  • Christ the Shepherd | Les Newsom
    Launch Sermon Player

    Scripture Reference: Micah 5:2-5a

    The persistent rebellion of God’s people leads the prophet Micah to say some sobering things about God’s judgment upon them, even to the point of saying that he will “leave them” for being such. But there’s hope even in exile as we wait for THE Good Shepherd to rescue and lead his people.

    Sermon Points:

    • See God
    • Miss God
    • Follow God

    • Christ the Covenant | Les Newsom
      Launch Sermon Player

      Scripture Reference: Jeremiah 31:31-34

      The prophet Jeremiah speaks of the Old Testament covenants as if they failed to produce what God intended. So he foresees Christ instituting a new covenant, sealed in His blood, writing God’s law on our hearts through the Spirit, creating people who want what God wants.

      Sermon Points:

      • What is the covenant?
      • How is the New Covenant “New?”
      • How do we participate in the New Covenant?

      • Christ the Servant | Les Newsom

        Scripture Reference: Isaiah 52:13-53:12

        Israel’s suffering is judgment for sin, but the Servant suffers voluntarily and substitutionally. Christ is not just an example of suffering; He bears our guilt to create a new community by grace.

        Sermon Points:

        • The Ordinary Servant
        • The Suffering Servant
        • The Substituting Servant

        • Christ the King | Les Newsom
          Launch Sermon Player

          Scripture Reference: Isaiah 9:1-7

          Isaiah ministered during a time of great gloom and fear, a real social darkness. But a new kind of King is coming! Christ is the Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace—the King who doesn’t use power to take, but to save.

            Scripture Reference: Hosea 1:1-3, 3:1-5

            When the prophet Hosea lives out God’s strange command to him and speaks as God’s mouthpiece, something incredible emerges. In what theologians have called the most scandalous book of the Bible, we actually see something about the desires of our heart. We long for someone to see us for who we really are and committed to love us with a never stopping, never giving up love.

          • Christ the Glory | Les Newsom
            Launch Sermon Player

            Scripture Reference: Ezekiel 10:1-4, 43:1-5

            Visions of glory are a powerful human motivator. In Ezekiel’s prophecy, God’s glory leaves because of sin, yet returns in promise. In Christ, God’s glory takes up residence not in a temple of stone but in His incarnate body—and through Him, in us.

            Sermon Points:

            • Glory Examined
            • Glory Lost
            • Glory Regained

            • Christ the Word | Les Newsom
              Launch Sermon Player

              Scripture Reference: Deuteronomy 18:15-22

              The entire prophetic tradition springs from the expectation in Moses sermon: God will raise up a final, authoritative Word-bringer. Israel’s prophets are echoes—Jesus is the Voice. Christ doesn’t only bring God’s word; He is the Word.

              Sermon Points:

              • The Need for a Prophet
              • The Problem with Prophets
              • The Fulfillment of the Prophets

                Scripture Reference: 1 Chronicles 29:9-22

                King David reaches the end of his reign and prepares his son Solomon’s building project before he finishes. There he reflects on the way in which God provided for his people and provides a powerful model for Christ Pres as we prepare to launch a building campaign of our own.
