Rooted and Grounded

July 30, 2023 • Pastor Tim Veenstra • Ephesians 3:14–21

The Apostle Paul, kneeling before the Father, prays a prayer for the church, a prayer for all generations. May our prayer be the same for our brothers and sisters. May we be able to experience the surpassing love of Christ in such a dramatic way that it changes our lives and the way that we pray.

Live... Really Live

July 23, 2023 • Pastor Tim Veenstra • Luke 10:25–37

Jesus shares this profound parable in response to a teacher of the law’s two questions. Jesus flips the script, and instead of being challenged by the teacher of the Law, He becomes the one who does the challenging. Jesus offers us insight into what the Kingdom of God is like and how we can experience His Kingdom.

What Kind of Obedience?

July 16, 2023 • Dr. Keith Koteskey • Psalm 119:49–72

Nearly all of us would agree that a marker of faithfulness to God is obedience to His Word. After all, James tells us that we should not merely listen to the Word, but we should do what it says. However, many of us are not quick to consider the attitude with which we “do” it. In Psalm 119, we are challenged to move beyond begrudging compliance to a joyful engagement. Today we’re challenged to think about what kind of obedience marks our lives.

O Lord, Our Lord

July 9, 2023 • Pastor Tim Veenstra • Psalm 8

May the church never lose sight of how great our God is in all the heavens and the earth. May the church never forget to consider the majesty, the magnitude, or the might of our God. O Lord, our Lord forgive us of making too much of ourselves and too little of You. O Lord, our Lord how majestic is Your name in all the earth!
