Can anyone really be sure of their salvation? After all, how can someone really know for sure? Many people struggle with knowing whether or not they've actually been saved. But despite what we may think of what we may question, we actually can have certainty of our election of this life. So how can you know that your salvation has actually been secured.

Likely the most familiar, most quoted, and most memorized chapter in the psalter. As such, it's likely also the most misused, misinterpreted, and misconstrued. But only when we understand this psalm properly and in its context can we apply it properly. While there's a lot to unravel in these six verses, Pastor Tim seeks to give us some helpful insight so we may walk with the Lord better and closer than ever.

Unlike how we tend to think, Paul wasn't a lone ranger on his missionary journeys. Instead, he was a part of a team. And as Tim looks at the introduction of this epistle, we see just how Paul and his ministry team praise the Thessalonian church for their spiritually growth and godliness, and how we should work to better commend those around us.

Most of us are familiar with the Psalm 22, or at least part of it. But although David wrote it, it foreshadows Jesus' crucifixion perfectly and alludes to the church age as well as the future. Additionally, the fact that this psalm is written 1000 years before Jesus' life affirms the truthfulness of the Bible and points to its divine inspiration. So how should we, who live after David and Jesus but before Jesus' second coming, read it today? 

Today Pastor Tim begins a new series in Paul's first letter to the church in Thessalonica. In this introduction, we learn the circumstances surrounding Paul planting this church, how the people within the church are living, and Paul's response to their behavior.

What's the point of the Bible? Have you ever thought that? We go to church week after week and hear sermons from the Bible. We are told to read it every day. But why? If we look at the Bible as just a book of Israel's history or moral stories, then we are entirely missing the point of why we have. And this psalm shows us that.

We all face suffering of one kind or another. How then should we face that suffering? Should we be angry, question God's sovereignty, or something else? When our external circumstances are falling apart, how should we respond, and how can those afflictions glorify God?

Jon Beight wears many hats, including serving as both the Camp Director of Twin Lakes Camp and the Executive Director of our Crossroads Fellowship of Churches.  And he is here to give a sermon on how we in the Christian community need to be united for a common cause. But how do we do that? He looks at Philippians 2 and how to be united, we need to have humility, joy, concern, and self-sacrifice.

As we come to Psalm 2, we find that it's a very timely portion of Scripture to turn to. Tensions between Ukraine and Russia are rising, and we seem to be on the brink of war. What does God think about all of this? How should Christians look at situations like this?

The Bible is certainly important, but why? What makes it different than any other book? And if it is so valuable, why is it that we often neglect it? In this sermon, Pastor Tim explores the source of its significance and a few of the many reasons as to why it is so important.
