God is coming to do something about all the injustice and evil in the world. Isaiah makes that clear. He is coming to bring justice. But is that good news for us or bad news? It depends on which side of God's justice you're on. Because of our Redeemer, we know that for us, God's justice means salvation and life.

Well, we are going to be studying in the book of Numbers and chapter 20. We began that chapter last week. We're going to continue now with verse 14. And there's an important word that appears here, and we're going to see that this word is connected to Moses, and we need to remember something. Moses was the first Redeemer. We find that the Exodus from Egypt is understood in Judaism as the first redemption. But what do we look forward to?

Transfiguration, Word, and Sacrament Matthew 17:1-9  Transfiguration Sunday Sunday, February 15, 2026 The Rev. Andrew DeFusco, Rector Church of the Redeemer, Nashville, TN www.Redeemer-Nashville.net

Today is day 48 and we are beginning the section on the Second Article of the Apostles' Creed on Jesus Christ the Son of God. Today we are on the fourth line: “I believe in Jesus Christ” and studying question 48. 48. Who is Jesus Christ? Jesus Christ is the eternal Word and Son of God, the second Person of the Holy Trinity. He took on human nature to be the Savior and Redeemer of the world, the only Mediator between God and fallen humanity. (Psalm 2; Malachi 3:1; John 1:1–18; Philippians 2:5–11; 1 Timothy 2:5–6) We will conclude today with Prayer 96. For Union with Christ found on page 674 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).

Mark 10:4545For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”John 13:1-171Now before the Feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that his hour had come to depart out of this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end. 2During supper, when the devil had already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him, 3Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he had come from God and was going back to God, 4rose from supper. He laid aside his outer garments, and taking a towel, tied it around his waist. 5Then he poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples' feet and to wipe them with the towel that was wrapped around him. 6He came to Simon Peter, who said to him, “Lord, do you wash my feet?” 7Jesus answered him, “What I am doing you do not understand now, but afterward you will understand.” 8Peter said to him, “You shall never wash my feet.” Jesus answered him, “If I do not wash you, you have no share with me.” 9Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, not my feet only but also my hands and my head!” 10Jesus said to him, “The one who has bathed does not need to wash, except for his feet, but is completely clean. And you are clean, but not every one of you.” 11For he knew who was to betray him; that was why he said, “Not all of you are clean.”12When he had washed their feet and put on his outer garments and resumed his place, he said to them, “Do you understand what I have done to you? 13You call me Teacher and Lord, and you are right, for so I am. 14If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet. 15For I have given you an example, that you also should do just as I have done to you. 16Truly, truly, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. 17If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them.

The King's CallingMark 1:14-20Rev. Bill McCutchen

At Redeemer, we take seriously Jesus' call to "Go and make disciples of all nations baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you." Apprenticeship to Jesus is not a one time decision, but a lifelong journey of following Jesus as our master-teacher. Since the goal of the Christian life is maturity in Jesus, apprenticeship must be deep and holistic, transforming the spiritual, physical, emotional, social, and vocational parts of men and women. Apprenticeship to Jesus is learning to practice the way of Jesus in our homes, relationships, neighborhoods, and jobs. We believe Christlikeness is cultivated as we implement spiritual practices, live in community with other believers, and submit to the Word and the Spirit. We agree with Dallas Willard who said, "that the gospel is opposed to earning, not effort." As we move towards cultivating a life of loving God and people, we trust Christ will mature us into his likeness. https://redeemerwichita.church/

Ruth and Boaz exhibit faith in courageous action. Going to the threshing floor meant putting everything on the line, yet Ruth goes and makes a proposal to Boaz. In knowing he is a redeemer, they both understand the Lord's provision here, and the matter will be settled in the morning. These two point the greater love story of Christ our Redeemer sheltering us under His wings. However this life plays out, we are to be faithful, knowing that the Lord's faithfulness endures forever.

Part 18 in series The post A Tragic Beginning appeared first on Redeemer Community Church.

Caleb Schafer, the Lead Pastor of Redeemer's Church, begins a new series based on the parable of a sheep that chooses to use only 3 of its 4 legs. Each leg represents one of the 4 pillars a Christian needs to have a thriving spiritual life.  February 15th, 2026 | 2.15.26 Category: Stability, Necessity, Standing Firm

Jeremiah sometimes has the reputation of being a prophet of doom and gloom, however, he also pins some of the most hopeful words in all of Scripture. After God's judgment on the nation of Israel, they are promised an immensely bright future, and it begins with the One whom God will send. He will be a king and a priest unlike any that Israel had ever seen, and He will accomplish what no one else ever could: never-ending forgiveness, righteousness, peace, and victory.

Send a textWhat if hardship isn't a verdict against you but a stage where God's faithfulness stands out? We dive into Job's protest against shallow counsel and trace a line from his tear-soaked prayers to a living hope that refuses to confuse suffering with secret sin. Along the way, we invite you to test every voice—ours included—and weigh every claim against Scripture rather than charisma, degrees, or stories that sound good in the moment.The conversation turns tender when a listener shares how the Lazarus story mirrors a return from unbelief, naming the holiness of being considered by God after deep trauma. We explore agape love that does not wobble with mood, the freedom of forgiveness that will not be rescinded, and the courage it takes to resist the enemy's accusations. From there we challenge easy slogans about divine love by revisiting John 3:16 as a radical widening of God's people beyond Israel to every nation, without erasing the narrow door of salvation through Christ. It's a vision big enough to include the nations and specific enough to require a Redeemer.Job 16 becomes a courtroom: “O earth, do not cover my blood.” Surrounded by miserable comforters, Job asks that his suffering not be buried, his case not closed, and his vindication be heard in the court of the Most High. That plea echoes Abel and points forward to Job 19: “I know that my Redeemer lives.” We hold space for hard questions about election, mercy, and why some believe while others don't, and we let the tension drive us back to trust. Peter's reminder to mocked believers frames the close: the Lord is not slow, and patience is not absence. Keep the case open. Keep praying. Keep believing.If this conversation challenged or comforted you, follow the show, share it with a friend who's walking through fire, and leave a review with the one question you still want answered.

Send a textWhat if the world isn't stalling but being held on purpose? We open 2 Peter 3 and watch Peter move from the flood of Noah to the fire of judgment, then slow down to explain God's clock. One day as a thousand years is not a puzzle for date-setters; it's a cure for anxious hearts. The delay is not neglect. It's mercy—God's active patience to bring every one of his people to repentance, the kind of promise that can hold you when mockers sneer and timelines fray.From there we step into the raw honesty of Job. “My witness is in heaven,” he declares while friends scorn and tears fall. Job refuses the shortcut of fatalism and the trap of self-justification. Instead, he longs for an advocate who can stand with him and for him—near enough to understand, righteous enough to prevail. That longing lands on Christ the Mediator, truly man and truly God, who bears our case before the Father and anchors our hope above. The storm may swing the ship, but the anchor holds when it's set in Jesus.We connect these threads into a sturdy assurance: God is not slack concerning his promise; he keeps time differently and keeps promises perfectly. Election, calling, justification, and the perseverance of the saints aren't ivory-tower terms here; they are the rails we run on when life shakes. Endurance is not a feat of willpower but the fruit of a living Redeemer. If he loses none of his own, then delay is grace, judgment is certain, and today is a window for repentance and rest.Listen to hear why divine patience matters for your doubts, how Job's tears can shape your prayers, and how Christ's advocacy turns the courtroom of heaven into a place of peace. If this helped you breathe a little easier, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs assurance, and leave a review so others can find it.Support the showBE PROVOKED AND BE PERSUADED!

Send a textWhat if being “known” by God means being loved by God—personally, covenantally, and from before time? We dive into the heart of foreknowledge as fore-love and follow that thread through predestination, redemption, and the kind of assurance that holds when explanations don't. Along the way, Job stands beside us: a faithful sufferer who never got the memo yet became a witness to generations. His urgency before death, his appeal to a heavenly advocate, and his cry, “I know that my Redeemer lives,” become a roadmap for how to trust when answers are silent.We share how Jesus' words, “I never knew you,” are not about God forgetting but about a relationship that never was—and why that clarity comforts believers rather than crushing them. Faith emerges as more than a feeling: it's the Spirit-wrought substance and evidence that anchors us to Christ seated in heaven. Through honest testimonies and praise reports, we celebrate God's provision without bowing to it, and we name the daily practices that keep the heart steady—preaching Scripture to the soul, resisting the fear of man, and refusing the distractions that dull our worship.If you need courage to face confusion, or language for your hope, you'll find both here. We pray together, we rejoice with those who've received new jobs and raises, and we lift up those serving the vulnerable. Most of all, we fix our eyes on the Witness in heaven and the Word that heals.

IntroductionThe Canons of Dort is a theologically rich document that addresses critical questions about God's sovereignty and human free will. While it can unfortunately fuel argumentative "cage phase" theology, its true purpose is far more pastoral: to provide genuine consolation in knowing that God desires, chooses, and gives life to His people. This teaching isn't meant to create theological elites obsessed with debate, but rather to lead believers toward Scripture, submission to God's Word, and ultimately to His glory. The Canons address two extremes. The two extremes are hyper-Calvinism and Arminianism. Both of these extremes rob believers of assurance and leave them chasing their tails without real spiritual progress. Significant Observation - The Tension Between God's Universal Call and Particular WorkThe Canons of Dort do not aim to divide the church but to address real theological problems with precision. The challenge is that the Canons desire to remain helpful rather than overwhelming people with details. It reminds us that theological work should be done "with a view to the glory of God's name, holiness of life, and comfort of anxious souls.” Our temptation is to make a name for ourselves or win arguments.This creates an important tension visible in John 3: there's clearly a universal, sincere call in John 3:16 where God loves the world and offers eternal life to "whoever believes.” This has to be read in light of verses 1-15. John 3:1-15 makes it explicit that one will not respond to the Gospel without being born again. This is why Nicodemus struggles with the reality that one must be "born of the Spirit" to even see the kingdom. Both truths stand: the general call is real, and the particular application of Christ's work to God's people is also real. Like Nicodemus, an intelligent Pharisee who knew the Torah by heart, we must wrestle honestly with how these fit together. We must submit to Scripture (ministerial reasoning) rather than forcing Scripture into our philosophical boxes (magisterial reasoning). The complexity is real, and we're called to accept both truths even when we can't fully reconcile them with human logic.A Significant Freedom - The Spirit Works Like the WindWhen Christ tells Nicodemus that the Spirit "blows where it wills" like the wind, He's making a crucial point: we cannot control, predict, or harness God's work. The Greek/Hebrew word for wind and spirit is the same (pneuma), creating an intentional wordplay. Just as we don't fully understand or control the wind despite our scientific advances, we cannot determine when or how the Spirit will work in regeneration. We cannot control the wind. We cannot control the Spirit. This is both humbling and liberating for ministers and believers alike. We cannot twist God's hand or guarantee results through the perfect methodology or sermon. God normally works through the preaching of the gospel in the context of the church, but even this has exceptions. We immediately think of the thief on the cross, who likely never attended synagogue, given his lifestyle. The reference to being "born of water and the Spirit" points back to Old Testament promises in Ezekiel 36:27-28 and Jeremiah 31:31 about God giving His people new hearts. Christ rebukes Nicodemus as a "teacher of Israel" for not recognizing these prophetic promises. Christ is not primarily using water to teach about baptism, forcing God's hand, but about the Messiah as the one who confirms the new age. Christ is confirming the covenantal promises as predicted by Ezekiel. So, he is upset because Nicodemus should know this prophecy. He should see that Christ is the confirmation of God's promises. A Significant Consolation - Our Hope Rests in Christ, Not OurselvesHere's where the pastoral beauty of the Canons shines through. God's call in passages like John 3:16 and Matthew 11:28 ("Come to me, all you who are weary") is absolutely sincere. Christ is issuing a genuine invitation to all people to believe in Christ. We cannot know how many will be saved, and we shouldn't limit God's work. The call goes out to everyone.Yet there's profound consolation in knowing that when we do bow the knee to Christ, it's because we've been born from above by the Spirit. In moments of struggle, doubt, and anguish, we do not hope in the strength of our faith or our ability to persevere. Our confidence rests in Christ, in His Spirit, and in His power to uphold us until the end. God doesn't just dangle an unattainable carrot; He guarantees that the seed of the woman will enter His rest. When Christ teaches Nicodemus that His people will truly respond in faith through the Spirit's power, then we can be assured that we believe in Christ's power and not our own. Our confidence should never be in ourselves. ConclusionThe Canons of Dordt is honest in that it paints an unflattering picture of humanity: we're wretches who hate God and don't want to turn to Him. But it simultaneously reveals God's astounding mercy. God restrains sin, publishes the gospel, gives His Son, and calls all to believe in Christ. The assurance is simple yet profound: if you take hold of Christ by faith, He is your Redeemer and Savior. You have life in Him. Your sins are taken away in Him. We're not believing in our faith or in ourselves. We believe in Christ, who is the source of hope and gives the gift of faith. This is the "yes and amen" from the Canons: our ultimate consolation is found in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Let us walk in him believing we will overcome by His Power.

This episode of Rick and Elaine Discuss the Book of Job is one of the most emotionally weighty and theologically rich conversations in the series so far. From the opening point on, we slow down and allow Job chapter 3 to speak for itself, carefully distinguishing between narrative prose and dense Hebrew poetry, and feel the raw grief rather than rush past it. We honor the honesty of Job's lament, showing that Scripture does not shy away from despair, confusion, or the cry of a righteous sufferer who feels crushed by loss. By drawing thoughtful connections to Genesis, Jeremiah, the Psalms, and ultimately the incarnation of Christ, we frame Job's anguish within the larger biblical story of creation, de-creation, redemption, and the new creation IN Christ Jesus, without softening the pain or offering shallow answers.We openly acknowledge how grief, loss, and suffering distort our perception of life itself, and we invite you to sit with Job's words rather than explain them away. Our discussion gently but clearly points to Christ as the answer Job longed for, not by dismissing Job's darkness, but by showing how Jesus fulfills the hope that Job could only glimpse. This is not a lecture or a debate, but a shared wrestling with Scripture that encourages honesty before God, patience with suffering, and confidence that the Redeemer truly lives. For anyone walking through grief, studying Job, or longing for a deeper, more compassionate approach to Scripture, especially during this holiday season and the New Year approaching, this episode is both challenging and deeply comforting.If you'd like to watch this in video form, as well as episodes already released, hop on over to our Patreon page!

Only Know One Thing 1 Corinthians 2 The Fifth Sunday of Epiphany Sunday, February 8, 2026 The Rev. Andrew DeFusco, Rector Church of the Redeemer, Nashville, TN www.Redeemer-Nashville.net

In this episode, we discuss the significance of the name of Jesus.

God often provides rescue through the faithful actions of others. Redemption is notsomething we earn, but something extended through a person He appoints to act onour behalf. This points forward to the ultimate Redeemer, whose work secures hopeand restoration for all who trust Him.

We can only rest if we trust God. In Exodus 16 God is teaching his people to trust him by providing them daily bread. Just enough for each day. They had to let go of their anxiety about what they would eat tomorrow and trust that he would provide for them.

The King ArrivesMark 1:1-15Rev. Michael Craddock

Matthew 16:13-2813Now when Jesus came into the district of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, “Who do people say that the Son of Man is?” 14And they said, “Some say John the Baptist, others say Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” 15He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” 16Simon Peter replied, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” 17And Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven. 18And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. 19I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.” 20Then he strictly charged the disciples to tell no one that he was the Christ.21 rom that time Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised. 22And Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him, saying, “Far be it from you, Lord! This shall never happen to you.” 23But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me. For you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of man.”24Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. 25For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. 26For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what shall a man give in return for his soul? 27For the Son of Man is going to come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will repay each person according to what he has done. 28Truly, I say to you, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.”

Naomi's attitude has gone from bitter to hopeful as she guides Ruth towards Boaz. Knowing he's a redeemer, Naomi encourages her daughter in law, and Ruth listens. Often God can feel distant, we can feel in the dark, but the Lord is always at work in His providence. Noting happens apart from His will and plan, even when we can't see it.

Audio Recording Sermon OutlineSpeaker: Rev. Scott StrickmanSermon Series: Maturing in ChristColossians 3:5-11 (ESV)5 Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry. 6 On account of these the wrath of God is coming. 7 In these you too once walked, when you were living in them. 8 But now you must put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and obscene talk from your mouth. 9 Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old self with its practices 10 and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator. 11 Here there is not Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave, free; but Christ is all, and in all.Sermon OutlineMaturing in the fulness of the life Jesus invites us into requires intentionally putting an end to former ways.1. What is the problem?v5 “what is earthly in you”v5 “covetousness, which is idolatry”v5 “sexual immorality…”vv8-9 “anger…”v6 “On account of these the wrath of God is coming”2. How do you address it?v5 “Put to death”v8 “put them all away”vv9-10 “put off the old self with its practices”3. Why is this important?v11 “but Christ is all, and in all”v10 “the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator”v11 “Here there is not…”Prayer of ConfessionOur Creator, Redeemer and Sustainer: you invite us to seek the things that are above, but we have oriented our lives towards the things of earth. We confess we have been covetous. We have been ruled by selfish desires. We have fixated on things people have, and have treated people as though they were things. We are guilty of the very ways you have warned us to put aside. Our lips have exposed that our hearts are not right. Forgive every expression of sin, and free us from the power and presence of sin within us. We turn to you, receiving the life of Christ through faith, and commit to walking in him. Amen.Questions for ReflectionDoes it seem that the world that you see and experience is all that there is? How do people live when they assume there is nothing beyond this world and that life ends when you die? What changes with the belief that there is a God we can know and that we are eternal beings?What are some good things that are natural to you (desires, instincts, habits)? What are some problematic things?How does corruption make good desires harmful? What happens when people are controlled by problematic desires? What is the impact?What are helpful ways of trying to control problematic desires? What should we avoid?Which model for dealing with your sin is most appealing to you: fighting it/going to war to defeat it (put to death); putting it away (recognizing it needs to be contained and dealt with); putting it off (like changing an old garment)? Are you neglecting any of the means or approaches? Why?What happens if you focus only on the good things offered in Christianity and pay no attention to the hard work of dealing with sin? What happens if your focus becomes dealing with sin and you ignore the positive aspects of looking to God with hope and for satisfaction?What does it mean that Jesus offers us a “new self” which is being renewed after the image of its creator? What are simply implications of “being renewed”? What are reasonable expectations for a maturing/growing life?
