Preaching Point: Recognizing the compassionate authority of the Son of David should cause us to unashamedly depend on his mercy as we follow him daily.Text: Matthew 20:29-34 (ESV) 29 And as they went out of Jericho, a great crowd followed him. 30 And behold, there were two blind men sitting by the roadside, and when they heard that Jesus was passing by, they cried out, “Lord,[a] have mercy on us, Son of David!” 31 The crowd rebuked them, telling them to be silent, but they cried out all the more, “Lord, have mercy on us, Son of David!” 32 And stopping, Jesus called them and said, “What do you want me to do for you?” 33 They said to him, “Lord, let our eyes be opened.” 34 And Jesus in pity touched their eyes, and immediately they recovered their sight and followed him.

As Jesus begins His public ministry, His message is one of repentance and belief.  He then calls disciples to follow Him.  Fishermen who were called to be fishers of men.  There are many different callings in life.  As we explore the call of the disciples, we can also look at how God calls us, because when people come up to Jesus and say, "I will follow you" most of the time it doesn't work out in their favor.

As we further talk about callings in life, Jesus gives the Beatitudes.  Each of them start with the word "blessed."  As Jesus calls us to faith, calls us to follow Him, we are blessed whatever we go through in life, even if it means persecution.  What He has also promised us in our callings in life, whatever they may be, is that He is with us always, every step of the way.

When we think about callings in life, sometimes we might ask God for a sign, a direction, a word spoken to us to help us figure things out, what He wants for us.  God does speak to us, in His Word, and His Word tells us that there are those who will come along and give false words and false signs to lead us astray.  His Word does tell us what He wants, and His Word also tells us who we are.  In the Gospel of Matthew Jesus says you are salt and light.

Text: Matthew 17:1-9

Have you ever meant well but found yourself over-managing, correcting, or directing too much? In the Transfiguration story, Peter does exactly that. He means well, but he hasn't learned how to listen. This episode is about listening and guidance, and how we're often led by our impulses instead of by God.  Text Matthew 17. Pod 285      

What if one of the most neglected spiritual practices in Western Christianity is actually one of the most powerful? Do you want to experience real spiritual change in your life? Do you long to see revival?

Preaching Point: We must pursue greatness not by amassing power and authority, or by seeking greater status, but by serving and sacrificing for others as Christ did for us.Text: Matthew 20:20–28 (ESV) 20 Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came up to him with her sons, and kneeling before him she asked him for something. 21 And he said to her, “What do you want?” She said to him, “Say that these two sons of mine are to sit, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your kingdom.” 22 Jesus answered, “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I am to drink?” They said to him, “We are able.” 23 He said to them, “You will drink my cup, but to sit at my right hand and at my left is not mine to grant, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father.” 24 And when the ten heard it, they were indignant at the two brothers. 25 But Jesus called them to him and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. 26 It shall not be so among you. But whoever would be great among you must be your servant, 27 and whoever would be first among you must be your slave, 28 even as the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”

Preaching Point: God's kids must recognize God's sovereign right to dispense grace as he chooses, while celebrating his generosity toward others rather than resenting those who receive his favor.Text: Matthew 20:17–19 (ESV) 17 And as Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, he took the twelve disciples aside, and on the way he said to them, 18 “See, we are going up to Jerusalem. And the Son of Man will be delivered over to the chief priests and scribes, and they will condemn him to death 19 and deliver him over to the Gentiles to be mocked and flogged and crucified, and he will be raised on the third day.”

Francis Schaeffer said, "Ideas have consequences." If people believe false ideas, they inevitably act on them in disastrous ways. The only solution to such false ideas is to replace them with the truth. Theology and doctrine matter. In this series, we will work through essential doctrines for followers of Jesus to understand as they strive to follow Jesus. This week, we unpack the Doctrine of Eternity and the final judgment from Matthew 25. Text: Matthew 25:31-46 ESV Speaker: Michael Bayne

Preaching Point: God's kids must recognize God's sovereign right to dispense grace as he chooses, while celebrating his generosity toward others rather than resenting those who receive his favor.Text: Matthew 20:1–16 (ESV) 1 “For the kingdom of heaven is like a master of a house who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard. 2 After agreeing with the laborers for a denarius a day, he sent them into his vineyard. 3 And going out about the third hour he saw others standing idle in the marketplace, 4 and to them he said, ‘You go into the vineyard too, and whatever is right I will give you.' 5 So they went. Going out again about the sixth hour and the ninth hour, he did the same. 6 And about the eleventh hour he went out and found others standing. And he said to them, ‘Why do you stand here idle all day?' 7 They said to him, ‘Because no one has hired us.' He said to them, ‘You go into the vineyard too.' 8 And when evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his foreman, ‘Call the laborers and pay them their wages, beginning with the last, up to the first.' 9 And when those hired about the eleventh hour came, each of them received a denarius. 10 Now when those hired first came, they thought they would receive more, but each of them also received a denarius. 11 And on receiving it they grumbled at the master of the house, 12 saying, ‘These last worked only one hour, and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden of the day and the scorching heat.' 13 But he replied to one of them, ‘Friend, I am doing you no wrong. Did you not agree with me for a denarius? 14 Take what belongs to you and go. I choose to give to this last worker as I give to you. 15 Am I not allowed to do what I choose with what belongs to me? Or do you begrudge my generosity?' 16 So the last will be first, and the first last.”

Text: Matthew 18:15-35Forgiveness can be very difficult and something we may not want to do, yet Scripture presents it as a central mark of life in Christ. In this Sunday's sermon passage, we will consider Jesus' parable of the unforgiving servant and examine how withholding forgiveness places us in a prison of our own making, while releasing others entrusts justice to God. Nestled within this warning is a gracious invitation: those who have been forgiven much are called to walk in the freedom Christ has secured for them.

Text: Matthew 5:3; variousTheme: We don't come to Jesus for a little help to make our life a little better. We come to Him ready to acknowledge we need a total overhaul.

When Joseph first heard that his fiancee was pregnant, he graciously decided to quietly break the engagement. Then an angel showed up! As the angel described to Joseph what God was doing and what God wanted from Him, Joseph had a decision to make. Would he go the way that seemingly made sense and everyone else would have gone? Or would his trade his plan for another? What if trading your plan for God's plan is what Christmas is all about? Text: Matthew 1:18-25 Speaker: Aaron Patton
