The Way Of The Cross

November 10, 2024 • Chris Reynolds • Matthew 27:32–46

Give

Jesus, the perfect Son of God, suffers and dies on the cross. This was his purpose in coming. He lived his entire life in obedience to the Father, and when it was time to go to the cross, he did not turn back. No one suffered more than Jesus did at the cross. Other men had died; other men had been crucified; but no one suffered more than Jesus did at the cross. So, why did Jesus have to suffer so much? Why did they do it to him, and why did he do it for us? Together we’ll examine, how Jesus bore the full pain of the cross. Jesus bore the full shame of the cross. Jesus bore the full insult of the cross. And then finally, Jesus bore the full penalty for sin at the cross.

A New Identity

November 24, 2024 • Joey Rodgers • Galatians 2:16–21

Who we are isn’t defined by our vocation or family - Our identity is determined by God who knit us together in our mother’s womb. Our identity is determined by His grace when we receive Jesus as Lord. We’re transformed from a sinner to saint, from lost to found, from death to life as God sets us apart from sin unto Himself making us a new creation. We were all created with an identity and for a purpose.

Can You Hear Me Now?

November 17, 2024 • Joey Rodgers • Acts 9:1–31

Do you remember the old Verizon commercial, Can you hear me now? This concept is a great reminder of one of the most essential disciplines in the Christian Life – learning to distinguish God’s voice in our lives. He continues to speak to us today, but never contrary to His Word. No spiritual discipline is more vital to living the Christian Life than having spiritual ears tuned to hear God moving. Let’s look to the story of Paul’s conversion to learn a few lessons on hearing and responding to God’s voice.

Fired Up

November 3, 2024 • Joey Rodgers • Daniel 3

The story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego is one of the most exciting stories in the Bible teaching us about the importance of true faith. Faith isn’t blind belief. It’s belief that has measured the facts available and has drawn a credible conclusion that the person/information is reliable. While we all may not be facing a literal fire in our lives, often, we do face fiery situations that test our faith to determine the depth of our trust in God.
