This sermon, based on Ephesians 2, argues that the gospel forges a deep, multicultural oneness among believers by creating a new, supernatural community in Christ.

This sermon explains that Christians can endure hardship by understanding that God, as a perfect parent, uses discipline to train and nurture His children.

This sermon distinguishes God's holy jealousy from human envy, explaining that it stems from His profound love and desire for an exclusive relationship with His people.

This sermon explains that Jesus' resurrection is the "first fruit" of a coming new heaven and new earth, offering believers a tangible hope of a future where all things are made new.

This sermon examines three of Jesus's final statements from the cross in the Gospel of John, interpreting "I thirst" as His spiritual desolation and fulfillment of scripture.

This sermon uses the prophet Habakkuk as a model for wrestling with God about suffering and injustice, encouraging believers to bring their honest doubts and fears to God without abandoning their faith.
