Synopsis: The Egypt narrative teaches us that God is faithful in famine, that the bride will be protected even when the serpent seems to have her, and that the man of faith emerges from the furnace enriched, not destroyed.

Sermon Text: Genesis 12:10 - 13:4

Synopsis: Genesis 12:1-9 provides the paradigm of obedient faith. The man of Faith leaves and puts self to death in obedience to the word of the Lord and who also proclaims his faith publicly.

Sermon Text: Genesis 12:1-9

Synopsis: The transition between the primeval history and the history of the Patriarchs is one that reveals the quiet work of God to bless the world by blessing his people.

Sermon Text: Genesis 11:10-32

Synopsis: The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the bodily, historical event by which the living God defeated death, vindicated his Son, and secured - for all who believe in him - true forgiveness, new life, and a definite hope of future glory. Because Christ truly died under Pontius Pilate, truly descended into the realm of the dead, and truly rose on the third day - death and resurrection are not merely events to observe from a distance — they are the very rhythm of the Christian life. Jesus did not die so that you could live. He died so that you could die: to sin, to shame, to the power of the grave. And Jesus rose so that you could rise — every day, in Him, walking in newness of life until that final dawn of glorified eternal life in Him.

Sermon Text: Proverbs 21:31

Synopsis: The unity of man is potent and when used idolatrously for man’s self-glory leads to potent rebellion and sin. God frustrates the false unity of mankind, scattering them and confusing their religion and language to weaken their rebellion. The antidote to the confused babel of man is the harmonious word of Christ.

Sermon Text: Genesis 11:1-9

Synopsis: God blesses Noah whose family multiplies and spreads over the whole earth just as God commanded him in Genesis 9:1.

Despite the counsel of the principalities and rulers of this world against the Lord, God is directing human history to its proper and glorious end.

Sermon Text: Genesis 10

Synopsis: Noah, like Adam, fails to protect his garden from the serpent Ham. But Ham's sin is covered faithfully by his brothers Shem and Japheth. Noah blesses God for his own faithful sons and curses the later generations of Ham, knowing what kind of sons he would produce.

Sermon Text: Genesis 9:18-29

Synopsis: To be “remembered by God” is a great act of His covenant grace. To be a part of God’s remnant, a participant in his new creation and an object of his memory gives life purpose in the present and hope for the future.
