God, have mercy on me, a sinner

June 7, 2020 • Pastor Seth Amerine

This week we begin a 5 part sermon series that works from Jerry Bridges’ excellent book “Respectable Sins”. It is a series about the sins that we in the church don’t often address. This Sunday we are looking at my favorite parable in Luke 18:9-14 and the importance of being aware of your own sinfulness.

The Sinful Ignorance of Discontentment

July 5, 2020 • Pastor Seth Amerine

This week we close out our series on respectable sins with an examination of discontent. For those who read ahead check out 2 Corinthians 12:7-10 and Philippians 4:11-13. And consider these questions: In what situations did Paul say he could be content and why? Why is discontentment sinful? Is there discontentment that is not sinful but healthy? And in what areas of your life do you struggle with being discontent?

Like a City Broken Into

This week we talk about self-control. Many of us exercise self-control in some areas of our lives but not in others – putting the “healthier” areas of lives at risk! Take some time and read 1 Corinthians 10:23-33 and prayerfully examine what Paul is saying there about self-control.

Opposed by God

June 21, 2020 • Pastor Seth Amerine

This week we examine four areas where sinful pride sneaks into the Christian’s way and leads to contempt and judgment for others.
