Ezra finally makes his appearance in the book named after him. Pastor Herb lays out this portion of scripture in the following way:
I. A Role Model (Ezra 7:1-10)
II. Ezra in Action (Nehemiah 8:1-10)
III. Set your Heart
One truth from today: "You don't have to be a big name to be faithful to God. You don't have to complete great projects. Our desire must be faithfulness not fame. If your goal is to be known and remembered, you are likely living for yourself, not God."
We close our service today with "Everlasting God" led by our Worship Leader, Marshell Lombard. Enjoy.

Pastor Herb's final sermon in the Book of Ezra- "Repentance and Grace | Ezra 10:1-44. Here is the outline of Ezra 10. Path to the Finish Line: 1) Shecaniah's Encouragement (verses 1-4) 2) Ezra's Leadership (verses 5- 17) 3) Picture of Grace (verses 18-44) A couple of great lessons from this sermon. "When we are stuck in sin, there is always hope." "Repentance involves both confession and obedience" (verses 10-12)
"Ezra On His Knees"
May 9, 2021 • Pastor Herb Hartso III
This message brings us Ezra, on his knees because of discovering the sins of the Exiles, intermarrying with those that worship idols and not the Lord, the God of Israel. Pastor Herb cites scriptures, both in the Old testament and the New testament, walking us through God's design for marriage. To join with another of equal faith in Jesus Christ our Lord!
