In this sermon, Isaac concludes our series in Jonah by reflecting on God's power and patience. God be praised, there is hope for us to be changed as the people of Nineveh were -- if we believe and repent.

Jonah 2 / Isaac Adams

Isaac preaches Jonah 2 and takes us graveside, as Jonah does in the text. Yet we approach the grave with hope because we know that in Christ, death is only a comma, not a period in the sentence of our lives.

Jonah 1 / Isaac Adams

Through the first chapter of the book of Jonah, Isaac points us to the main character of the story of Jonah - God, Who Calls - and invites us to listen and respond to the Lord, even when He calls us to show radical love to our enemies.

Acts 11:23 / Isaac Adams

In his first official sermon as the installed lead pastor, Isaac encourages and exhorts the congregation of Iron City Church, following Barnabas’ example when he visited the church in Antioch.

Dr. Mark Dever, senior pastor of Capitol Hill Baptist Church, preaches a special ceremonial sermon to install the new lead pastor of Iron City Church, Isaac Adams.

Romans 15:13 / Greg Spence

Elder candidate Greg Spence speaks on the power of God’s word throughout the book of Romans and reminds us of the hope we have in Jesus. Encouraging the body to memorize and pray through scripture, Greg models these disciplines through Romans 15:13.

Luke 2:22-38 / Dustin Ratcliff

Just as Simeon and Anna had been waiting for a Savior, we should also wait expectantly on Jesus. Not passively, watching the clock and wishing away the time, but expectantly, hopefully, and worshipfully.

Luke 2:1-20 / Kam Pugh

One of the first announcements of Jesus’ miraculous birth is to a group of shepherds. Probably not soft or cuddly, respected or even valued by the society, the shepherds made an unlikely audience for the announcement of the birth of a King. However, the Lord’s humility flips the world’s social order on its head, and works miraculously through those who are weak and despised in this world.

Luke 1:26-56 / Rechab Gray

Guest preacher Rechab Gray brings life to the miraculous announcement of Jesus’ birth to Mary. We see expectation, confirmation, and celebration of Jesus’ birth, and we should likewise consider Jesus’ birth as a real event that was expected, confirmed, and should now be celebrated through our lives of worship.

Luke 1:5-24, 57-80 / Kam Pugh

The Lord breaks His 400-year silence by speaking to the priest Zechariah, miraculously promising him a son despite his old age. Just as this son, John the Baptist, will serve as a messenger pointing to the Messiah, we should also lead our lives in a way that points people to Jesus, the only true hope for this broken world.
