Sermon Overview: Freedom is service; we are free to serve for no selfish reason at all because we have been served by Christ. Freedom is struggle; struggle against the sinful nature, struggle against the yoke of the law, and struggle to be on the lookup for the snares of temptation. But freedom also means we can grow fruits of faith through our new man who is connected to Christ.

Sermon Overview: He purchased and won all sheep into his eternal flock. That is comforting for you because you are his little lamb and he has saved you.

Sermon Overview: All of us, like Saul before he became the apostle Paul, were an enemy living in a delusion, and the LORD had to reveal himself to break that delusion. The LORD has used and continues to use crosses to discipline and chasten us.

Finally, the LORD gives us the commission to tell others what God has done.
Sermon Overview: Despite many attempts to silence the good news that Jesus is risen, we see God working because He wants us to know that message cannot be silenced. When God calls on us, sometimes we spread it with a gentle whisper, and sometimes we shout it from the rooftops, as God presents the opportunities. We are never quiet, though, because He is risen.
