This sermon explains that humanity, as image-bearers of God, is meant to reflect His greatness and love, but our inherent self-centeredness prevents us from doing so. The message highlights Jesus as the ultimate model of humility, who, despite being God, willingly emptied himself by becoming a servant and dying on the cross, providing the path to true transformation and the ability to reflect God's image.

This sermon explains that genuine, enduring faith is not achieved by focusing on one's own efforts, but by "beholding the Lamb of God," Jesus Christ, as the ultimate object of our faith. The message highlights that by understanding Jesus's sacrifice as the means to satisfy God's wrath and judgment, we are empowered to live a transformed life of grace, forgiveness, and love.

This sermon encourages parents to abandon worldly goals and instead focus on raising children who love and obey Jesus. It teaches that this is achieved through a gospel-centered method of parenting—shepherding the child's heart, not just correcting behavior—and by parents themselves modeling a secure identity as a child of God.

This sermon explains that an inconsistent, "yo-yo" faith is often caused by prioritizing feelings, choosing diversion, and pleasing people, rather than walking with God in a disciplined manner. The message emphasizes that the foundation for a consistent, God-pleasing walk is not personal effort but the perfect sacrifice of Jesus Christ, which frees and motivates believers to pursue a vibrant, daily relationship with Him.

This sermon argues that genuine faith is not about self-reliance but about living a life where Jesus, not ourselves, is the hero of our story. Using the example of Cain and Abel, the message highlights that while we are like Cain in our sinfulness, Jesus, the "truer and better Abel," offered a perfect sacrifice to free us from our self-centeredness and empower us to live by faith, trusting God with all that we are.

This sermon introduces a series on faith by defining it through three stages: comprehension, conviction, and commitment, arguing that true, enduring faith culminates in a life lived for God. The message emphasizes that while everyone has faith, its strength and stability depend on its object, and that genuine faith in Jesus Christ should lead to a transformed life of action and obedience.

This sermon, drawing from the story of Joseph, explains that God uses our experiences of hardship and suffering to work His ultimate plan of redemption and save others. The message highlights that while humanity intends evil, God always intends it for good, and this truth, perfectly exemplified in Jesus's sacrifice and forgiveness, empowers believers to be radical forgivers and agents of salvation.

This sermon, while acknowledging the complex relationship people have with their parents, teaches that true healing and joy come from obeying and honoring them out of a new identity in Christ. The message encourages believers to overcome past wounds by loving and forgiving their parents, mirroring the radical grace and mercy they have received from Jesus.

This sermon challenges a transactional view of God by proposing that greater need reveals God's greater sufficiency, a truth demonstrated by Moses's encounter with the holy and compassionate God at the burning bush. The message highlights that the ultimate proof of God's grace is found in Jesus's suffering on the cross, where He was abandoned so that believers would never be, making our own suffering a pathway to a deeper experience of Him.
