Peace To YouLuke 24:36-53The Village Chapel - 11/02/2025On the evening of the resurrection, the disciples huddled together unsure what to make of the rumors and eyewitness accounts that Jesus was alive. Then suddenly, He stood among them. The same hands that had been pierced were now in front of them. The same voice that cried out on the cross now spoke peace into their despair. In that moment, the disciples were changed. The crucified one was not only alive—He was bodily present, eating with them, opening the Scriptures, and revealing that His suffering and resurrection were all part of God's plan of redemption.Join Pastor Tommy as we close our study through the Gospel of Luke and reflect on the astonishing reality of the risen Christ. His cross secured our forgiveness, His resurrection guarantees our future with Him.To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

Shrewdness, Stewardship & Submission in the KingdomLuke 16:1-13The Village Chapel - 06/08/2025In the three parables of Jesus in Chapter 15 of Luke's gospel, we saw how precious lost people are to God. The parable of the prodigal son ended with the father explaining to his older son that all the father has already belongs to him. In Chapter 16, Jesus speaks to his disciples about faithfulness with money, a small thing compared to eternal treasure. We are reminded that righteous stewardship begins with the acknowledgement that all we have been given by our Father still belongs to Him and we are accountable for how we use it in His kingdom.To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

The Fellowship of the ForgivenLuke 15The Village Chapel - 06/01/2025Have you ever lost something precious—something you feared was gone for good—only to experience the overwhelming relief and joy of finding it again? In Luke 15, Jesus tells a trio of parables about lost things: a sheep, a coin, and two sons. Each story offers a window into the heart of God for those who are lost.This week, join us as we explore what it means to be lost and what it means to be sought and found by a pursuing God.

Real Discipleship, Real Cost, Real ImpactLuke 14:25-35The Village Chapel - 05/25/2025You were made for more. More than mere survival. More than greater success. More than just discovering your “self”. Beneath every craving for purpose, every longing to belong, and every restless ache for something more—is a deeper call. It's the voice of Jesus, saying, “Follow Me.”But His call on our lives isn't a casual invitation. It's a summons to a whole new way of being and living—to a life where Christ is not merely an accessory, but at the very core and center. A life where our loves are reordered, where meaning runs deep, and our stories get rewritten in light of eternity.Join Pastor Jim for this study Luke 14:25-35 where we'll explore what it really means to follow Jesus. Not just to believe in Him, but to follow Him so closely you walk in His dust. Not just to receive His gifts, but to also live under the freedom of His Lordship. Not just to become more religious—but to live a life of real impact, following Jesus as one of His disciples!To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

The Table Set by GraceLuke 14:1-24The Village Chapel - 05/18/2025What if true freedom begins with honesty? What if real joy grows in the soil of humility? What if grace doesn't ask you to earn your seat—but simply invites you to come? There is a table—where you don't have to be a somebody to get a seat, where the humble become the joyful, and where outcasts, outsiders and the overlooked are all invited in.Join Pastor Jim as he leads us into the house of a leader of the Pharisees in Luke 14 and Jesus opens our eyes to a banquet of scandalous welcome, where grace rewrites the guest list.

The Narrow Door Is Open WideLuke 13The Village Chapel - 05/11/2025In Luke 13, Jesus reminds his listeners that there is a universal need for repentance, no matter the circumstances of their lives. The door to the kingdom is narrow, and for now, is flung open wide with an invitation to all to enter. But Jesus also warns us that at some point, that door will be closed.

This Day and That DayLuke 12:35-59The Village Chapel - 05/04/2025Waiting is rarely easy, but in Luke 12:35-59, Jesus calls His disciples to wait with a watchful readiness that is anything but passive. His call is to stay dressed for action (be ready), to keep our lamps burning (stay awake), and to live each day with hearts anchored in the promise of His return (eager for His arrival). Our waiting is not wasted–it is shaped by the character and promises of God in Christ and should transform how we live on this day.Jesus' words carry both comfort and urgency. He reminds us that the day of His return will come unexpectedly, and the character of our waiting will reveal the true orientation of our hearts. A wake up call for sleepy believers and an invitation to those who don't yet believe. Join Pastor Tommy as we study together this prophetic teaching from Jesus.

Tune My HeartLuke 12:22-34The Village Chapel - 04/27/2025We live in a world drowning in fear, crippled by anxiety, and drifting into endless distraction. From the rising of the sun to its going down, our hearts are often tossed about—scrolling, striving, worrying and wondering. But what if our restless souls could be tuned, like an instrument, to the joyful music of heaven?In Luke 12, Jesus calls us away from a life of anxious striving into the secure embrace of the Father's love—a love that gives, provides, and delights to calm our troubled hearts. Join Pastor Jim as he unfolds the beautiful mystery of Jesus as the human soul's A-440 and God's kingdom as our real True North.To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

Full Barns and Empty Hearts: The Gospel According to Luke Luke 12:1-21The Village Chapel - 04/06/2025Fear is a powerful force. It can drive us to action or paralyze us in uncertainty. But the question Jesus asks us in Luke 12:1-21 is not whether we fear, but whom we fear. The solution Jesus gives us to our fears may come as a surprise. Rather than fearing man, He calls us to fear the One who holds eternal authority—God Himself. But what does it mean to truly fear the Lord? When feared rightly, what does a life of faithfulness look like? Join us as we continue our study in the gospel of Luke and uncover why the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom—and the key to fearless, faithful living!To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

Wisdom in Warnings: The Gospel According to Luke Luke 11:33-54The Village Chapel - 03/30/2025We often picture Jesus as the ultimate example of being kind-hearted and soft-spoken, but he is also unafraid to speak hard words of truth in love when necessary. In Luke 11:33-54, Jesus encounters Pharisees and lawyers at a dinner and severely criticizes them for their external religion and adherence to man-made laws, which lead others astray. Join Pastor Matt as we reflect on how Jesus confronts hypocrisy and challenges us to live a life that points to Him.To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

The Stronger One: The Gospel According to Luke Luke 11:14-32The Village Chapel - 03/23/2025The mercy of God often arrives in ways we don't expect. In Luke 11:14–32, Jesus confronts spiritually hardened hearts and warns of vulnerability to the schemes of Satan. When He casts out a mute demon, the crowd marvels—but others resist, question and accuse. Jesus doesn't simply silence the critics; He reveals a greater reality: a cosmic conflict between two kingdoms, and only one King brings lasting freedom.Join Pastor Tommy as we consider together the reality of spiritual warfare, the clarity of Christ's kingdom, and the mercy found in His warnings.To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

The Gift, Privilege & Power of Prayer: The Gospel According to Luke Luke 11:5-13The Village Chapel - 03/16/2025Prayer is one of God's greatest gifts—an open invitation to commune with the Creator of the universe. Yet, if we're honest, we often approach it with mixed motives, distracted hearts, and uncertain faith.In Luke 11:5-13, Jesus teaches that prayer is not only a gift but also a privilege and a source of transforming power. He urges us to ask, seek, and knock, revealing that our Heavenly Father is not reluctant or annoyed but delights in hearing from us.Join Pastor Jim as he reminds us that God welcomes us in prayer, is more generous than we can imagine, and, through prayer, draws us deeper into His heart, His plans, and His purposes.To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

Lord, Teach Us to Pray: The Gospel According to Luke Luke 11:1-4The Village Chapel - 03/09/2025Do you ever wonder if prayer really works or makes a difference? Does God truly hear and answer our prayers? In this sermon, Pastor Jim dives into the Lord's Prayer (Luke 11:1-4), uncovering what prayer is—and isn't. Is prayer simply making requests for what we want, or is it our lifeline to God, a way of developing a life-altering communion with the Lord? As we explore Jesus' own teaching on prayer, we'll learn to approach God not just as a distant deity, but as a loving Father who invites us into a personal relationship. Together, we'll discover how prayer shapes our hearts and minds, aligns our will with God's, and can transform our view of everyone and everything in the world around us. Like the disciples, let's learn to pray as Jesus taught us.To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

First Things First: The Gospel According to Luke Luke 10:38-42The Village Chapel - 03/02/2025In a world that glorifies much-ness, many-ness, productivity and busyness, are we missing what matters most? When Jesus visited Martha and Mary, one was distracted, worried and bothered with her hospitality and preparations, the other was sitting close to Jesus, listening to His Word. How does their story reflect the way our own hearts can be at times? Are we prioritizing productivity over presence, service over surrender? Join us as we explore the dangers of distraction, the delights of devotion, and the call to put first things first—listening to God's Word, sitting at the feet of Jesus.To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

Unexpected Mercy: The Gospel According to Luke Luke 10:25-37The Village Chapel - 02/23/2025The parable of the Good Samaritan is one of Jesus' most well-known teachings, but its depth goes far beyond a simple moral lesson. In Luke 10:25-37, Jesus responds to a lawyer's question about inheriting eternal life by pointing to the heart of God's law: love for God and love for neighbor. Yet, through this encounter, Jesus exposes the impossibility of perfectly fulfilling the law on our own strength and reveals our profound need for God's grace and mercy.Join Pastor Tommy as we explore how Jesus redefines what it means to love God and others. His mercy is not only for the broken man on the roadside but also for the self-assured lawyer—and for us. Whether you wrestle with the weight of legalism or the pull of self-centeredness, Jesus invites you to step into a life centered on Him.To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

Field Notes From the Harvest: The Gospel According to Luke Luke 10:1-24The Village Chapel - 02/16/2025Did you know that there is only one place in the New Testament where we read that Jesus rejoiced? What was he rejoicing about? What captured his heart and soul? It was the saving of souls, because it is the desire of God that none should perish, but that all should reach repentance. Join us as we study through Luke chapter 10 and learn how Jesus equips his followers and sends them out on this mission that is so precious to his heart!To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

The Greatness of Humility: The Gospel According to LukeLuke 9:46-62The Village Chapel - 02/09/2025In Luke 9:46-62, Jesus confronts two of the most pressing issues in the life of a disciple—ambition and commitment. As the disciples argue over who is the greatest, we see a reflection of our own struggle for significance and recognition. Jesus turns our idea of greatness on its head by teaching us that true greatness in the Kingdom of God is not found in status or success but in learning to love and serve others.The call of Jesus is radical and uncompromising: choosing to follow Him will require complete surrender, the abandonment of personal priorities, and a willingness to embrace the cost of discipleship.This passage is not just a theological lesson; it's a challenge to radically reorient our lives around Jesus and His Kingdom. Join Pastor Jim as he helps us consider questions like: What are the things we cling to that hinder our walk with Christ? How can believing the Gospel of grace shape and influence us to greater humility and deeper spiritual growth?To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

A Glimpse of His GloryThe Gospel According to Luke Luke 9:28-45The Village Chapel - 02/02/2025Some moments change everything. The disciples had walked with Jesus for a while now—learning as eyewitnesses of Jesus' healing, teaching, and preaching the Gospel of the kingdom. Now, at the Transfiguration of Christ, on a high mountain, Jesus peeled back the veil between heaven and earth, revealing his divine glory in a way they'd never seen before. Then right after that, they all descended back down into the valley where chaos, suffering, and struggles with unbelief awaited.That's the paradox of the Christian life, isn't it? Glory and struggle. Awe and agony. We long to stay on the mountaintop, but Jesus calls us to walk with him through the valley of our broken world.Join Pastor Jim as he helps us catch the mind-blowing, heart-pumping, eye-popping glimpse of glory and rich depth of meaning we find in the Transfiguration of Jesus.To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

The Christ, The Cross, The CallThe Gospel According to LukeLuke 9:18-27The Village Chapel - 01/26/2025Who do you say Jesus is? This is the most crucial question every human heart must respond to. In Luke 9:18-27, we witness a pivotal moment in the ministry of Jesus and the growth of the disciples. For the first time, Peter confesses Jesus as "The Christ of God" (v. 20). It is after this confession that Jesus begins to reveal to His disciples the trajectory of His mission—suffering, death, and resurrection.Join Pastor Tommy as we consider the identity of Jesus, His work on our behalf, and His invitation to follow Him in costly discipleship so that we might find true life.Keywords: confession, grace, cross, suffering, death, resurrection, denial of self, taking up your cross, following, life, value, identity, kingdomTo find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

Living a Sent LifeThe Gospel According to LukeLuke 9:1-17The Village Chapel - 01/19/2025The Galilean portion of Jesus' ministry is drawing to a close. The disciples have witnessed miracles of Jesus' power and authority over demons, disease, nature, and even death itself. Jesus now calls his disciples and sends them out on a mission to do the very things they have witnessed him doing.

Faith in the Waiting: Trusting the Timing of the Unhurried HealerThe Gospel According to Luke Luke 8:40-56The Village Chapel - 01/12/2025In Luke 8:40-56, we read the account of two desperate individuals who reach out to Jesus in faith - one a father with a dying daughter, the other a woman who has suffered for years. Despite their urgent needs, Jesus moves with perfect, unhurried timing, demonstrating His authority over both sickness and death, and his delight in encouraging their faith. In this sermon, we'll explore how we can trust in the compassion of Jesus, His perfect timing, and His power to restore and heal. Join us as we discover how faith in the unhurried Healer brings both immediate and eternal transformation.To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

A Savior in the Storm, A Deliverer from the Darkness: The Gospel According to LukeLuke 8:22-39The Village Chapel - 01/05/2025In Luke 8:22-39 we read about two miracles of Jesus. The first was when Jesus was with His disciples out on the stormy sea, and the second occurred when Jesus was confronted by a raging, demon-possessed man. In the storm, all seemed lost. In the confrontation with the demoniac, all the darkness of hell was on full display.What did Jesus do in each situation and what do we learn about Him? How did His disciples react? And what can that teach us as we seek to follow Christ ourselves?Join Pastor Jim as he unpacks answers to these and other questions in our verse-by-verse study of The Gospel According to Luke.To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

From the women who followed Jesus, the parable of the sower, and the illuminating call that His family is made up of those who hear and obey, Jesus challenges us to examine the soil of our hearts. Are we merely hearing the Word, or are we allowing it to take root, grow, and bear fruit in our lives? If not, how do we cultivate hearts that can truly recieve God's word when we hear it?

Pride and Shame Encounter JesusThe Gospel According to Luke - Luke 7:36-50The Village Chapel - 11/17/2024In Luke 7, Jesus is invited to dinner at a Pharisee's house. What happens next is both awkward and uncomfortable, yet profoundly beautiful, as Jesus encounters a woman publicly known as a sinner. Pride meets shame, and Jesus reveals the truth of the debt we all owe and the lavish grace on offer to everyone. As we wrestle with our inner narratives, it's essential to understand where our identity is found and sourced. Join Pastor Matt as he teaches us through Luke 7:36-50 and helps us explore the love of God in Christ for all of us.To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.
