Humanity is called to bear His image. New Covenant believers are called to bear His name. This sermon is about that.

This is part two: Imagine being the Apostle Paul and having to write a letter to correct the church in Corinth. Most of us would probably jump right into the long list of problems, and there were many. But Paul doesn't begin with there. Instead, he takes an entire sentence to remind them of who they are in Christ before calling them to live up to that identity. This sermon is the first part of that recalling.

This sermon begins our journey through the Apostle Paul's first letter to the church in Corinth. In this opening installment, we explore the historical and cultural background of the letter while drawing meaningful comparisons between the culture of ancient Corinth and the culture of the modern church.

This message is a reminder that God did not create us to live in worry or anxiety. Even when we feel far from Him or believe we've made a mess of things, He is El Roi—the God who sees you.

America just celebrated her 250th birthday. Can she make it to 500?

A politician may answer that question by talking about healthcare, education, the economy, or national security. But this is a pastor’s take.

If we want America to make it to her 500th birthday, there are three things we must protect, preserve, and regain.

There is a cause: a cause for creation and life itself, and a cause for our salvation. Light. Life. The cause of Christ.

That is the cause the Church must hold dear.

This message explores the cosmological argument for the existence of God and how that truth reaches down into the life of the believer.

Inaugurated Eschatology is a theological framework that helps believers understand where we are in the biblical timeline—living after the cross and awaiting the Day of the Lord. Understanding what has already been accomplished and what has not yet come, but is still to come, helps protect us from theological error and disillusionment. This message serves as a general introduction to this important theological framework.

The New Covenant has a specific locality: the heart. The heart is the inner self, the true self. It is the center of our thoughts, desires, affections, and will. It has the capacity for both good and evil, truth and deception, faith and unbelief.

The good news of the New Covenant is that God promises to give His people a new heart. This message explores the key to receiving that new heart. How can a heart of stone, toward God or toward another person, be replaced with a heart of flesh? That is the focus of this message.

Are we under the Law? The answer is yes and no. But really, that’s an incomplete question. We are under the Law of Christ (Paul’s words). In this Pentecost Sunday message, celebrating when the Law was given to Moses on Mt. Sinai, we will look at the “law” that we, as New Covenant believers, ARE under.
