Confidence in the Word of God

2 Kings 2:15-25

July 6, 2024 • Joshua Moffit • 2 Kings 2:15–25

On what do you place your confidence? Whether we like to admit it or not our confidence is often misplaced in things that are fleeting. Elisha teaches us that for those who follow the LORD, the foundation of our confidence is the Word of God empowered by the Spirit of God. The Word of God alone is always true and always accomplishes the purposes of God. Jesus Christ died and rose to ensure that his Word will overcome all opposition and his promises to us are certain.

The “Why” of Christianity

October 12, 2024 • Tim Cain • 2 Kings 13

We talk a lot about “how to become a Christian?” or “how to live the Christian life?” but in this message, we are going to take some time to think about the “why.” What is it that ought to motivate us to follow God? As we look at 2 Kings 13 we will consider 4 different motivations for being a Christian in order to see which one is big enough to keep us following God all of our life.

Grief and Our Great Enemy

October 5, 2024 • Tim Cain • 2 Kings 8:7–15

How would you respond if you looked into the future and perceived a new political leader coming to power that you knew for certain was bent on bringing untold suffering on you and the ones you loved? This was the position Elisha found himself in here in 2 Kings 8. However, Elisha is not the only one who finds himself facing an enemy that is stronger than he is and bent on bringing him harm. Paul tells us that, as Christians, we too find ourselves in a similar situation. In this message, we will consider one of the ways that the Bible calls us to respond to it.

Loss, Regret, and Restoration

September 28, 2024 • Tim Cain • 2 Kings 8:1–6

What do we do with our regrets? And how does the promise of restoration deal with all that we end up missing out on in life because of the things we have lost? In this passage, the author of 2 Kings writes to a people who have lost everything and are struggling with regret. He gives us a glimmer of hope and helps us see why we should continue to wait for the LORD even in seasons of significant loss.
