Making Christ Known

In this episode, Pastor Eric preaches a message of the resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Eric invites us to celebrate the Savior every day, giving all praise to Christ our King. Easter—and the Christian life—is about a heart that is changed by Jesus. We come to Christ as sinful people, but we can leave as new creatures in Him because of His victory over the grave. Where are you turning? Are you turning from the grave to grace? Are you turning to the resurrected Christ?

In this episode, Pastor Eric preaches another message about Jesus' words on the cross. Jesus' death fulfilled many prophetic Scriptures and demonstrated God's eternal plan of salvation for those who believe. Christ's crucifixion also revealed His Godship and humanity. As Isaiah 53 says, "the chastisement of our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed." Let us learn to drink deeply from Christ our Savior.

In this episode, Pastor Eric preaches about Jesus' words from the cross. Though Jesus took on the sins of the entire world—past, present, and future—He addressed others while facing and experiencing His crucifixion. Jesus presents words of comfort, compassion, and warning as He urges those He loved to seek forgiveness. Have you sought forgiveness from God? Have you accepted Jesus' gift of salvation, given freely to those who believe? Jesus is the only merciful and forgiving Messiah; trust Him today.

In this episode, Pastor Eric preaches from Psalms 61 and 62 about finding relief in the Lord. Often times, we are quick to place hope in finding relief from other sources: health, money, power, addictions...sources that will fall short of satisfaction. Do you find refuge in the strength and supremacy of God? We will be shaken in life, but the Lord strengthens us so that we are not greatly shaken. Listen and ponder as Eric preaches of trusting in the Lord for relief at all times in your life.

In this episode, Pastor Eric preaches from Philippians 1 about the purpose of the believer's walk and the message of the Christian life: Christ, community, and courage. During difficult times, it can be easy to fall away from the principles of our faith. We are called as servants and saints of Christ Jesus, set apart for His works. What else matters? What idols can we remove from our lives to magnify Christ more? Make Christ central in your life!

In this episode, Pastor Eric preaches from multiple passages about the signs of redemption through the miracles of Christ. While these miracles blessed people's lives then, their purpose was to point to Jesus as Messiah. What do the miracles mean to us? Do they tell us something more? Join us as we examine the purpose of Jesus' miracles and their foreshadowing of God's Kingdom to come. 

In this episode, Pastor Eric preaches from John 13-16 about the Holy Spirit as our Counsellor, Comforter, and Instructor. Since the Holy Spirit is always centered on Christ and Scripture, if you are truly filled with the Spirit, you should be also. Are you reflecting those attributes? Have you experienced the convicting and convincing power of the Holy Spirit? In times of fear and anxiety, we pray that you can find peace by submitting to the Spirit of Truth.

In this episode, Pastor Eric preaches from Matthew 15 about the faith of the Canaanite Woman. Jesus honors persistent faith. Do we seek Christ diligently, no matter what obstacles stand in our way? His love toward us is persistent, and our faith toward Him should be also. Times of difficulty may prove us weak in our persistence. However, let us use trials to push forward in our faith, following Christ with steadfastness.

In this episode, we look at Luke 10 about the seventy-two ambassadors Jesus sent out to complete His mission and discipleship. Why do we exist as people set apart? Pastor Eric lays out seven attributes Christians should have as disciple-makers. Above all, let us honor God with our lives, always being ready to follow where God leads.

In this episode, Pastor Eric preaches from the book of James about the snares of the devil. Religious pride boasts Christian self-righteousness and the judgement of others, while worldly pride boasts entitlement and self-sufficiency. While listening, consider this quote by Christian theologian C.S. Lewis: "A proud man is always looking down on things and people; and, of course, as long as you are looking down, you cannot see something that is above you."
