In this Christmas sermon, Pastor Chad Kettler focuses on Jesus Christ as the supreme King who fulfills Old Testament prophecies about the messianic throne of David. He explains that Jesus deserves total allegiance in our lives because He is the eternal King over Israel and all nations. Jesus obtained His kingdom through dying on the cross for sinners and rising from the dead in power and glory. Pastor Chad hopes we feel the weight of Jesus' supremacy so that we give Him our full devotion, obey His Word, and find rest under His perfect reign during this Advent season. Ultimately the sermon calls us to enthrone Christ as the rightful King over every area of our lives.

Son of Abraham

December 10, 2023 • Chad Kettler

In this sermon, Pastor Chad Kettler traces the biblical narrative of God's promise to bless all nations through Abraham and his offspring. Though Israel failed in its mission to represent God and bring blessing, Jesus Christ fulfilled this role as the ultimate Son of Abraham. Jesus accomplished what Israel could not by perfectly keeping the law and willingly dying on the cross to bear the curse for sin, so that through faith in him all people can receive the promised blessing of righteousness and eternal life. Kettler emphasizes that law-keeping and good works cannot make anyone righteous - the only way is through faith in Christ, who endured the curse of sin so that the blessing promised to Abraham would come even to the Gentiles. The sermon calls for renewed joy and celebration in what Christ has accomplished for sinners through his death on the cross.

Son of God

December 24, 2023 • Chad Kettler

In this Christmas Eve sermon, Pastor Chad Kettler explores the meaning of Jesus as the Son of God. He explains that Jesus has eternally existed as the divine Word, the agent of creation who is fully God yet distinct from the Father. The incredible miracle of Christmas is that this eternal Word added humanity to Himself, becoming flesh and dwelling among humankind out of God's great love and grace, despite people's sin and rebellion. When Jesus took on human form, He displayed God's glory and goodness, revealing that God is abundant in grace, mercy, and steadfast love toward sinners. By gazing upon Christ's glory in the manger and later on the cross, we can receive the gift of eternal life and fellowship with God if we believe and trust in Him alone.
