The Sixth sermon in our series: "Bringing Clarity to Confusion"Scripture: Genesis 3:1-13Dr. Nick FloydSenior Pastor

Scripture: Genesis 18:16-33 Key Takeaways: + God is a comprehensive judge + God is a just judge Genesis 15:6 Psalm 32:1 + God is a merciful judge Isaiah 53:11- 12 Hebrews 7:25 John 15:15-16

Joseph's career was going along fairly well. He'd risen from servanthood to becoming, in a sense, the Chief Operating Officer of a huge estate. And then sex came. He wasn't even looking for it, but it came at him. Things may be going very well for you, but sex will come—and it's such a powerful force that how you handle it can make or break you. From Genesis 39, we can learn about what we're going to call lust. We learn something from what we see Potiphar's wife doing, we learn something from what we see Joseph doing, and we learn from what we see God doing.  Let's look at 1) how to understand lust, 2) how to handle it, and 3) how to heal it. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on March 12, 1995. Series: The Seven Deadly Sins. Scripture: Genesis 39:4-21.

The fifth sermon in our series: "Bringing Clarity to Confusion"Scripture: Genesis 2:24-25Series: Genesis - Relationship RolesDr. Nick FloydSenior Pastor

Scripture: Genesis 18:1-15 Key Takeaways: Ephesians 3:20 + God's presence is the guarantee of God's promises 2 Corinthians 1:20-22 “I regard myself as the most wretched of all men, stinking and covered with sores, and as one who has committed all sorts of crimes against his King. Overcome by remorse, I confess all my wickedness to Him, ask His pardon and abandon myself entirely to Him to do with as He will. But this King, filled with goodness and mercy, far from chastising me, lovingly embraces me, makes me eat at His table, serves me with His own hands, gives me the keys of His treasures and treats me as His favorite. He talks with me and is delighted with me in a thousand and one ways; He forgives me and relieves me of my principle bad habits without talking about them; I beg Him to make me according to His heart and always the more weak and despicable I see myself to be, the more beloved I am of God.” – Brother Lawrence Hebrews 5:12-6:1 James 1:2-4

Work in Hong Kong can feel overwhelming—long hours, crowded commutes, constant pressure. Yet from the very beginning, God showed us that work was meant to be meaningful, not draining. Genesis 2:15 says, “The LORD God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it.” Work was part of God's good design—a way to bring life, nurture, and joy. True happiness isn't just about achieving more, but about finding purpose in the tasks God has entrusted to us. If you are new to Community Church, WELCOME! We would love to get to know you.

Spiritual Formation: Sabbath - Pastor Hannah Witte - a2vc.org. Like us on fb.com/vineyardannarboror watch our livestream Sundays @ 11:00am - vimeo.com/annarborvineyard  Summary: Pastor Hannah continued our Spiritual Transformation series by teaching on Sabbath as God's generous gift of rest, joy, and worship. Framing Sabbath through Exodus 20:8–11, she emphasized that “holy” means set apart for a special purpose—and that time itself is the first thing called holy in Scripture (Genesis 2:3). Sabbath (from Shabbat) invites us to stop, rest, delight, and enjoy God, not as a legal burden but as wisdom that forms us into a people who live differently in a hurried world. She highlighted the biblical justice woven into Sabbath: everyone is included in God's rest—children, workers, immigrants, even animals. Using a chiastic reading of Exodus 20, Pastor Hannah showed how the command centers on extending rest beyond ourselves so no one's Sabbath comes at another's expense. An on-stage conversation illustrated the longing and challenge many feel for real, regular rest—and the hope of sharing it widely. Pastor Hannah closed with practical guidance for beginning Sabbath at a humane pace: start small (a few hours or a morning), practice with others for accountability, plan lightly around the four filters (stop, rest, delight, enjoy God), and hold the practice with grace. Transformation costs more than insight, she noted, but Sabbath reorders our lives toward freedom, joy, and generosity—forming us into a community that both receives and extends God's rest.

Genesis 22 | Pastor Adam BowersIn this message, we explore one of the most difficult and powerful passages in the Bible: Genesis 22, where God tests Abraham by asking him to sacrifice his son Isaac.Why would a good God issue such a command? Is this a contradiction in the character of God? And how does this ancient story connect to the gospel and God's grace today?We'll look at:The real purpose behind God's testHow Abraham's faith points to a deeper trust in God's promisesThe significance of the substitute sacrificeWhat this moment reveals about God's plan of redemption through JesusThis passage challenges us to wrestle with tough questions, but also reveals the heart of God's love and mercy. Watch to discover how faith, grace, and obedience all come together in this pivotal story.Scripture: Genesis 22:1-19

Description: Every family has culture and tradition — and the family of God is no different. From the very beginning, God's heart has been to create a family that multiplies, flourishes, and reflects His glory.In this message, Pastor Timothy walks us through Genesis 1–11, showing how God is the fountain of family, how sin breaks families apart, and how Jesus restores us into God's new family through the gospel. From creation to Cain and Abel, from Babel to Pentecost, we discover that the Church is meant to be an irresistible family and an unstoppable force for God's kingdom.

"Restoring the Generations Identity in Christ" Scripture: Genesis 3:1-11Apostle Suzanne M Howard

How does the gospel affect your work?  We're in a series where we're asking, “What happens when you take the gospel, the basic message of Jesus Christ, out of the church and into the world?” One of the things that happens is it affects the way in which you do your work. And there's no way to see the Christian understanding of work without going to Genesis 1, 2, and 3. I'd like to show you three things Genesis tells us about your work: 1) it gives you a vision for work, 2) it gives you guardrails for your work, and 3) it gives you a power to do your work. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on October 10, 2010. Series: The Gospel and the World. Scripture: Genesis 1:26-28; 2:2-17.

At first glance, Issachar and his descendants seem to be overlooked in the Bible. However, careful examination shows that they were men of means, men of might, and men of understanding and discernment. As a type, they show us that no one is small or insignificant to God. He sees our hearts and our commitment, and He has called us for a purpose.
