This sermon explores Psalm 13 as a profound expression of the paradox inherent in the Christian life, where human anguish coexists with divine truth. The text moves through three distinct stages, beginning with the desperate question of "how long" God will hide His face, shifting to a plea for spiritual illumination, and culminating in a declaration of trust in God's steadfast love. By referencing...

The Holiest of All - Lesson 58 - Do Not Grow Weary - Hebrews 12:2-4. Luther says, "When I think of what Christ suffered, I am ashamed to call anything that I have endured, suffering for His sake." He carried His heavy cross, but we only carry a sliver or two of it; He drank his cup to the dregs, and we only sip a drop or two at the very most. "Consider Him." Consider how He suffered far more than...

This whole episode becomes a case-study in conflict AND what often results from conflict i.e., discouragement. It's the loss of courage (dis-courage) and it can sap a person of energy, vitality, motivation and joy. It's one symptom of what Augustin and later, Martin Luther called "incurvatus in se" -- we curve IN on ourselves - like an ingrown soul. We can ALL relate to it. There's a good possibil...

Psalm 34 is David's acrostic praise for the Lord's deliverance from fear, trouble, inviting the afflicted to taste and see that the Lord is good, for He is near to the brokenhearted, hears the cries of the righteous, and redeems all who take refuge in Him.

This sermon explores Psalm 46 as a divine invitation for believers to retreat to God as their ultimate sanctuary, contrasting the impermanence of human-made forts with the eternal security found in Christ. The message presents three distinct encouragements derived from the psalm's structure: God is an unassailable means of security who provides present help in trouble, an unbounded source of grace...

This sermon explores the doctrine of sola fide, or faith alone, as the essential means by which sinners are justified before God. It distinguishes true saving faith from mere intellectual assent or cultural Christianity by outlining three necessary elements: knowledge of the gospel, agreement with its truth, and personal trust in Christ. The message emphasizes that faith is a gift of God's grace,...

How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?

On October 7, 2023, 1,200 people were killed, 251 were taken hostage, and within a day a multi-billion-dollar worldwide propaganda campaign was already accusing the victims of genocide. Where does that kind of hatred come from? Dr. Phil Stringer says it is more than human. In this message on the third anniversary of October 7th, Dr. Stringer at Quentin Road Baptist Church traces the hatred of the...

This sermon explores the first petition of the Lord's Prayer, "Hallowed be your name," arguing that it serves as the foundational lens through which all other requests must be viewed. Drawing on Martin Luther's teachings and Thomas Watson's exposition, the message defines God's name as His essential being and character, emphasizing that to hallow His name is to set it apart from common use to sacr...

Psalm 32 declares the blessedness of the one whose transgression is forgiven and whose sin is covered, as David contrasts the crushing misery of concealed guilt with the relief, instruction, and steadfast love that come when sin is confessed and the LORD is trusted.
