First Reading: Acts 1:1-11
Second Reading: Revelation 22:12-14, 16-17, 20-21
Gospel: John 17:20-26
Sermon Title: “Come, Lord Jesus!" John's vision ends with a plea and an assurance that the Lord is coming soon. We again have to understand God's view of time in relation to His promises, the hope He holds out for us, and the victory which is ours now and will be ours yet to come. We again have more connections to Genesis and Old Testament prophecies, we have dire warnings, and we have metaphors and imagery we'll be unpacking.

First Reading: Acts 11:1-18
Second Reading: Revelation 21:1-6
Gospel: Luke 24:13-27

Sermon Title: “A New Heaven and a New Earth”

Sermon Theme: The last two chapters of Revelation are packed, which is
why we’ll take the last three Sundays to look more closely at what is here.
Chapter 21 starts out with a bit of eschatology when we hear about “a new
heaven and a new earth.” That, coupled with the Lord’s statement from the
throne, “I am making everything new!” This speaks not only to End Times
but also to how we are called to live our lives today – in hope and victory!

Live this week from the perspective that YOU are one of those in white
robes, standing before the throne of God, washed in the blood of the
Lamb. Let that perspective speak to how you live, how you see yourself,
how you treat others, decisions you make, and opportunities the Lord
gives you to serve Him.

First Reading: Acts 9:1-6 (7-20)
Second Reading: Revelation 5:11-14
Gospel: John 21:1-12

Sermon Theme: Throughout the book of Revelation we have these
outbursts of song and praise and worship of the Lamb. These songs and
times of worship carry a deep significance for us still today, especially
when it comes to the hope and victory we know in the Lamb. There are
angels, people, and all creation giving honor to the Lamb.

First Reading: Acts 5:27-32
Second Reading: Revelation 1:1-11
Gospel: John 20:19-31
Sermon Title: “The Revelation from Jesus Christ”

Our Worthy is the Lamb series begins at the beginning!
John very clearly lays the groundwork for what this vision is which the
Lord gave to him. We’ll walk through what some of the details mean for
us when it comes to God’s framework of time, who his intended
“audience” is, the significance of beginning with a doxology of praise to
God, what that doxology reveals to us about who God is, and finally, how
it all got started.
