Broad Senses of the Image of God 27:20 The Image of God and Human Knowledge 35:51 Summary and Conclusion  Register for this free on-demand course on our website to track your progress, download supplemental resources, and assess your understanding through quizzes for each lesson.

In this sermon, we unpack what it means to be a people of hope. God's word gives us timely hope for various stages of life, culminating in the timeless hope of the resurrection.Some sort of hope drives every human being. It's core to our humanity. But is your hope strong enough to anchor you through all the seasons of life? Series Description: The Psalms are the song book of God's people, and each summer we mine their riches. Their imagery, poetry, and theology invite us to deeper worship of God and remind us of his unchanging character.

One can easily imagine the context inspiring David's words here. A good portion of his early days were spent on the run as a fugitive from King Saul. For years, due to this providential hardship, David was likely unable to participate in tabernacle worship.  Nevertheless, we hear his heart in this song as he prays that the Lord would count his prayer and praise as a legitimate incense offering.  Spurgeon writes of this song: “David's case seemed hopeless: the cause of God in Israel was as a dead thing, even as a skeleton broken, and rotten, and shoveled out of the grave, to return as dust to its dust. There seemed to be no life, no cohesion, no form, order, or headship among the godly party in Israel: Saul had demolished it, and scattered all its parts, so that it did not exist as an organized whole. David himself was like one of these dried bones, and the rest of the godly were in much the same condition.“ in the Providence of God, this occasion provides a Spirit inspired example of prayer in crisis. David demonstrates how to face trials unto the glory of God.

In this sermon, we explore the gift of desperation and how it can lead us into deeper intimacy and worship of God.As the saying goes, “desperate times call for desperate measures.” To be human is to experience moments of desperation. But in those moments, what do we do and where do we turn? Series Description: The Psalms are the song book of God's people, and each summer we mine their riches. Their imagery, poetry, and theology invite us to deeper worship of God and remind us of his unchanging character.

We've considered at length the contrasts illustrated in Proverbs 9 by way of a dinner invitation to Lady Wisdom's house vs. the meal served at the Woman Folly's place.  The first is a promise of provision unto eternal life, the second is a gateway to Sheol disguised as a party. Which table will you gather around for dinner? Choose carefully because this situation represents where you turn for provision, the company you keep, the ritual worship you practice, the covenant relationships you countenance, and the foretaste of eternity. The Apostle Paul picks up on this theme addressing issues and diagnosing the spiritual condition of the church in Corinth. He calls them to the repentance, fear, and faithfulness worthy of the table of the Lord.  This text couldn't be more relevant for our assembly today as we have gathered in this place to take communion and share a meal together

 39 And Mary rising up in those days, went into the hill country with haste into a city of Juda.Exsurgens autem Maria in diebus illis, abiit in montana cum festinatione, in civitatem Juda : 40 And she entered into the house of Zachary, and saluted Elizabeth.et intravit in domum Zachariae, et salutavit Elisabeth. 41 And it came to pass, that when Elizabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the infant leaped in her womb. And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost:Et factum est, ut audivit salutationem Mariae Elisabeth, exsultavit infans in utero ejus : et repleta est Spiritu Sancto Elisabeth : 42 And she cried out with a loud voice, and said: Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.et exclamavit voce magna, et dixit : Benedicta tu inter mulieres, et benedictus fructus ventris tui. 43 And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?Et unde hoc mihi, ut veniat mater Domini mei ad me? 44 For behold as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in my ears, the infant in my womb leaped for joy.Ecce enim ut facta est vox salutationis tuae in auribus meis, exsultavit in gaudio infans in utero meo. 45 And blessed art thou that hast believed, because those things shall be accomplished that were spoken to thee by the Lord.Et beata, quae credidisti, quoniam perficientur ea, quae dicta sunt tibi a Domino. 46 And Mary said: My soul doth magnify the Lord.Et ait Maria : Magnificat anima mea Dominum : 47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.et exsultavit spiritus meus in Deo salutari meo.

In this sermon, we explore some of the hindrances to resilience, and how the gospel of Jesus Christ empowers us for a life of resilience.If you're going to live a meaningful life, you need to cultivate resilience. But it's a quality that's elusive and increasingly rare in today's society. Loneliness and opposition can be major hindrances to a resilient life.

Wisdom is an indispensable virtue to the discipline of applying the Law of God.  The wise man seeks to understand all of life and thought in terms of the absolute moral order of God's Word & God's world. Wisdom equips the moral agent for the discipline of measuring all things by the standard of divine revelation. Taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ (II Cor 10:5) requires wisdom and discernment that comes by way of practice (Heb 5:14).  Diligently processing and applying the scriptures is an ordinary means of the Spirit to equip saints for glorifying God in life & ministry. Wisdom literature is an instruction manual for ‘casuistry'…The task of judging case by case situations by the universal standard of Biblical truth.  Proverbs contains hundreds of examples of God‘s law applied to various situations - or cases- in every day life.  The book of Proverbs along with all of scripture is a Just Weight by which to measure everything else.

 1 And when great multitudes stood about him, so that they trod one upon another, he began to say to his disciples: Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.Multis autem turbis circumstantibus, ita ut se invicem conculcarent, coepit dicere ad discipulos suos : Attendite a fermento pharisaeorum, quod est hypocrisis. 2 For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed: nor hidden, that shall not be known.Nihil autem opertum est, quod non reveletur : neque absconditum, quod non sciatur. 3 For whatsoever things you have spoken in darkness, shall be published in the light: and that which you have spoken in the ear in the chambers, shall be preached on the housetops.Quoniam quae in tenebris dixistis, in lumine dicentur : et quod in aurem locuti estis in cubiculis, praedicabitur in tectis. 4 And I say to you, my friends: Be not afraid of them who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.Dico autem vobis amicis meis : Ne terreamini ab his qui occidunt corpus, et post haec non habent amplius quid faciant. 5 But I will shew you whom you shall fear: fear ye him, who after he hath killed, hath power to cast into hell. Yea, I say to you, fear him.Ostendam autem vobis quem timeatis : timete eum qui, postquam occiderit, habet potestatem mittere in gehennam : ita dico vobis, hunc timete. 6 Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God?Nonne quinque passeres veneunt dipondio, et unus ex illis non est in oblivione coram Deo? 7 Yea, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: you are of more value than many sparrows.sed et capilli capitis vestri omnes numerati sunt. Nolite ergo timere : multis passeribus pluris estis vos. 8 And I say to you, Whosoever shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess before the angels of God.Dico autem vobis : Omnis quicumque confessus fuerit me coram hominibus, et Filius hominis confitebitur illum coram angelis Dei :These two brothers were officers under Constantius. After the death of the Chritian Emperor, they became martyrs at Rome in the persecution of Julian the Apostate, A.D. 362.

In this sermon, we explore how God's work in the past anchors God's people in the present.Every one of us is story-formed. We are shaped by what happens to us and by how we respond. But if we dwell only on our own stories, we can become self-focused and self-absorbed. Psalm 68 shows us the way out: we need a bigger story. The biblical writers ground us in God's story, showing how the narrative of redemption is more ancient, more familial, and more empowering than the alternatives.

Their imagery, poetry, and theology invite us to deeper worship of God and remind us of his unchanging character.

As we continue to familiarize ourselves with this great literary form of scripture otherwise foreign to us, let us pause to appreciate its great value! How different and infinitely more valuable are the words of Proverbs than the quasi – wisdom literature of our day. What is the popular “wisdom” of our day? Whether it's the motivating appeals to the hope of success designed to inspire a sense of determination, so-called ‘influencers' promoting the latest shiny thing, or sports figures and celebrities exalting the virtue and reward of chasing one's dreams… one thing is certain, no one will be listening to these messages a thousand years from now.  Yet today we have before us a record of wisdom that has stood the test of 3,000 years.  If you didn't have access to the Proverbs of scripture, it would be worth selling all that you had to own a copy of this book we are beholding this morning.

 29 And Jesus answering, said to them: You err, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God.Respondens autem Jesus, ait illis : Erratis nescientes Scripturas, neque virtutem Dei. 30 For in the resurrection they shall neither marry nor be married; but shall be as the angels of God in heaven.In resurrectione enim neque nubent, neque nubentur : sed erunt sicut angeli Dei in caelo. 31 And concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read that which was spoken by God, saying to you:De resurrectione autem mortuorum non legistis quod dictum est a Deo dicente vobis : 32 I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? He is not the God of the dead, but of the living.Ego sum Deus Abraham, et Deus Isaac, et Deus Jacob? Non est Deus mortuorum, sed viventium. 33 And the multitudes hearing it, were in admiration at his doctrine.Et audientes turbae, mirabantur in doctrina ejus. 34 But the Pharisees hearing that he had silenced the Sadducees, came together:Pharisaei autem audientes quod silentium imposuisset sadducaeis, convenerunt in unum : 35 And one of them, a doctor of the law, asking him, tempting him:et interrogavit eum unus ex eis legis doctor, tentans eum : 36 Master, which is the greatest commandment in the law?Magister, quod est mandatum magnum in lege? 37 Jesus said to him: Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with thy whole mind.Ait illi Jesus : Diliges Dominum Deum tuum ex toto corde tuo, et in tota anima tua, et in tota mente tua. 38 This is the greatest and the first commandment.Hoc est maximum, et primum mandatum. 39 And the second is like to this: Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.Secundum autem simile est huic : Diliges proximum tuum, sicut teipsum. 40 On these two commandments dependeth the whole law and the prophets.In his duobus mandatis universa lex pendet, et prophetae.St Aloysius is the patron of Catholic youth. Amid the seductions of court the young prince, full of merits and virtues, kept his first innocence by marvels of mortification. He entered the Society of Jesus in Rome at the age of sixteen, and died there seven years later a victim to the plague, June 21, A.D. 1591.

Psalm 67 shows us the right way to seek God's blessing: not individually, but communally. We should ask God to show favor to his people, because the flourishing of the church leads to the flourishing of the nations.The word "blessing" might be overused in religious circles, but it gets at something profound: we all want God's blessing. We want God to favor us, to smile upon us, to be happy with us. Series Description: The Psalms are the song book of God's people, and each summer we mine their riches.

As we consider the 2nd major section in the book of Proverbs, the most obvious difference is in the form Solomon's instruction is presented.  Chapters 10-24 proceed with a collection of single sentence wisdom sayings or ‘aphorisms' under the title: “The Proverbs of Solomon”.  The style of writing compiles straightforward statements without expounding or illustrating the nuances of their application in practice.  As such, the order of the book is intuitive.  After the student masters the “My Son Oracles” of chapters 1-9, he can more effectively process and deploy the aphorisms of Proverbs in fruitful ways.  The operating assumption is that the exercise of wisdom is a discipline honed by diligent practice.  Solomon does not anticipate every case-by-case contingency, rather he writes to inform the student's moral intuition. From this database, the wisdom practitioner is better equipped to draw his own conclusions given any number or variation of situations he may face in his life and calling. These are rules of thumb (Webster) “...methods of procedure based on experience and common sense. General principles regarded as roughly correct but not intended to be scientifically accurate.

44 No man can come to me, except the Father, who hath sent me, draw him; and I will raise him up in the last day.nemo potest venire ad me, nisi Pater, qui misit me, traxerit eum; et ego resuscitabo eum in novissimo die. 45 It is written in the prophets: And they shall all be taught of God. Every one that hath heard of the Father, and hath learned, cometh to me.Est scriptum in prophetis : Et erunt omnes docibiles Dei. Omnis qui audivit a Patre, et didicit, venit ad me. 46 Not that any man hath seen the Father; but he who is of God, he hath seen the Father.Non quia Patrem vidit quisquam, nisi is, qui est a Deo, hic vidit Patrem. 47 Amen, amen I say unto you: He that believeth in me, hath everlasting life.Amen, amen dico vobis : qui credit in me, habet vitam aeternam. 48 I am the bread of life.Ego sum panis vitae. 49 Your fathers did eat manna in the desert, and are dead.Patres vestri manducaverunt manna in deserto, et mortui sunt. 50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven; that if any man eat of it, he may not die.Hic est panis de caelo descendens : ut si quis ex ipso manducaverit, non moriatur. 51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven.Ego sum panis vivus, qui de caelo descendi. 52 If any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever; and the bread that I will give, is my flesh, for the life of the world.Si quis manducaverit ex hoc pane, vivet in aeternum : et panis quem ego dabo, caro mea est pro mundi vita.

16 For God so loved the world, as to give his only begotten Son; that whosoever believeth in him, may not perish, but may have life everlasting.Sic enim Deus dilexit mundum, ut Filium suum unigenitum daret : ut omnis qui credit in eum, non pereat, sed habeat vitam aeternam. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world, to judge the world, but that the world may be saved by him.Non enim misit Deus Filium suum in mundum, ut judicet mundum, sed ut salvetur mundus per ipsum. 18 He that believeth in him is not judged. But he that doth not believe, is already judged: because he believeth not in the name of the only begotten Son of God.Qui credit in eum, non judicatur; qui autem non credit, jam judicatus est : quia non credit in nomine unigeniti Filii Dei. 19 And this is the judgment: because the light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than the light: for their works were evil.Hoc est autem judicium : quia lux venit in mundum, et dilexerunt homines magis tenebras quam lucem : erant enim eorum mala opera. 20 For every one that doth evil hateth the light, and cometh not to the light, that his works may not be reproved.Omnis enim qui male agit, odit lucem, et non venit ad lucem, ut non arguantur opera ejus : 21 But he that doth truth, cometh to the light, that his works may be made manifest, because they are done in God.qui autem facit veritatem, venit ad lucem, ut manifestentur opera ejus, quia in Deo sunt facta.

In this sermon, we explore the anatomy of Christian worship: the what, why, when, how, and who.Human beings aren't just thinkers or lovers or doers; we are worshipers. And the Bible calls us to worship God. So what exactly does that look like? Series Description: The Psalms are the song book of God's people, and each summer we mine their riches. Their imagery, poetry, and theology invite us to deeper worship of God and remind us of his unchanging character.

David's life story was shaped by conflict. He was a wartime king and answered a warrior calling from the days of his youth. For this reason, in fact, David was not permitted to build the house of God (I Chron 22:8). David was a conqueror, his son Solomon would be a builder. Their respective callings would present unique challenges. For David, the incessant threat of Israel's enemies drove him time and again to prayer. Psalm 140 is a classic example. Both David and Solomon prefigure messianic glory of their future son's exploits. The one to whom David prays for deliverance will send His only Son to ultimately fulfill the calling given to Jeremiah (1:10) “See I have set you this day over nations, and over kingdoms, to pluck up, and to break down, to destroy, and to overthrow, to build, and to plant.” In the meantime David beseeches the Lord.

Orthodoxy and Orthopraxis (right belief and right practice) are intimately tied together. All of the fathers and, in particular, Saint Isaac the Syrian want us to understand that our perception of revelation, who God is to us and what we have become in his Son through the Paschal mystery, and how we live our life are inseparable. God has revealed himself to us in a unique and distinctive fashion, and has made known to us our dignity and destiny in Christ. Therefore, having a clear understanding of our human nature, the sickness of sin and the passions that follow and the healing that takes place through Grace is imperative. Isaac pushes us to understand that virtue is the natural health of the soul and the passions are an illness of the soul that follow and invade our nature and despoil its proper health. One can see how essential this is when looking at our life in this world and the struggles of the spiritual life. We can attribute sin and the hold that passions have upon us simply to human nature. However, when we do this, we lose sight of the fact that we have been created in the image and likeness of God and that sin is antecedent to that reality. We have been created for love and to manifest this love through virtue. A faulty or incomplete understanding of human anthropology and psychology, has often been the pretext that the Evil One uses to distort our vision to the point that we willingly embrace that which enslaves us.  To understand that we have been created good, conversely, establishes a firm desire within the human heart for that which is of God. It also establishes confidence and hope in the grace of God who tells us precisely that he has come not to judge the world but to save it!  One of the beautiful things that the desert fathers would have us understand is that Christ is the divine physician who has come to heal us. He is the Good Samaritan from the gospel who takes our burden upon himself in order that we might be nursed to the fullness of health.  Again, if Isaac makes us work to understand this, we must see it as a labor of love. To grasp these truths allows us to give free expression to our desire for God and to run towards Him with the freedom of those aided by His Grace. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:01:52 Fr.

I've heard the term used roughly in the sense of "emotions" (i.e. anger, sadness, etc.), but does Isaac mean it more in the sense of "temptations"? I think you may have just explained this now, but in that case, could you briefly restate this? 00:30:04 Suzanne Romano: Does Isaac distinguish between original nature and fallen nature? 00:33:15 David: I found this helpful from Fr.

In this sermon, we explore the reality that each one of us needs a greater vision of the God who is provider, powerful, and personal.

According to Paul's Example in Ministry…A Christian Should Be: A servant to others, a master of himself, and a student of the Word. Why a student of the Word of God? Because according to Paul, there is no loss of fidelity in the scriptures over time.  The instructions and warnings issued to the wandering Israelites bore relevance and authority for the Corinthian church in Paul's day and the same is true for us today.  The shelf life of the apostles instruction extends to the end of the church age.  This apostolic commentary features principles of continuity presumed in Paul's understanding of the scriptures. His assurance is that if we take heed of these things, we will not fall. First Corinthians chapter 10 is a passage of utmost importance for the spiritual health of the believer & the church.

26 But when the Paraclete cometh, whom I will send you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceedeth from the Father, he shall give testimony of me.Cum autem venerit Paraclitus, quem ego mittam vobis a Patre, Spiritum veritatis, qui a Patre procedit, ille testimonium perhibebit de me; 27 And you shall give testimony, because you are with me from the beginning.et vos testimonium perhibebitis, quia ab initio mecum estis. 1 These things have I spoken to you, that you may not be scandalized.Haec locutus sum vobis, ut non scandalizemini. 2 They will put you out of the synagogues: yea, the hour cometh, that whosoever killeth you, will think that he doth a service to God.Absque synagogis facient vos : sed venit hora, ut omnis qui interficit vos arbitretur obsequium se praestare Deo. 3 And these things will they do to you; because they have not known the Father, nor me.Et haec facient vobis, quia non noverunt Patrem, neque me. 4 But these things I have told you, that when the hour shall come, you may remember that I told you of them.Sed haec locutus sum vobis, ut cum venerit hora eorum, reminiscamini quia ego dixi vobisOur Lord promised that He would send the Holy Ghost.

26 And in the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God into a city of Galilee, called Nazareth,In mense autem sexto, missus est angelus Gabriel a Deo in civitatem Galilaeae, cui nomen Nazareth, 27 To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary.ad virginem desponsatam viro, cui nomen erat Joseph, de domo David : et nomen virginis Maria. 28 And the angel being come in, said unto her: Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.Et ingressus angelus ad eam dixit : Ave gratia plena : Dominus tecum : benedicta tu in mulieribus. 29 Who having heard, was troubled at his saying, and thought with herself what manner of salutation this should be.Quae cum audisset, turbata est in sermone ejus, et cogitabat qualis esset ista salutatio. 30 And the angel said to her: Fear not, Mary, for thou hast found grace with God.Et ait angelus ei : Ne timeas, Maria : invenisti enim gratiam apud Deum. 31 Behold thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and shalt bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his name Jesus.Ecce concipies in utero, et paries filium, et vocabis nomen ejus Jesum : 32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the most High; and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of David his father; and he shall reign in the house of Jacob for ever.hic erit magnus, et Filius Altissimi vocabitur, et dabit illi Dominus Deus sedem David patris ejus : et regnabit in domo Jacob in aeternum, 33 And of his kingdom there shall be no end.et regni ejus non erit finis.

Proverbs Chapter 9 paints a picture of a feast at Lady wisdom's house. This event involves preparation, invitation, and conversation. Having covered the first two, in our sermon today we address the third. Our text presents a sample of conversation at Lady Wisdom's table.  What are topics of consideration, issues of concern, and life lessons we hear when we eavesdrop, or better yet, sit down for a meal at her house? Verses 7-12 tell us. Structural Note: As chapter 9 closes, so does the first major section of Proverbs.  These passages are compiled under the heading of Solomon as son of David & king of Israel (1:1) and as such feature themes of generational legacy & equipping. We might call chapters 1-9 “The ‘My Son' Oracles'.  Chapters 10-24 follow with a collection of primarily single sentence wisdom sayings or ‘aphorisms' under the title: “The Proverbs of Solomon”. Hezekiah's scribes publish additional proverbs of Solomon in chapters 25-29 the wise sayings of this section are not quite as terse as the 2nd section.  The book closes with installments written by 2 other students of wisdom (Agur & king Lemuel) proverbs (30-31).  These authors contribute extended applications of that communicable attribute of God equipping the student of wisdom with skills for the art of Godly living.

In this sermon, we explore the reality that Christians are called to bear one another's burdens in such a way that we are participating in one another's sanctification.As disciples of Jesus who are filled with the Spirit, Christians are called to bear one another's burdens. But what exactly does that mean? And why, a few verses later, does Scripture exhort us that "each will have to bear his own load" (Galatians 6:5)? Series Description: Clericalism & Consumerism are two ever-present dangers for the church. Clericalism over-emphasizes the role of priests, bishops, and pastors, leaving ministry to “the professionals.” Consumerism causes us to relate to the church as a vendor of goods & services. To counteract these tendencies, we need to understand the biblical doctrine of the priesthood of all believers.

In this sermon, we explore what it looks like to live out the call to "welcome one another as Christ has welcomed you."Throughout his ministry, Jesus Christ welcomed both outsiders and insiders, both the tax collector and the religious scribe. His ministry broke down social, political, and economic barriers. And because Jesus is our Great High Priest, his followers, who have received the welcome of Christ, are called to embody the same welcome and hospitality. Preaching Series Summary: Clericalism & Consumerism are two ever-present dangers for the church.

Psalm 139 reads like a diary entry of David with its emotional and personal context, yet it is introduced as a hymn for the choirmaster to be sung in public worship. Its inclusion in the Psalter calls the believing singer/reader to identify with David's heartfelt relationship to His omniscient and loving Creator. The psalm calls us to assume its 1" person perspective as we confess with David the limitless knowledge, love, and power of Christ toward us, His beloved bride, who He died to redeem. This song is one of confession and submission to the sovereign knowledge of God. It is the opposite of Adam and Eve's impulse on their day of reckoning. Rather than hiding from God and scrambling to disguise his-guilt and shame, David submits-whole heartedly to the Lord, asking for God to audit his heart and life.

Whose responsibility is it to teach in the local church? Because Jesus is our great high priest, all Christians are called to "teach and admonish one another" (Colossians 3:16). In this sermon, we explore what it looks like to live out this command in the ordinary life of a local church community.

The title for our message comes from chapter 10 verse 11 where Paul identifies his hearers, as those on whom the end of the ages has come. Paul's greater audience therefore is all the Church until Jesus returns. While the occasion for his letter involves issues in Corinth, the application of his instruction extends to every Gospel outpost of the church age until new heavens & earth kingdom consummation.  Paul expounds his own Holy Spirit led philosophy of ministry in chapters 9 & 10 of I Corinthians to convict and inspire this church to apply these principles of Gospel ministry in their own lives and congregation.  In these practical ways he instructs them “be imitators of me, as I am of Christ.” (10:33b)

In the Middle Ages, the Roman Catholic Church mandated that Christians to confess their sins to a priest. But since Jesus is our great high priest, Christians actually have the freedom and responsibility to "Confess your sins to one another" (James 5:16). What if we actually did that? In this sermon, we explore how the grace of Jesus empowers us to confess our sins to one another and pray for one another.

In the first chapter of 2 Peter, Peter gives the church practical application on how we are to confirm our calling and election. He reminds the church of the great precious gift that we have been given, the promise of eternal life. He then calls the believer to action, to be effective and fruitful for the kingdom of God. God has granted the believer everything they need to be fruitful for the kingdom of God.

Christ is risen! Sin and death have been defeated, and all those who trust in Christ receive eternal life. But what does that mean, exactly? In this Easter 2025 sermon, we look at John 3:16—perhaps the most familiar verse in the Bible—to explore the love of God, the grace of God, and the path to life.

In the final chapter of Daniel, God reveals his purposes for the end of history. So how ought we to live in light of the end? The answer might surprise you. God instructs Daniel to "go your way." The details about the end of time aren't ours to know. Instead, we ought to live our lives to please God, know God, and see God.(0:00) Scripture Reading: Daniel 12(3:18) The End of the World(12:20) Just Live Life(17:00) Live to Please God (Ethics)(21:27) Live to Know God (Wisdom)(25:38) Live to See God (Worship)
