In our passage today, we get a glimpse into real reality with the incomparable glory of the risen Jesus at the center. It reminds us that no matter what we face, or how bad things may look, the risen Jesus is at work in unimaginable ways.
Waiting For His Son Whom He Raised
April 9, 2023 • Pastor Adam Sinnett • 1 Thessalonians 1:2–10
On Good Friday we remembered Jesus' substitutionary death on the cross. Today, on Easter, we celebrate Jesus' climactic victory over the grave through his resurrection. In Paul's first letter to the Thessalonians, he draws a line from Jesus' resurrection to his return. He argues that the reality of the former guarantees the reality of the latter. But, did Jesus rise? How do we know? Can we know?
April 17, 2022 • Pastor Adam Sinnett • 1 Peter 1:3–9
On Good Friday, we gathered to remember Jesus’ death on the cross for the forgiveness of sin. Today, on Easter, we gather to rejoice in Jesus’ climactic victory over the grave through his resurrection. To that end, we will sing, recite the Apostles Creed, read Scripture, and consider where deep, solid joy is found from 1 Peter 1:3-9. He is risen!
April 4, 2021 • Pastor Adam Sinnett • 1 Peter 1:3–5
On Good Friday we remembered Jesus’ substitutionary death on the cross. Today, on Easter, we celebrate his climactic victory over the grave through his resurrection. In light of Jesus' resurrection, what does it mean for us to be "born again"? In 1 Peter 1:3-5, we consider what this new birth means, why it is necessary for salvation, and what difference it makes in the lives of Jesus' people.
April 12, 2020 • Pastor Adam Sinnett • 1 Corinthians 15:12–20
On Good Friday we remembered Jesus’ substitutionary death on the cross. Today, on Easter, we celebrate Jesus’ climactic victory over the grave through his resurrection. But, did he rise? How do we know? Can we know? Even if he did, what difference does it make for us today? These are the questions the Apostle Paul addresses head-on in 1 Cor. 15:12-20. Let’s dive in together…
March 30, 2018 • Pastor Adam Sinnett • Matthew 26:1, Matthew 27:54
Good Friday and Easter have been set apart for centuries to specifically remember and reflect on the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ and all that these two events accomplished for those who embrace him by faith. This weekend we remember these two great events and their singular purpose: God reconciling sinners to himself.
Easter: Go Therefore...
April 16, 2017 • Pastor Adam Sinnett • Matthew 28:16–20
He is risen! Today, on Easter, we gather to celebrate Jesus’ climactic defeat of Satan, sin, and death through his death on the cross and resurrection from the grave. To do that we will turn Matthew 28:16-20, a passage famously known as the Great Commission. These familiar words give us insight into the reality of Jesus’ resurrection, the uniqueness of Jesus’ identity, and the surprising nature of Jesus’ unfolding mission.
The Lion, the Lamb, and a New People
March 27, 2016 • Pastor Adam Sinnett • Revelation 5
Today, on Easter, we gather to celebrate Jesus’ climactic defeat of Satan, sin, and death itself through his bodily resurrection from the grave. To do that we will turn to the fifth chapter of the book of Revelation. In this chapter, the Apostle John pulls back the curtain on reality and gives us insight into what is most real. At its center is the Lion who conquered, the risen Lamb that was slain and a new ransomed people from every tribe, tongue, and nation.
Last Supper
March 25, 2016 • Pastor Adam Sinnett • Mark 14:12–16
Today we remember the murder of Jesus the Christ on a cross. Good Friday marks the day the King of Glory set aside his glory that we might share His glory. God the Father poured out His just wrath on God the Son in our place that we might become sons and daughters. On Good Friday we see the reality of our need for God and rejoice in the reality of God's love for us in Jesus.
Five life-giving, joy-producing, hope-creating resurrection realities
April 5, 2015 • Pastor Adam Sinnett • 1 Corinthians 15:12–20
This morning we gather to celebrate Jesus' climactic defeat of Satan, sin, and death through his bodily resurrection from the grave. In 1Corinthians 15:12-20 the Apostle Paul lays out what it would mean for our faith if Jesus had not been raised from the dead, and assures us that He has, in fact, been raised. In light of this fact, we examine the realities that those who are in Christ are now forgiven, our faith is not in vain, we will not perish but spend eternity with God, our spreading of the Gospel is relevant and necessary, and we can be counted as enviable because our identity is in Jesus.
