The Snake In The Garden

December 22, 2024 • Matt Slocum • Genesis 3:1–5, Genesis 27:23, Matthew 7:15, Revelation 13:11, 2 Corinthians 10:1–6

We all know the story of the snake in the Garden of Eden—but have you ever wondered if there’s more to it than what meets the eye? Pastor Matt invites us to take a closer look at this familiar tale and explore how it reveals the seeds of distrust sown between us and God.

This mistrust isn’t just a moment in history; it echoes throughout scripture and our own lives, especially when we add to what God says. Think about it—have you ever found yourself quoting scripture and then adding but to it? "God is good, but..." "His promises are true, but..." Those tiny additions can undermine our trust and distort His truth.

Join us as we uncover the deeper implications of this story and learn how to replace mistrust with faith in God's word alone.

The Ideal Life

December 15, 2024 • Matt Slocum • Exodus 26:26–27, 1 Corinthians 14:33–35, Genesis 2:18–25

What if we understood how to live life as God intended? This week in our Genesis series, Pastor Matt explores the Edenic ideal—God's perfect design for humanity. Imagine a life where we're vulnerable with each other, open to one another, and stand with one another without shame or hiding. Where Romans 8:1 "There is no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus informs the way we view our past and present. If you struggle with shame, this week's message, "The Ideal Life" will encourage you and will help set you free! 📖✨ #NWCKC NewWineChurch #GenesisSeries #NoShame #GodsPlan #Romans8

God Will Turn It For Good

December 1, 2024 • Matt Slocum • Genesis 2:4–17, John 4:3–14, Romans 8:28

Continuing in the Genesis Series, Pastor Matt unpacks the Verses in Genesis 2. We again draw parallels that all things in the Bible are about Jesus, and that things repeat. He also shows us that things that were meant to signify death are used in ways that bring life. This message is a great reminder that even when things seem to have the worst possible outcome, God is going to use it for His Good. Remember - if it's not good yet, He's not done with it.
