Sunday Sermons

At the end of unpacking the book of Genesis, we are now at a place to ask what all of this means to 21st-century ears. What is the message we are meant to walk away with as we continue in the biblical story? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The story of Joseph in Genesis 37-50 shows us what it means to maintain trust in God even in the face of terrible injustice. Join us as we walk through Joseph’s story and talk through its implications for us as followers of Jesus today. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Genesis ends with a throwback to the beginning and a foreshadowing of what is to come—Joseph a suffering servant is a glimpse of the suffering servant/king that is to come who will ultimately defeat death and the grave. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We have had a lot of conversations on Intergenerational Sundays about different components of church life, but  why  do we even bother going to church? Join us as we process this out together!  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Genesis Chapters 27-33 are six action-packed chapters through which the nation of Israel derived its name. And it’s through that story that Jesus chooses to challenge  the nation of Israel . Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Bible, particularly the OT, contains passages that can be difficult to interpret. Among them is the command for Abraham to sacrifice his son, Isaac, found in Genesis 22. What did the Lord mean by this? Why did he command it? And why didn't Abraham protest? Join us as we wrestle through this challenging text and learn what it has to say about the character of God and its connecti...

Genesis 10 & 11 presents us with a list of Noah’s descendants and the geographical territories they occupied, but how is that connected to the Lord’s actions at the tower in Babel?

Genesis is a story of beginnings (i.e., creation, the flood, etc.). And all these beginnings ultimately point to the most important beginning of all—the story of Christ. We can find our way home; exile is not permanent, and the floating coffin is not our legacy. There is hope in a God who has not lost hope in us. Hosted on Acast.

Genesis 6:1-4 is a mysterious text, and one of the most difficult interpretive passages in the whole Old Testament. Who are the fabled Nephilim? Who are the "sons of God" we see referenced? And what (if anything) is the connection between the two? Join us as we explore these and other questions connected to this challenging set of verses. Hosted on Acast.

It's why Jesus came to LIVE before he died. To usher in the great “reversal”, the un-doing, the upside-kingdom that’s not ruled by the plans and devices of the enemy. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

What was lost in the Garden is the ability to experience WITHOUT struggle and pain. That was our choice. And it was Christ’s choice to walk it WITH us, to walk us through it, and to change us from the inside out as a result of it. And THAT is why it’s so important to understand what was in the beginning, and where things went wrong. So that pain can have purpose, so that suffering can help us unde...

The Bible was written by 40+ authors over a span of about 1500 years, making it an incredibly diverse (and unique) book! Nonetheless, it tells one unified story, and it does so through the use of multiple literary styles (genres). As modern Bible readers, knowing the type of literature we're encountering can help us in our interpretation of the text. So, join us as we talk through the va...

Culture tells us there's never enough of what we need--enough time, enough money, enough of anything. But Jesus shows us a better way.
