Trinity Season marks the beginning of our first sermon series through a letter of Paul in the New Testament. The letter to the Romans is not only Paul's greatest and most treasured work in the Bible, it is also one of his most debated among theologians.

This week, Elder Glenn Jones takes us through the introduction to the letter, setting the background context for its purpose and the reason behind why the letter was written and how the same purpose still applies to all of us today. Listen as we begin our study with Romans 1:1-17.

The book of Hosea is an ever present and relevant word from God to his people, and that includes present day Christian nations that were built upon the truth of God and once faithfully served his Kingdom. In Hosea, God promised to raze Israel to the ground in judgment through a foreign nation, yet he offered them mercy and hope that he would raise them to the heavenlies if they repented and turned back to serving him in righteousness. Listen as Pastor James Durham preaches to the congregation of TRC Chattanooga on Hosea 5:15-6:6.

The conclusion of 2 Corinthians by the Apostle Paul was not the best day for Corinth. After multiples letters and visits by Paul and his fellow Apostolic representatives, he was at his wits end with this congregation and gave them one of his sternest warnings among all his letters. So the question is asked, how should these kinds of warning or exhortations be applied in a healthy local church context? Listen as Elder Glenn Jones exhorts the congregation at TRC Chattanooga from 2 Corinthians 13:5-6 on how to rightly apply and examine oneself when you are in good standing in a local church.

Trinity Sunday has arrived and we conclude the first half of the Church Year with the ending of the Gospel of Matthew and the Great Commission. Matthew's Gospel account is unique to the other Gospel writers, with his emphasis on Jesus' own teaching and work as the fulfillment of all the typologies of the Old Testament. And it is that emphasis on typology that gave Matthew the reason for ending his Gospel where he did. Listen as Elder Glenn Jones preaching on Matthew 28:16-20 with all of its typological significance and the glory of the Triune name on Trinity Sunday 2026.

The Apostle Paul taught the Roman Christians to remember their baptisms. But as the next few centuries unfolded, aft the death of the Apostles, heresies arose in the church and much confusion abounded about the meaning of one's baptism. What does you baptism mean for your post-baptismal sins? What about the doctrines of penance and purgatory that developed throughout church history? Listen as Elder Glenn Jones exhorts the congregation at TRC Chattanooga to remember their baptisms and to work out their baptisms with fear and trembling!

Most Christians are familiar with what happened on Pentecost. Something like tongues of fire rested on the disciples and they spoke in tongues and proclaimed the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. Thousands of people became followers of Christ. But why were people really gathered in Jerusalem on that day, in the first place? And what’s the significance or the connection between why they were there and what the apostles did that day? Listen as Elder Wes Keene preaches this week’s sermon at TRC Chattanooga.

In 1 Thessalonians, Paul enjoins all Christians to rejoice always. The problem is that sin, death, and the devil hand us all kinds of conditions that do not make us want to rejoice…in fact, often quite the opposite! How is it that Christians can be faithful to the Lord’s command and always be rejoicing? Listen as Elder Wes Keene exhorts the congregation at TRC Chattanooga, based on 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18.

Peter tells new Jewish and Gentile converts scattered throughout the Roman Empire that persecution is normative and that it is a sign one is loved by God. Peter encourages Christians in his day to remain faithful because Jesus would be coming soon to judge the wicked religious leadership and others that were attacking His bride. Peter says that Christians have great hope in a God that has infinite creative power. Like Jesus we must purposefully place our lives in the hands of a God that loves us and will give us resurrection bodies when He returns for the final judgment. Listen as Fred Thompson delivers the homily to TRC Chattanooga from 1 Peter 4:12-19.

Christians today are largely confused about what happened when Jesus ascended to heaven from the Mount of Olives after his resurrection and 40 days of appearances. Oddly enough, Jesus' own disciples were also confused, but after the giving of the Spirit they began to understand and they explained all these events to us in the writings of the New Testament. Therefore, we are Christians today ought not to be confused about the meaning of Christ's ascension. Listen as Elder Glenn Jones exhorts the congregation of TRC Chattanooga on the meaning and application of the ascension to our own live here in AD 2026.

John 15 stands as one of the most memorable allegories from Jesus' teaching ministry. "I am the vine, you are the branches." This sacramental worldview that Christ gives us is something we must both treasure and be formed by throughout our whole lives so that our joy may be full and complete. This is why the doctrine of union with Christ is fundamental to the Christian life. Listen as Elder Glenn Jones preaches from John 15 on the 6th Sunday of Eastertide.
