"An Ezer Like Him" by Bryan Schiele

295 | Seven Sermon Summer Surfin’ Spectacular | Stand With Your HelperSurf's up for another entry in our Seven Sermon Summer Surfin' Spectacular! Between cross-country moving logistics, hauling heavy furniture, and nursing sore backs, Bryan steps up to the pulpit to deliver a powerful lesson all about what it truly means to be a "helper." Starting in the Upper Room with Jesus' promise of "another Helper," Bryan unpacks four Old Testament and New Testament snapshots of God stepping into impossible situations when His people are outmatched and outgunned. But the lesson takes a dramatic turn back to Genesis 2. Exploring the Hebrew roots of Ezer(rescuer, strength) and Kenegdo (corresponding, eye-to-eye puzzle piece), alongside God's fierce, womb-like compassion (Rahamim), this Mother's Day sermon dismantles cultural misconceptions about biblical womanhood and calls us to honor the life-saving strength of the helpers in our lives.The Big Idea: Biblical help is never about subordinate assistance or fetching coffee, but mighty, life-saving, and strong.Show NotesAn Ezer Fit for Him (PASSAGE)The God of My Father Was My Help (PASSAGE)My Help Comes from the Lord (PASSAGE)A Mother's Compassion and God's Unfailing Love (PASSAGE)The Lord is My Helper (PASSAGE)Support the Show
