When Jesus Feels Far Away

John 14:15-24

June 23, 2024 • Tim Harris • John 14:15–24

As the sun sets on Jesus’ public ministry, he gives his soon-to-be-devastated disciples three promises that hinge on two conditions and lead to one pursuit.

It is Finished!

November 3, 2024 • John 19:16–30

Jesus' final words on the cross, “It is finished,” were not a surrender but a powerful declaration of victory. In this sermon we discover how this truth changes everything, inviting us to live with purpose and freedom each day.

Kingdoms Collide

October 27, 2024 • Jordan Boyd • John 18:28–38

Jesus, the True King, was rejected by those he came to save and delivered to Pilate as a criminal. In this pivotal moment, Jesus declares that his kingdom is not of this world but transcends it, ruling over all things, both spiritual and eternal. Even as he faces trial and death, he remains sovereign and in complete control. When Pilate asks, "What is truth?" he voices humanity's deep longing. Yet, tragically, he misses the Truth standing right before him—Jesus, the embodiment of all he seeks.

The Faithless & The Faithful One

October 20, 2024 • Justin Rahmes • John 18:12–27

In this passage, we delve into the intense moments that follow Jesus’ arrest, where betrayal and denial cast a shadow on the eve of his crucifixion. As Jesus faces his accusers, we witness Peter's faltering courage as he denies his relationship with Christ not once, but three times. This sermon will explore the themes of fear, human frailty, and the remarkable grace extended to us even when we fall short.
