  • God's Servant, The Solution To Stubbornness And Rebellion (Isaiah 49:1-6) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Sep 11, 2024
     | 556 views

    God's prophet feels he's served for nothing; it's all been a waste, and meaningless. God responds by giving him a global ministry. An encouragement to pastors, and teachers, and volunteers, in particular.

    If you're seeking to understand Isaiah 40-55, and make sure you get it right, today's passage is absolutely the most important in this entire part of the book. Everything builds up to Isaiah 49, and everything that follows, builds off of it. There are many approaches to these chapters as ...read more

  • God's Offer (Exodus 23:20-33; Jude 5) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 2, 2023
     | 2,112 views

    God's been setting up the framework for a new covenant with Israel. Having described what it means to obey God (Exodus 19:5), God now unpacks his offer-- What will God do for his people?

    The past several weeks, while working through the Book of the Covenant in Exodus, we've seen God set out his expectations for how his people will live toward him, and toward each other. Some of these expectations have been straightforward rules. God has specific do's and don'ts for ...read more

  • A Glimpse Of Heaven (Exodus 24:1-25:8) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 2, 2023
     | 1,734 views

    God, and his people, enter into a new covenant, and share a meal. An impossible picture combining worship, and service, and God's presence-- and a glimpse of our future.

    Today's passage, for me, has always been one of the most confusing, mysterious, and wonderful passages in all of Exodus (although I feel like God totally opened it up to me this week; it's ridiculous how this just flowed out). It's the kind that leaves you with questions (and the kind ...read more

  • Can You Live However You Want, And Still End Up With Jesus? (Revelation 14:6-20) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Sep 13, 2023
     | 1,131 views

    Ch. 14 gives three pictures, rooted in OT thought, of what God's wrath is like. All are (arguably) symbolic, but all are something to be avoided. An encouragement to be faithful, and endure suffering.

    Can you live however you want, once saved? (Revelation 14:1-20) One of the main themes in the book of Revelation that we've seen, especially in the last few weeks, is that the church will suffer on earth. Revelation has described this suffering using a number of different images, and symbols. ...read more

  • Life Is A Series Of Choices (Numbers 14:1-38) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 3, 2025
     | 481 views

    The fathers of Israel have to make a choice about if they will listen to the voices with faith, or the voices who fear. They make the wrong choice, and now they and their sons will miss God's best.

    Last week, we read the story about how Moses, at God's command, sent 12 men into the promised land to explore it. Before Moses sent them, he specifically asked them to bring back a report about the people living there-- are they strong, or weak, are they few, or many? Are their cities ...read more

  • Feeling Abandoned By God? (Isaiah 49:14-50:3) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 3, 2025
     | 412 views

    Lady Zion feels abandoned by God. God comforts her by saying He will make her beautiful again, and give her children. God also says, she feels abandoned because she was-- but that's about to change.

    A few weeks ago, in Isaiah 47, we read about the fall of Babylon, the capital city of the Babylonian empire. The city was described using female imagery-- as a delicate virgin daughter, as a queen. She was described as being proud, and boastful, and savage in her treatment of God's people. ...read more

  • The Servant Who Hears God's Voice (Isaiah 50:4-11) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 13, 2025
     | 364 views

    Sermon's focus is on listening to God. The servant is part of the group of disciples who hear God's voice. The servant suffers, but is confident that he suffers innocently, and that God will vindicate him.

    Our passage today is commonly called the third of the four servant songs in Isaiah 40-55. The other three, famously, are in Isaiah 42, 49, and 53. I've said before that over a century ago, a scholar named Bernard Duhm split off these four songs from the rest of Isaiah 40-55, and treated ...read more

  • God Gives Second Chances (Ezekiel 18:1-32) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 13, 2025
     | 597 views

    An academically rigorous, 1 week rabbit trail talking about generational punishments/curses, mostly following (and maybe slightly improving on) Margaret Odell's Ezekiel commentary.

    Today, we have the privilege of working through a chapter of the Bible that I've been unsettled about, and wrestled with off and on, and changed my mind back and forth, for over 20 years. Ezekiel 18. If you're not familiar with the passage, that's fabulous. That's great. If you ...read more

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

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 24, 2024
     | 1,156 views

    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

  • What Will Jesus Do For Those Who Ask? (Luke 7:1-10) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Feb 17, 2024
     | 1,047 views

    A narrative/literary approach to Luke. Focus of this story is on the centurion's faith.

    The last few weeks, we've been working our way through what is possibly Jesus' second most famous sermon of all time, which in Luke is usually called "The Sermon on the Plain." This message, is one that Jesus gave to his disciples (Luke 6:17-20, verse 20 in particular). They are ...read more

  • Jesus, The Great Prophet (Luke 7:11-16) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Feb 27, 2024
     | 965 views

    Jesus as the prophet like Moses (Deut. 18:18) is more important to Luke than most modern Christians. But Jesus as a prophet, sent by God, speaking God's words, is key to Luke-Acts. A narrative reading.

    One of the kind of delightful things about the Bible, if you are a bit of a nerd, is the way that it echoes. Newer parts of the Bible-- the later biblical authors-- will often find themselves describing their own situations in ways that deliberately echo older biblical language. Or, that language ...read more

  • Questions That Need An Answer (Isaiah 40:12-31) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Mar 7, 2024
     | 1,408 views

    The questions push people to believe what they know: God is great; problems (and human empires like Babylon) are small.

    Our passage today is built around a series of questions. You might find these questions comically easy to answer. Parts of this might feel a bit like Sunday school when you were very little. But work with me this morning. Multiple times, I'm going to ask you the question the prophet asks. ...read more

  • Tripping On Jesus (Luke 7:17-35) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Mar 7, 2024
     | 1,128 views

    In one key way, Jesus isn't the Messiah people (including John) expected. Are we ok that this piece is missing, or does it make us trip on the idea that Jesus is Messiah, and thus trip on God? A narrative/literary approach to Luke.

    Today, I'm going to try to tackle a few interconnected episodes. It's kind of a lot, but this whole section teaches one main thing, and if we want to hear that one thing, we need to grab it all at once. The simplest onramp to today's verses is to begin, simply, by rereading last ...read more

  • God Takes The Nations/Idols To Court (Isaiah 41:1-29) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Mar 18, 2024
     | 838 views

    God makes his case that He, not idols, are running the world. Mystery dude from the east, is God's servant sent to bring his people home.

    In my introduction to Isaiah 40-55, I talked about how one of the challenges to teaching on this part of the Bible, is that these chapters divide up into bigger chunks of material than we can comfortably handle all at once. And honestly, I find that kind of stressful. I can feel myself getting ...read more

  • See God's New Thing! (Isaiah 43:16-21) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jun 6, 2024
     | 1,921 views

    There are helpful and unhelpful ways to think about the past, and about God's past acts of salvation. God encourages his people to stop thinking about the exodus, and see his new act of salvation.

    I'd like to start today by setting you up, so to speak, and reminding you about your Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. God proved his love for the world, and his affection, and his faithfulness, by sending Jesus to earth. Jesus, as King, ushered in God's kingdom onto earth. Jesus came to ...read more
