Walnut Creek Presbyterian Church - Sermons and News

The word of the Lord to us, in the midst of chaos, confusion and turmoil reminds us of the constraints of life and how to take wisdom from the word of the Lord in acknowledging and receiving our limitation, and to enter into the rest that the Lord has so lovingly prepared for us. This rest is our Lord Jesus Christ, whom the Lord has given for us a shepherd and savior, our wisdom and knowledge, our peace and rest.

Ecclesiastes 1:1-14

The people of God should be a feasting people. We hear this message in Isaiah today where he explains both the reason for our feasting and the possibility of our feasting.

Isaiah 25:1-9

Isaiah 65:17-19

We often expect God to come to us in a certain way, forgetting the true purpose of his mission. This week we are reminded of the ways we prefer God to come to us and the way God chose to come to us.

Matthew 21 : 1-11

The Lord has clothed us with garments of salvation and with the robe of righteousness, and hence the Lord goes on to say through his prophet Isaiah, that we shall be a crown of glory in the hand of the Lord and a royal diadem in the hand of our God. We shall no more be termed Forsaken, neither shall our land be termed Desolate: for we shall be called Hephzibah (the Lord delights in you) and our land Beulah (our land shall be married)

Isaiah 61:10-62:5

Looking unto the word of God and his eternal purpose in order to live with faith especially during the current troublesome time

Isiah 45:1-8; 22-25

Our experiences in this world often leaves us drained and perpetually tired. Images of exhaustion images are embedded in Isaiah, a bruised reed and a faintly burning wick. However, Isaiah also speaks about a Servant who is chosen by God, but how can this Servant bring us rest?

Isaiah 42:1-9

What are you listening to?

Isaiah 40:6-17; 55:8-13

We start a new series – Isaiah: A Song in the Wasteland

Isaiah 35:1-10; 40:1-5

If the Church exists just for itself, then it should cease to exist. We exist to participate in God’s mission, which goes beyond us. But what is this mission and how to do we participate in it?
