The Good News Kingdom: Discouragement, Grief, & Taxes 15.04.2024 39:43 ↓

Matthew did not write his Gospel to inform us how to escape our sin and hell, but he wrote to inform us of the new story to which we must now adopt with our lives. The coming of Jesus changes everything, including the story by which we determine our meaning and purpose. In today’s passage, we examine two requirements to follow Jesus in His story. The first one is familiar; the second one is odd. T...

The Good News Kingdom: Transfiguration 01.04.2024 42:19 ↓

As we start Matthew 17 we see Jesus lead his disciples up onto the mountain of Transfiguration. As he appears in glory with Moses and Elijah, we are made to ask: is this where his victory is achieved, or will it come somewhere else? In a similar way we too must ask, where is our victory achieved?

Jesus, the Firstfruits 31.03.2024 44:07 ↓

What does the future life of those who belong to Jesus look like? How can we be sure that we will undergo resurrection?

In Matthew 16:13-20 we come to one of the most controversial passages in all of church history! This passage is the famous passage that has divided the Catholic and Protestant church, all regarding the declaration of Peter that Jesus the Son of God and then Jesus’ response that he will build his church “on the rock.” In this sermon we examine not only WHAT was said, but WHERE it was said. Understa...

The Good News Kingdom: The Leaven of the Pharisees 11.03.2024 45:45 ↓

In Matthew 16:5-12 Jesus warns his disciples, and us, about what we should be perceptive and on guard against! His warning may shock and alarm us though. He warns against the one thing that will keep us far from the Kingdom, even though we often think we are close. If we understand this warning, we realize that deep within each of us is a bent towards self-salvation, and only in the good news of g...
