Sin brings death and death brings fear and sorrow. People are afraid, if not by death itself, by the process of dying. Wordly wisdom tries to dilute this fear and comfort us by saying that death is a part of life. But when parents stand over the graves of their children, worldly wisdom rings hollow. […]

Who is God? What is He like? Our text today, Moses encounters the goodness and glory of the Lord. In light of this encounter with God we learn that God is both glorious and good, transcended and immanent, high and lifted up and near. There is none like Him. Preacher: Ethan BolyardScripture: Exodus 34:4-9; 2 […]

There are two great needs in the Christian life: salvation and assurance. We need to be saved because apart from God’s grace we are powerless, weak and hopeless. And we need assurance because even after salvation we are still prone to be doubtful, trembling and fearful. The same thing was true of the woman today […]

This Psalm is a call to worship. Its scope is as broad as the whole earth. Pastor Lacy teaches us what it means for all the earth to make a joyful noise to the Lord. Preacher: Lacy AndrewsScripture: Psalm 100Series: Stand alone

When you look at the world, you realize that it is full of sin and misery. The apostle Paul says that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs until now. So what is there to be joyful about? God answered that question 2,000 in the backwater of the Middle East. At that time, […]

How does the kingdom of God grow? If you look out at the world you may wonder to yourself, “is the kingdom of Jesus growing at all?” On the one hand the devil seems to be everywhere.
