John 8:12. In a culture filled with people who profess to be followers of Jesus but the conduct of their lives demonstrates something entirely different, it is of the utmost importance to carefully consider if you are a true follower of Jesus. In this sermon, Pastor Richard explains what it means to be a true follower of Jesus. 

1 Timothy 1:11-17. In the midst of ministry growth, activity, and change, it is far to easy for a church to forget the significance and centrality of the Gospel in the life and mission of the church. In this message, Pastor Richard interrupted the series in John's Gospel to remind the Church in general and Redeemer in particular that as the Church of Jesus Christ we have been entrusted with t...

John 7:37-52. The Gospel is one of those subjects that solicits a response from those who hear. Regretfully, not everyone responds in the appropriate way. In this sermon, Greg Covington surveys some of the common responses that Jesus encountered while preaching the Good News of the Kingdom of God. 

John 7:1-36. Throughout his entire life, the Lord Jesus Christ was captivated by the will of God. Everything that Jesus said, did, and even thought was perfectly identical and harmonious with God's will. One of the major reasons why the people of Jesus day failed to believe in him was because they were only operating by their own will. In this message, Pastor Richard encourages all of Christ&...

John 6:41-47. One of the great comforts of the Christian faith is that a Christian's eternal salvation is secured in the sovereignty of God. Before faith ever happens to the Christian's last breath God's meticulous hand was sovereignly guiding the Christian to faith and to a final victory that will ultimately climax in resurrection. In this message Pastor Richard explains why God&ap...

John 6:22-40. In Jesus day, many people were seeking Him because they believed He could provide anything they needed. The problem is they followed him just to receive from His hand. In doing so, they failed to truly have Jesus. In this message, Pastor Richard explains that Jesus is the prize of the Christian. Those who seek Jesus must seek Him for Him and not for what He can give. Jesus is the gif...

John 5:31-47. According to Jesus, the ultimate reason why Christianity is true is that God has declared it to be true. The field of Christian apologetics has formulated numerous arguments and evidences for Christianity, but the foundation of true faith is solely the testimony of God. In this message, Billy Como explains how God has testified to the truth of Christianity and why people do not belie...

John 5:18-30. The deity of Christ is one of the great truths of Christianity that people find so hard to believe. Yet, it is this great truth that gives Jesus the authority judge and to forgive and the power to save sinners from death and condemnation. In this message Pastor Richard explains Jesus own claims to deity and what that reality means for every person.

John 5:1-18. Legalism is a subtle yet destructive enemy of the Gospel. Unwittingly, many Christians fall into legalistic ways of evaluating spiritual devotion and Kingdom progress. Tragically, legalism destroys the love, grace, and compassion that characterizes the Gospel. In this sermon, Pastor Richard explains why legalism is so harmful and how Jesus confronted legalism.

John 4:43-54. What is saving faith? This is a question that everyone should consider because by it hangs eternal ife and eternal death. Tragically, many people live their lives claiming to believe in Christ but in all reality, their faith is not true faith. In this message Pastor Richard explains what true faith is and what it is not. All who listen will be challenged to seriously consider the con...

John 4:1-42.

John 3:22-36. How do you measure success? People influenced by the world will measure success by career, family, education, possessions, happiness, accomplishments, and talents. However, God measures success in an entirely different category. If anyone wants to be a true success, they will diligently apply themselves to God's category. In this message, Pastor Richard explains what God's...

John 3:16. God is the great initiator of redemption. Yet, for centuries, thoughtful people have been baffled about why God would initiate redemption. He didn't owe sinners redemption, nevertheless, He gave His son Jesus as a sacrifice to save those who are lost. In this message, Pastor Richard explains how God's love drove the plan of redemption to completion and how people today can ete...

John 3:1-21. In this message Pastor Richard explains why the reality of being born again is so vital to the Christian life. Like many Christians today, Nicodemus didn't understand that being born again is the foundation of believing and enjoying the redeeming work of God through Jesus Christ. A Christian's new birth is not something that they ever grow out of, but rather, it is a radical...

John 2:13-25. The foundation of all false worship is the idea that people can determine the proper way to worship God. The Jewish leaders of Jesus day redefined worship and in doing so introduced confusion and hindrances to those who sought to worship God. Today, many Christians have introduced their own kind of obstacles and confusion to worship. This message reminds us that Jesus cares how God i...

John 2:1-11

John 1:35-51. What does it mean to follow Jesus? In this message Pastor Richard explains how following Jesus is the same thing as being a Christian.

John 1:19-34. Who was John the Baptist? This question troubled the religious leaders in ancient Israel. While many people entertained different opinions of who this bizarre and austere man truly was, John the Baptist was only concerned with making Jesus Christ known. In this message, Pastor Richard challenges Christians to be like John, true witnesses to Christ.

John 1:16-18. In this message pastor Richard explains how the Lord Jesus gives the fullness of His grace to all who receive Him. The grace that believers experience in Jesus Christ is immeasurable, unending, and unceasing. Without the grace of Jesus, people would live in the darkness of not knowing the true character and nature of the invisible God. With the grace of Christ, Christians receive the...
