Sermons on True Name:

The Name You Can Rely On Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Sep 2, 2025

Jesus stepped in, not to handle something minor, but to take on our greatest need—our separation from God. His sacrifice doesn’t just make life “nicer.” It changes everything. Do you see Jesus as someone who did you a small favor or as your Savior who paid your greatest debt?

Several decades ago, Gary Campman wrote about five love languages. They are words of affirmation, quality time, physical touch, acts of service, and receiving gifts. These five love languages describe different ways people give and receive love. Each of us has a primary love language, and often, ...read more

He Calls You By Name

Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 30, 2025

John’s resurrection account reveals a quiet but profound truth: belonging comes before understanding. This message invites weary believers to release the pressure to prove their faith and rediscover a resurrection life rooted in being known, named, and kept—while still on the road.

Introduction John tells us that Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark. That detail matters. Not because it is poetic, but because it is honest. This is not the hour of confidence or clarity. This is the hour when grief wakes before reason does. The hour when the body ...read more

We Praise The Name Of Yahweh (Psalm 135) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Dec 27, 2025

A sermon I wrote, while wrestling with what Michael Heiser teaches in The Unseem Realm about the Name of Yahweh being Jesus.

Today, we continue our very sporadic and haphazard study of the psalms, by turning to Psalm 135. This is a beautiful psalm-- it's the type of psalm that lends itself to being used as an opener for Sunday morning worship. I hope today that you'll leave differently, in two ways. The first, ...read more

In this text Jacob’s name would be changed from Jacob to Israel. Jacob would prevail with God and have the power of God upon his life. Perhaps it is time for you to have a "name change."

Text: Gen 32:24 And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day. 25 And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob’s thigh was out of joint, as he wrestled with him. 26 And he said, Let me ...read more
