Sermon Overview: Jesus took Peter, James, and John up a mountain, where they saw Elijah and Moses, and then God the Father spoke to them. Afterwards, Jesus told them not to tell anyone until after he had risen. This encounter may seem strange to us, and probably raises some questions, but in this sermon Pastor Schurman explains the context and points out that, while it may not be the glory we want, the glory we need is Christ on the cross.
Sermon Overview: The authority of Christian teaching rests on faithfully teaching and applying God's Word.
Sermon Overview: Jonah begrudgingly preached a message of warning to the people Nineveh at God's direction, but he did so without compassion and instead wanted God to punish them. Despite Jonah's intent, the people Nineveh took the message to heart and truly repented of their evil ways. God saw this and spared them from the disaster he had warned them about. In today's sermon we examine the difference between true repentance and simply wanting to avoid consequences.
Sermon Overview: Our sinful nature often prevents us from having a servant's attitude towards God and His Word, but through Jesus our new man eagerly listens and joyfully serves. In this sermon we see ways in which Samuel was called by God, and how those situations apply to us today, including warning our children (young and old), and even our friends' and neighbors' children, when they stray from God.
Sermon Overview: Mary asked the angel "How will this be?" after being told she would give birth to the savior, even though she was a virgin. Pastor Schurman examines how Mary's question was different than Zechariah's similar question to the angel ("How can I be sure of this?"), and we look at other miracles that show nothing is impossible for God.
Sermon Overview: Zechariah asked the angel "How can I be sure of this?" after being told he and his wife would be the parents of John, who would announce the coming of the savior to the world. Through the faith given to us by the Holy Spirit, we can be sure of everything the Bible tells us. This Christmas season we should also remember to spread the message of salvation to others.
Sermon Overview: God's timing is perfect. We confidently expect the savior to return, but according to God's plan. In the meantime, we remain strong by hearing and reading His Word, and we spread the gospel message to others.
Sermon Overview: Christ rules over creation in glory, provides for it, and reigns for the good of believers.
Sermon Overview: Christ calls spiritually complacent people into union with him and strengthens them through God's Word.
