Our faith is built on enduring insult. Jesus is abused and mocked, but victorious!
What we build our theology and worldview matters. We must approach Jesus as our Lord and savior.
Repentance is a turning away from sin, turning to Christ, and a gift from God.
Jesus will wipe away the bitter tears of biblical repentance.
A weak witness, a pathetic pretense, a willing blindness and steady hatred are characteristics of misplaced authority.
How do we not lose hope in God's goodness when his providence is contrary to our expectation.
Jesus pleading with the Father gives us hope.
Jesus promises to gather his denying sheep. We must keep our eyes on Jesus.
Our hope is centered around the person of Christ, a covenant, and a promise.
We Treasure Jesus, Destroy Idolatry and Wage War Against Sin.
The plans of God and the plots of man.
Awaiting the unexpected by looking to our eternal reward.
Waiting for the second coming by growing our stewardship.
Waiting faithfully for Christ's return means the church needs to be prepared for a delay.
The simplicity, focus, and result of remaining faithful.
