Jesus' miracles, death, and resurrection together reveal God's deliberate plan to save sinners, as Peter proclaims in his ancient sermon from Acts 2. Though Jesus was crucified by lawless men, his death occurred according to God's foreknown purpose, and his resurrection vindicated him as both Lord and Christ. Those who heard Peter were "cut to the heart" and called to repent, be baptized, and receive forgiveness and the Spirit. In this sermon, we consider how Peter's message confronts our guilt and summons us to the risen Savior.

Because of the forgetfulness of His people, the Lord commands Israel to set up memorial stones after crossing the Jordan as a lasting reminder of His power. These stones testify not only to Israel but to all peoples that the Lord is mighty and worthy of reverent fear. In this sermon, we consider the call to remember and recount God's works so that we would not forget His greatness and grow in our fear of the Lord.

As the Israelites cross the Jordan, God shows His power to deliver His people and bring them safely into the their inheritance despite what seemed like impossible circumstances. In this sermon, we consider how their crossing illustrates Christ's going before us through death into resurrection life, securing our inheritance and victory over sin through union with Him.

As the spies are sent into the Promised Land, they encounter an unlikely character, Rahab. who demonstrates remarkable faith. In this sermon, we examine Rahab's faith and highlight five essential elements of saving faith.

As Joshua takes command of the people, he calls the tribes who had received land east of the Jordan River to keep their promise to help their brothers secure their inheritance.

In this sermon, we are exhorted, following their example, to aid our brothers and sisters of the faith to attain all the precious promises in Christ.

God called Joshua on a mission to lead his people into their promised rest. This sermon points us to Christ who leads us, and to the promises He had to embrace with great courage in the face of intense opposition.

This sermon is an introduction to the book of Joshua. In it we think about how to interpret the book in the context of the Pentateuch and the book of Judges, and in the context of the entire biblical storyline, especially in light of Christ. It ends with an encouragement regarding our union with Christ.

Believers need encouragement to persevere through trials, warnings against falling into sin, and guidance for living a godly life rooted in trust in Christ. They are called to endure God's discipline, resist temptation, and actively embrace and support their fellow believers in the church. In this sermon, we consider the concluding message of Hebrews, showing how believers are to bear hardships, draw one another in, and depend fully on the sustaining grace of God.

In Luke 11:1, the disciples asked Jesus to teach them how to pray. Even though we cannot approach Christ in the same physical way the disciples once did, He has given us His Word, which contains prayers and benedictions that guide us in learning how to pray. In this sermon, we consider six elements within the benedictory prayer at the end of the book of Hebrews and how they help shape and strengthen our own prayers.

Scripture contains warnings that remind us of our responsibility to persevere in the faith, yet God provides means to help us do so. Among these means of grace is the local church, where divinely appointed leaders watch over the souls of the flock and shepherd them in the Word. In this sermon, we consider three commands for how believers are to relate faithfully to their spiritual leaders.
