Jesus declared that, after our devotion to God, as involved in the first and great commandment, that there is a second that is “like to it.” So, there’s a second commandment that is, also, of incredible importance and position in God’s scheme of things. We call it the second great ...read more

The Big Idea: We don’t always like the warnings Scripture gives us. In the parable of the wicked tenants, Jesus warns the religious leaders of of the consequences of not bearing the fruit God is looking for.
Since we’ve titled this series “Good News,” a lot of the sermon titles have related to the news—“The most trusted name in News,” “A Slow News Day,” “The Rest of the Story—” stuff like that. So that’s where this title comes from, and I’ll talk more about this later. An interesting thing about ...read more

2 Samuel 7 is a key chapter in the overall plotline of the Bible. The significance of this chapter lies in the promise God makes to David. God promises to build a house, and this promise is called the Davidic Covenant, or David’s Covenant.
The story of Christmas is splashed across the pages of your Bible long before Mary, Joseph, Wise Men, and the shepherds arrive. We’re exploring the promises made a millennium ahead of Christmas, and it’s these promises that serve as a bedrock granite underneath the holiday season. 2 Samuel 7 is ...read more

God offers deep, transformative grace—restoring brokenness, writing His law on our hearts, and forgiving our sins completely through the new covenant in Christ.
Some days feel like a slow sunrise after a long night. You wake up with yesterday’s worries still whispering, with old guilt tugging at your sleeve, with the quiet question that won’t quit: Can things really change? Is there mercy for what’s been messed up, mendedness for what’s been mangled? If ...read more

This message helps people identify what’s broken in their sphere of influence and then develop a vision to be a rebuilder of what’s broken.
What is it that is broken in your life - something that needs to be rebuilt? Everybody has something that is broken. The most hopeless people in the world are people who recognize that they have a problem, but have no vision from God about how to solve with that problem. Where there is no ...read more

Amos was an Amateur but Authentic Prophet who faithfully delivered God’s message to Israel, clashing with the culture and church of his day, with a vital message for the church of all ages.
AMOS - THE AMATEUR BUT AUTHENTIC PROPHET Amos had no intention of becoming a prophet. He’d never attended "the schools of the prophets" that were the conventional launch of a prophetic ministry. In fact he was a sheep breeder and a fig-tree grower who lived about 2,800 years ago in the Judean ...read more

God's faithfulness and action in seasons of change
When I mapped out our sermon series post-Easter, I had an idea that it might lead us into a season of transition coinciding with my forthcoming handing over the leadership of our church to the next person God is preparing already to come and lead us into a new thing. I didn’t know for sure, ...read more
