Beyond the Grave

March 31, 2024 • Andrew Murch • Psalm 16

Psalm 16:1-11 | Andrew Murch | "For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol, or let your holy one see corruption." Looking back on Jesus' glorious resurrection, the Apostles remembered words originally penned by King David a thousand years before. God, faithful to his promises, delivered his Anointed One from the power of sin and death.

Forsaken

March 29, 2024 • Andrew Murch, Ben Potloff • Psalm 22

Psalm 22:1-31 | Andrew Murch & Ben Potloff | On the cross, Jesus cried out, quoting Psalm 22, saying, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" The Son experienced the anguish of separation from the Father so that sinners would not have to if they would put their faith in Jesus and be saved. On Good Friday, we remember and reflect on the cost of our redemption.

Psalm 145

December 31, 2023 • Todd Miles • Psalm 145

Psalm 145:1-21 | Todd Miles | "I will extol you, my God and King, and bless your name forever and ever." Authored by King David, Psalm 145 stands as an incredible song of praise to God for who he is and the wondrous things he has done. Here, we see that our God is supremely and uniquely worthy of praise because he is both Great and Good, wholly other and tenderly near to his people.

The Servant

April 7, 2023 • Andrew Murch • Isaiah 53:1–9

Isaiah 53:1-9 | Andrew Murch | The gospel is a message about the servant who came to suffer, the king who stepped off his throne, the savior who had to die. All across the pages of Scripture, the work of Christ is proclaimed. On Good Friday, we remember the price that Christ paid to make a way for sinners to be reconciled to God.

Eyes on the Road

January 8, 2023 • Mike Clarensau • John 4:27–42

John 4:27-42 | Mike Clarensau | Jesus' interaction with the Samaritan woman at the well is well known. Less well-known is the scene that follows between Jesus and his disciples. The Samaritan woman's actions are contrasted with the disciples' confusion. Here, we see that we must see what Jesus sees if we will do what He would have us do.

God’s Resolve. Our Resolution?

January 1, 2023 • Todd Miles

Philippians 1:6 | Todd Miles | "And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ." In a verse so seemingly straightforward, there is a message of great hope and promise. Here, we see that God intends to fulfill his work in his people.

Identity Crisis

May 1, 2022 • Gavin Hesse

1 Peter 2:4-10 | Gavin Hesse | The New Testament teaches that God is building for himself a people. Peter zeros in on this truth as he writes his first letter. While the world may be unaware of, or even hostile to, God's work, a mighty work is still being done. Here, we see that believers are being built as one to proclaim the Son.

An Accepting Church

January 23, 2022 • Nathan Noorlun

Nathan Noorlun • This week, we come to the end of our series in Paul's first letter to the Thessalonians. The final words of this letter encourage and exhort us to live in line with the ways of God's kingdom. Here, we see that gospel-centered reminders equip a gospel-centered church.

A Heart of Humility

January 2, 2022 • Noah Soistmann

What role does humility play in the Christian life? As we examine Philippians 2:1-11, we see the ultimate example of humility, and we hear a clear charge to model that same humility in our lives. Here, we see that submission to Christ produces Christlike humility.

A King Like No Other

December 26, 2021 • Todd Miles • Isaiah 9:1–7

What does Scripture mean when it talks about Jesus as a king and the kingdom of God? As we examine Isaiah 9:1-7, we see God speaking through the prophet Isaiah about a king and a kingdom. Here, we see that Christmas celebrates a Kingdom like no other with a King like no other, with a Reign like no other, and a Guarantee like no other.

Jesus Christ, the Divine Son: Human Sufferer or God in Disguise?

December 31, 2017 • Todd Miles

One Job

June 19, 2016 • Andrew Murch

Those who are fathers know it is not an easy job, but it is also not a job that can be ignored. This week we dive into the Scriptures to take a lesson from both a human father and God the Father. Join us as Pastor Andrew Murch preaches Hebrews 12:3-11 and 1 Kings 1:5-10.

Hill Song

May 8, 2016 • Andrew Murch

On Mother's day we take a break from Galatians and consider the relationship of work and rest in the Psalms. In all our striving, be it parenthood or elsewhere, there's only one place of rest for our souls. Join us as Pastor Andrew Murch preaches Psalm 127.
