What do you do with a love poem in the middle of your Bible? This week we'll see how the Song of Solomon pulls back the shades on our closed, hurried world. In a culture chasing superhuman strength through technology and self-reliance, this ancient poem invites us to slow down, listen, and see the Bridegroom bounding toward us in love.

How do you know you're right with God? The answer isn't in what you've done — but in what Jesus already did. In a world that rewards performance, this message is a reminder that justification comes not by works, but by faith in Christ alone.
If God makes promises and God keeps his promises, why is life so hard? Why do I have good desires (for peace or intimacy or joy) that go unmet? Our cloud of witnesses reminds us that this world is not our home, and our unmet desires prove it. Instead, we desire a better (heavenly) home. Don't grow weary and lose heart for our true home exists and awaits us!

Worship is not just something we do...it's who we are made to be. In this message, we explore what it truly means to worship God in spirit and truth- beyond rituals and routines, from the depths of our hearts. How might your life change if worship became your everyday reality?
Right after Jesus dies the Bible says, “And behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom.” It was not torn from the bottom-up, as though we could tear the veil open. Rather through the death of Christ—through his torn body—we are given access. No more insiders or outsiders but rather we are all welcomed in on account of Christ. What great news!

In a culture that urges us to define ourselves by what we do, what we have, or how we feel, it's easy to lose sight of who we truly are. This message confronts the identity crisis many of us carry by tracing it back to the root- how sin distorts, culture confuses, and God clarifies who we were always meant to be: His image bearers.
The birth of a child is a time for excitement, whether you are the parent, sibling, grandparent, aunt/uncle, cousin, or friend. Under no circumstance should a parent ever name their child “No Glory.” But that's exactly what Ichabod means. Why would his mother choose such a name? And how could this possibly be connected to the birth of another son, who himself was destined for (no) glory?

Buried within the Old Testament is the story of a woman who drove a tent peg through the temple of an army commander. What kind of religious text is this? How could one scrape together morality from such a biblical passage? What if it's not about religion nor morality but instead about preaching the gospel more than 1,000 years prior to the death of Christ?

Have you forgotten what grace rescued you from—and what it calls you to? In this message, Clay unpacks Titus 3 to help us remember the transforming power of the Gospel and how it compels us to live lives marked by humility, kindness, and hope in a fractured world.
When Jesus is transfigured on the mountain, Peter does what we all do: he scrambles to preserve the moment & stay on top. But the voice from the cloud doesn't invite Peter to build something; it calls him to listen. In a world chasing curated wellness and manufactured peace, the Transfiguration confronts our illusion of control and reveals a Savior who walks down the mountain into our darkness to bring us into lasting light.

An Old Testament figure named Naaman appeared to have it all––riches, power, favor. But he encountered a problem he couldn't fix. And through his story we see how God often operates in unexpected or (from a worldly perspective) upside-down ways. Would Naaman (and will we) trust in the solution God offers?

An Old Testament figure named Hagar identifies God as the One who sees her. As part of our cloud of witnesses, she encourages us to believe that God sees all the details of our lives including those parts we're ashamed of. More than that, as Tim Keller said, God loves us “all the way to the bottom” seeing all of our unlovable parts yet declaring “I love you anyway.” Cloud of Witnesses Cor Chmieleski Hope Community Church - Downtown Minneapolis Download Message Slides For more resources or to learn more about Hope Community Church, visit hopecc.com.

What if your faith is meant to shape not just what you believe, but who you become? In this sermon, Clay unpacks Titus 2 to explore how embracing sound doctrine anchors our hearts in Christ, transforms our character, and empowers us to live with integrity in a world desperate for hope.
It starts with two brothers and two offerings. One is accepted, the other isn't, and what unfolds exposes something hidden in all of us—a quiet comparison, a craving to be enough, a soul that won't settle. You can't outwork that restlessness, but you can let better blood speak.

Our current cultural moment lends itself to highly narrated identities. What is a highly narrated identity? It's a self-conception that is shaped, curated, and reinforced through continuous personal storytelling. Essentially, you're the author. Scripture confronts this thinking and invites to embrace a new author and new identity, one beyond your ability to manufacture.
