"Let my people go..." is one of the most famous sayings in the Christian faith. Moses tells Pharoah to let the Israelites out of slavery. But there's a second half to that verse that is even more important. God has set the Israelites free. Now it's time to find out why He did it, because He sets us free for the same reason.

The 10 plagues teach us that sometimes God uses tough circumstances to bring us mercy, that the idols we worship will one day turn on us, and that God's plan has been a lamb all along.

Sin enters the world and breaks the harmony we had with God, seperating us from Him and leaving Adam and Eve broken and ashamed. But God tells Satan that someone is coming to crush his head and make the music start playing again. The end of Adam and Eve's story is not the end of The Whole Story...

In sermon #2 of The Whole Story we learn what it means to be made "in God's image" and how we distort that image. But Jesus became deformed so grace could reform us.

"In the beginning, God..." These are the words that start the universe. They are also the words that start our new series. In this first sermon we look at the perfect harmony of God in Eden, how we lost that harmony, and how Jesus came to bring it back. NOTE: The recording just missed the start of the sermon, but you do not miss anything crucial.

In our last Psalm of the summer, Ryan takes us through Psalm 34. In it, David is full of thankfulness for God's provision and grace. In his joy he finds peace, hope, and can't wait to invite others in. Psalm 34 reminds us of God's great love and ultimately points us to the clearest sign of His love: The Cross.

Storms will come. Some of us are in the middle of thunder and waves right now. In Psalm 42 the Psalmist feels like his heart has been thrown to the ground. Russell Matherly takes this Psalm and shows us our Savior in it; and reminds us that having Jesus sit with us in the storm can be even better than having the rain stop.

Praising God in the storm is easier said than done. Using Psalm 18, Bo Bradshaw shares tools and stories that help us remember not only how we praise when storms come, but why we praise as well. NOTE: Volume may need to be up for this sermon.

"The heavens declare the glory of God." We hear this all the time. It is one of the most quoted verses in the Bible. But what does it mean? Zane Holcomb takes us through this verse and helps us understand what Heaven really is, and how Heaven came to Earth in Jesus Christ.

In John 13, Jeus models 3 different aspects of life for us to model: Humility, Holiness & Happiness. Listen in as Pastor Bob shares how we too can allow this sequence to affect our lives too.
