Using an example from the life of the Apostle Paul, Pastor Neil reminds us that, by seeking Godly wisdom during difficult times, along with our troubles comes the opportunity for hope and redemption.

In this sermon, Cory Townsend demonstrates that Old Testament Law was not intended to impart righteousness, but to "tutor" us, thereby exposing our inability to achieve righteousness in our own strength. He explains that, as we have a new life in Christ, we are under a new rule: to walk in the power of the Holy Spirit, as sons and daughters of God, seeking to do His will.

Reviewing Psalm 71, Pastor Neil speaks of the limitless goodness of God. He reminds us that we have good reason to trust in God's deliverance, especially based on His faithfulness in the past.

In the second sermon in his series, Victorious Christian Living, Pastor Neil explains that, as Christians, we can experience freedom from condemnation and victory over sin in our daily lives.

Pastor Neil begins his series - Victorious Christian Living - by discussing the importance of reading Romans, Chapter 8, with the proper perspective; and by illustrating the difference between positional and experiential truths.

Pastor Neil illustrates the contrast between man's attempt to live under the Law and the newness of life in the Spirit that is offered to the Christian through his union with Christ.

By means of reflection on the text, Pastor Neil asks the believer to remember who he really is in Jesus Christ: dead to sin and alive (a new creature) in the Lord Jesus Christ.

In his Easter message, Pastor Neil asks: since, as believers in Jesus Christ, sin no longer has power over our eternal destiny, why would we let it control our present experience? He reminds us that our victory in Jesus Christ has present implications for raised up living, right here, right now.

Pastor Neil illustrates that the abundance of grace poured out on us, and the gift of righteousness imputed to us through our Lord Jesus Christ, have both eternal and physical significance in our lives.

In a message of comfort Pastor Neil reminds us that God's love will prevail in our trials. In as much as, through the death of His Son, God reconciled the sinful world to Himself, so much more will those who trust in the Living Christ be saved from His wrath.

In this timely message, Cory Townsend reminds us that we are called to love all people, including our enemies, so that we may be properly aligned with the character of God.

Pastor Neil reminds us, through the story of Abraham, that God's promises are sure. They are not based on our merit but are ours by His grace, purely on the basis of faith.

Delving into the 4th chapter of Romans, Pastor Neil discusses Abraham's justification by faith and explores the errors inherent to a performance-based theology of salvation.

In a tribute to Valentine's Day, Pastor Neil mined the Song of Solomon for nuggets of wisdom concerning romantic relationships and intimacy - still relevant for us today.

Pastor Neil wraps up his messages on the third chapter of Romans by reminding us that salvation, although freely given, was "expensively purchased." He clearly explains that the benefit of Jesus' atoning sacrifice extends to the whole world. And, although it cost Him dearly, we can receive the matchless gift of salvation by grace, through faith in Jesus Christ.

In this message, Pastor Neil explains that Jesus Christ is the 'hilasterion', (Rom. 3.25) the fulfillment of the OT 'Mercy Seat'; the One in Whom God and man can finally meet.

In this message, Pastor Neil illuminates the divide between sinful man and Holy God. He explains that, although we are justly condemned for our sinfulness, we are freely offered the righteousness of God by faith in Jesus Christ.

In this message, Pastor Neil uses dramatic readings to illustrate the conflict being debated by Paul in Romans 3:1-8. He demonstrates that, although our sinfulness magnifies God's righteousness, we should not use this as an excuse to abuse the limitless nature of His grace and faithfulness.

Pastor Neil explores the legitimacy of dreams and visions as a way in which God can communicate with His people. He provides parameters for discerning the authenticity of such revelation and reminds us of the consequences of false prophecy.
