Romans 8 is one of the most well-known chapters in the Bible. This is for a good reason, as the Apostle Paul pulls together the scope of the gospel into a crescendo of God's sovereign grace. Through April and May we slow down and go deep into the heart of God's salvation and all it means!

We reflect on the rest of Romans 1, taking a longer look at what Paul meant by "natural."

He is risen! This morning, we celebrate the empty tomb and Jesus' resurrection! Jesus promises His disciples that He will go on ahead of them into Galilee. He will prepare the way and meet them there. The question of faith then, and now, remains: will we trust Him to meet us too?

Jesus instructs us to devote more time and energy to aligning our hearts and lives with truth of his Word than to aligning our profiles and feeds with groups or causes.

We consider Mark 15:21 - 41 and the centurion's cry, and how Mark uses the titles of Jesus to frame his gospel.

We look at Isaiah 56 and Jeremiah 7 & 8 in relationship to the original context in which the words of Jesus were used and how they find their fulfillment in Jesus.

AND, God has always been at work to bring deliverance to His lost people. We read about judges and how God uses ordinary men and women to save His people in the midst of mistakes and tragedy and points...

We explore the phrase "God gave over" from Judges 3 and its connection to Romans 1:18 - 32.

In our Advent Series, "King of Kings," we reflect on the political leadership and happenings of the day, just as the prophets grounded their proclamations of a coming kind in the historical happenings of their day. Our hope is that amidst worldly government turmoil and national political polarization, we will see, come and worship Jesus, the King of Kings. Our theme verse comes from Mary...
