Daniel 2 18.01.2026

Daniel 2 shows us that God is always at work on more than one level at the same time. This sermon follows two clear movements in the passage. First, we see God at work in local history, in the immediate crisis facing Daniel and his friends as their lives hang in the balance. In the face of fear and uncertainty, God responds to prayer, grants wisdom, and proves Himself faithful in the details of or...

Hebrews 1:1-2:4 11.01.2026

In this sermon from Hebrews 1, Kenny Wallace, our guest speaker, calls listeners to listen attentively to Jesus, showing that God has spoken finally, fully, and personally through His Son. Jesus is not merely a messenger but God’s ultimate Word, fully divine, eternal, and supreme over all creation. The passage presents Jesus as Creator, Sustainer, and Savior, the radiance of God’s glory and the ex...

Daniel 1 04.01.2026

Daniel 1 places us in a moment of upheaval where familiar structures collapse and God’s people are carried into an unfamiliar world. Names are changed, routines are disrupted, and pressure mounts to conform to a new way of life that quietly reshapes identity and loyalty. Yet in the midst of exile, God remains steady and faithful. This sermon reflects on the quiet courage of choosing obedience when...

Psalm 90 28.12.2025

Psalm 90 meets us at the close of the year with clarity and hope. On the final Sunday of the year, this sermon invites us to reflect on the brevity of life and the faithfulness of the eternal God who has always been our dwelling place. Moses teaches us to number our days so that we might live wisely, not clinging to comfort or success, but seeking true satisfaction in the steadfast love of the Lor...

Matthew 1:18-25 21.12.2025

This sermon invites us to slow down and face the staggering claim at the heart of Christmas: God has come near. From Joseph’s quiet turmoil to the angel’s announcement, we are led into the mystery of the incarnation, where Jesus is fully God and fully human, not as an idea to admire but as a Savior to trust. The message shows how belief in the incarnation reshapes everything, giving meaning to mir...

John 21:1-19 14.12.2025

The sermon from John 21 draws us to the shoreline where the risen Jesus meets weary disciples with grace, abundance, and a call that still echoes today. We see a Good Shepherd who seeks out failed followers, feeds them before correcting them, and restores love before assigning responsibility. In the miracle, the meal, and the ministry, Jesus shows that our failures are not final and that devotion...

Exodus 16 07.12.2025

Exodus 16 reveals how God uses the wilderness to expose the heart and to teach His people that He is enough. This sermon traces four heart postures that rise up in seasons of lack and longing: comparison that rewrites the past, scarcity that doubts God’s provision, restlessness that refuses to rest, and recollection that remembers who God is and what He has done. Though Israel grumbles, God respon...

Romans 11:25–36 30.11.2025

Don't be conceited or arrogant. Rather, be humble, and praise God! Romans 11:25–36 pulls us into a sweeping mystery that calls for humility rather than pride. Paul warns believers not to become wise in their own eyes, reminding us that every bit of understanding, every gift of grace, and every place we stand in God’s story is something we received, not something we earned. Gentile believers are ur...

Romans 11:1-24 23.11.2025

A Faithful God and a Growing Family Romans 11 shows us a God who keeps His promises even when His people wander. This passage explains how Israel is not abandoned, how God preserves a remnant by grace, and how He uses their unbelief to bring salvation to the world. Gentiles are brought into God’s family with purpose, adding life and richness to His people, while also stirring Israel to see the bea...

Romans 10:5–21 16.11.2025

Romans 10:5–21 opens a wide door into the heart of the Gospel, showing that salvation is not distant or complicated but close enough to touch. This sermon unfolds how faith begins with knowing who Jesus is, grows as the heart believes He is Lord and risen, and becomes real as we confess Him openly. The word is near, not tucked away in heaven or hidden in the depths, but offered freely to anyone wh...

Romans 9:19–10:4 09.11.2025

Romans 9:19–10:4 wrestles with one of the hardest questions in faith: how God’s sovereign mercy and human responsibility coexist. This sermon explores Paul’s response to that tension through three truths. God is the potter and we are the clay, reminding us that our questions must be asked with humility before the Creator. God’s actions reveal His character, showing mercy against the backdrop of ju...

Romans 9:1-18 02.11.2025

This sermon from Romans 9 unfolds in three parts: Paul’s response to unbelief, the meaning of true Israel, and the character of a merciful God. Paul begins with deep sorrow for his fellow Jews who reject Christ, showing that real faith feels compassion for the lost rather than judgment. He then explains that not everyone born into Israel truly belongs to God’s people, for true Israel is defined by...

John 6:22-40 26.10.2025

The message focuses on Jesus’ words in John 6 where He declares that He is the Bread of Life. The pastor compares the joy and fullness of Thanksgiving to the deep satisfaction that only Christ can give. Every person is hungry in their soul, longing for meaning and fulfillment, yet we often turn to temporary things such as relationships, success, or comfort. Jesus invites us to stop chasing what fa...

Romans 8:18-39 19.10.2025

In this message from Romans 8, we are reminded that even in a world marked by pain, futility, and decay, God’s love remains unbreakable. Using the changing season of autumn as a picture of life, the sermon explores how beauty and brokenness coexist, yet hope shines through because God is at work in all things. The Spirit helps us in our weakness, God shapes us through every trial, and Christ’s lov...

Romans 8:1-17 12.10.2025

Romans 8:1–17 opens with one of the most freeing truths in Scripture: there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. This sermon unfolds what that means, revealing the beauty of new life made possible through the power of the Holy Spirit. We are given a new status as those who are no longer condemned but declared righteous before God. We are given a new way of life, freed from the...

Romans 7:13-25 05.10.2025

Romans 7:13-25 draws us into the deep tension of the Christian life, the struggle between what we desire to do and what we actually do. In this sermon, we face the painful honesty of Paul’s confession that we are slaves to sin, at war within ourselves, torn between delighting in God’s law and succumbing to our broken flesh. It is the universal human condition, doing what we hate and unable to chan...

Romans 7:1–13 28.09.2025

Romans 7:1–13 wrestles with a deep question: what is the Christian’s relationship to God’s law? This message unpacks Paul’s marriage analogy, showing that through Christ’s death we have died to the law and now belong to Him. The law itself is holy, righteous, and good, but sin twists it, turning even God’s commands into opportunities for rebellion. The law reveals our need, but it cannot save—it o...

Romans 6:15–23 21.09.2025

Romans 6:15–23 reminds us that neutrality is an illusion. We are always shaped by the master we follow, whether sin that erodes our lives and ends in death, or God whose gift is righteousness and eternal life. This sermon emphasizes that grace does not make obedience optional but makes it possible. Becoming a Christian means a change of masters, moving from slavery to sin into joyful service to Go...

Colossians 4:2–6 14.09.2025

This message from Colossians 4:2–6 wrestles with the question of what Christians should truly be known for in the world. Instead of fear, anger, or retreat, Paul calls believers to a life shaped by steadfast prayer, gracious words, and wise actions. The sermon highlights three movements: being active in prayer, being active in deeds and words, and trusting the activity of God. We are reminded that...

2 Timothy 3:14-17 07.09.2025

This sermon from 2 Timothy 3 reflects on three central aspects of the Reformed faith: covenantal, Christ-centered, and obedient to the Scriptures. Timothy’s upbringing shows how the covenant promises of God extend to believers and their children, inviting the whole church to share in the nurture of the next generation. At the heart of it all is faith in Christ, the center of life and salvation, re...

Psalm 89 31.08.2025

Psalm 89 carries us into the mystery of living between praise and lament. The psalmist begins with six reminders of God’s steadfast love, His promises to David, His power over evil, and His faithfulness across generations. Yet, with brutal honesty, he turns to complaint, asking how God’s covenant love can coexist with exile, defeat, and humiliation. The sermon highlights that two things can be tru...

Psalm 85 24.08.2025

Psalm 85 is a prayer for revival, reminding us that renewal is not something we can stir up, but something we must ask God to bring down. The psalmist shows us how: by remembering God’s past faithfulness, asking for His present mercy, and believing His promises for the future. True revival is not about big gatherings or emotional moments, but about hearts reignited with love for God, lives restore...

Psalm 87 17.08.2025

Psalm 87 celebrates a city founded, loved, and made glorious by God. Its foundation is not human strength but His presence. What is most surprising is the list of its citizens—Egypt, Babylon, Philistia, Tyre, and Cush—former enemies now welcomed as belonging to Zion. It is a vision of grace where the unlikely and the opposed are given a new identity. The church today shares in this glory, not beca...

Psalm 77 10.08.2025

Psalm 77 gives voice to the storms of the soul, where fear, doubt, and grief press hard against the heart. This sermon reminds us that you have a Good Shepherd who invites you to cry out, to open up, and to speak to Him about everything without fear of rejection. He has already met your deepest need at the cross, rescuing you from sin and death. Remembering His past faithfulness, like His delivera...

Psalm 79 03.08.2025

Psalm 79 gives voice to a people reeling from the consequences of sin and crying out for mercy. In this sermon, we are invited to hold together honest confession and bold hope. The psalm names the wreckage, pleads for forgiveness, and asks God to act not only for our sake but for the sake of His name. It is a prayer for those who feel the weight of guilt yet still believe God hears. In Christ, the...
