In a world that often feels heavy and uncertain, we’ll gather to see and celebrate the comfort of His presence—the Light who enters our darkness, the Peace that steadies our hearts, and the hope that never fades. Discussion Questions: In Isaiah 9:1–2, Isaiah describes a movement from deep darkness to light. Based on the text, what is the source of this shift? What does Isaiah want us to see as the turning point from doom to hope? Isaiah calls the Messiah the “Prince of Peace” in verse 6. Looking at verses 6–7, where does this peace come from, and what kind of peace is Isaiah describing? What clues do we get that this peace is rooted in God’s rule, not our circumstances? In 2 Corinthians 5, Paul says we are reconciled to God through Christ and calls people to “be reconciled to God.” How does peace with God serve as the foundation for every other kind of peace Isaiah points toward? Jesus says in John 14:27, “My peace I give to you… not as the world gives.” How does Jesus’ definition of peace differ from what we usually think of when we talk about peace? How does this help us understand why inner peace can exist even when life feels unsettled? Pastor Jon talked about peace in four directions—peace with God, peace within, peace with others, and peace that is still to come. Which of those do you feel most drawn to or most lacking right now, and how does Scripture invite you to take a step toward peace there?

At Jesus' birth, peace didn't arrive as a worldwide change in circumstances — it arrived as a person.“On earth peace” reminds us that God sent Peace into a broken world, not by removing adversity, but by being present in it through Jesus. We don't have to wait for Christ's second coming to experience His peace — it's available to us now as we come to know Him personally, even in the middle of fear, pain, and uncertainty.In this message from our Christmas at Vima services, Pastor Jon invites us to uncover a powerful truth hidden in familiar words.

Christmas involves quite a few kings. When Jesus, the King of Kings, entered the world, there were already earthly kings that Jesus's Kingdom challenged. Pastor Jon compares Jesus's holy, eternal, and powerful Kingdom to the limited and dark ones of Caesar and Herod. Speaker: Jon Thompson Publication: December 21, 2025

This weekend, Pastor Jon continues our Advent series in John 1:1 with a sermon titled, "The Word Was God".

In this message from The Missing Peace, Pastor Jon explores what it means to make peace with God. Even when belief remains, it's possible to lose our peace with Him — and this message invites us to examine where that disconnect may exist. At the heart of this message is an invitation to return to honest, restored communion with God. In seasons of questioning, waiting, and unmet expectations, we're reminded that true peace was purchased at a great cost and is found when we repent, realign our hearts, and draw near to Him once again.

We look at the Magi, their journey, and how God led them step by step—long before they ever saw the outcome.

Jesus is the King of Christmas. But did you realize he's not the only king involved in the amazing rescue story that we celebrate at Christmastime? Pastor Jon starts our examination of powers - and specifically the power of Evil in the world - and how the Christmas story destroyed the lasting power of Evil so it no longer owns us - all because of Jesus.  Speaker: Jon Thompson Publication: December 14, 2025

This Sunday, Pastor Jon continued our Advent series, He Shall Be, with a teaching on Jesus' greatness and how He redefined what greatness means in the Kingdom of God. He contrasted our culture's pursuit of success, status, and recognition with the way of Jesus, whose greatness is revealed in humility, dependence, and self-giving love. In a world obsessed with achievement, Jesus' greatness is found in His descent; he had everything but became a child for our sake. And when we follow Jesus' example and rest in the Father's secure love, we are freed to serve others without fear. The path to true greatness is not a life shaped not by recognition, but by humility and Christlike love.

Jesus is the prophesied Messiah, let us go and worship Him!

In week two of The Missing Peace, Pastor Jon reminds us that God's peace isn't something we simply wish for — it's something we're called to make. In this message, we learn the difference between wanting peace, demanding peace, and actually becoming a peacemaker.God attaches responsibility to His peace, inviting us to bring it into the relationships and spaces around us. As we pursue peace for others, we discover more of it in our own lives. Tune in and learn how to live out the peace of Christ wherever you go.

This week on the Companion Podcast, we're unwrapping one of the most needed gifts of Christmas — peace. Not the kind you get from a quiet moment, a Hallmark movie, or a candle that smells like pine needles, but the kind Jesus offered His disciples in the middle of a storm. Evan, Pastor Jon, and David talk about real peace: the kind that anchors you when your fears are justified, when the boat is actually filling with water, and when life feels more chaotic than Christmas should allow.They explore how the Holy Spirit forms peace in us, why temporary fixes fall short, how pride keeps us holding the string of our anxieties, and how humility opens us to the peace Jesus gives.If your life feels more like a storm than a snow globe, this episode is for you.

Paul asks the question every critic of grace loves to throw: If we're saved by free grace and not by law-keeping, why not just keep sinning? In this final B-Sides of the year, Pastor Jon and Pastor Rusten dive into Romans 6 and show why the answer is a resounding “By no means!” Union with Christ's death and resurrection, the end of slavery to sin, and the myth of neutrality all show that grace doesn't permit sin—it kills it. Merry Christmas, everyone!We hope you enjoy, and as usual, if you have any questions for Sermon B-Sides or anything else, email us at pastor@coramdeochurch.org.

Pastor Jon unpacks how patience, kindness, and other attributes shape our relationships and reflect God's love. Discover how love protects, trusts, hopes, and perseveres, offering a "most excellent way" to build intimacy. The message also touches on how striving to love one another is a "dim reflection" of the love that God has for us.

This Sunday, Pastor Jon Tyson continued our series Making Sense of Church with a teaching from Ephesians 2:14–18, focusing on Paul's vision of the Church as the "the new humanity." In a society marked by polarization, contempt, and hostility, Pastor Jon reminded us that Jesus Himself is our peace—the One who tears down dividing walls and creates a radically new kind of community. In Adam, the "old humanity" is marked by blame, fear, hiding, violence, and retaliation, but in Christ, we are brought into a kainos humanity—new in kind, not just in time. Through the cross, Jesus forms a people defined by grace, love, and unity.

Join us this weekend as Pastor Jon continues our series, Discovering Deuteronomy, with a message titled “The Secret Things of the Lord” diving into Deuteronomy 29

What if God is launching a spring in your soul? In John 21, the disciples return to what's familiar after failure, only to encounter Jesus on the shore with a new invitation. In this message, Pastor Jon shares how renewal begins when we release what's familiar, trust God's voice over fear, and rest in His grace. Like Peter, we discover that Jesus doesn't erase our past—He redeems it. The Spring of the Soul begins when we stop striving, start listening, and step forward into the new work God is forming within us.

How do we live after God prunes what we still desire but must not keep? Even after loss, our hearts often long for what God has taken. In this message, Pastor Jon explores Lamentations 3:19–24 and the “winter of the soul”—those seasons when God feels silent, comfort fades, and faith is tested. Through Jeremiah's lament, we learn that winter is not abandonment but transformation. God uses sacred sadness to strip away false security and reveal His steadfast love, faithfulness, and presence. The season you're in is not the end of your story; it's the soil where resurrection begins.

Pastor Jon walks through his view of communion and the last supper.
