Our Forsaken Savior
The cross is uncomfortable. We’d rather look ahead to Jesus’ resurrection and victory than dwell on his suffering and abandonment. But in Matthew’s account of the crucifixion, Jesus is forsaken by his disciples, rejected by his people, mocked by the world’s powers, and finally cries out, “My God,...
-
One Righteous Man
There’s a lot of pressure to be perfect—to be a perfect parent, spouse, friend, employee, Christian. But none of us are perfect. We are sinful, unrighteous, and still in progress. So how can imperfect people like us stand before a perfect and holy God? Matthew 27 helps us see the answer as we…

Two Trials
Following the arrest of Jesus, Matthew 26:57–75 captures two different, but related, "trials" unfolding at roughly the same time. As they do, we learn important truth, both about who Jesus is and what He came to do.
-
According to Plan
How much does Jesus love you? And how do you know? In Matthew 26, we see Jesus moving steadily toward the cross—knowing exactly what was coming, wrestling in Gethsemane with the cup of God’s wrath, and then willingly embracing the Father’s plan. This familiar story of betrayal, abandonment, and...
-
Matthew 26:17-30
The Bible is fascinatingly honest about our shortcomings. It doesn’t hide the weakness, unfaithfulness, fear, sin, and fragility of God’s people—it puts them on display. Why? Because we are fallen, finite, fragile people who falter. And that’s precisely the point of the Lord’s Supper. As Jesus...
-
The Valuation of Jesus' Death
What is Jesus’ death worth to you? We all put a value on things—and sometimes we discover we’ve badly underestimated what something is actually worth. In Matthew 26, as Jesus moves toward the cross, we meet people who place radically different values on His death: some see Him as barely worth...

Psalm 41
Psalm 41
-
Psalm 40
What do we do when we’re waiting for God’s deliverance—especially when the waiting is difficult, painful, or the consequences of sin seem more than we can take? Psalm 40 teaches us that remembering God’s grace in the past helps us rely on God’s grace in the present.
-
Psalm 39
One of the difficult realities of life as a Christian is that while our sins are forgiven when we trust in Jesus, and the wrath of God that we deserve for our sins is removed, the consequences of our sins are not immediately removed in this life. God disciplines those whom He loves. But what are…
more -
Psalm 38
What do you do when your conscience won’t let you forget your sin? Psalm 38 gives us a path from guilt to peace: receive God’s conviction, renounce our attempts at self-justification, and find rest in Christ. David’s burden was too heavy for him to carry—but not too heavy for Jesus. Our peace…
more -
Psalm 37
A real temptation of Christians is to look at the lives of non-Christians and feel envy. Envy when we see them succeeding and we're not; envy over some happiness they're experiencing; envy when we labor so hard to follow after Christ and yet see others being rewarded in the world. It can make us...
-
Psalm 36
The gospel isn't just the ABCs of Christianity—it's the A-to-Z of the Christian life. We never outgrow our need for the good news of Jesus. In Psalm 36, David shows us why: left to ourselves, our hearts drift toward sin, but God's steadfast love continually draws us back to life. This psalm…
more -
Psalm 35
What do you do when others tell lies about you? When you're falsely accused, mocked, betrayed, hurt by others unjustly, and want revenge? In situations like these, Psalm 35 teaches us that vindication, not vengeance, is the way of Jesus' people.
-
Psalm 34
Praise the Lord because He blesses those who take refuge in Him.
-
Psalm 33
Psalm 33 is a psalm of praise. It calls us to worship, gives us reasons to worship, but also describes the result of worship: strengthened faith. So whether your faith is weak or strong, Psalm 33 invites you to praise the Lord and let your praise strengthen your faith.
-
Psalm 32
We spend our lives chasing happiness, yet Psalm 32 points us to a joy greater than wealth, success, vacations, or even our closest relationships. David invites us to experience the deep blessing of God and exhorts us to rejoice in the joy of God's forgiveness by honestly confessing our sin to Him.
-
Psalm 31
Psalm 31 is a prayer for seasons of distress—when trouble surrounds you, when there is terror on every side, and when you desperately need strength. That may be where you are today. And if it's not where you are today, it will be you someday. So whether today, or someday, when you find yourself…
more -
Psalm 30
The Christian life is not a straight line of spiritual progress. Like David, we often stumble, drift, and find ourselves suffering the consequences of our sin. Yet this isn't a psalm of confession—it is a psalm of praise. One that teaches us to praise God, now and forever, for His restoring...
-
Psalm 29
What comes into your mind when you think about God? A.W. Tozer famously argued that nothing is more important, because our understanding of God shapes the way we live. In Psalm 29, David gives us a breathtaking vision of God's power. The God who welcomes us into His presence (Psalm 27) and...
-
Psalm 28
One of the most common objections to Christianity is that Christians think they're better than everyone else because we believe we're going to heaven and everyone else is going to hell—that there will be a judgment, and we'll be on the right side of it. We do actually believe that; but not in a...
-
Psalm 27
Fear reaches all of us. Fear of the unknown. Fear of failure. Fear of rejection. Fear of not being enough, not having enough, or not being able to change ourselves or others. And often, fear drives unhealthy responses in our lives—anxiety, anger, insecurity, passivity, escapism, and despair. In...
-
Rome
In just 350 years, Christianity spread from a small, unimpressive band of ordinary men on the edge of the Roman Empire to millions of believers across the empire itself. Humanly speaking, it made no sense. The disciples lacked power, education, influence, and status. Yet the church grew with...
-
Ephesus
As we arrive at Acts 19:23–41, we're told that "the word of the Lord continued to increase and prevail mightily" (Acts 19:20). The Gospel is on the move in Asia. In our passage, we see that this Gospel, the same Gospel that we continue to preach today, is a threat and a danger to false gods…

Athens - Part 2
What do you do with the person who seems completely unmoved by Christianity—the intelligent, thoughtful, culturally aware friend who doesn’t hate Christianity so much as find it irrelevant? The person who is confident, even “sound,” in their non-Christian convictions? In Acts 17, the Apostle Paul...

Athens - Part 1
What do you do with the person who seems completely unmoved by Christianity—the intelligent, thoughtful, culturally aware friend who doesn’t hate Christianity so much as find it irrelevant? The person who is confident, even “sound,” in their non-Christian convictions? In Acts 17, the Apostle Paul...
-
Thessalonica
We live in a culture filled with competing allegiances, where ultimate meaning is sought in politics, success, sexuality, comfort, family, or self-expression. While pluralism has brought many freedoms, it has also created confusion about what—or who—deserves our ultimate loyalty.
-
Philippi
In Acts 16, the Holy Spirit prevents the Apostle Paul from continuing his missionary activity in Asia, instead calling him to preach the gospel in Macedonia. This brings Paul and his fellow travelers to the city of Philippi where they have three encounters in which we see the gospel advance by...
-
Pisidian Antioch
Some of the most difficult people to share the gospel with are those who consider themselves to be Christians, but very likely are not. We might call them "religious" or "cultural Christians"—those who believe in God, are familiar with God, church, and perhaps even the Bible; and yet, seem to…
more -
The Gospel: What It Is & What It Does
It's Easter, so let’s get back to the basics: the gospel. Paul reminds us in 1 Corinthians 15 that the good news of Jesus—His death for our sins, his burial, and resurrection—is the foundation of our faith. And this gospel doesn’t just inform us; it saves, transforms, and empowers us.
-
The Cure for Hypocrisy
Many people today are skeptical of the church—and often for good reason. Experiences of hypocrisy, pride, and empty religion have left many disillusioned, even walking away. But Jesus isn’t surprised by that. In Matthew 23, He confronts religious hypocrisy head-on and exposes its root. This…
more -
It's a Trap!
The first verse of our passage sets the scene as religious leaders plot to trap Jesus with clever questions designed to stump Him, discredit Him, and back Him into a theological corner. As Jesus navigates their traps, even asking a few questions of His own, we (along with the religious leaders)…

The Wedding Feast
We all have something on our calendars that is immovable—something which everything else conforms around. Additionally, there are things in this life we dress up for! In the Parable of the Wedding Feast, Jesus wants you to receive the invitation to the Wedding feast, clear your calendar, and get...
-
Kingdom Responsibility
You can either reject the Son and lose the kingdom; or, receive Him and steward it. We all carry various responsibilities: jobs, families, church—the list goes on and on. In Matthew 21:33-46, Jesus teaches us something about kingdom responsibility. The Parable of the Tenants, from one angle, is a...
-
Inspection Time
Jesus inspects for obedient fruit from surrendered faith—not empty profession.
-
What Kind of Savior
Matthew 21:1–17 makes it clear that Jesus is the long-awaited Savior King from the line David that God had promised to send to His people. The text also confronts us with two important questions: 1) What kind of Savior King do you believe Him to be? 2) How does this line up with the kind of…

On Status and Service

-
How Are We to Wait? Part 2
Be watchful and working as you wait for Christ's return.
-

-
What Are We Waiting For?
The primary answer we get from this text with respect to the second coming is not to the question "What are we waiting for?" but rather, "Who?".
