Adam Herndon | 1 Peter 1:3-9 | Peter describes a "living hope" kept for us by God's power and the resurrection of Jesus — to an inheritance that can't be destroyed, taken away, or worn out. Unlike the world's hope, which is little more than wishful thinking, this hope transforms how Christians face suffering, allowing them to find joy in the midst of trials.

Mark Booker | 1 Corinthians 15:1-11 | Christians appeal to history because the Scriptures appeal to history. History does matter. This sermon presents an historical argument for the truth of the resurrection of Jesus that can both bolster the confidence of believers and minimize barriers to belief.

Mark Booker | 1 Corinthians 15:1-5; 12-20 | This is the first sermon in a new 6-week series exploring the significance of the resurrection for the Christian life. The resurrection declares that Jesus matters. We explore how he matters for salvation, for revelation, and for sovereign rule.

Mark Booker | Matthew 27:62 - 28:15 | This Easter message explores the meaning of, the evidence for, and consequences of the bodily resurrection of Jesus. God has intervened and, like the woman at the tomb, we can have great joy.

Mark Booker | John 19:30 | This Good Friday message considers the work that was finished (and the benefits of that work for us) by Jesus's death on the cross.

Mark Booker | Matthew 26:36 - 27:61 | The silence of Jesus throughout the passion narrative reveals his love: his love for the Father and his love for us. In response to that love, we are called to follow in his footsteps, to take up our cross and follow him. This means a life of loving God and loving our neighbor.

Mark Booker | Matthew 27:15-26 | This sermon first explores lessons about leadership and personal responsibility and then explores why the crowd asked for Barabbas instead of Jesus. Unmet expectations, the influence of others, and demonic forces affected them and they can do the same to us. But thanks be to God for a merciful savior.

Mark Booker | Matthew 27:11-31 | This examination of Pilate's capitulation to the crowd reveals that this temptation remains relevant today. We consider different ways we're tempted capitulate to the culture or the crowd as well as biblical truths that strengthen our resistance to this sin.

Mark Booker | Matthew 26:57-68, 27:1-2 | This sermon look at Caiaphas and the Jewish leaders and explores how envy and the threat of losing control leads them to seek to eliminate Jesus. These dynamics can work, even quietly, in our own hearts today, but they can be overcome by the liberating truths of the gospel.

Mark Booker | Matthew 26:30-35, 69-75 | This sermon takes an honest look at Peter and the disciples in Jesus's final hours and exposes two temptations that lead us to deny Christ instead of denying ourselves. We also see a hopeful glimpse of God's grace that restores even the worst deserters.
