This message was written in June 2020 to address the Corona Virus pandemic. This passage from Psalm speaks of how God will deliver us from the snares of the enemy and from the pestilence.

We have endured some crazy events in America during the first six months of 2020, with the impeachment trial and political drama; the Corona Virus pandemic; and now racial and civil unrest, accompanied with looting, rioting and terrible violence.

Should We Ask God Tough Questions, Or Not? (Isaiah 45:9-25) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jul 16, 2024

Some Christians think it's ok; others would never dare. Can questions make God angry, and put us in danger? Or does God welcome the questions?

I'd like to start today by reading the first five verses of our passage, using the NET translation. As I read, just try to think about one thing: Is it okay to challenge God, or to ask God questions about what He's doing? Isaiah 45:9-13 (NET): 9 One who argues with his Creator is in ...read more

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Feb 24, 2023

God graciously renews his covenant with Israel, because of his goodness, and kindness, and grace. We celebrate God's goodness, but we do that from a position of obedience.

Ever since the golden calf, God and Moses have been working out what kind of future there can be, for God and Israel. Moses has been trying to persuade God that Israel is still his people. Moses still wants ...read more

The Return Of Our God (Isaiah 40:1-11) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 24, 2024

God calls on his divine council (simplified: angels) to build a road for Him, because He is very shortly returning to Jerusalem, leading/carrying his exiled people. All Israel is invited to keep their eyes open for God's return.

Last week, I introduced a new series we are beginning that covers Isaiah 40-55. If you missed last week, I think today will still mostly make sense, but you might want to get a copy of last week's sermon from me. Today, then, we are just going to dive in to Isaiah 40. This chapter opens by ...read more

Are We Tight-Fisted Toward God? (Haggai 1:1-14) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Apr 14, 2022

God, through Haggai, challenges the people to look honestly at their lives-- their priorities, and how well that's worked out for them. God wants his house built.

Today, we start a new three week series on the book of Haggai. I should really start, by explaining something about the background of Haggai. Give you something to set it in the context of Israel's history. But I just don't want to. I'll just say this: Haggai prophesied to ...read more

Theology Proper: Names Of God Series

Contributed by Greg Brown on Aug 5, 2014

In the Scripture one's name is more than simply something you call someone, it is a reflection of their person--their character. By knowing the names of God, we can understand him better, and therefore, more fully worship and pray to him.

Names of God As we are seeking to know God more, one of the greatest ways to know God is by the names given in Scripture. In the ancient Hebrew culture, a name meant so much more than just what you called somebody, it reflected a person’s character. Satan means “opposer” or ...read more
