In the Last Supper, Jesus does more than just celebrate the Passover. He re-interprets this meal for all time and invites us to pull up a set. But what are we doing at this table? Every time we celebrate communion, we are committing, communing, and commemorating Jesus Christ.

The Great Commission: Matt. 28:16-20

November 26, 2023 • Cole Feix • Matthew 28:16–20

In the final scene of Matthew's Gospel, Jesus commissions his disciples to make disciples of all the nations. This command comes as a culmination of the Gospel but also of many themes in the Bible. Every believer is called into the work of building the kingdom, evangelizing the nations, and teaching them to obey all that Jesus commanded. The gospel ends the way it started, with a promise that God will be with us always.

God's Great Story: Matt. 28:1-10

November 19, 2023 • Grant Humphreys • Matthew 28:1–10

Before the world began, God was telling a story. When he created the universe, his space and our space completely overlapped, but when sin entered the world, we were separated from God. So God sent his Son Jesus Christ to live a perfect life, save us from sin, and reunite Heaven and earth. Because of the resurrection of Jesus, we look forward to the day when we are reunited with God perfectly. Until then, we live and pray in for things on earth to be as in heaven.

The Parable of the Talents: Matt. 25:14-30

October 29, 2023 • Cole Feix • Matthew 25:14–30

Jesus's favorite way to describe the time between his resurrection and the second coming was through the picture of a master going away and returning. In a series of parables, Jesus instructs us on what to do as we wait for his return. The parable of the talents is a common parable with a powerful meaning; we should be working for the kingdom until the King returns.
