Anxiety disorders are the most common mental illness in the United States, yet our Savior is faithful and good to give us help and instruction in this area. He teaches us that our life is about so much more that what we eat or what we wear. Our life and our body are for the glory of God, so we must not make what are ultimately temporal things our focus. He has given us physical life, emotional lif...

In this sermon from 1 Corinthians 11:17-22, Pastor Jon English explains Paul’s rebuke of the divisions and partiality in the body, and the sin of despising the church of God which springs from uncharitableness in our hearts.

False teachers have always been amongst the true sheep of God. They want to exploit and deceive God’s children. It is important for Christians to know what characterizes false teachers in order to flee. Preacher: Pastor Jordan Nelson Scripture Text: 2 Peter 2:1-3

In this sermon from 1 Corinthians 11:4-16, Pastor Jon English attempts to explain why the head coverings are in the text, why they matter, and how they apply to us today.

Jesus often addressed the issue of money and stewardship – because the love of money is the root of all sorts of evil (1 Tim 6:10). In fact, Jesus spoke more about money than any other single figure in Scripture. As we find in this text, there were people in His day fighting over an inheritance just like they do today, and while Christ did not put himself in the place of arbitrating such arguments...

In Luke 12:1-12, we have Jesus continuing to prepare His disciples to live an unafraid and unashamed gospel witnesses. What He gives them in these 12 verses are six lessons on how to be prepared to stand firm in the faith. This second sermon explores the latter three of these lessons. Preacher: Dr. Shawn Merithew

We saw at the end of chapter 11 that the religious leaders were now watching Jesus' every move, looking for a way to discredit Him in the people's eyes and to find some excuse to kill Him and remove His influence over the masses. Jesus and His men were all under pressure, but He knew His mens needed to continue their training, to be ready to lead the church, so He taught them six lessons about how...

In this sermon from 1 Corinthians 11:2-3, Pastor Jon English highlights Paul’s arguments related to authority and submission, specifically noting how God is the head of Christ, Christ the head of man, and man the head of woman.

In this sermon from 1 Corinthians 10:23-11:1, Pastor Jon English explains Paul’s final summary of the doctrine of Christian liberty.

What if you heard Jesus say to you, “Your soul is like an unmarked grave”? When we think of the gravest dangers facing the church, it's not false religions, nor is it a hateful culture, nor is it even heretics in the church. Those are all very serious, but the gravest danger to the church is theologically informed, religiously active, morally conservative people whose hearts are devoid of Christ....

As the people of God continue to worship Christ and proclaim His gospel in this sinful world, it is critical that we be clear about the Source of Our Identity and the Right Practice of our Faith. In this Mother's Day sermon, we explore Paul's prayer for the church at Ephesus and see that every family on earth derives its identity from the Father, and therefore if we would thrive as His family, we...

In this sermon from 1 Corinthians 10:14-22, Pastor Jon English explains Paul’s arguments against idolatry and involvement with the dark spiritual forces.

We are called to guard the good deposit (i.e. the gospel, Jesus, sound words) that has been entrusted to believers. In this sermon, Pastor Jordan Nelson walks through Paul’s last words in order to help understand how to guard the good deposit. Scripture Text: 2 Timothy 1:13-14

In this sermon from 1 Corinthians 10:13, Pastor Jon English examines five Truths that God gives us to battle temptation, as well as five lies that Satan uses to tempt.

How is your spiritual vision? Do you see yourself clearly? Do you bring the lense of Scripture to bear regularly upon your own soul? Do you have unclouded sight of the things of God and the Person of Christ? In these four verses, we are brought again to see that Jesus is the Light of the World, and only in Him and through Him are Christians able to be people of the light and not of the darkness. P...

In Luke 11:29-32 we see the crowd demanding a sign from Jesus, but He refuses, promising only to give them the sign of Jonah: just as Jonah was three days in the belly of the whale before preaching in Ninevah, Jesus would be three days in the belly of the earth and then rise from the grave. It was not the sign they expected and demanded, but it was a sign that would be infinitely more wonderful, p...

In this sermon from 1 Corinthians 10:11-12, Pastor Jon English examines Paul’s use of the Old Testament for our instruction, and the exhortation to remain watchful at all times, lest we fall.

The exorcism of a demon (Luke 11:14) had sparked the exchange in the previous passage, so Jesus returns to the subject of exorcism and uses it as a parable to warn us about a prevalent deception. And His warning is simple: Do not confuse the absence of evil with saving faith. If you do, you are worse off than before. We are going to explore that warning as well as the blessing He gives that is an...

On this occasion, Jesus heals yet another demoniac, restoring the man's ability to speak. By this point in his ministry, many are beginning to wonder out loud if Jesus is indeed the Messiah. The religious leaders, infuriated by such conjecture, respond by spreading a vicious lie – they accuse Jesus of being in league with Satan. Jesus responds by not only revealing the inconsistency and hypocrisy...

Pastoral Intern Robert Gardner continues a study of Paul's letter to the Philippians by looking to Paul's example of rejoicing in the face of persecution. Sermon Text: Philippians 1:12-18a 

When you take the time to really ponder the weight of what Jesus is saying here in this text, you realize that this is one of the most incredible promises of God that you will find in all of Scripture. With these words, the Sovereign God of heaven and earth is inviting us to pursue Him in prayer. Whatever our needs, He is our compassionate Father, and He wants us to depend upon him in faith. But t...
