New King Church

The King Jesus had performed miracles, but He had not as of yet shown His glory and His power - not until the day of His Transfiguration. The greatest Apostles (Peter, James, and John) would look back at the moment and recount how they had seen His glory. Come and behold Him in His glory! 

What kind of path is our King Jesus calling us to take? We're going to see in this week's passage that He's calling us to take a path like the one He took - a path that will require us to deny ourselves and to give our lives away. Join us to learn about the path of the Kingdom citizen.

A few weeks ago, Eric was talking to someone about his faith and he asked her where she was on her faith journey. She paused. "I have so many questions," she finally replied. "So many questions for God." That resonates with all of us -- those beginning the journey and those far along the path with God. But the most important question ever asked is posed to us from the Lord Himself. And our answer...

In the end of Matthew 15, Jesus yet again feeds a multitude with a few loaves and small fish. Soon after that, near the beginning of chapter 16, the disciples are worrying about not having bread to eat even though they are with Jesus. How disappointing to see their small faith! But between the miracle of feeding the second multitude and the sputtering faith of the disciples, something occurred tha...

When we need God to come through for us or we are in serious trouble, how do we pray for breakthrough? Join us as we dive back into Matthew 15 to learn how one unlikely woman received a miracle from Jesus. From this story, we will learn the secret to praying for breakthrough.

Fewer young people are identifying as Bible-believing followers of Jesus. Christians need to make some radical shifts in how we think about training up the next generation because what we've been doing isn't working. Some 70-80% of kids raised in Christian homes walk away from the faith by the end of their freshman year of college. Fortunately, we have a perfect example to learn from in our Heaven...

In Matthew 15, Jesus has another run-in with the Pharisees and this time he calls them out for their hypocrisy. Jesus rebukes them for talking a big talk, but not really loving God at all. How did they get to this place -- going through the motions of religion without a heart that burned for God? And how does the very same thing happen to us? We'll learn three big lessons from this passage that ca...

Just one look at the news and we begin to get that sinking feeling - fires, floods, the virus, wars and violence. We feel like we're in the middle of a storm, sinking into the cold waters of doubt. The interesting thing about Jesus is that He's often there, right in the eye of the storm. That's where he shows up and we see who He really is. Join us as we take a little walk with Peter right into th...

Have you found yourself in a desolate place or a dark time? Have you found yourself with not nearly enough means to meet the need? So did the disciples. Yet Christ showed His power to satisfy even in desolate places. 

This Sunday we see what happens when Jesus gets word that his cousin, John the Baptist, has been murdered. Instead of responding with rage or even giving up on sinful humanity, we see Jesus respond in a surprising way. The sinfulness of those around Jesus did not smother the flame of his love for sinners. Join us Sunday as we peer into the heart of the Savior and learn to love the way he loved. 

This next story in Matthew that we are studying is about how those most familiar with Jesus rejected Him as the Messiah. We are going to look at the dangers of familiarity and how that same thing can sometimes happen to us. 

From one perspective, the Christian life might look like sacrifice and from another it might look like gain. For example, take the Apostle Paul who was whipped, stoned, imprisoned and hunted the entire time he followed Jesus. He certainly made sacrifices. But from another perspective, Paul didn't "sacrifice" anything. From his perspective, his life looked like gain. Throughout Paul's journeys, he...

What is the Kingdom of Christ (Kingdom of Heaven) like? Jesus teaches us parables that begin to answer this question. The first thing He wants us to know about His Kingdom is that it's a mixed bag! The Lord is calling us to not take our eternal comfort from being in a church, but to instead seek fruitfulness by His Spirit and by faith. Join us to learn more.

We all love a good story, don't we? It seems that Jesus did as well. In Matthew 13, Jesus tells seven short stories or parables and after the first, the disciples ask Him, "Why do you speak in parables?" Jesus' reply indicates that stories are far older, stretching back across the centuries to the great prophet Isaiah. This Sunday we hear the surprising explanation of the purpose of the parables a...

This Sunday, we started a new series called The King's Parables. The Word of God has life-imparting power. Like a seed that contains within it all of the potential for generations of fruit, every time you hear the Word of God, it brings with it the power to change your life. However, just as a seed must go down into the earth, the Word must go down into our hearts in order to grow up into maturity...

This Sunday, we looked at the Old Testament characters of Saul and David to learn what caused Saul's downfall as king and what drew the Lord to David as his replacement. Come and learn how to be a man or woman who is after God's heart. 

Join us for a special guest preacher. Ben Whittinghill from Rivertown Church in Brattleboro will be joining us.

When asked for a sign, Jesus responded that "no sign will be given to you except the sign of the prophet Jonah." Surprisingly, the sign of Jonah is a complex sign that reaches across the ages and shows God's supreme control of governments to bring about His purposes. Join us as we continue our series in Matthew.

God's Kingdom has come, in the power of the Spirit, to despoil demons! To free prisoners from Satanic slavery! And yet, there are those who will oppose the liberating work of the Spirit and the power of Christ's Kingdom to such an extent, that they will forfeit all forgiveness and lose all room for repentance. Join us to hear about the great work of the Spirit and about the one sin that is unpardo...

Tensions mount between Jesus and the religious leaders of the day. The Pharisees come to the decision to destroy Jesus. But what brings them to this point of insanity? What was it that made these men so blind and what can we learn from their horrible error? Join us as we continue our study in Matthew.

What does Jesus have to say to those of us who feel weary? What can we do if we feel weighed down by the trials of this life or weighed down by guilt? Jesus offers us rest for our souls, but there is something we must do. Join us as we learn how to find rest for our weary souls. 

After a long hiatus, we return to Matthew's Gospel chapter 11! Immediately we find this question to Jesus from John the Baptist: 'Are you the one?' There is no question more important in our lives and for all eternity than this one. Listen to hear Jesus' response as He deals with doubt, discontentment and disbelief. 

This Sunday is Vision Sunday! We will zoom out and get a 30,000-foot view of where we are heading and what we should be focusing on as a church. God is doing some remarkable things in and through New King, and we believe there are big things in store for us in the days ahead. Come and learn about the ways God is leading and how you can get in on it. 

You have knowledge of the Gospel and of repentence, so why do you still feel weak and ineffective? There could be a few reasons! But what if it's because you have not received by faith the promise of power? Join us this Sunday as we discuss the mighty power of the Spirit at work! 

This weekend we were excited to celebrate the St. Albans church plant of Redeemer Church! In honor of that, we have a team-teaching with Pastor Ben and Pastor Michael Badger (soon to be pastor of Redeemer Church) on Jeremiah 1:1-12. This is what it's all about, seeing the kingdom advance through the multiplication of healthy, Christ-exalting churches.
