Will Not God Give Justice to His Elect? | Luke 18:1-8 | The Persistent Widow In this message from Luke 18:1-8, we look at the parable of the persistent widow and the unjust judge, and ask the question at the heart of it: if a corrupt judge will eventually give a stranger what she asks for, how much more will a righteous, loving God give His own children what they need? This sermon walks through the text verse by verse, unpacks Jesus' "how much more" argument, and connects it to Matthew 7:7-11, James 4:2, and Romans 8:32 to show that persistent prayer isn't about wearing God down. It's about tr
Are you actually ready for Jesus to return, or do you just think you are? In Matthew 25:1-13, Jesus tells the Parable of the Ten Virgins, a story about a delayed bridegroom, a midnight cry, and a door that shuts. All ten bridesmaids are waiting. All ten fall asleep. But when the moment comes, five are ready and five are not, and they discover it too late.
We don't always see what God is doing. In Matthew 13:31–33, Jesus uses two ordinary pictures, a mustard seed and leaven, to teach us about the Kingdom of God. The kingdom may begin small. Its growth may happen slowly and invisibly. But what God starts, He will grow, and His kingdom will ultimately reach every corner of His creation.
Jesus tells a story about a servant who owed a debt he could never repay, was forgiven everything, and walked out the door to choke a man over a substantially smaller debt. We will look at how we can truly forgive from the heart.
He who dies with the most toys wins... or does he? Jesus tells a parable about a rich man who did everything right by the world's standards and everything wrong by heaven's. In this message from Luke 12:13-21, we walk verse by verse through the parable of the Rich Fool and ask the question underneath it: what are you really living for? Our lives were never meant to be measured by what we own. This sermon looks at how Christ alone satisfies what no barn, bank account, or possession ever can.
Why does it feel unfair when someone gets grace they didn't work for? In this sermon, we walk through Jesus' parable of the laborers in the vineyard and uncover the real source of the workers' grumbling. It isn't injustice. It's grace shown to someone else. Matthew 20 tells the story of a landowner who hires workers throughout the day, then pays the eleventh hour workers the exact same wage as the ones who labored since sunrise.
In this message from Luke 18:9-14, we walk through the Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector to see why respectability is not the same thing as reconciliation with God, why self-righteousness produces contempt instead of humility, and what it actually means to be justified before a holy God.
How is anyone supposed to call on a Savior they've never heard of? No one believes without hearing. No one hears without a preacher. No one preaches without being sent. In this sermon, we walk through Paul's logic step by step and ask a question that presses on every believer: how then, Lord? If salvation is available to everyone who calls, and calling depends on hearing, and hearing depends on someone going — where does that leave you? This message is a call to stop waiting for the gospel to spread on its own and start being purposeful about proclaiming it — in your home, your neighborhood, a
In this sermon from Luke 15:11-32, we walk through one of the most famous stories Jesus ever told and discover it's not really about a wayward son who wasted his inheritance. It's about a father whose love is running toward us before we ever make it home. Whether you've spent your life in the far country chasing things that left you empty, or you've spent your life in the house keeping score and missing the party, this parable has a word for you: the Father is calling, and the door is open.
Most people think the Parable of the Good Samaritan is simply a story about helping others. But look closer—and you'll find something far more convicting, and far more freeing, than a lesson in neighborliness. In this message from Luke 10:25–37, we trace the confrontation between Jesus and a lawyer who wanted to justify himself before God. Through the parable Jesus tells, we come face to face with the full demand of God's Law—love God with all your heart, and love your neighbor as yourself—and our complete failure to meet it. But here is the gospel: we are not primarily the Samaritan in this s
The central point of this passage is simple but searching: the state of the soil determines the fate of the seed. The same Word. The same Sower. Four completely different outcomes — all determined by the condition of the ground. This is the first sermon in our series on the Parables of Jesus.
In the final verses of Philippians, Paul does something remarkable — he ends with grace. As we close our series in Philippians, we look at Paul's farewell benediction in Philippians 4:21–23 and discover that these last few words carry the full weight of the gospel. Through a simple greeting and a single benediction, Paul shows us three things the gospel produces in every life it touches: a new family, a new mission, and a new identity. Whether you're wrapping up this series with us or discovering Philippians for the first time, this closing message is a reminder that the Christian life begins
In this sermon from Philippians 4:10–20, we walk through one of the most comforting promises in all of Scripture: “And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.” — Philippians 4:19 Can God really be trusted with your needs? How do we know? What does this promise actually mean? Does God promise comfort, wealth, and an easy life — or something deeper? In this message, we explore: The faithfulness and reliability of God What Philippians 4:19 truly promises How God provides for His people Why the cross is the ultimate proof of God’s provision How Chri
The Great Commission | Matthew 28:16-20 In this sermon from Matthew 28:16-20, we look at the final words of Jesus before his ascension — what we call the Great Commission — and ask what it means for every follower of Christ today. If you've ever wondered what your purpose is as a Christian, why the church exists, or what it actually means to make disciples, this message is for you. 📖 Text: Matthew 28:16-20
What does the Bible actually say about money and giving? In this sermon from Philippians 4:14-18, we discover that God ordains the means and the ends. He uses our giving as the instrument of His provision and the advance of the gospel.
