Ezra
A Series on Rebuilding
Ezra - Week 5 - Confession and Repentance
May 21, 2023 • Joel Penney
The church is made up not only of leaders and the full congregation but of each individual member living in their own walk with Christ. Pastor Joel reminds us that it is our personal humbling through confession and repentance that allows us to realign ourselves with Christ's vision for us both personally and corporately as His church.
Ezra - Week 4 - The Place of Scripture
May 14, 2023 • Jon Thompson
Our weeks are full of voices pulling us in all sorts of directions and forming us as they do. Today, Pastor Jon reminds us that the most important voice of our lives - the one we need to know most well - is God's. We need to value and listen to His words and guidance as given to us through the Bible.
Ezra - Week 3 - Expecting Opposition
May 7, 2023 • Angela Mason
Opposition and barriers to doing the right thing come at unexpected times, but often we meet them just when we feel we can't overcome them. But as Pastor Ange reminds us, not only are these challenges to be expected but we have the everlasting hope of a mighty God who is powerful over all our barriers and can defeat all our oppositions.
Ezra - Week 2 - Faithfully Rebuilding
April 30, 2023 • Jon Thompson
It's exciting to start a new project with focus and enthusiasm, but after a while, it gets harder to keep the dedication up. Pastor Jon continues our foray into the book of Ezra, drawing our attention to how we as a church need to draw together and give what God has asked of us to truly continue the rebuilding with a spirit of Thanksgiving.
Ezra - Week 1 - First Steps
April 23, 2023 • Ezra 1
We never have everything under control. And just when we think we do, we hit that moment when we realize how wrong we are. Pastor Joel starts our journey through the book of Ezra, the first step in a rebuilding moment for Sanctus church, with our eyes focused on the God of everything.
