Cross of Grace Church Sermons

Jesus is the true vine; his followers are the branches. What does that mean? Listen to Pastor Adam preach on John 15:1-17 as he explores the nature and results of abiding in Jesus, ultimately encouraging us to abide in Jesus Christ.

The night before the cross, Jesus assured His disciples that He will come back to take them to His Father’s house. But what will life look like between His departure and His return? In John 14:12-31, Jesus gives 7 benefits to His departure for his disciples, showing us that Jesus has provided His disciples with everything we need as we await His return.

Jesus’ disciples are troubled as they anticipate Jesus departing from them the night before the cross. Into that troubled state Jesus speaks words of comfort to them, teaching us that the Son who is united with the Father is the sure Way to the Father.

As Jesus anticipates the cross, he shares one last evening with his disciples. In that conversation that begins with this passage, he prepares his disciples for his departure, and his first command to them in his absence is that they love one another.

The night before Jesus’ crucifixion, he washed his disciples’ feet. What is the significance of this surprising act of humble service? In this sermon, Pastor Adam reintroduces our series through the Gospel of John and shows us from Jesus’ foot-washing followed by Judas’ betrayal that the unwashed must be washed, the washed must wash, and even the unwashed must obey.

What a house is built on is the most important part of its construction. In Matthew 7:24-27, Jesus uses an illustration of two different types of foundations that a person can build their life on. Listen to this special message on Cross of Grace’s 1-year anniversary and its first morning service as Jesus shows us that when the storm comes, the house built on Christ will stand, while all others will fall.

What type of praise does God deserve? Listen to Pastor Adam wrap up our Psalms of David series as he preaches Psalm 145, showing us that the incomprehensibly great God deserves comprehensive praise.

Are you happy? Do you think it’s possible to be truly happy? In Psalm 32, David teaches us the way of true happiness, showing us that to cover your sin leads to misery, but to have it covered brings joy.

What needs to happen for you to be forgiven of your sin against God? David instructs us by example in Psalm 51 how a sin-stained man can go to God to receive mercy and cleansing from his sin, showing us that if we want to be forgiven, God Himself must cleanse us.

Do you think of yourself as worthy or unworthy in relation to God? Listen to Mike Nixon preach from Psalm 21, showing us that the unbeliever is worthy of judgment, while the believer is unworthy of blessing, but receives it by God’s grace in Christ.
