  • Loving Your Neighbor: A Broader Perspective (Exodus 21:28-36) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Nov 12, 2022
     | 1,574 views

    Loving your neighbor includes: (1) watching over your goring ox (and mean dogs), (2) taking warnings about dangerous things seriously, (3) putting a fence around your pool. Take safety seriously.

    Quite a few of us, if we were asked to name the ten words/commandments, wouldn't be able to come up with all ten. But for sure one of the ones we would name, is "Don't murder." At first glance, this command is straightforward. God doesn't want his people to kill someone ...read more

  • Your Stuff, Is Yours. Your Neighbor's, Your Neighbor's (Exodus 22:1-15) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Nov 23, 2022
     | 1,747 views

    God expects his people to keep their hands to themselves. And God knows that property rights are part of the bedrock of what makes societies function.

    One of the main topics discussed among my coworkers over the past year or two, has been inflation. All of us are constantly feeling the effects of it. Everything costs more. We find that we save a little less every month than we used to. We find ourselves reexamining what we buy, and thinking ...read more

  • Living As God's Holy, Consecrated People (Exodus 22:16-30) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Nov 27, 2022
     | 1,772 views

    Laws on lying with virgins, bestiality, mistreating orphans, widows, resident aliens, and the poor.

    Our passage this morning, Exodus 22:16-30, covers a lot of ground. God has really clear expectations for his people in lots of areas of life. And this passage, covers lots of those areas. So this isn't going to be the kind of sermon that's neat and tidy. But I think what we will read, ...read more

  • Do The Right Thing (Exodus 23:1-9) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Dec 9, 2022
     | 2,366 views

    Instructions on being a witness, and judge/jury. A broader point, about doing the right thing for rich and poor, citizens and aliens.

    It's hard to be a good neighbor (Exodus 23:1-9) I'd like to start today by taking a step back, and helping us remember where we are in the book of Exodus. Let's turn to Exodus 19:1-9 (NRSV updated no reason). This passage is one of the keys to understanding Exodus as a whole. This ...read more

  • Rules For Farming, Work, Rest, Worship, And Cooking (Exodus 23:10-19) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Dec 17, 2022
     | 1,737 views

    Animals, servants, and the land need a break. Don't come before God empty-handed. When you celebrate harvest, celebrate God.

    Today, we work our way through Exodus 23:10-19. This is another one of those passages where we will find ourselves being pulled in lots of different directions. God sort of hops around, from one topic to another. And we will have to do our best to hop with him, and keep up. Part of me wonders ...read more

  • God Will Not Be Mocked (Exodus 8:16-32) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Dec 30, 2021
     | 3,142 views

    Mocking God: telling him one thing, and then doing another.

    Let's start today by reminding ourselves about the frogs, and where things stand with Yahweh, and Moses, and Aaron, and Pharaoh. Exodus 8:1 (I didn't realize how different the Hebrew numbering was until I'd finished last week, and I'm too lazy to change it; my bad; English Bibles ...read more

  • Our Encouraging God (Joshua 8:1-29) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Dec 31, 2021
     | 2,399 views

    After the setback at Ai, God encourages Joshua, and nudges him back toward Himself, and the job at hand. God is good, and loving, and encouraging.

    Many of us can read the exact same words in the Bible, and draw completely different understandings from it. Some of you, when you hear me say this, think I'm talking about how Christians argue over meaning and interpretation. But I'm actually talking about tone. Let's open to ...read more

  • Will Yahweh Be A Big God, For You? (Exodus 9:1-12) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Dec 31, 2021
     | 2,527 views

    When we were kids, we knew the right answer, and lived the right answer. Now, though? Yahweh is The One Who Decides What Happens Next.

    Let me start this morning, by asking two questions. These aren't rhetorical. Feel free to answer: Up to this point in Exodus, what plagues have we seen? (1) The Nile, and every body of water, turn to blood. (2) Frogs, everywhere. (3) Flies. (4) Gnats. And when we focus on Yahweh, what ...read more

  • The Gospel Of John: An Introduction Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Dec 31, 2021
     | 1,795 views

    Arguably with no other book, is there a larger disconnect between academic, scholarly understanding, and the way the church reads it. The intro is designed to bridge part of that gap, and explain my own approach to John.

    First of all, a note on my approach: This series uses a literary/narrative approach to John, along the lines proposed by scholars like Adele Berlin, Frank Kermode, Robert Alter, or Charles Talbert, to name just a few. I assume that the author/narrator of John-- who I call "AJ"-- had ...read more

  • Getting Jesus Right (John 1:1-18) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 1, 2022
     | 3,290 views

    Who is Jesus, fully, really?

    Everything for humans depends on getting Jesus right. We have to understand who Jesus is. What he came for. What he accomplished. And what he wants. If we get this wrong, we end up outside of God's kingdom, looking in. We end up darkness. We perish. But if we get all of this right, and ...read more

  • Point People To Jesus (John 1:19-28) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 2, 2022
     | 1,886 views

    John the Baptist understands that Jesus is important, and he is not. His sole job, is to point people to Jesus.

    Last week, in John 1:1-18, AJ (Author of John) started his gospel by focusing on 2 people, telling us who they are, and what they came to do. The first, and easily more important, is Jesus. Jesus is the Word become flesh. He is the preexistent one. He is Life. He is Light. He is God. To ...read more

  • Seek God's Mouth (Joshua 9:1-27) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 2, 2022
     | 1,814 views

    Should we root for the Gibeonites? Cunning: Knowing what you want, and knowing how to get it.

    Let's start this morning by reading Joshua 9:1-4: (1) And then, as soon as the kings heard who were beyond the Jordan in the hill country and in the Shephelah and in all the coast of the great sea in front of Lebanon--the Hittites and Amorites, the Canaanites, the Perizzites, the Hivites and ...read more

  • When God Brings The Hail (Exodus 9:13-35) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 2, 2022
     | 2,529 views

    (1) Maybe the best way to appreciate how "big" God is, is to go outside. (2) Maybe not all the Egyptians are forever, hopelessly, stubborn.

    Before we start reading our passage this morning, think about the worst storms you've ever been in. Try to remember the biggest rain storms, and the thunder, and the hail, and the blizzards. When I do this, I tend to think about four stories, two of which I'll share. One day, when I ...read more

  • We Come To Jesus In Steps (John 1:29-42) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 4, 2022
     | 2,788 views

    No one starts of knowing Jesus, or who he is. And that's okay. What's important, is that you "come to" Jesus, and "abide" with him. You can't come to Jesus, while keeping your (objective) distance.

    Beginning in John 1:19, we find ourselves reading the events of a single week in the life of John the Baptist and Jesus. Let's start today by simply rereading 1:19-28, day 1. (19) And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews from Jerusalem sent priests and Levites in order that they ...read more

  • Come And See Jesus (John 1:43-51) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 5, 2022
     | 3,530 views

    Nathaniel is open-minded enough to come see Jesus for himself, and overcomes his initial skepticism. This makes him the ideal Israelite. Also, Jesus is not a ladder. Angels come "to" Jesus, not "upon" him.

    This week, starting in John 1:43, we find ourselves on day 4. Let's just start there: (43) On the next day, he (Jesus) wished to depart to Galilee, and he finds Philip, and Jesus says to him, "Follow me." Already in the gospel of John, we've seen a number of people take the ...read more
