If the whole body were an ear, where would be the sense of smell? 18 But as it is, God arranged the members in the body, each one of them, as he chose. 19 If all were a single member, where would the body be? 20 As it is, there are many parts, yet one body.

Send us Fan MailIn this message from Nehemiah 3-4 we see God's people rebuild the wall while facing mockery, threats, discouragement, and exhaustion. Nehemiah shows that opposition drives God's people to prayer, wise preparation, obedience, unity, and trust that the Lord will fight for them. The sermon points us to Christ, who faced the greatest opposition on our behalf, and calls the Church to serve together as living stones in the eternal city God is building.

The officers posted themselves behind all the people of Judah 17 who were building the wall. Those who carried materials did their work with one hand and held a weapon in the other, 18 and each of the builders wore his sword at his side as he worked. But the man who sounded the trumpet stayed with me.

Send us Fan MailIn this message from 1 Timothy 4:6-10, we see Paul call believers to reject empty religious distractions and train for godliness because our hope is set on the living God. The sermon challenges families and the church to value spiritual presence over mere provision, to prize Christ above success or achievement, and to live as though godliness is of eternal worth in every way.

Send us Fan MailIn this message from Nehemiah 1-2, we see how Nehemiah trusts and obeys God through promises remembered, prayer in action, preparation for risk, and provision given. As Nehemiah responds to broken walls and a desperate need with faith-filled courage, the sermon points us to Christ, who risked and gave far more to rescue His people and call us to trust and obey.

What can flesh do to me? 5 All day long they injure my cause; all their thoughts are against me for evil. 6 They stir up strife, they lurk; they watch my steps, as they have waited for my life. 7 For their crime will they escape? In wrath cast down the peoples, O God! 8 You have kept count of my tossings; put my tears in your bottle. Are they not in your book? 9 Then my enemies will turn back in the day when I call. This I know, that God is for me. 10 In God, whose word I praise, in the Lord, whose word I praise, 11 in God I trust; I shall not be afraid. What can man do to me? 12 I must perform my vows to you, O God; I will render thank offerings to you. 13 For you have delivered my soul from death, yes, my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of life.

Why call me Naomi, when the Lord has testified against me and the Almighty has brought calamity upon me?”

Send us Fan MailThis Day Is Holy9 And Nehemiah, who was the governor, and Ezra the priest and scribe, and the Levites who taught the people said to all the people, “This day is holy to the Lord your God; do not mourn or weep.” For all the people wept as they heard the words of the Law. 10 Then he said to them, “Go your way. Eat the fat and drink sweet wine and send portions to anyone who has nothing ready, for this day is holy to our Lord. And do not be grieved, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.”

Send us Fan MailIn this message, we wrap up nearly two years in the Gospel of Luke by exploring Jesus' final appearances before His ascension. Through Luke 24:36-53, we discover six life-changing truths for every believer: receive the peace that only a risen Savior can give, trust in the reality of the physical resurrection and the future hope it promises, ask Jesus to open your mind to Scripture, embrace the call to proclaim repentance and forgiveness to all nations, walk in the power of the Holy Spirit, and live with joyful expectancy as we await Christ's return. If you've ever wrestled with doubt, wondered about your purpose, or simply needed encouragement — this message is for you.

Send us Fan MailIn the first book, O Theophilus, I have dealt with all that Jesus began to do and teach, 2 until the day when he was taken up, after he had given commands through the Holy Spirit to the apostles whom he had chosen. 3 He presented himself alive to them after his suffering by many proofs, appearing to them during forty days and speaking about the kingdom of God.

Send us Fan MailOn the road to Emmaus, two disciples walked alongside the risen Jesus — and didn't even recognize him. In this message from Luke 24:13-35, we explore what it means to truly see Jesus for who he is.Through this powerful resurrection account, we discover four truths for our lives today:1. Recognize the True Identity of Jesus — He was more than a prophet or political hero. He is Lord and Messiah, the King of all nations.2. Don't Be Slow of Heart to Believe the Resurrection — Doubt is nothing new. Even those closest to Jesus struggled to believe — but Jesus meets us in our doubt.3. Realize the Importance of Scripture — From Genesis to the Prophets, God's rescue plan through Jesus was always the plan. His Word has the power to change everything.4. Ask Jesus to Open Your Eyes — Just as he opened the eyes of the two men on the road to Emmaus, Jesus can take you from despair to delight, from foolishness to faithfulness.Would you see Jesus with new eyes today?

Send us Fan MailIn Luke 23:50–24:12, this message calls us to remember and celebrate the victory of Jesus’ resurrection. It highlights Joseph of Arimathea’s faithful care for Jesus’ burial and then shifts to the women at the tomb, who discover the stone rolled away and hear the angels’ announcement: “He is not here, He has risen.”The sermon shows how forgetting Jesus’ words can lead to subtle doubt, but remembering what Christ foretold leads to bold faith and a desire to go and tell others. Finally, it contrasts two responses to the resurrection, skepticism and marvel, and invites us to trust Christ, rejoice in His victory, and live as witnesses of the risen King.

And the curtain of the temple was torn in two. 46 Then Jesus, calling out with a loud voice, said, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!” And having said this he breathed his last. 47 Now when the centurion saw what had taken place, he praised God, saying, “Certainly this man was innocent!” 48 And all the crowds that had assembled for this spectacle, when they saw what had taken place, returned home beating their breasts. 49 And all his acquaintances and the women who had followed him from Galilee stood at a distance watching these things.

Send us Fan MailIn Luke 23:26–49, this sermon shows that forgiveness isn’t free—it was purchased at the cross. As Jesus is led to Calvary, He calls people to repentance and then displays stunning mercy by praying, “Father, forgive them,” even while He is being mocked and crucified.The message highlights the different responses to Jesus at the cross: some reject Him, but one criminal humbly asks for mercy and is promised paradise—an unforgettable picture of grace for the undeserving. The darkness and the torn temple curtain reveal the weight and meaning of Jesus’ death and the access to God He provides. The sermon ends by asking us to consider what should change in our hearts as we reflect on the true cost of forgiveness.
