Deuteronomy 6:1-9 // Taylor FairThis sermon focuses on the core of the ancient faith known as the Shema. Found in Deuteronomy 6:1-9, these verses serve as a vital command for the people of Israel to love God with every fiber of their being. We look at the call to pass this faith down to the next generation and how to weave his truth into the everyday rhythms of life, from the moment we wake up until we lie down.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2546/responses/new26.03.22
Numbers 13-14 // Bill GormanIn this teaching on Numbers 13-14, we analyze the mission of the twelve spies and the two very different reports they brought back. While ten spies focused on the strength of the walled cities and the size of the inhabitants, Joshua and Caleb looked at the power of the one who promised them victory. The sermon examines the consequences of the people's rebellion—their desire to return to Egypt and the subsequent judgment that led to forty years of wandering. We discuss how fear can blind us to his provision and how trust in his word is the only way to move forward into the "land flowing with milk and honey."SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2546/responses/new26.03.15
Leviticus 16 // Bill GormanIn this teaching on Leviticus 16, we examine the detailed instructions given to Aaron regarding the Day of Atonement. The sermon explains the gravity of entering behind the veil and the necessity of the sin offering and the burnt offering. A central focus is placed on the two goats: one sacrificed to satisfy justice and the "scapegoat" sent into the wilderness to carry away the guilt of the camp. We discuss how these rituals illustrate his mercy and the lengths he goes to so that his presence can remain among his people. This sermon helps us understand the weight of sin and the beauty of being made clean in his sight.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2546/responses/new26.03.08
Exodus 20 // Taylor FairIn this teaching on Exodus 20, we look at the heart of the biblical law and the significance of the Ten Commandments. The sermon breaks down the two sections of the tablets: the first focusing on our devotion to God—prohibiting idols and honoring his name—and the second focusing on our conduct toward our neighbors. We discuss the awe-inspiring atmosphere of the mountain, the thunder and lightning that accompanied his voice, and the role of Moses as a mediator. This sermon invites us to see these commandments as a reflection of his holy character and a roadmap for a life of justice and peace.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/49569655 PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2546/responses/new26.03.01
Exodus 1-15 // Bill GormanThis sermon covers the foundational journey of the Israelites as they transition from harsh oppression in Egypt to miraculous freedom. We follow the rise of Moses, the confrontation with Pharaoh through the ten plagues, and the climactic crossing of the Red Sea.

Genesis 37-50 // Taylor FairThis sermon explores the life of Joseph, spanning from his colorful coat in Canaan to his seat of power in Egypt. We follow the narrative of Genesis 37-50, examining how Joseph was betrayed by his brothers, sold into slavery, and falsely imprisoned. Despite these hardships, the story reveals how God’s hidden hand was at work, positioning Joseph to save entire nations from famine. We focus on the climax of the story—the emotional reunion and reconciliation of the family—and the profound truth that what man intends for evil, God intends for good.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/49562829 PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2546/responses/new26.02.15
Genesis 21-28 // Bill GormanThis sermon covers the critical transition in the patriarchal narrative from Genesis 21 through 28. We witness the birth of Isaac, the fulfillment of God’s long-standing promise, and the difficult testing of Abraham’s faith on Mount Moriah. As the story shifts to the next generation, we see the search for Rebekah, the birth of the twins Jacob and Esau, and the dramatic conflict over the birthright and the blessing. This study emphasizes that God’s plan continues through imperfect families and that His sovereign choice remains the driving force behind the history of redemption.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2546/responses/new26.02.08
Genesis 17 // Bill GormanThis sermon explores the profound developments in Genesis 17, where God appears to a ninety-nine-year-old Abram to reaffirm his promises. We examine the introduction of God as El Shaddai (God Almighty), the significant name changes for both Abraham and Sarah, and the institution of circumcision as a permanent physical sign of the covenant. The message focuses on the necessity of walking blamelessly before God and the assurance that nothing is too difficult for the Lord, even when human circumstances seem impossible.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/49556199 PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2546/responses/new26.02.01
Genesis 11 // Matt RustenThis sermon covers the building of the Tower of Babel in Genesis 11, a pivotal moment where human pride collided with divine authority. We examine the transition from a world with one language to the sudden diversity of tongues, exploring why God viewed this unified human project as a threat. By looking at the heart of the builders, we learn about the dangers of seeking to make a name for ourselves rather than honoring the name of God, and how this event explains the origin of different nations and cultures.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/49551516 PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2546/responses/new26.01.25
Genesis 6-9 // Devion EversThis sermon covers the momentous narrative of the Great Flood found in Genesis 6-9. We examine the grieving heart of God in the face of widespread human wickedness, the faithfulness of Noah in a corrupt generation, and the massive scale of divine judgment. Beyond the storm, we focus on the emergence of the remnant from the ark and the establishment of the Noahic Covenant, marked by the rainbow as a sign of God’s mercy and his commitment to never again destroy the earth by water.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/49550158 PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2546/responses/new26.01.18
Genesis 3 // Bill GormanThis sermon focuses on the pivotal events of Genesis 3, commonly known as "The Fall."

By studying the dialogue between the serpent and Eve, we gain insight into how faith is challenged and how God responds to human failure with both justice and a profound promise of future hope.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/49546501 PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2546/responses/new26.01.11
Genesis 1-2 // Taylor FairThis sermon explores the opening chapters of Genesis, focusing on the intentional and orderly way God brought the universe into existence.

Revelation 7:9-17; 21:3 // Bill GormanThis sermon paints a glorious picture of the future by exploring Revelation 7:9-17 and 21:3. See the great multitude, robed in white, gathered from every nation before the throne of God and the Lamb, worshipping with loud voices. We examine the promise of eternal comfort—no more hunger, thirst, or sorrow—as the Lamb shepherds them to living water. The teaching culminates in the profound declaration of God dwelling directly with humanity (Revelation 21:3), signifying the perfect, eternal relationship. A message of hope and victory for believers.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2546/responses/new25.12.28
Acts 2:1-13; Ephesians 2:19-22 // Bill GormanThis sermon connects the Day of Pentecost (Acts 2:1-13) with the imagery of the Church as God's Temple (Ephesians 2:19-22). Acts describes the arrival of the Holy Spirit with wind and fire, enabling believers to speak in other languages, breaking down barriers of nationality and race. Ephesians explains the profound result: we are no longer strangers but fellow citizens and part of God's household, being built together on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus as the cornerstone. Discover how the Spirit’s power unites a diverse people into one dwelling place for God.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2546/responses/new25.12.21
Luke 2:1-17; John 1:1-18 // Rachel NesseLuke presents the humble birth of Jesus in Bethlehem, focusing on the historical event, the census, the manger, and the joyful announcement to the shepherds. John’s opening reveals the cosmic identity of Christ as the Word of God—who was with God, was God, and became flesh. This sermon beautifully connects the majesty of the eternal Son with the simplicity of the child in the manger, showing that the Creator entered His own creation as our Savior and Light. Essential for understanding the profound reality of Christmas.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2553/responses/new25.12.14
