Hope through Confession

Psalm 106

September 3, 2022 • Tim Cain • Psalm 106

Where do you seek hope in the midst of suffering? Often when things get difficult we seek hope in convincing ourselves that it isn’t our fault. We defend or justify or compare our involvement to others believing that the path to hope lies in our innocence. But Psalm 106 comes to show us another way. In Psalm 106 we find that as crazy as it might sound, the path to hope actually lies through confession. If you are wondering how that is possible this sermon will seek to answer that question.

Bringing the Real you to the Real God

September 9, 2023 • Tim Cain • Psalm 22

What do we do with the pieces of our life that don’t seem to fit together with what we believe about God? What do we do when something we feel deeply seems to contradict what we have been taught about God? What do we do with our “Why’s”? In Psalm 22 we see David wrestling between the way that he feels and the things that he believes about God. In this passage he will guide us on what to do with our unanswered questions.

The LORD is God, and He is Good!

August 27, 2022 • Tim Cain • Psalm 100

How can the Psalmist call us to serve the LORD with gladness? In verse 3 the Psalmist explains that the reason he calls us to serve the LORD is because he is the God who made us. But how can he ask us to serve him with gladness? In verse 5 the Psalmist argues that the reason we can serve the LORD with gladness is because he isn’t just God, he is also good. In this sermon we will see how God’s greatness and his goodness combine to make praising him both the natural and the most enjoyable response we could have to encountering his glory.

Learning from Death

August 20, 2022 • Tim Cain • Psalm 90

We live in a culture that has done everything it can to distract itself from death. It says, “Since there is nothing that can be done to stop death, what’s the good of thinking about it. In Psalm 90 we are given an alternative to ignoring death. Here Moses writes to a people surrounded by death and his advice for them was to learn from it. Learn to number your days; learn to fear God more than people or circumstances; and learn that even in the darkest and most hopeless circumstances your God is able to satisfy you with his steadfast love and bring true joy and gladness into your life.
