CURRENT SERMON SERIES:

Unfaithful People, Faithful God: A Study in Hosea

The story of Hosea is shocking and deeply personal. God commands the prophet to marry an unfaithful woman and continue loving her despite her betrayal. Why would God ask such a thing? Because through Hosea’s marriage, God is revealing something about his own heart. Israel had been spiritually unfaithful, yet the Lord refused to abandon his people. In this series we will see the scandalous beauty of God’s covenant love; a love that pursues, restores, and redeems even the most undeserving sinners.

This sermon teaches that the gospel of grace is an indispensable, inconceivable, and immeasurable gift from God, one that cannot be earned. Understanding this grace leads to true humility, freeing us from the need for self-promotion and self-loathing by showing that all are spiritually bankrupt without it.

This sermon teaches that our worship through singing is a powerful and beautiful response to God's worthiness, not just a transaction for blessings. When we sing, we unleash God's power in spiritual warfare and affirm our confidence in His unchanging covenantal love for us.

This sermon, based on Hebrews 12, teaches that God disciplines us not in anger but as a loving trainer, using painful hardships to nurture our growth and produce righteousness. We are called to endure this process, trusting that His discipline is for our good and leads to ultimate blessings, including healing and sanctification.

Pastor Jim addressed the topic of body image, explaining that it often becomes an idol when we seek acceptance and worth apart from God. He taught that true and lasting beauty is found not in external appearances or our own works, but in the gospel truth that we are loved and accepted by God because of His grace.

This sermon teaches that placing our hope and seeking our rest in leisure and recreation is a form of idolatry, as these can't provide true fulfillment. The message encourages us to find our rest by coming to Jesus, who, with His gentle and lowly heart, offers us true rest and a relationship that truly satisfies.

This sermon reveals that our pursuit of worldly fame is a form of idolatry, but the gospel offers true freedom from this obsession in the person of Jesus Christ. By humbly receiving the honor He purchased for us through His sacrificial death, we are empowered to serve others and find our true worth in Him alone, rather than in the fleeting recognition of the world.

This sermon, from the series "First Place Goes To," teaches that even good things like children can become idols if they take the first place in our hearts instead of God. Using the story of Abraham and Isaac, the message encourages believers to confront their idols, reminding them that true worth and success are found in Christ alone, not in the achievements of their children.

Based on Luke 24, this sermon teaches that Jesus' resurrection provides a powerful antidote to our doubts and fears, renewing our desires and freeing us from the fear of missing out. The message encourages us to live out the hope of the resurrection by doing good in the world, knowing that our own wounds can be redeemed for a greater purpose, just as Jesus retained His scars.
