Isaiah (Season 1): Ahaz's Choice - Don Weiss

Cambridge, MA

November 12, 2023 • Don Weiss • Isaiah 7:1–14, Isaiah 9:2–7

We all have our coping mechanisms, and so did Ahaz. When Ahaz ruled Judah, he faced a threat from surrounding kings. God sent Isaiah to tell him that he didn’t need to fear, only to trust. Ahaz chose to trust in something other than God. We face the same choice and the same outcomes.

November 26, 2023 • Adam Mabry • Isaiah 24:1–3, Isaiah 24:7–12, Isaiah 25:6–9, Isaiah 26:1–6, Isaiah 27:1

Those who love the lofty city with its promises of immediate gratification await God’s judgement. In contrast, those who remain faithful to God will reap the rewards of the heavenly city. God’s message through Isaiah tells us that what we love today, what gives us joy and pleasure, reveals where we live.

November 19, 2023 • Adam Mabry • Isaiah 19

Chapters 13–23 are full of judgment passages against seven different nations. The passage addressed to Egypt makes the target clear—pride. God confronts their pride, yet judgment is the very instrument God uses to transform Egypt into a worshiping nation. In this sermon, we explore what Egypt’s story has to do with us.

Isaiah (Season 1): Isaiah’s Mission - Adam Mabry

November 5, 2023 • Adam Mabry • Isaiah 6

God promised to transform Judah from something rotten into something beautiful. But how? Instead of getting the “how” we get to the “who.” God promises to use Isaiah in the transformation process. Isaiah’s call informs the call of every disciple of Jesus, and shows us how God uses us in his plan to renew our world.
