MissionWay Church Sunday Sermons

What did Jesus really intend to teach about tribulation and the last days? In Matthew 24:3–14, Jesus prepares His disciples not with speculation, but with sober encouragement for what lies ahead. This sermon calls us to stay grounded in truth, steady in peace, and faithful to endure, remembering that being ready to endure matters more than perfectly deciphering prophecy. Join us as we listen to Je...

In the opening message of this series, Jesus’ teaching on the last days begins not with speculation, but with a sobering lament over Jerusalem’s unwillingness to repent. From Matthew 23:37–24:2, we see the tender mercy of Christ, the certainty of judgment for persistent unbelief, and His declaration that the Temple’s destruction is coming. This passage calls us to look past religious appearances,...

As we look ahead to 2026, this sermon centers on Paul’s prayer in Ephesians 3:14–21—a prayer not mainly for changed circumstances, but for changed hearts. Together, we are called to pray for deep spiritual strength, rootedness in the Gospel, and a growing comprehension of the love of Christ by the power of the Spirit. This is a pastoral prayer for MissionWay Church as we ask God for deeper roots,...

On Christmas Eve (Eve), we proclaim the simple but life-changing good news announced by the angels: “Unto you is born a Savior, Christ, the Lord.” In the midst of both joy and grief, this message reminds us that Jesus was born not just for shepherds long ago, but for you today. Will you behold and believe the Savior who has come?

In the final message of our "God With Us" series, we turn to Philippians 2:9–11 and behold the exalted Christ—humble Savior now crowned as Lord of all. This passage confronts us with an inescapable truth: one day every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. This sermon is both a gospel plea and a pastoral warning, calling believers and unbelievers alike to respond w...

Jesus didn’t just become a man—He willingly obeyed the Father, even to the point of death on a cross. From the manger to Calvary, we see the incredible cost of God’s love for sinners and the humility that should shape our response. As we examine Philippians 2:8, let us reflect on the surpassing worth of knowing Christ, and consider what it truly means to follow Him in humble obedience.

In Week 2 of God With Us, we look at Philippians 2:7–8 and the stunning truth that Jesus became fully human and took the form of a servant. We’ll explore what it means that the eternal Son of God experienced real human weakness, humility, and obedience—yet without sin—so that He could save and sympathize with us. Join us as we consider the wonder of the incarnation and how Christ’s humility shapes...

This Sunday, we kick off our Advent series “God with Us” by focusing on the truth of Jesus as fully God (Philippians 2:6). Amid the busyness, celebrations, and struggles of the season, it’s easy to lose sight of the Giver behind the gifts. We’ll explore the profound reality of the Incarnation—how Christ, though fully God, willingly humbled Himself to become man—and consider how this truth calls us...

In this final week of our “Jesus and the Pharisees” series, Jesus delivers His seventh woe, exposing the Pharisees for repeating the very sins of their fathers while imagining themselves righteous. In Matthew 23:29–36, He warns them—and us—of the real danger of judgment when we condemn the past yet remain blind to our own sin. This passage calls us to mourn inherited sin, take responsibility for o...

In this sermon, we continue Jesus’ sobering confrontation with the scribes and Pharisees in Matthew 23:23–28, exposing the danger of outward religion without inward transformation. Jesus rebukes leaders who meticulously obey minor laws while ignoring justice, mercy, and faithfulness—revealing hearts that are polished on the outside but spiritually decayed within. By examining Old and New Testament...

In Matthew 23:13-22, Jesus pronounces a series of woes on the scribes and Pharisees, exposing the dangers of spiritual hypocrisy. He condemns those who shut the doors of heaven, making salvation inaccessible, those who mislead others into false discipleship, and those whose words and oaths cannot be trusted. The Pharisees’ outward religiosity masked hearts far from God, demonstrating the emptiness...

In Matthew 23:1–12, Jesus warns His disciples and the crowds about the hypocrisy of the Pharisees, calling attention to leaders who preach rightly but fail to practice what they teach, burden others, and seek status over service. This sermon challenges us to examine our own hearts for signs of hypocrisy and points us to the remedy Jesus offers: humble, sacrificial service. By following His example...

This sermon concludes our With the Gospel series by looking at what it means to encourage the faithful from Hebrews 10:19–25. The Gospel not only gives us confidence to draw near to God, but also calls us to hold fast to hope and stir one another up to love and good works. This passage calls us to move beyond simply attending church and embrace our role in building up the body of Christ.

1 Thessalonians 5:14 explores what it truly means to “strengthen the weak” in the body of Christ, reminding us that weakness is not a flaw to hide but a reality we all share apart from Christ. Rather than ignoring or abandoning those who struggle, we are called to patiently admonish, encourage, and help one another in love, just as Christ has done for us. A faithful church is not built by the stro...

1 Corinthians 9:19–27 challenges us to see evangelism not as a task for a few but as the ordinary call of every believer. Paul’s words reveal a heart that burned for the salvation of others and a life disciplined for the sake of the Gospel. We’re reminded that reaching the lost means humbly serving others, giving up personal freedoms to break down barriers, and living with Gospel urgency—because h...

In Ephesians 4:11-16, Paul reminds us that the church is called to “equip one another.” God has given every believer unique gifts to build up His body into unity and maturity, so that we may stand firm in truth, speak in love, and see each part working properly. This is not just the work of pastors, but the call of every follower of Christ—because a healthy church is one where every disciple is eq...

1 Corinthians 10:16–17 reminds us that communion is not a mere ritual but a sacred fellowship with Christ and His church. At the Lord’s Table, believers participate in the blood and body of Christ, finding grace, satisfaction, and unity with one another. It is also a refuge from idolatry, calling us to turn away from the world’s false promises and rest in Christ alone. Ultimately, communion points...

Matthew 22:41–46 highlights Jesus’ identity as both the Son of David and the Lord of all, fully human and fully divine. By pointing to Psalm 110, Jesus silences the Pharisees and reveals His person, position, and power—showing He reigns at the Father’s right hand, interceding for His people, preparing their eternal home, and ruling until every enemy is under His feet. In a world full of uncertaint...

In Matthew 22:34-40, Jesus summarizes the Law and Prophets by teaching that the greatest command is to love God and the second is to love others. It challenges listeners to examine the motivations behind their obedience—whether out of love, duty, fear, or pride—and highlights that true faith flows from a heart wholly devoted to God. Loving God supremely shapes our ability to love others rightly, a...

Matthew 22:23–33 highlights the Christian’s sure hope in the resurrection of the dead. Jesus silences the Sadducees by affirming that Scripture and the power of God guarantee eternal life, showing that earthly institutions like marriage were always temporary shadows pointing to something greater. The resurrection is the ultimate realization of our faith, the anchor of Christian hope, and the certa...

In Matthew 22:15-22, Jesus teaches that just as Caesar is entitled to what bears his image, we owe our lives fully to God, the ultimate authority. While He affirms the government’s right to collect taxes, His main point is that everything that bears God’s image—our lives, hearts, and resources—belongs to Him. The Pharisees admired His wisdom but refused to submit, warning us not to make the same m...

The parable of the wedding feast illustrates that while everyone is invited to God’s Kingdom, not all accept the invitation or respond rightly. Some reject it out of indifference, distraction, or hostility, while others try to rely on their own righteousness rather than receiving Christ’s. True entrance into the Kingdom comes only through repentance and trusting in the righteousness freely given b...

In Matthew 21:33-46, Jesus tells the Parable of the Tenants, pronouncing judgment on Israel’s leaders for rejecting God’s prophets and ultimately His Son. Drawing from Isaiah 5 and Psalm 118, He reveals Himself as the Cornerstone—crushing those who reject Him and securing those who trust in Him. The kingdom is taken from the unfruitful and given to a people producing its fruit, showing that salvat...

When religion refuses to repent, it becomes a hollow pursuit of outward righteousness—more concerned with keeping appearances than walking in truth. Jesus exposed the hearts of the chief priests and elders, showing they were uninterested in truth, feared man more than God, and used religion to avoid repentance. Like the second son in the parable, they said the right things but failed to do the Fat...

God’s Word speaks clearly to our fears: “Fear not, for I am with you” (Isaiah 41:10) and “Do not be anxious about anything” (Philippians 4:6). In Proverbs 3:5-6, we are called to trust in the Lord with all our hearts, leaning not on our own understanding but acknowledging Him in all our ways. These truths remind us that peace is found not in avoiding hardship, but in drawing near to the God who su...
