CrossLife Elder Andy Deboer preaches from Genesis 22.

In this sermon, Pastor Ricky highlights the justice of God’s judgment and the evidence of His grace in Genesis chapters 18-21.

All of the Grace that we have received is due to the fact that we have a God Who covenants with His creation. But what is a covenant, and why does it matter? We not only look at the Abrahamic Covenant but also the Edenic, Noahic, Mosaic, Davidic, and the New Covenant. Because our Holy God covenants, we have the full redemption from our sins.

We return to Genesis and begin an 8-week journey through scripture to see God’s sovereign work through his calling, covenanting, providing of and for the Patriarchs. From the beginning, God has always sought to create a people for His own possession. The Fall brought brokenness into the world, but God promised redemption. Here, in Genesis we see the beginning of His redemptive work that will ultim...

CrossLife elder Andy Deboer concludes our Psalms series by looking at some psalms of comfort. In this world, there are many troubles—and in the truth of these psalms, there is great comfort.

In this sermon, we focus our attention on Psalms of Lament. As Christians, we know the Biblical truth is that we will experience pain, suffering, and worry in this life. These psalms show us HOW to praise and pray to God through our sorrowful moments. There is a God who hears us.

In this sermon from Psalms, we focus our attention on psalms that focus on the enthronement on God and His great Kingship. Too often in our lives, there is the temptation to establish our own kingdoms and protect our own throne. These psalms refresh us with the truth that we are not God and were never meant to be. He alone is the King.

This sermon launches our brief series in Psalms, the ancient hymn book of Israel. In these psalms there is a richness of wisdom that directs us as to How we should live and honor the Lord, as well as the great reward of our God Who sees all that we are and do.

In this sermon, we understand Noah’s sin, grasp Ham’s sin, and hear Noah’s cursing of Canaan and blessing of Shem and Japheth. Where we see sin continuing, we also see God’s ultimate redemptive plan unfolding. Praise the Lord that salvation has always been near—that is the patience of a loving, kind Father.

The world and we continue today because of God’s covenant of mercy that He made with Noah. After God’s judgment, there is His promise of mercy. But we are also reminded in Scripture that there is an even greater judgment coming: a judgment of fire, not of water.

In this sermon, we cover the scope of the narrative that records the worldwide flood during Noah’s days and God’s salvation through the Ark. When the world was filled with sin, a holy God purged the world of sin with a flood. God will go to extreme measures to bring about the holiness He desires and requires.
