In today's sermon, Pastor Andrew Coleman preaches on select passages from Scripture which show us God's amazing generosity. We see that God’s love means that God generously gives of himself to us. We also see that God CAN give all because he made all and owns all. God's amazing love displayed through his generosity is apparent from eternity past into present time and will continue into eternity fu...

Pastor Andrew preaches on Psalm 97, and as we dig into this passage, we see the Lord as the Reigning One and the Righteous One. God is the King over all creation--all nature and all nations--therefore, we can have joy and gladness! He has the victory over all things. God is victorious over evil and idolatry (the root of sin). God is victorious in delivering His people from the wicked. God is victo...

Pastor Andrew examines the Parable of the Prodigal Son, not just as a story of one wayward child but of two rebellious sons and a gracious father. It first highlights the burdens of being lost—shamelessness, desperation, and selfish envy—before revealing the joy of redemption. True joy begins when a sinner recognizes their desperate state, repents, and returns to God, mirroring the theme of joy in...

In Jesus' parable of the prodigal son, we see several important truths in regards to the human heart and the need for salvation through Jesus Christ. Ultimately, there is only ONE SOLUTION to our wicked, miserable hearts… we need a new one! And a new heart can ONlY come through Jesus Christ! 2 2 Corinthians 5:17 "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; beh...

In Zechariah 13:1–9, the LORD lovingly shows his people three layers of his salvation plan. The 'timeline' layer shows that God is working in and throughout history to bring about his plan of salvation. In the 'story-line-of-the-Bible' layer, God is showing how the narrative reaches its peak in Jesus Christ and goes beyond to the final day of judgment. And finally, in the 'Who is God?' layer, God...

Zechariah 12 is all about how God’s kingdom will come at great cost to God’s people and their king, BUT the results will be GLORIOUS. God’s people will be saved and cleansed from sin! Israel will experience turmoil and pain, but God will ​powerfully act to bring salvation. Israel's enemies will attack Jerusalem but God will deliver the city and its inhabitants. Furthermore, God will make his peopl...

We continue our study in Zechariah by looking at Zechariah 11:1-17. In this passage, we see several prominent themes. Some of the important themes are that God rules supreme over the wicked and the righteous of every age. God reveals His will and fulfills His purpose to His true people. Everyone is responsible for their own actions in response to God’s Word. Whenever people persist in rebellion th...

​​Ephesians 4:11–16 is all about growing in maturity. Each verse contains a statement about the ​importance of the church's growth. Without growth, a church is vulnerable and susceptible to errant teaching, bad leaders, and immaturity. God gave the church shepherds and teachers to guard and protect its maturity. Christian service and ministry work contributes directly to spiritual maturity. Pastor...

In this sermon, Pastor Andrew Coleman encourages us from Ephesians 5: 15-21. We see the admonition to "Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise" (Eph. 5:15). What does it mean to walk in wisdom? Ephesians 5:17 answers that question by telling us it is to "understand what the will of the Lord is". This passage continues to outline several specific ways for believers to walk in wi...

​International Mission Board president, Dr. Paul Chitwood, shares the World's greatest problem. In Romans 3:9–18, Paul explains that lostness is the World's biggest problem, because all have sinned against God. Lostness is an eternal problem and a universal one. The only solution to lostness is the gospel of Jesus Christ. From the beginning of time, each person is marked by the sting of the serpen...

As a wrap up to the year, Pastor Jason reminds us of the importance of living between grace and glory. After defining saving grace, he proceeds to make observations from Titus 2:11-3:8. Paul instructs Titus on the power of grace, he reminds him of grace in salvation, and he insists on grace in all of Titus' teaching. For Christians, grace is foundational to living rightly for God's glory. Without...

The birth of Jesus Christ was not without its family drama! In this sermon, Pastor Andrew shows how the Gospel writers, Matthew and Luke, recount the events surrounding Joseph and Mary and the birth of Christ. The background details of Joseph and Mary's lives reveal that God is sovereign in choosing them and that he is gracious to enter into our messy lives. As the Gospel writers unfold the story,...

In today's sermon, we study 3 John 5-8 and learn of the biblical importance of supporting missionaries who are sharing the Gospel in other countries and areas. We should PRAY, GIVE, and GO with great generosity and joy because of our love for Christ and our passion for his name to be proclaimed to the nations! ________________________________________ Links to Sermon Notes & Answers: ➤Sermon No...

Pastor Andrew Coleman continues our sermon series in the books of Zechariah and preaches on Zechariah 10. In this passage, we see that the people of Israel and Judah are destitute and afflicted because they have followed false gods and bad human leaders. Yet despite the people's sin and disobedience, the Lord yet again shows his immense kindness and compassion. The Lord promises restoration and re...

In today's sermon, Pastor Andrew Coleman preaches on Zechariah 9. In this passage, we see that God’s coming will secure His land, through His King and for His people. As we study this passage, we learn that just as God has judged His own people, so much more (without mercy) will He judge the wicked. We see the righteous King (Christ Jesus) return! We see that God’s covenant from Sinai is ratified...

In today's sermon, Pastor Andrew Coleman preaches on Zechariah 8. Throughout the Old Testament God promises that He will save His people. God progressively reveals His forgiving, saving nature through what He says and what He does with all humanity but specifically with His chosen people. In our passage today, we see that God’s plan is all about GOD’S MARVELOUS GRACE. We see God's PASSION for his...

Returning to the prophet Zechariah, Pastor Andrew preaches on Zechariah 7:1–14. Zechariah lived and prophesied in Judah after the Jewish people returned from exile in Babylon. The main thrust of God's message to his people is, "if you return to me, I will return to you." Mingled in Zechariah's prophesies are God's warnings and curses for sin. Because God is righteous, these warnings are just, nece...

In today's sermon, Pastor Ben Nistor preaches on Isaiah 40: 1-31. In this passage, Israel is facing a time of great difficulty after sinning and turning from the Lord to worship idols. As a result, the Lord's judgment comes against Israel through the kingdom of Babylon. Babylon destroys Israel and hauls off the people to captivity. In response, Isaiah brings a word of comfort and hope to Israel. G...

In this sermon, Pastor Andrew encourages us of some key truths to remember as we enter election season and also approach Thanksgiving and Christmas. We look at several scriptures (Philippians 4:4-7, Hebrews 12:1-2, 1 Timothy 4:7-8) and are reminded to be mindful, thoughtful, and worshipful regarding this season, and we are reminded to be "wise to the lies" of the world and Satan. _________________...

The Protestant Reformation began in the year 1517. But long before that, the Old Testament recounts one of the greatest reformations to have taken place in God's story of redemption: King Josiah's Reformation. After many kings brought Judah in a place of moral darkness and separation from the Lord, the future for God's people seemed bleak. God used King Josiah's reign to respond to Judah's predica...

The Reformation was a time in church history when the light of God's Word brought truth and clarity during a time of great darkness and started a movement based on the truth found in the Bible. In this sermon, we focus on Colossians 1: 18-23, which emphasizes 5 REALITIES which became foundational to the Reformation: 1) Christ is the only head of the church, 2) Christ is the only source of salvatio...

Zechariah 6:9–15 is a dream about the coming Messiah. In the dream, God confirms that several Jewish exiles will return to reestablish the crown of God's king at Jerusalem. Then, a man called, "The Branch," will rebuild the temple of God. This man, is Jesus Christ, whom Jeremiah predicts in Jeremiah 23:5-6. Jesus is the priest-king on the royal throne (Zechariah 6:13). His crown is a reminder to t...
