This talk was a one-off talk in the AM Service. Text: Genesis 1:26-31; 2:15-25 Date: 4 May 2025 Speaker: Josh van der Kooij
Text: Genesis 4:1-26 The Righteous Attitude of Worshipping God (Genesis 4:1-4) God graciously provides Adam and Eve with two sons: Cain and Abel. Abel is portrayed as the one who brought an acceptable offering to the Lord with the right heart attitude. In the New Testament, Abel's offering and his actions toward God are declared as righteous (Hebrews 11:4; 1 John 3:12b). The Ruinous Outcome of Worshipping Self (Genesis 4:3, 5-24) Cain worshipped God on his terms with a selfish attitude of pride. Cain's angry response to God's correction and murder revealed his worship of self. God's warning and condemnation was also mingled with grace. In the New Testament, “the way of Cain” is portrayed as a pursuit of personal gain marked by evil (Jude 11; 1 John 3:12a). The Redemptive Plan of Our Sovereign God (Genesis 4:25-26) Even in the midst of murder and revenge, God's plan to save His people cannot be thwarted. God appoints the line of Seth for the Messiah to come and call true worshippers to Himself. Consider Christ, “the mediator of the new covenant,” who atoned for our sin with His own blood (Hebrews 12:24).

Text: Genesis 35; VariousTheme: Broken relationships when healed and mended are a powerful display of what God's grace can do in and through us. This week Jacob returns to his brother and all the while, God is with him.Key Verses: Genesis 35:2-3 (NLT) So Jacob told everyone in his household, “Get rid of all your pagan idols, purify yourselves, and put on clean clothing. 3We are now going to Bethel, where I will build an altar to the God who answered my prayers when I was in distress. He has been with me wherever I have gone.”Message Notes: https://www.bible.com/events/49406952

Fortunately, God is there with us, even when the unimaginable happens.Key Verses: Genesis 34:7 (NLT) Meanwhile, Jacob's sons had come in from the field as soon as they heard what had happened. They were shocked and furious that their sister had been raped.

Text: Genesis 3:7-24 The Destructive Outcome of Sin (Gen. 3:7-13) When we choose to sin, we experience guilt and shame. When we choose to sin, we hide from the consequences. When we choose to sin, we blame others. Gospel implication: Christ died in our place and took our punishment. The Devastating Curse of Sin (Gen. 3:14-19) God pronounces a curse on the snake and the ground because of sin. God pronounces ongoing consequences of sin in child-bearing, relationships, and work. Gospel Implication: God promised that a Redeemer would come to crush our enemy and conquer sin. The Divine Judgment For Sin (Gen. 3:20-24) Clinging to the hope of God's promise, Adam gives his wife the name Eve (“life-giver”). God clothed Adam and Eve in garments of skin to cover their nakedness. God drove out Adam and Eve from the Garden, signifying the breach of fellowship that had taken place. Gospel Implication: In Christ we are given new life, eternally forgiven, clothed in His righteousness, and welcomed into His kingdom.

What does it mean to stay faithful when every right choice drags you deeper into hardship? In this episode, we dive into the story of Joseph—Genesis' final act (Genesis 37-50)—a rollercoaster of betrayal, integrity, and redemption that ties together the book's earliest threads. From a pit of jealousy to Egypt's throne, Joseph's life doesn't just echo the struggles of Cain, Noah, and Eden—it casts a shadow of the Savior to come. Join Russell Aspinwall as we unpack how this favored son, sold for silver and raised to save his betrayers, reveals God's promise in the mess of human failure. How do we hold fast when integrity feels like a burden? This 27-minute journey through Joseph's story might just change how you see faith in your own life.Text: Genesis 37-50 (NET Bible)Follow: Subscribe for more biblical deep dives!Connect: Find Russell on Instagram (@russellaspinwall), X (@RussAspinwall), or Facebook (Russell Aspinwall).
Text: Genesis 3:1-24, John 3:14-18, Numbers 21:4-9Lead: Why is our world so broken? Why do we struggle with sin, suffering, and separation from God? The answer lies in the very beginning—in the Garden of Eden. This week, we dive into Genesis 3 and uncover the tragic moment when humanity fell into sin. But even in the midst of judgment, God's grace shines through. From before the very first sin, He had a plan—a promise of redemption through Jesus Christ.
Text: Genesis 32:1-32; VariousTheme: What does it mean to wrestle with God? Jacob did it. This week we'll find out what we can do when life hurts and we don't see the light at the end of the tunnel.Key Verses: Genesis 32:10 (NLT) “I am not worthy of all the unfailing love and faithfulness you have shown to me, your servant. When I left home and crossed the Jordan River, I owned nothing except a walking stick. Now my household fills two large camps!”Message Notes: https://www.bible.com/events/49396478
Text: Genesis 3:1-7 Satan's Deceitful Devices (Genesis 3:1-5) Satan is the crafty serpent in the Garden of Eden (Revelation 12:9). Satan strategy involves attacking and distorting God's Word. Satan's goal is for us to doubt and disobey God's Word Man's Defiant Disobedience (Genesis 3:6-7) Adam and Eve disobeyed God's Word in unbelief, seeking their own moral autonomy. Adam and Eve's sinful pattern in Genesis 3 is paralleled for us in James 1:13-16 and 1 John 2:15-17. God's Promised Savior (Romans 5:12-17) Through one man's (Adam) sin, death has passed to all of us and reigns over us. Through the Gospel of Christ, we can be justified by grace and live eternally with Him.

God's Providential Design in Creating Us to Work (Genesis 2:8-17) God placed man in the Garden of Eden with abundant provision and beauty.

Text: Genesis 2:1-3 Divine Rest Inaugurated in God's Finished Work of Creation God finished His work of creation. God rested from His work of creation. God blessed and sanctified the seventh day. Our Eternal Rest Fulfilled in Christ's Finished Work of Redemption The theme of God's rest is seen in the future rest that awaits those who belong to God in salvation. Because of Christ's death and resurrection, we can enter His eternal rest through faith in Christ and repentance (Hebrews 3:7-4:13). Christ calls us to find rest for our souls in Him alone (Matthew 11:27-30).
Text: Genesis 29; VariousTheme: “It's not fair!” We start crying this pretty early on in life.

Text: Genesis 1:26-31 As God's Image-Bearers, We Represent Him on the Earth (1:26-27) God made us after His image and likeness, distinct from the rest of creation. God made us male and female for His glory. Implication: Our value and identity are tied to bearing the image of God. Therefore, we should seek after Him and bear His image in a way that pleases Him. As God's Image-Bearers, We Fill and Rule Over the Earth (1:26b, 28-30) God has given us the responsibility of reproducing His image on the earth. God has provided us with sustenance from His creation and given us the responsibility of dominion over His creation. Implication: This blessing and commission God has given us should lead us to delight in Him and depend upon Him. Conclusion: “God saw that it was very good.” (1:31) All that God made was good in His sight, with nothing incomplete or imperfect. All of creation worked in perfect harmony as God had designed.

Pastor Andy Cass Life is full of hurdles—tests, trials, and temptations—but God calls us to jump, not retreat. In this message, Pastor Andy Cass challenges us to embrace the obstacles ahead, train with endurance, and trust God's process of refinement. TEXT: Genesis 12:4, Genesis 22:1, Exodus 15:25, Exodus 16:4, Exodus 20:18-21, John 16:33, Hebrews 12:1-2 NOTES: Big Idea: Tests are not meant to ruin you; they are meant to prune you. Three Hurdles in Life: Tests (from God) – Strengthen and refine us. Trials (from life) – Unexpected challenges that require perseverance. Temptations (from the enemy) – Often heightened during tests and trials. Hurdle Mindset: Don't turn around—finish the race. Don't go under—shortcuts lead to failure. Don't go around—stay in your lane. Don't power through—jump with faith and obedience. Lift One Foot over the hurdle at a time Call to Action: Stretch, train, and be intentional. Find community (team) and hope. Position yourself as both a runner and a cheerleader. Final Thought: “Tests are not meant to break you; they are meant to shape you.” Jump—God is preparing you for the race ahead!

Pastor Andy Are you driven by blessings, survival, or something greater? Pastor unpacks the story of Abram to challenge us to examine our motives and kickstart a life focused on thriving and blessing others. TEXT: Genesis 12:2-10, James 4:1-3, Psalm 51:10 NOTES: "If you're not careful, the reason you started can easily change—or even be lost—due to circumstances or opportunities." "Blessings or survival are never great long-term motivators." "Jesus invites us to more than survival: You're not just here to make it through; you're here to thrive." “I thrive when I strive, when I am pressing on toward something. And the minute I start arriving is the minute I start dying.” -AJ Swoboda Practical Application: 1. Prayer: "Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me." (Psalm 51:10) 2. Engage with Scripture: Reading the Bible four times a week reshapes motives and builds discipline.
Pastor Andy Cass Starting something new is hard, but boldness is the critical ingredient to pressing "go" in life. Join us as we explore how persistence, courage, and faith can help you step through the doors God is calling you to walk through in 2025. TEXT: Genesis 12:1-3, Luke 11:5-13, Proverbs 24:16, Micah 7:8, Psalm 37:23-24 NOTES: THE BIG IDEA: Without boldness you may never see the blessing The 3 Critical Questions When Pressing Go: -Am I knocking on the right door? -Have I counted the cost? -Is the time right? "Courage is not the absence of fear but the ability to act in spite of it." — Mark Twain "Boldness doesn't mean reckless. It means calculated risks for meaningful results." — Anonymous
