The sin that plagues us

New Community Church of Tacoma

The sin that plagues us

May 21, 2023 • Bo Noonan • Genesis 2:16–17, Genesis 3:8, James 1:15, Ephesians 2:1–10

Bo Noonan continues our series on foundational beliefs of followers of Jesus. This week we look at the sin that plagues us from a biblical perspective. This teaching is so important, because, as we will see, if we have a wrong view of sin we will have a wrong view of everything in the world that really matters. As big of a statement as that is, it isn't an overstatement.

Jesus' glorious return

June 18, 2023 • Bo Noonan • Revelation 21:1, 2 Peter 3:5–10, Acts 2:17, Matthew 19:27–30, Isaiah 65:17

Bo Noonan teaches about the return of Jesus as we end our series "You really believe that?". He unpacks the fact that Jesus's followers are an "end times" people who are awaiting the fullness of his return. We are those awaiting the coming of a new heaven and a new earth and the restoration of all things, rather than those looking to escape to some place in the sky.

The grace of our God

June 11, 2023 • Wes Swarthout • Luke 14:12–24, Ephesians 2:1–10

Wes Swarthout lays out the beauty of God's grace that he lavishes on us through Jesus.

The Christian ethic

June 4, 2023 • Bo Noonan • Romans 1:24–32, Mark 7:12–13, Matthew 23:23–24, Matthew 15:19–20, Matthew 19:3–6

Bo Noonan teaches about the Christian ethic. He underlines the importance of discerning between cultural and religious rules and morality versus what the Bible clearly lays out as a loving Father's ethics. What does it mean to come under the law of love in a culture that may use the word "love" differently than the Bible? Why is the Christian sexual ethic what it is? We look at some of these questions from a biblical viewpoint.
