Security. Is that a word that comes to mind when you consider the love of God? If not, it should. Last Sunday, we considered that in Christ, the love God has for you is safe, secure, and will never cease. No matter our wanderings, if we are His, He is faithful and always will lead us back to Himself. Praise be to God! This week we will continue our sermon series in Hebrews by exploring the topic o...

Last Sunday we considered that Jesus is our King-Priest who rules and reigns in power, authority, and justice, while he is simultaneously our compassionate advocate who empathizes with our weakness. All kings and rulers will fail us. All priests and confidants will disappoint us. But, Jesus never will. Thanks be to God!  This week we will continue our sermon series in Hebrews by exploring the topi...

Last Sunday, we learned that true rest does not come through sleep, vacations, or other outlets, but rather a deep, soul-satisfying, purpose giving, joy-filled Sabbath rest. May we trust in the work of the Spirit to unify us to our Lord of the Sabbath! This week we will continue our sermon series in Hebrews by exploring the topic of Greater than: Melchizedek, Priest + King Scripture: Hebrews 4:14-...

Over the summer, we will be looking at the book of Hebrews. This past week, we considered how marvelous a truth that we have each been made in the image of God, unlike anything else in the cosmos. And, despite our cosmic rebellion against our Creator, His cosmic redemption has rescued those who trust in the work of Jesus. This week's sermon is titled Greater Than: All Other Rest Scripture Reading:...

Over the summer, we will be looking at the book of Hebrews. The entire book proclaims the sufficiency of the work of Christ and the supremacy of Christ over all things. May we find great joy and hope as we consider the glory of Jesus!

In the final week of our series, Paul gives us his summarizing, yet challenging, thoughts on what joy looks like in the life of the Christian. In society and culture of excess, what does contentment look like? In a time of great unrest and uncertainty, what does contentment look like? When there are legitimate realities that must change in our lives and society, what does contentment look like? Th...

This week we continue our brief series called “It Is Finished”, leading us toward Easter. After having looked at the life of Christ last week, this week we turn to his death.

This week we began a brief series called “It Is Finished”, leading us toward Easter. In this three part series we will consider the necessity of the full work of Jesus in his (1) Life, (2) Death, (3) and Resurrection. For the Gospel to be Good News, we need to understand all three. Join us as we begin shifting toward the Easter Season! This week, we look at Jesus' life.

In our final look at Lamentations, we consider more deeply the realities of revival? Are we on the verge of a revival? We don't know. However, can the church live in ways at reflect revival? Yes. Pastor Justin considers what revival is, what it looks like, and how we can be prepared for it.

The beginnings of revival are always marked by self-examination, confession, and repentance. In week 4 of our series in Lamentations, Pastor Justin unpacks what it means to rightly self-exam, while also trusting God for renewal and revival.

The ability for pain and praise to be simultaneously present in our lives is one of the unique realities of the Christian faith. The poet of Lamentations 3 puts this truth on full display. Whatever tragedy might befall us, whatever storms may come, whatever suffering awaits us, may our refrain in all circumstances be, “The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end;...

In this second week of our series in Lamentations, we look at the deception that comes when we allow idols or functional gods to sit on the thrones of our heart. However, God in his love for us, will tear down those idols for our ultimate good. Listen to see why that is good news!

This Sunday, for Lent, we begin a new series looking at the challenging book of Lamentations. The Lenten season is a solemn season of preparation in which we embrace the longing that precedes the work of Jesus on the cross. In this first sermon, Pastor Justin gives context for the book and for our need for lament.
