A sermon from Brent Kercheville. When we look at the prophets we are often able to find sections when God turns his attention to speaking about a future hope for his people. For example, in the book of Isaiah we see a shift in chapter 40 when God through Isaiah starts proclaiming what the future will look like for his […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. In 2 Samuel 12 the prophet Nathan comes to King David after David had sexually sinned with Bathsheba and attempted to cover up the pregnancy by killing Bathsheba’s husband and marrying her. So Nathan must come to David with a story about a rich man and a poor man. The rich man had a very […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. Isaiah 40 is the proclamation of good news. God is giving words of comfort to his people so that they will stand on high mountains proclaiming, “Behold your God!” (Isaiah 40:9). Then Isaiah pictures the immense power and majesty of God. Isaiah 40 is to help us have the right lens of the Lord when […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. We are looking at Romans 1 in which the apostle Paul is teaching what happens to us as humans and as a culture when we fail to honor God and give him thanks. Three times in Romans 1 we are told that God gives us over to our sinful desires (cf. Romans 1:24,26,28). In the […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. We have a song in our songbook titled, “Where Could I Go?” The first verse talks about the difficulty of facing temptations. So then the question is asked, “Where could I go but to the Lord?” The second verse speaks about having good neighbors. But when my soul needs manna from above, where could I […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. We are coming to a text in God’s word that is full of controversy and resistance. But we should not be surprised by this because of what the apostle Paul declared earlier in Romans 1. In Romans 1:21 we learn that when we do not honor God and give him thanks then we will become […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. In Isaiah 40, the Lord speaks through Isaiah to his people to give them comfort. The greatest comfort you can ever have in this world is knowing God. No one cares about you more than God does. God wants the people to see him the right way. The people think that God does not care […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. In Romans 1:18-20 the apostle Paul has made a very important point regarding the gospel. No one has an excuse before God. There is no one in the world that can say on the day of judgment that they are excused from knowing God. Why? The reason why all are without excuse is because God […]
