Text: Luke 14:25-33This week, we read challenging words from Jesus on what one must do to become a disciple. They are not a call to destructive behaviors, but we recognize they have purpose; a way of setting us forth with a mission to follow Jesus and not let the temptations of other allegiances get in…
“Fishers of Men – Judgment and Grace”Text: Luke 5:1-11The use of fishing imagery when Jesus calls His disciples in Luke is familiar to us. Fishing-related imagery is also used in other prophetic scriptures, usually in a way that judges the people. Pastor Tim explores some of these and explains that Jesus reframes this imagery to…
“The Weeping Prophet: The Lone Voice”Text: Jeremiah 28:1-17Our series on Jeremiah concludes with his exchange with Hananiah, a national prophet. Up against Hananiah’s false assurances and flashy illustrations, Jeremiah remains true to the message that he was given from God. This passage reminds us of the importance of faithfulness to the Lord in our lives,…
“The Weeping Prophet: Tears We Know”Text: Jeremiah 20:7-13Jeremiah’s writings and laments come from his heart, sometimes portraying God as a protagonist and sometimes as an antagonist. All the while, he recognizes that all his internal and external struggles can be brought before God. Likewise, it allows us to recognize the reality of who we are…
“The Weeping Prophet: Tears for Salvation – August 10, 2025”The call to repentance the Lord sends to the people of Israel through Jeremiah uses an image familiar to both them and us today; a potter. God wants to be with them on the path that He made so that they become the vessels He designed…
“The Weeping Prophet: Tears for Salvation – August 3, 2025”Text: Jeremiah 17:1-10Where do we turn to for our help and strength when things get hard? The “weeping prophet” Jeremiah warns us about how devious the heart can in when seeking release from what is difficult and trying in life. He encourages the nation of Judah…
“Unique Messages for Specific Times: Jude”Text: JudeIn this final week of the “Unique Messages for Specific Times” sermon series, we look at the book of Jude. This letter is a reminder that how we behave matters while claiming to be a Christian. If we act in a way that takes advantage of the gift of…
“Unique Messages for Specific Times: Philemon”In his letter to Philemon, Paul invites us to live graciously and lovingly towards the people around us – brothers and sisters waiting to experience and receive Christ in their life. We have the privilege of being part of that work, to help them receive the saving power of God…
“Unique Messages for Specific Times: 3 John”We continue with our series looking at smaller New Testament letters which were written directly for their audience but still contain a message for us today. 3 John remind us of the ways in which hospitality towards those we consider foreign or strange is at the heart of Christian…
“Unique Messages for Specific Times: 2 John”The world can tell a lot about someone based on how they walk. The letter of 2 John is all about how we should walk as Christians, following the greatest commandment to love our neighbors, even in the midst of those who act against us.
“Unique Messages for Specific Times: 1 John 2:18-29”Text: 1 John 2:18-29We begin a five-part series examining New Testament letters written to the early church at a particular time in history and looking through the language of their times to find the message of the Good News that still applies to us today. Our first passage…
Text: Luke 8:26-39The story of Jesus and the man possessed by many demons reminds us that being the people of God does not allow for an idea of holiness that keeps people chained up, but instead recognizes that God brings liberation from the powers that enslave us.
Text: Romans 5:1-5In today’s passage, Paul speaks to an audience of early Christians who have suffered because of their faith. Just as Jesus was glorified and justified through His suffering, even today, if our faithfulness causes the world to impose suffering upon us, we are all recipients of the hope of the Resurrection and a…
“Finding Our Prophetic Voice: Journey with Elijah – Mantle Passed”Text: 1 Kings 19:15-21We finish our series about Elijah by hearing how he was faithful to God’s call to train and equip others to carry on his ministry. Today is also Pentecost, where we celebrate the gift of the Holy Spirit descending to the disciples, equipping…
Finding Our Prophetic Voice: Journey with Elijah – 1 Kings 19:1-14Text: 1 Kings 19:1-14We continue reading the story of Elijah, who fears for his life in this week’s passage after he is threatened. God does not always sweep away everything that is wrong in the world, but the evil that exists does not wipe out…
“Finding Our Prophetic Voice: Journey with Elijah – 1 Kings 18”Text: 1 Kings 18In today’s passage, Elijah is up against the prophets of Baal to prove to Ahab that the Lord is the one true God. Elijah names his faith by calling on God. As people finding our prophetic voice, we also must not forget…
Text: 1 Kings 17We begin a new sermon series entitled “Finding Our Prophetic Voice” where we will go through the story of the prophet Elijah and understand how he becomes a prophet and represents faithfulness to the mission and message of God has for him and his people. In this first installment, God uses Elijah…
Text: Psalm 19:12-14, 1 John 3:1-10Pastor Kim Richardson joins us this week to talk about overcoming temptation and the sin we commit knowingly as well as unintentionally. He suggests that through God’s grace, we can have victory over sin by continually spending time with Jesus until in our hearts, it becomes natural for us to…
Text: Psalm 30:4-12Psalm 30 is an expression of praise to God despite the psalmist experiencing difficult moments of separation. His joy comes in the future and the expectation of God’s promises being fulfilled. We don’t always know the present and the “hows” or “whys” of what is happening in our lives, but with an eye…
Text: Psalm 2Psalm 2 is a psalm of might and was used in Old Testament times for coronating new kings. In the early Church, it was used as a reminder and a warning against merging with the ways and the sins of the world. It is also an invitation to seek the Lord, and to…
