Is there anything lasting in this world? And if there is a God, what is his real motivation? Listen in today to this Easter Sunday sermon, as we conclude our journey through the book of Ephesians.
Home & Work (Ephesians 5:22-6:9)
Where do you spend the vast majority of your non-sleeping time? Like most people, I imagine it's at home with your family and at your place of work. So how can we be used by God as lights in those places? Listen in today as we learn some about what the Scriptures tell us about marriage, parenting, and the workplace.
Big (Ephesians 3:14-21)
The love of God expressed in Ephesians 3:14-21 is BIG. In this extravagant prayer by Paul, we see that there is a measurelessness to God's love for us, and that not only makes us feel known and loved, but it should also spur us to pray similarly BIG prayers to God for others. Listen in today as we learn a few BIG prayers to pray for the city of Salem.
Jesus Reigns (Hebrews 12:1-3)
What is the true posture of victory? For this Resurrection Sunday sermon, listen in as we learn about how God's work of salvation and redemption is finished! What is Jesus's victory stance? He sat down on the throne of God.
The Most Important Thing About Us (Jonah 4:5-11)
What is the most important thing about you? As we arrive at the end of Jonah's epic story, we begin to finally see God reveal Jonah's deepest heart. What does Jonah care most about? Through the object lesson of a plant and worm, God not only reveals Jonah's heart, but ours as well. Along the way, we discover the most important thing about God too - that He loves humans more than we ever thought possible.
The Storm of Holy-Love (Jonah 1:4)
When storms come to us in life (pains, troubles, trials, etc.), often we are quick to ask "why?" But as we learn today from God's intervening storm in Jonah 1:4, there is something meaningful for us in the storms of life. Listen in today as we learn about God's character of perfect holiness and love, and how they meet us in grace in the storms of life, helping us to see Jesus clearly amidst the waves and wind.
Everlasting Father (Isaiah 9:6; John 17:1-5)
Nothing in our world is "everlasting" - not kings, not parents, not batteries, not milk! But the prophet Isaiah tells of a day when a Son is to be born who will be called "Everlasting Father." How are we are to understand how a son can be "Father" and how one born can also be called "Everlasting"? Listen in today as we learn from Jesus' words himself from John 17, and see the powerful relevance of Jesus today being "Everlasting Father."
The Family of the Kingdom (Colossians 3:18-4:1)
What is real family in the Kingdom of God look like? At first glance, it may look totally strange or counter to what we see in our modern culture. But listen in today as Dr. Dan Darko (Professor of New Testament at Gordon College) teaches us more about what true mutuality can look like in all our relationships.
The Sleeping God (Psalm 44)
Do you ever feel like God is sleeping in public? David felt that way in Psalm 44. Listen in with us today as we learn how God is completely in control and at rest simultaneously, loving us even when He seems asleep.
True Spirituality: Beauty and the Cross (Luke 15:11-32)
Humans are all beauty-seeking creatures. We love sunsets, delicious foods, the smell of spring flowers and so much more. But what is true beauty? Listen today to a well-known parable of Jesus, where He unveils for us the pursuing love of the Father.
Home For Christmas: Jesus (John 14:23)
When Jesus was born in a manger in Bethlehem those many years ago, more than just a sentimental story was unfolding. As we learn from John 14:23, we see that when God put on flesh in the person of Jesus, Love itself was introduced to the world. Listen in today as we learn more about how the Love of God displayed fully in the Person of Jesus Christ invites us into our truest possible Home - Himself.
The Church: Embracing His Grace (Acts 20)
Are you a hugger? What's the difference between an awkward, uncomfortable bear hug and a true embrace? Listen in with us today as we see how God's grace given to us in the Gospel of Jesus is God's true embrace of us. Not even our fragility can keep God from opening His arms to us. Rather, dispensing His grace in full, God embraces us so we can embrace others with that same transformative grace.
