In this sermon from Ben, we begin our 2023 Advent sermon series in Ruth. We're introduced to the story of Naomi and Ruth - to both their devastating losses and Ruth's remarkable faith. Join us as we look away from our emptiness to the God who gives hope in the dark.

In this final sermon on the 10 Commandments, pastor David Townsend shows us how the command not to covet serves as a sort of summarization and exclamation point to the entire decalogue. It is the final arrow drawn and released at the heart of transgression and lawlessness, exposing the depth of our idolatry and God's goodness in how he's ordered the world.

In this message on the 9th commandment, Pastor Dave helps us to understand God's command that our lives be free of all deceit, gossip, and slander, and how by the Spirit of Christ we might obey His commandment in every sphere of life.

In this sermon from Ben, we hear God's call to His people not to steal, but to instead be content, to do honest work, and to give generously to God and to people.

In this message from Ben, we see that God gave us the 7th commandment to protect and preserve the covenant of marriage and his gift of sex so that we might flourish in God-fearing marriages and in life. So that we might live holy and upright lives with marriages that tell the truth about Christ and His Church.

In honor of the Reformation and our responsibility to continue to be reformed and reform by God's Word, with church history and the living Word pastor David Townsend leads us to rejoice in the sufficiency and necessity of Scripture for our salvation and life in Christ.

"Murder of the heart" is crouching at your door, but you must master it. In this sermon from Ben, we see what murder is and isn't, how Jesus deepened our understanding of murder, and how we can master ourselves by God's Spirit, valuing life and loving one other earnestly from our hearts.

In this message from David, we see God's call on everyone to honor their parents. Join us as we study the nature of authority, our duty to honor our parents and to lead our children to honor our authority, and God's gracious promise to His own who obey him in this.

In this sermon from Ben, we consider the 4th Commandment: Remember the Sabbath Day, to Keep it Holy. How should Christians think about the Sabbath on this side of the cross of Christ? How did Christ deepen our understanding of sabbath rest, and what if anything did he change about the 4th commandment? May the Lord give us grace to rest in Christ and honor him on the Lord's Day and everyday.

In this message, Pastor David helps us to glory in the name of God and exhorts us both to abstain from taking the name of the Lord in vain and to share in God's jealousy for the honor of his name.
