Frisco Bible Church Sermons

God values rest, not because He grows weary, but because rest reflects His character and His delight in completed work. Through shabbat, we are reminded that while work is good, we must recognize our human limitations and intentionally make time for rest. True rest ultimately requires trust in Jesus, who invites the weary and burdened to find lasting rest in Him.

In Exodus 20:4–7, God calls us to worship Him alone, reminding us that idolatry is not limited to carved images but includes anything we value above our Creator. From money and success to relationships, revenge, and self, our misplaced priorities reveal how easily we turn away from true worship. Yet God’s jealousy flows from His perfect love, and through Jesus Christ, He extends hesed—His faithful, covenant love—inviting us to put away our idols and worship Him in Spirit and truth.

God graciously reveals Himself through the Ten Commandments, showing us His character, His values, and His desire for a relationship with us. As our faithful Redeemer, God alone is worthy of our complete trust, and His Word points us toward Jesus Christ. When we build our lives on His unchanging truth, we learn to trust and obey Him, allowing His values to shape our character, choices, and relationships.

Pastor Jared Coe expounds on the final passage of Song of Songs as it celebrates a love that deepens and endures over time. True love remains “as strong as death” and cannot be swept away. Solomon and his bride model a lifelong love that continues to treasure, desire, and delight in one another, reminding us to never quit loving.

Thank you for joining us in our study of the Song of Solomon.

Solomon, in his Song of Songs, reminds us that lasting love is strengthened through praise, appreciation, and delight in one another. It is integral to continue treasuring the person God has given us. As husband and wife faithfully embrace their God-given roles as partners, they become an indispensable team, encouraging one another and moving together in the direction God intends.

The Terrors of the Night, Wayne Braudrick uses the wife’s dream in Song of Songs 5:2–6:3 to explore the danger of allowing personal convenience to create distance in our closest relationships. Her fear of rejecting her husband—and her longing for him after he leaves—reminds us to value the people God has given us by choosing connection over convenience.

The marriage bed is intended by God to be a romantic celebration of the triunity composed of God-wife-husband. There is no shame in it; instead, it is a worshipful glory ordained by God for pleasure.  

This week, Pastor Wayne emphasizes that marriage is not merely a celebration or wedding ceremony but a sacred covenant designed by God. Song of Songs 3 highlights the importance of honoring, protecting, and sacrificing for marriage, while ultimately comparing the wedding ceremony to Christ’s relationship with His church and the future “marriage feast of the Lamb.”

Biblical love moves from an individual focus to a shared union, especially in marriage, where two people become one. It emphasizes that sexual desire is natural and powerful, but humans have God-given agency to manage those desires wisely and allow love to develop into a deeper, whole-life union.

Romantic love naturally brings strong emotions, physical attraction, and sexual desire, but wisdom means learning to control and direct those feelings appropriately. Instead of allowing desire to become purely physical, restraint can help couples deepen their understanding of each other and grow in character and intimacy.
