Humans are curious. When disaster strikes, we want to know the cause of it. When it happens to other people, we may be tempted to wonder whether they “had it coming.” But our Lord Jesus would have us consider something different. Listen as Rev. David Beckmann preaches this week’s sermon at TRC Chattanooga.

Repentance is hard. It’s especially hard if we’ve been covering something up for a long time, or avoiding a deep sin. But the prophet Joel has a word for us: It is never too late to turn back to the Lord, because with him there is always forgiveness. Listen as Elder Wes Keene exhorts the congregation at TRC Chattanooga.

The journey of Lent follows the journey of Jesus on his path to Jerusalem. As Jesus nears his arrival to the city, only three days out, he tells his disciples that the door to the Master's house is nearing a close for the nation of Israel and he laments over Jerusalem's impending doom. How do these sayings of Jesus apply to us today and what will be the fate of our own nation? Listen as Elder Glenn Jones preaches this week's sermon at TRC Chattanooga.

King David teaches us to take God at his word and come to him at all times for help. During this season of Lent, we are reminded that God tells us to seek his face when we are in danger from our enemies, especially our own sin. Listen as Elder Glenn Jones exhorts the congregation at TRC Chattanooga.

Let's be honest, some people don't care much for the church season of Lent. The hymns are dark sounding and the mood is somber. But by looking at Jesus' temptation in the wilderness, we can learn how to grow in the season of Lent. We can learn to have contentment in whatever season God has placed us. Satan doesn't want us to observe this season, but we must resist him. Listen as Elder Wes Keene preaches this week's sermon at TRC Chattanooga.

If you haven't been exposed to the season of Lent in your life, it can be jarring. There are customs and practices that might seem foreign to us. It isn't a chipper time. It's a season of growing in holiness. Listen as Elder Wes Keene exhorts the congregation at TRC Chattanooga.

At the close of the season of Epiphany we celebrate the transfiguration of Christ before his disciples, learning about the meaning of typology as God's sovereign ordering of history and how we might have responded that night if we were on the mountain with Jesus and his disciples. Listen as Elder Glenn Jones delivers this week’s sermon at TRC Chattanooga.

Many other cults and religions require you to jump through hoops to achieve your own salvation. But the Christian Faith does not posit such foolishness. Rather, the words of God come to you in the simplest of terms and the demands of the Gospel are not difficult to do. Consider the simplicity of it all as Elder Glenn Jones delivers this week’s exhortation based on Deuteronomy 30:14 at TRC Chattanooga.

The 96th Psalm is a beautiful call to praise our most high God who is worthy of such praise. But this Psalm carries with it a command to extend the praise of God beyond the walls of our churches. The nations, who worship false gods, are by no means freed from the obligation to give glory to Jesus Christ and bend the knee. Listen as Elder Wes Keene delivers this week’s sermon at TRC Chattanooga.

It’s the world’s worst kept secret that in most churches, the most important of the 10 commandments is the 11th: “Be nice.” But in our exhortation verse today, we see Joshua exhorting his hearers to something different: “Be strong.” How are we called on to be strong? And how have we fallen short of that, at times? Listen as Elder Wes Keene delivers this week’s exhortation based on Joshua 10:25 at TRC Chattanooga.
