Does God punish us? What does that mean? How do we understand Grace from a God who punishes? Hard questions, but good ones. Pastor Dan tackles them in this sermon.

The Wilderness is a fascinating place in Scripture. God brings us to the Wilderness for a variety of different reasons. Even Jesus went to the Wilderness...where he rested for a while, and then Satan came to tempt him. What can we learn from the tempting of Jesus? What instruction do we receive from the way Jesus responds? What hope does he give us?

The world is waiting for Christ to come again. And we wait with it. Today we look at how James compares our hearts to fields waiting for the second coming of our Lord.

As Christians, we wait in hopeful expectation for when Christ comes again. But the enemy of God waits in restless frustration, lashing out at God in the ways that he can...by striking at God's people. This week we explore, briefly, the reality that Satan is also waiting for the time when Christ comes again.

Isaiah had a hard word to give Ahaz. And from that hard word a promise was given. In what ways do we need a hard word? And how do we respond to the promise? The prophets brought hard words, and then sat in the waiting. And we sit in the waiting with them.

All of Creation waits for the second coming of Christ, when he will make all things new.

Does the way the enemy is at work in our world cause us fear? May God open our eyes, as he did Elisha's servant, that we might see all that God is doing.

What expectations of have we put on others? What expectations have we put on God? Are they healthy? Are they sinful? We look at these questions in the sermon this week.

Do we ever wonder if God will work through us in the way that he has worked through those that came before us? Elisha faced that question in our text, and how God used him stands as an encouragement for us all.

Elijah gets taken up to heaven in a fiery chariot. How does Elisha feel about it? How do others feel about it? How does that relate to us?
