SIDERIS PODCAST

John 19-28 -- Let's look at "How to Prepare for a Revelation of Jesus?" by looking at the person of John the Baptist... aka John the Baptizer.

John 1:1-18 -- When John says that The Word who was God came to dwell with us, what does that actually mean? What spiritual backdrop is this Word entering into and supposedly solving? Why would this "Word" be so concerned with giving people the right to be children of God anyways? Join us in our consideration of these questions and more! "In him was life, and the life was the light of men. The lig...

John 1:1-18 -- This Sunday marks our third study in the Gospel of John, where we will explore John's overarching theme of Jesus, as the "true light" in the world. This will be a message not just for those who already believe Jesus brings light, but those who are desperately searching for some kind of light amidst the darkness that they are experiencing.

John 1:1-18 -- What does it mean that the Word was with God and the Word was God? The implications of this phrase and the opening 18 verses of John are so cosmetically important that we will take not one but three weeks to unpack as much as we can, humanly speaking.

John 1:1 -- Join us for this new sermon series in the Gospel according to John, one of Jesus closest friends and disciples. Together we will explore the following background questions. - Why is John often the first book that many recommend to new Christians or not-yet Christians to read through? - Why is John’s gospel so different than the other three? - How do the four gospels play or dance toget...

Pastor Ryan examines how exactly God changes us by way of communion with him. We've heard a lot about God changing our expectations over the past few Sundays, and now in our final sermon in this series, we will look at one final way to partner with God in his changing us.

No matter how you are feeling today or tomorrow, I pray that you make time and save energy to deeply consider the FACT of Christmas. God loves you so much that he sent Jesus the Son and the Christ to save you. Not only that, He is coming soon to wrap up this undeserved gift of forever freedom and forever life with Him.

John 11 | In line with our theme for Advent, "Changing Expectations", we look at the story of Lazarus' death and how Martha & Mary (all of whom the writer explicitly says Jesus loved) built a case towards Christ in his apparent 'lack' of urgency to save Lazarus from illness and ultimately death. They've been waiting for the promise of the Messiah, the Coming one, and now he's here - but, it seems,...

John 6 | When the crowds found out that Jesus wasn't going to lead a revolution against the Romans they were disappointed and left but the disciples remained. What was the difference and how can we have the kind of faith that can be ready for whatever God has in store?

What exactly was he expecting after the flood? Noah’s faithfulness and obedience to God endured 120 years of ridicule as he built a giant boat in the desert. It’s not hard to imagine that he expected things to be much different after God's punishment for the wickedness of the land. But did his expectation meet with reality?

As we lean into the season of the coming of Christ we look to the account of Hagar. How could we have anything in common with this obscure Egyptian slave girl of antiquity? How could she point ahead to the coming Christ?

1 Corinthians 16:12-24 - We conclude our beloved series in Paul's love letter to the church at Corinth. It was so challenging, so how can we call it a love letter?

1 Corinthians 16:1-11

1 Corinthians 15:50-58 || Paul concludes this climactic chapter of Corinthians with one of the most glorious promises of God through Christ: Victory Over Death. But how exactly can that be and how do we ensure that we're included?

1 Corinthians 15:35-50 || More than the months it took for our series to finally get to this passage in 1 Corinthians 15, you could say that it took 15 years in the making for Dave! This is "THE" passage that confirmed the calling of our lead pastor David Evanger in 2007 which began the journey of being called to the mission field of sharing the gospel with young working adults and inviting them t...

1 Corinthians 15:12-20 || Join us as we begin to consider some of the most exciting portions of scripture as it points to the promise of RESURRECTION. This is the reason for everything - the hope of which we profess and live towards as Christ's followers.

Our ministry partner Voula Antouan is the Director of Humanitarian Initiative Bridges which operates and serves refugees in Athens, Greece. Her ministry involves serving the tangible needs of displaced people seeking asylum in Greece from dangerous situations which forced them to flee from the Middle East, while also meeting their personal/emotional/ spiritual needs, and sharing prayers and the go...

1 Corinthians 15:1-11 || Christians are prone to forgetting how to handle the gospel of grace which leads to all sorts of problems and the Corinthian church is a great example. What might it look like to let the grace of the resurrection rule our lives? What tangible and existential problems might it correct?

1 Corinthians 14 || This week we get to look at a fascinating passage that covers a lot of territory of who, when, and how to speak when the church gathers together. Have a read of 1 Corinthians 14 and come expectant this Sunday for God to SPEAK.

1 Corinthians 13 || This week we talk about one of the most famous verses used in weddings but is it really relevant to holy matrimony? Or is there something more to the command to love? Let's consider it together.

1 Corinthians 12 || What does it mean to be the body of Christ? Are certain gifts within the church more important than other gifts?

Psalm 45 || This Sunday we get to unpack a truly one-of-a-kind Psalm to close out of Sumer of Psalms series. This Psalm takes us into the "Perfect Wedding. Is there such a thing?

Psalm 33 || Dubbed the "untitled Psalm", Pslams 33 uniquely integrates some of the most basic themes of Christian theology: creation, covenant, history, and humanity - and ultimately our response of worship. It's easy to look at the past and say that God's power was present then but what about now?

Psalm 7 || David pleads for deliverance again, yet this time he doesn't link it to God's promises or love for him, instead he grounds it squarely in God's justice. How can an aspect of God that has the tendency to rub the 21st century Seattlite the wrong way actually be that which provides life for David resulting in praise?

Psalm 89 || Does God really love us and keep His promises? At first glance Psalm 89 seems to be a song praising the love and faithfulness of God - but by the end, we discover the psalmist is actually questioning it. When we encounter suffering and hardships can we be certain that God is for us?
