For the next 8 weeks, we will be covering some of the more peculiar stories in Scripture, and we are uploading these in place of our normal Sunday recordings. While the discussion might be a little different, it is still the same content and principles being taught at our Sunday worship services. In the first episode of our Stranger Stories series we are looking at Judges 17:1-13. Connect with Res...

This week Mason taught on the remaining portion of Malachi (3:13-4:6) and the contrasts the author draws on the faithful God-fearers and arrogant and wicked complainers.

The Israelites asked God some pretty ignorant questions, but we find that there were actually things going on in the Israelite community that needed to come to an end if they wanted to truly honor the Lord.

We read in Malachi that whenever someone offers God their scrappy sacrifices, he is pretty displeased. In a similar way today, God doesn't want us to be scrappy with our faith, but he wants our full obedience and pure hearts.

Jake teaches us how sin has distorted the picture of work God had intended for us. Not all of us love our careers, but God designed us to be a working people and to worship God with our work.

Rather than a sermon this week, we invited four of our church family members to participate in a panel in which they shared a bit about how they follow God in their work and effectively integrate their faith as they go about their distinct rhythms of work.

The third office of Christ is king. On Sunday, Jake taught us what it means for Christ to be a king, and what it means for us to dethrone ourselves everyday. In a world that often says, "We're the king" or "We're the queen," we must seek to enthrone Jesus and humble ourselves before him.

In this sermon, Jake teaches on what it means for Christ to be a priest in the way he sacrificed himself for us and he intercedes on our behalf. We can intercede, or pray for others, too, asking God to meet the needs of others.

On March 24th, we had Vision Night. With more than 50 members and supporters of Resilient Church, we had the opportunity to celebrate how God has moved in the last seven months as a church plant, and we looked ahead to the importance of further investment in God's ministry here in Vermillion. The first 15 minutes consists of a panel of four of our members sharing their story and their involvem...

Jake starts off the new series "The Offices" talking about three key figures that were often anointed with oil: prophets, priests and kings. Messiah, or Christ, literally means "the anointed one." In other words, Christ isn't Jesus' last name! It is actually a title given to Jesus because he is the true anointed one, who fulfills all three roles: prophet, priest, and ki...

Jake concludes our "Love Ain't Easy" series by teaching from Deuteronomy in which we find someone who is often the hardest person to love: the Lord God himself.

This week, Jake taught on the importance of loving your friends. True friends are willing to die for one another. In other words, if you want to love your friends well, be prepared to sacrifice yourself — your time, money, resources, etc. — for them!

This week, Jake teaches about the importance of loving our enemies, and how it even is a way by which we love ourselves. While the world tells us to hate our enemies, Jesus tells us to love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us (Matt. 5).  Connect with Resilient Church https://linktr.ee/resilientchurch Instagram // https://www.instagram.com/iamresilient.church Facebook // https://ww...

The final, and arguably most important, thing for us to do after we have descended "God's mountain" is to proclaim what we have seen. The first part of making disciples is going and proclaiming the Gospel!

The fourth sermon in our "Ascend" series in which we learn about climbing up God's mountain and descending God's mountain. The key to descending God's mountain is to be persistent - even though the descent is hard, and we might be leaving a spiritually high moment, we need to persist and testify to others of the glory and goodness of God.
