A sermon from Brent Kercheville. We have been looking at the suffering of Job. We have noted that his suffering and pain have been extraordinary. Further, Job’s friends have come to comfort and show sympathy to Job. But rather than succeeding, they have been miserable comforters to him. We have also noticed that Job’s suffering has caused him to feel […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. Lamentations 3 is a description on how to have hope while grieving. Jeremiah and the people of Judah are grieving and broken over the destruction of Jerusalem. It is a time of shock, loss, and anguish. We have seen in our study of Lamentations that grief is not a straight line. We saw the prophet […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. The purpose of Job’s three friends coming to see Job was to offer him comfort and sympathy (cf. Job 2:11). The friends have had many things to say to Job by the time we come to Job 16. Job has not found his friends to sympathizers or comforters. Listen to what Job says: Then Job […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. There is a temptation when reading or studying the book of Job to want to get to the end of the book. We are people who just want to get to the bottom line. We will be tempted to cut out the middle of this book and run to chapter 38 where God shows us […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. We have been moving through the book of Lamentations looking at how the author of this book is teaching the people to grieve their suffering. Jerusalem has been destroyed. God had given the people over to the Babylonians because of their sinning against him. Even Jeremiah himself is having difficulties processing what he is seeing […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. Job has lost everything. Job has lost his possessions and wealth. Job has lost his way of life. Job has lost his ten children. Job has lost his health. Satan has taken Job to the edge of his life, yet Job still breathes. Job’s wife has told Job that if God is not going to […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. The book of Leviticus ends with hopeful instructions for the people. The message of Leviticus has been the message of holiness and atonement. God is holy and the people must therefore be holy. God will make the people holy through atonement and by giving them instructions to follow so that they can remain in fellowship […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. The book of Leviticus is the manual for knowing how we can remain in fellowship with God. God has come down and the glory of the Lord has filled the tabernacle (Exodus 40). Now that God is among his people, directions must be given for how the people can dwell with him without being consumed […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. The book of Lamentations takes the reader on a journey of grief. In our last lesson we introduced the concept that the people of God are frequently pictured as expressing their grief. More than one-third of the Psalms are considered psalms of lament and grief. The book of Lamentations contains five poems proclaiming grief on […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. How bad can your life get before you would challenge God and give up on him? How bad does the trial have to be before it would cause you to break? Satan is attempting to find out what it takes to break Job and his faith. We could read the first chapter of the book […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. Please open your copies of God’s word to Job 1. In our message last week we notice the question of suffering. The question of suffering regards your motivation for serving God. Suffering asks the question if we serve God for God or if we have ulterior motives. Suffering shows if we serve God for his […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. We knew something was wrong but we did not know what. After having two other children, we knew that there was something that was not quite right. Our concerns were dismissed but we knew something was amiss with our third child. We went to all kinds of specialists, trying to determine what was the cause […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. We are beginning a new series called God In The Storm in which we are going to look at the key teachings about suffering and trials from the book of Job. I want to state at the outset of this series that it is not my goal to cover every verse in the book of […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. We have been looking at the regrettable decisions people made when they encountered Jesus. Imagine if you had the opportunity to hear Jesus teach. What would you think? Imagine if you had the chance to see Jesus perform a miracle. What would you have done? But I want you to imagine a slightly different opportunity. […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. The prophecy of Jeremiah has been a book of failure. As we come to the end of our study of Jeremiah we are taking a moment to look back at the failure of the people of Judah. They have traded the Lord for things that are not gods (Jeremiah 2:10-11). They have exchanged the fountain […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. We have spending our time looking at the regrettable decisions people made when they encountered Jesus. Imagine that you had the opportunity to speak to Jesus. Imagine if you had the opportunity to see one of Jesus’ miracles. Imagine if you could ask Jesus one question. In Mark 10 we are going to read about […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. We have been looking at different encounters that people had with Jesus. In today’s lesson we are going to look at a group of people who started following Jesus. As we look at this group, I want us to think about this question. Is there a wrong way to follow Jesus? Is it possible to […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. As you open your copies of God’s word to Jeremiah 46, I want us to notice how this section of the book of Jeremiah begins. It simply reads, “The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the nations” (Jeremiah 46:1). The majority of the book of Jeremiah has been God’s gracious […]

A sermon from Brent Kercheville. We are looking at the regrettable decisions people made when they encountered Jesus. Last week we noticed the person who interrupted Jesus’ sermon with his concern about receiving his portion of the inheritance. We are going to look at another encounter with Jesus. Open your copies of God’s word to Luke 4 and we are […]
