King And Priest Series

Contributed by Todd Catteau on Apr 23, 2026

Verse 4 of Psalm 110 answers the question the whole series has been building toward. Jesus is not just the King who secures the kingdom — he is the Priest who gets you in. He is not just the priest making the offering. He is the offering.

We're back in Psalm 110 for our final week in this series. As we've established, this is the most-quoted Old Testament passage in the entire New Testament. Scholars count roughly 25 verses across 20 different NT passages that either quote or allude to this single psalm. That's a ...read more

Put Me In Coach Series

Contributed by Todd Catteau on Apr 23, 2026

The second sermon in a three-week series on Psalm 110. If Jesus is already reigning, what does that mean for us? Psalm 110:2–3 calls his people to be a willing army — showing up at dawn, clothed in holy splendor, ready to serve a King whose victory is already secured.

Last week we spent time in Psalm 110 — and if you weren't here, here's what you need to know. This is the most quoted Old Testament passage in the entire New Testament. Jesus quoted it. Peter preached from it at Pentecost. Paul appeals to it. The writer of Hebrews builds his greatest ...read more

Still On The Throne Series

Contributed by Todd Catteau on Apr 23, 2026

The first sermon in a three-week series on Psalm 110 — the most quoted OT passage in the NT. Addressing the anxiety of uncertain times, this sermon argues that David overheard a conversation in heaven, and what he heard changes everything: Jesus is on the throne, and the victory is secure.

Introduction This past Friday — just two days ago — four astronauts splashed down in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of San Diego. They had just completed NASA's Artemis II mission — the first time human beings have traveled to the moon and back in over fifty years. 270,000 miles from earth. ...read more

The Sacrificial Love Of God Series

Contributed by Todd Catteau on Mar 11, 2026

I want to linger here before we close this series — because there's one more facet of God's greatness we haven't named yet, and it may be the most stunning of all. God is sacrificially loving.

**The Sacrificial Love of God** **Introduction: The Guide on the River** Several years ago, our family packed up and headed to Red River, New Mexico. Henriann and I, Melanie and Cina — the girls were young, maybe 8 and 10. We were looking for adventure, and we found it in the form of a white ...read more

The God Who Speaks Series

Contributed by Todd Catteau on Mar 11, 2026

Today, we turn our attention to another stunning display of God's greatness: His clear communication with us through Scripture.

**The God Who Speaks** *A Sermon on God's Greatness Revealed in Scripture* Over the past few weeks, we've been contemplating the greatness of God together. We've seen His greatness displayed in multiple ways. We saw His greatness in His eternal nature — God who exists outside of time, ...read more

The Goodness Of God Series

Contributed by Todd Catteau on Mar 11, 2026

Not everyone sees God as good. A great but not good God only produces fear. That kind of God discourages trust and breeds anxiety rather than faith. So today, we're going to look at another essential aspect of God's character — His goodness.

**The Goodness of God** Last week we talked about the greatness of God. Contemplating God's greatness is an important spiritual discipline. When we do this, we break free from our narrow perspectives — those little slivers of the universe we tend to get caught up in. And when we see how great ...read more

Becoming What We Were Created To Be Series

Contributed by Todd Catteau on Mar 11, 2026

As we close out this series, I want us to contemplate another critical fact buried in the creation story: We are created in God's image and called to reflect that image.

MADE IN HIS IMAGE Becoming What We Were Created to Be Closing Sermon — The Greatness of God Series INTRODUCTION I told you I was through with the Greatness of God sermon series. I am — but I'm not.

The Discipline Of Contemplating God's Greatness Series

Contributed by Todd Catteau on Mar 11, 2026

We all know Genesis 1:1, but we tend to rush right past it, eager to get to the fascinating details of creation. Today, let's slow down. Right here at the very start of the Bible, we discover profound truths about who God is.

**The Discipline of Contemplating God's Greatness** Over the next few weeks, I want us to contemplate the greatness of God together. If I'm honest, I don't do this nearly enough. My attention gets consumed by the ups and downs of daily life, the relentless news cycle, the tasks that ...read more

Better Soil, Better Outcomes

Contributed by Todd Catteau on Jun 10, 2025

This spring, I undertook a simple lawn project that would teach me an unexpected lesson about spiritual growth.

This spring, I undertook a simple lawn project that would teach me an unexpected lesson about spiritual growth. I planted grass seeds in two places in my lawn. In one of those places the ground was lower, so I added some topsoil. In the other place I simply tilled up the existing ground. I spread ...read more

Solomon: A Lesson In Divine Wisdom

Contributed by Todd Catteau on May 13, 2025

Solomon's request for wisdom calls us all to evaluate what we really want most.

I am currently preaching through the life of Israel’s third king, Solomon. As the primary author of Proverbs, he is perhaps best-known for his insight and wisdom. His acquisition of this wisdom is a fascinating and instructive story. Near the beginning of his reign, Solomon fell into a deep sleep. ...read more

The Lord Is My Refuge

Contributed by Todd Catteau on Aug 18, 2024

In times of trouble we seek peace and safety. Where we seek it makes all the difference in the world.

It always seems that I get a request to preach form the Psalms. Today Psalm 11. The Psalms speak to us – we can almost hear ourselves in the Psalms – praising God – mourning our sin – questioning the world – seeking vengeance on our enemies. Before reading let’s introduce some aspects of the ...read more

Jesus' Guest List

Contributed by Todd Catteau on Apr 19, 2024

You’re probably heard the saying, “You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time”. You would think that Jesus could please all of the people all of the time. But he didn’t.

You’re probably heard the saying, “You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time”. That sounds true from my experience. No one can please all of the people all of the time, but … if there ...read more

Saul And The Medium Of Endor Series

Contributed by Todd Catteau on Jul 18, 2023

Saul sinks to new lows as he consults the medium of Endor.

Today we will be in 1 Samuel 28 The chapter begins with two announcements 1. Samuel has died 2. Saul has taken action against the mediums in the land. By expelling “mediums and spiritists,” Saul had obeyed Pentateuchal law (Lev. 19:31; 20:27; Deut. 18:10–11). So, good for Saul. After the two ...read more

Before that, here’s a little story: I was an average/mediocre athlete in high school. Good enough to make ...read more
