This sermon teaches that while religion often uses shame to control us, Jesus's grace confronts and ultimately destroys it. Through His loving gaze and His sacrificial death on the cross, Jesus bore the shame we deserved, enabling us to come out of hiding, receive His forgiveness, and be clothed in His honor.

This sermon proclaims that the resurrection of Jesus Christ is the ultimate display of God's grace, which unleashes our faithfulness and provides the promise of abundant, eternal life. By shifting our search for fulfillment from fleeting worldly things to the living Christ, we can live a life of joy and hope, knowing that even suffering will ultimately be undone in God's restored creation.

This sermon teaches that the cross reveals three types of people: the lost who mock and demand rescue, the found who repent and desire God's presence, and Jesus, the God-man, who offers paradise. The profound grace of the gospel is shown in Jesus's last-minute promise to the repentant thief, assuring all believers that true salvation is found not in a change of circumstances, but in a positional union with Christ, secured by His divine sacrifice.

This sermon defines hypocrisy as a destructive, actor-like duality between one's inner self and outward actions, which is primarily rooted in image management and the deception of the heart. The solution, it argues, is to humbly admit one's own sinfulness while simultaneously accepting the complete forgiveness and acceptance offered by Jesus, which frees a person to live with integrity and vulnerability.

This sermon contrasts the detached, religious approach of the Pharisee Simon with the passionate devotion of a sinful woman. The core message is that true Christianity is not about being a "good" person but about having a personal, unconditional, and heartfelt relationship with Jesus. The depth of our love for God is directly proportional to our awareness of how much we have been forgiven by His immense and costly sacrifice.

This sermon, centered on the parable of the Good Samaritan, argues that true satisfaction and a transformed life come from understanding that we have first been loved by God, not from a futile search for worldly fulfillment. It breaks down the parable to show that the mandate to love God and neighbor is a standard no one can perfectly meet, and that the magnitude of radical, sacrificial love is only possible when we see ourselves as the wounded person on the road who has been saved by Jesus, our ultimate Good Samaritan.

This sermon argues for the historical accuracy of the Bible, emphasizing that its accounts are rooted in credible eyewitness testimony and early dating, not myth or corruption. The core message is that the Bible is fundamentally about Jesus Christ, who perfectly fulfilled all of God's law and bore its curse on the cross, offering a grace-based salvation that leads to a transformed heart and a burning desire for Him.

This sermon uses the story of Zacchaeus to outline the process of conversion, emphasizing that it begins with a seeking heart and culminates in a joyful submission to Christ, free from the constraints of social pressure and religious works. It asserts that salvation is a gift of God's grace, received through faith in Jesus' imputed righteousness, which empowers a transformed life of obedience and generosity.

This sermon argues that serving Jesus is a radical commitment to His mission, not an attempt to use His power for personal gain or to balance faith with other earthly priorities. It emphasizes that true service is a joyful response to God's grace, rooted in the identity of being saved, rather than a means of earning His favor.
