CURRENT SERMON SERIES:

The gods We Trust

Many assume the Bay Area is becoming less religious, but the truth is we have not stopped worshipping; we have simply changed what we worship. In a culture shaped by innovation, prosperity, comfort, and the pursuit of happiness, we often look to technology, success, and self-determination to give us meaning, identity, and security. These things promise freedom and fulfillment, but when they take God’s place in our hearts, they become counterfeit gods that cannot ultimately satisfy us. The Bible teaches that every human heart is wired for worship, and whatever we trust most will shape the way we live. In this series, we will expose the idols of our culture and see how the living God confronts them through Jesus Christ, offering a deeper freedom, a truer identity, and a hope that no achievement or prosperity could ever provide.

This sermon explores the ten plagues of Egypt not as mere divine wrath, but as God's powerful answer to Pharaoh's question, "Who is the Lord?" It argues that the plagues demonstrate God's supremacy over all false gods, reveal that disobedience leads to the unraveling of creation, and ultimately show that God uses judgment as a means of gracious salvation, fulfilled in the cross of Jesus Christ.

This sermon, drawing from the call of Moses in Exodus, highlights that God is both transcendent and faithful, actively pursuing and working through ordinary people to fulfill his promises. It emphasizes that the ultimate proof of his loving and good plan is the cross of Jesus Christ, where he reconciled humanity to himself, proving his faithfulness even when we are not.

This sermon explores how the early chapters of Exodus illustrate that God saves His people from misery and enslavement even when He seems absent, often by using the weak and marginalized to fulfill His purposes. It connects these principles directly to Jesus Christ, the ultimate deliverer who brought true freedom not through worldly power, but through a life of humble service and a sacrificial death on the cross.

This sermon, using the story of Jonah, argues that true freedom from fear is not found in religious rituals but in sacrificial love, which is fully demonstrated in Christ's ultimate sacrifice. It encourages listeners to move past a conditional "if" relationship with God and to find security and peace in His unconditional love, trusting that life's storms are not for punishment but for redemption.

 

This sermon emphasizes that the gospel is not about what we do but about what Christ has already done for us, offering not only forgiveness but also His own perfect righteousness as a gift. It reveals that this good news is the very power of God, which transforms our lives by changing our status before God and inspiring us to live in obedience out of gratitude rather than obligation.

 

This sermon explains how Satan uses lies to tempt us into sin and then accuse us once we've fallen, focusing on past regrets, recurring sins, and false worldly standards. It teaches that the antidote to these "schemes" is to actively "draw from the gospel," relying on God's infinite grace and forgiveness to find our identity and strength.

 

This sermon, based on the Book of Daniel, teaches that believers are called to trust in God's power and sovereignty even when faced with overwhelming circumstances and to not compromise their faith. It highlights that true deliverance often comes not from God removing our trials but by Him strengthening us and working through them, ultimately proving that He is better than anything life can offer.
