Heritage Sermons

2 Timothy 2:1-7 | Gospel Advance | Brad Baugham In this sermon we will from the Word of God on how the Gospel advances and the people he appoints for the task.

Acts 21:17-20 | Going Global | Trent Hunter What is the deepest and most durable motive for global missions? That’s the question we want to answer from Scripture through this sermon. We’ll do this by taking a close-up look at a significant moment in the book of Acts. In Acts 21:17–21, the Apostle Paul returns to Jerusalem from his third and final missionary journey. There he recounts one by one th...

Acts 13:1-3, 14:19-28 | Going Global | Trent Hunter What is a missionary? Isn’t everyone a missionary? How are missionaries made? Who sends missionaries? With this sermon we continue our short series, Going Global: Following Jesus to the End of the Earth. We will be in Acts 13–14 where we will get some answers to these questions.

Acts 4:1-31 | Going Global | Trent Hunter In this sermon we are confronted with the simplicity and the potency of the gospel message. Under the pressure of the first run of persecution, Peter preaches the gospel: “there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name …” (4:12).

Acts 1:1-11 | Going Global | Trent Hunter With this sermon we’ll begin with Acts 1:1–11, the table of contents for the book of Acts and the church’s work until Christ comes.

Genesis 10-11 | The Blessing | Trent Hunter Listen in to hear about man's attempt to glorify their own names and God's gracious blessing of humbling them.

Genesis 6:9-9:28 | The Blessing | Trent Hunter Most people are able to tell the story of Noah. But how many of us know how to use the story of Noah? The account of God’s judgment and salvation in Noah’s day spans three chapters. Through this sermon we’ll walk our way through the account and consider how this cataclysmic event both warns us and comforts us.

Genesis 4:1-6:8 | The Blessing | Trent Hunter Listen in to hear about the beginning of humanity's exile and God's plan for them. He has not given up on his creation.

What’s wrong with people? We ask that about other people, and on our honest days we ask it about ourselves. What exactly is wrong with people? In fact, what is wrong with the world, and is there a unifying explanation for everything that has gone so wrong, inside of us and outside of us? Listen in to hear the answer from Genesis 3.

Genesis 2:4-25 | The Blessing | Trent Hunter Listen in to hear about a brief glimpse into a perfect world. All the conscience knows is innocence and all work is enjoyable. We know this is short lived, but it will inform us of how we were designed to live. 

Genesis 1:1-2:3 | The Blessing | Trent Hunter Listen in as we explore God's purpose for creating the vast expanse that we live under.

Genesis 1:1 | The Blessing | Trent Hunter Listen in as we start at the beginning. The beginning of Creation and the beginning of God's plan to bless the world through salvation. It all starts with a God who came before all things.

Isaiah 56-66 | Isaiah: A Vision of Two Cities | Trent Hunter With this sermon we close up our five-part series through the book of Isaiah. Here, the city that began in spiritual shambles is radiant, beautiful, and redeemed. They even get a new name, “you shall be called Sought Out, A City Not Forsaken” (Isa. 62:21). This is what the work of the suffering servant has made possible, a renewed people...

Isaiah 40-55 | Isaiah: A Vision of Two Cities | Trent Hunter We have one deep problem with far reaching consequences: sin. We're also helpless and hopeless to address this problem. If Isaiah's prophecy has taught us anything so far in our series it is this. But God's promises of great hope are in curious proportion to the escalating insanity of our sin revealed on the pages of Scripture. How will...

Isaiah 28-39 | Isaiah: A Vision of Two Cities | Trent Hunter In our last sermon from Isaiah we ended with a vision of a multi-national worshiping community (Isa. 19:19–25). For God’s people, threatened all around by imposing and wicked nations, this was a nice thought, but was it possible? Chapters 28–39 give us an answer: yes, because God is the God of promise-keeping power. How God will bring th...

Isaiah 13-27 | Isaiah: A Vision of Two Cities| Trent Hunter With this sermon we continue in our five-part series through the book of Isaiah, A Vision of Two Cities. Chapters 13–27 are powerful, uncomfortably so. From start to finish, we read of judgment after judgment. This is the kind of section that makes our head spin. But when we consider the original readers and Isaiah’s purpose, then we may...

Isaiah 1-12 | Isaiah: A Vision of Two Cities | Trent Hunter With this sermon we begin a new five-part series through the book of Isaiah, A Vision of Two Cities. The Book of Isaiah includes a number of familiar lines. For example, it was Isaiah who said of Christ, “they will call His name Immanuel,” and that the Messiah would be “crushed for our iniquities.” But who was Isaiah and what was the whol...

Matthew 13:34 | Our Heritage | Trent Hunter Every human being is a treasure hunter, longing for something truly satisfying and truly lasting. Where can it be found? We’re the people who know. We’ve found treasure in Jesus Christ and the unsearchable riches of His gospel. As those filled with the fullness of God, we long to see people find what we have found. We long to see people truly find and tr...

Ephesians 3:8-10 | Our Heritage | Trent Hunter What is the church’s mission? Is it to preach the gospel among the nations? Is it to transform our communities through social good? Is it to alleviate suffering? Is it to glorify God? What is it? How we relate these things will depend on how we define “mission,” a term not explicitly found in Scripture. So, after some biblical spadework to define term...

Revelation 21:5-7 | Our Heritage | Trent Hunter In Acts 2:44, we read that, “all who believed were together and had all things in common.” The church’s faith was the foundation of her life. This Sunday we begin a three-part series reflecting on the question of the church’s identity, her mission, and her vision. This sermon is titled, “Our Gospel Identity,” answering the question, who are we?

Trent Hunter | Building A Healthy Church | 1 Timothy 6:17-21 Listen in to hear our conclusion as we meditate on the ending of 1 Timothy and reflect on building healthy churches.

1 Timothy 6:17-21 | Building a Healthy Church | Trent Hunter Listen in to hear our conclusion as we meditate on the ending of 1 Timothy and reflect on building healthy churches.

Psalm 96 | Sing! | Trent Hunter Psalm 95 says to the congregation, “Come, let us sing!,” and Psalm 96 speaks to a different audience, “Sing, all the earth!” The church’s singing is proof that God really does save, that He really is the one true and living God and that He really will come to make all things right.

Psalm 95 | Sing! | Abe Stratton

1 Timothy 6:11-16 | Building a Healthy Church | Trent Hunter When Paul opened his letter, he charged Timothy to “remain at Ephesus” (1:3). Apparently there were reasons Paul suspected that Timothy might want to jump. But there are better reasons to stay. In this passage, nearing the close of his letter, Paul turns to a final charge. In this charge, Paul will deliver not only what Timothy needs to...
