This week we look to Isaiah 9:1-7 as we consider the advent of joy in the Advent of Christ.

This week we consider the peace that Jesus brings by look at Ephesians 2:11-22.

We look to Genesis 3:14-15 to consider the hope that comes in the advent of Jesus Christ. 

Matthew 9:9-17 brings us two encounters between Jesus and other who have questions about how he leads his disciples. Jesus illustrates that he has not come to continue business as usual. Jesus is ushering in a new kingdom and covenant. 

Matthew 8:23-9:8 brings us three miracles that all highlight Jesus's complete authority. 

Matthew 8:18-22 brings us a clear warning from Jesus to count the cost before following him.

Matthew 8:1-17 brings us a group of three miracles highlighting Jesus' power and authority to heal diseases. But these healings are just scratching the surface of a the greater work Jesus came to do--heal us from the disease of sin. 

Matthew 7:24-29 brings Jesus' final teaching from the Sermon on the Mount. This teaching calls his listeners to not just hear the words of Jesus but to also do them.

Matthew 7:21-23 brings us one of the most serious warnings from Jesus. This passage should cause every Christian to examine their lives to see if they are in the faith. 

Matthew 7:15-20 brings us Jesus' warning concerning false prophets. Christians must be on guard against those who would seek to infiltrate the church in order to feed upon the sheep.
