- psalm 139 – *even here
This week I am going to preach through Psalm 139. Along the way, I also hope to share with you some of the highlights of the Challenge Conference and what we have learned this week in Kansas City. Psalm 139 shows us that the transcendent God and Creator of all things knows us intimately and is not distant from us. I’m excited to open it together as we gather for worship.

49 min - 1 John 5:1-12 – Truth That Changes Everything
The gospel reshapes our imagination, our desires are transformed. We are now able to envision God’s best for our lives and for others. Our eyes are open to opportunities to bring greater blessings into the world. We see opportunities for decisive acts of faith, such as buying a boat and inviting neighbors and friends and pastors to enjoy a cold drink with his bare feet up on the back deck.
But seriously, what does it mean to overcome the world? In 1 John 5:1-12, although outward appearances may not suggest it, followers of Christ have overcome the world by faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ, and now every follower of Christ can have confidence that they are a cherished member of His family with the same eternal blessings enjoyed by Jesus the Son of God. I think that is a picture worth living for.-------------------------------------------

46 min - 1 John 4:7-21 – No Ordinary Love
Why is love for one another such a high priority when there are so many lives at stake? How can we be sure that God really loves us when there are so many problems? How can we grow in our love for God and other people when we can barely make it through the week sometimes?

49 min - 1 John 4:1-7 – Discerning Truth from Lies
In our summer journey through the letter of 1 John, chapter three ended with the two-part command to believe and to love one another. Chapter four is an elaboration of these two topics: the source of what we believe (1 John 4:1-6) and the source of our love for one another (1 John 4:7-21). This Sunday we will look into 1 John 4:1-6, the source of truth and falsehood. John emphasizes the command to believe rightly and to use discernment as our defense against false teaching which is influenced by demonic spirits who are active in the world.

46 min - 1 John 3:11-24 – Love and Hate
In John's Gospel, just after Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead, the chief priests and Pharisees gathered to conspire against him. They wanted a way to get rid of him. Caiaphas, the high priest, unbeknownst to himself, accidentally says something prophetic: that Jesus would die for the nation. John then adds his own inspired commentary... but not only would Jesus die for the nation but also to gather into one the children of God who are scattered abroad. To gather into one the children of God...
Jesus died to gather into one the children of God who are scattered abroad. Sin separates us from God and from people. In our separation, we attempt to create counterfeit community based on superficial connections. In 1 John 3:11-24, John makes clear that the children of God are connected on a much deeper level; our spiritual union with God makes us one family. So, who are the children of God? How do people know we are his disciples? Love is the mark of a true believer, love that is rooted in truth and that is oriented toward action by the power of the Holy Spirit.-------------------------------------------

48 min - Matthew 18:1-14 – Delusions of Grandeur
The previous chapter shows the clear contrast between the blinding glory of Jesus Christ and the helplessness and hopelessness of the crowds and disciples. And yet, as we begin chapter 18, we catch the disciples asking who will be greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven. Like everything else in Jesus’ teaching, the answer is completely different than anything we could expect. On Sunday we will see what true greatness is, what it looks like in our lives, and how to get it.

49 min - Matthew 17:14-27 – When Evil Seems to Win
As Jesus headed down the mountain with Peter, James, and John, fresh from the revelation of his glory in the Transfiguration, he came back to the wakeup call of facing a helpless boy, a helpless father, helpless crowds, and helpless disciples. Faithlessness and inability to even understand the basic foundations of who God is and who Jesus is brought a cold reality check.
Our lives often feel that way. We might have occasional mountaintop experiences that are incredible – a vacation, a project finished at work, a presentation that was nailed, a perfect date – but then we come back to a screeching halt in the real world and regular life. Worse still, it can feel like evil is winning, and like there’s no good anywhere we look. This Sunday we will see how Jesus can meet us in the real stuff of life, in the mundane, and when we are faithless.

56 min - Matthew 17:1-13 – The Transfiguration
In one of the most stunning passages in the Gospels, the glory of Jesus Christ is revealed, he was changed right before the eyes of three of his disciples and had a conversation with Moses and Elijah on top of a mountain. It’s a major event in Peter, James, and John’s lives that is reflected in other places in the New Testament as well. We will take a look at why the Transfiguration matters, and what it tells us about Jesus and why we ought to listen to what he has to say.

51 min - 1 John 2:28-3:10 – Practicing Righteousness
Where we left off in 1 John, the churches were warned of false teachers, called antichrists, who were seeking to deceive everyone about the true identity of Jesus. Now, the old apostle tells the church to become what they already are. Having already been declared a child of God by faith in Christ, now the church is to put into practice the righteousness that results from faith. Twist: practicing righteousness may not be what you think it is. Righteous living is relational and not about an individual moral performance.

48 min - Matthew 16:13-28 – Who Do You Say I Am?
This passage brings us to the first time that Jesus’ own disciples identify Him as the Messiah, and a controversial passage about the nature of the church. I’m excited to dig in with you. Peter is identified as a key leader, the rock on whom the church would be built. We will also see the costly call to discipleship that Jesus extended then and extends to all of us now. It is not easy or comfortable to follow Christ. It’s a hard path, but it’s worth it.
