The Gospel of John (John 2:1-12)

This miracle — one of the most familiar in Jesus's ministry — is among the most misunderstood, as well. Why did Jesus transform the water into wine? What was the point of the miracle? As we explore John 2, we discover that the wine of God's grace in Jesus is better than religious observance or irreligious disobedience.
The Gospel of John (John 3)
October 5, 2014 • Nick Nowalk
In this sermon, guest speaker Nick Nowalk takes us through one of the most famous (and most misunderstood) part of the Bible, the third chapter of John. The phrase "born again," has gotten a lot of mileage, but do we really understand what it means? Nick helps us understand that more than simply a personal choice, the new birth is about being completely remade by God's grace in Jesus Christ for a whole new world that Jesus is bringing.

September 14, 2014 • Adam Mabry
In this sermon, Pastor Adam continues to walk us through the Gospel of John as we turn our attention to what it means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ — one who delights in dwelling with Jesus and one who desires to declare him to others.
The Gospel of John (John 4:1-45)
October 12, 2014 • Adam Mabry
As we continue in the book of John, we come to the story of the woman at the well. This woman represents the picture of someone who seems least likely to qualify for the love of Jesus. And yet, Jesus love comes to least of us. It's been said Christians are spiritual beggars telling other beggars where to find bread. In this text, we find bread.
The Gospel of John (John 11:45-12:19)

Control. We all want it, and many of us will do anything to get it and keep it. But what do we do when Jesus demands it? In this sermon, Pastor Adam explores the implications of a Jesus who demands control from us, and demonstrates he's good enough for us to trust him with it.
The Gospel of John (John 4:43-5:17)
October 19, 2014 • Adam Mabry
In this passage of the Scriptures, Pastor Adam unpacks a tale of two very different but very important miracles. As Jesus reveals himself further in these stories, we find him to be more than a miracle worker, but the Son of God, the giver of sovereign grace.
The Gospel of John (John 11)
January 18, 2015 • Adam Mabry
This familiar story — the story of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead — displays the love of Jesus to us. But how does Jesus love us? In what way is his love expressed? In this sermon Pastor Adam unpacks the sovereign, suffering, and victorious love of Jesus for his people.
The Gospel of John (John 2:1-12)
September 28, 2014 • Dr. Stephen Mansfield
In this sermon, special guest Dr. Stephen Mansfield taught us from John 13-25. In this familiar story, we find not a safe, gentle Jesus, but a dangerous, passionate Jesus. What was the object of his passion? The pure worship of God, the destruction of racist hatred, and the acceptance of the gentile nations into the family of God.
The Gospel of John (John 8:12-32)
November 16, 2014 • Adam Mabry
In this sermon, Pastor Adam unpacked Jesus' statement, "I am the Light of the World." As we'll see, the good news of Jesus as the light of the world involves the bad news that we are in darkness. But graciously, God doesn't leave us in darkness.
The Gospel of John (John 14:1-14)
February 22, 2015 • Adam Mabry
This passage of Scripture contains some of the most controversial statements that Jesus ever said. Here, Jesus explains that he and he alone is God the Son, and the exclusive way to the Father. In this message, Pastor Adam unpacks the nature of this message as good news and how it changes our lives.
The Gospel of John (John 14:15 - 16:8)
March 1, 2015 • Adam Mabry
As Jesus guides his disciples through his impending departure, we hear from him some of his most intense teaching yet. In this sermon, Pastor Adam explores the implications of Jesus' promise to send the Holy Spirit. Who is He? What does He do?
