    In John 5:25-29, Jesus speaks of two future resurrections. Those resurrections are described in Revelation 20:4-6 & 11-15. One resurrection leads to everlasting joy, and the other leads to everlasting judgment. Which resurrection will you experience?

  11. #188 - Jesus Knows You

    When Jesus speaks to the churches in Revelation 2-3, He uses the phrase “I know…” on multiple occasions. This sermon will cover His words to the churches as a reminder that Jesus intimately knows us. The One who knows you completely also loves you perfectly.

  12. #187 - Rejected Truth & Redeeming Grace

    The Scriptures are clear that those who reject the truth will face everlasting punishment. Those who receive God’s grace will enter into eternal rest. This message from 2 Thessalonians 2:9-14 focuses on where the responsibility falls for each of those eternal destinies.

  13. #186 - While We Wait

    In 2 Thessalonians, Paul delves into some deep theology, but the final chapter contains some extremely practical instruction. Jesus is coming back, but how should the Christian behave until He does? 2 Thessalonians 3:6-15 tells what we should do while we wait.

  14. #185 - Keeping The Main Thing The Main Thing

    Many believers get distracted from the truth of the gospel by pursuing theological puzzles and empty, endless discussions. This message from 1 Timothy 1:3-7 is a reminder for us to keep the main thing the main thing.

  15. #184 - When God's People Gather

  18. #181 - Invited To The Table

    In Luke 14:12-24, Jesus tells a parable about a banquet while attending a banquet. The point of the parable: Those who make excuses for rejecting God's invitation will miss the joy of His kingdom. The kingdom will be filled with humble recipients of grace.

  19. #180 - Rescued From Darkness

    Jesus has the authority to free people trapped in darkness. Luke 8:26-39 tells the story of a man who was in need of rescue.

  20. #179 - Grace They Couldn't Accept

    In Luke 4, Jesus goes to the synagogue in His hometown. At first, the crowd is in wonder of Jesus, but, quickly their admiration turns to rage. This change hinges on Grace They Couldn’t Accept.

  21. #178 - A Better Covenant

    Hebrews 8 is a chapter that mirrors the theme of the entire book: Jesus is greater, and the new covenant He brings is better. Jesus mediates a better covenant that provides what the old covenant never could.

    Hebrews 3:7-19 reminds us that those who harden their hearts to God’s voice will miss out on God’s rest. This sermon will lay out the progression of How The Heart Grows Hard.

  23. #176 - Remember Whose You Are

    We often need to be reminded who we are, because identity shapes behavior. Ephesians 4:1-3 reminds us that, because we belong to Christ, we should live in humility, patience, and loving unity.

  24. #175 - The Sufficiency Of Grace

    What if your greatest struggle is not an obstacle to God’s work, but the platform for it? In 2 Corinthians 12:2-10, Paul reminds us that God’s power is most clearly displayed when we depend on Him in our weakness.

  25. #174 - The Right Response To Grace

    In 2 Corinthians 6:1-13, Paul reminds the Corinthians that God’s grace has been extended to us, and now is the day of salvation. He also admonishes them to come to God with hearts wide open. This is The Right Response To Grace.

  26. #173 - Between Two Worlds

    For the believer, this world is full of reminders that we are not yet home. One day, we will leave the heartaches of this world behind. Until then, our longing for our eternal home should fuel us to live faithful, God-pleasing lives here and now. This sermon, from 2 Corinthians 5:1-10, reminds us...

  27. #172 - Growing Through What You're Going Through

    God uses the trials of our lives to develop steadfast faith in us. James 1:2-8 gives us a few responses to trials that help us experience them in a purposeful way. These responses help you that you are Growing Through What You’re Going Through.

  28. #171 - When He Calls Your Name

  31. #168 - Misplaced Devotion

    In John 5, Jesus claims to be divine and offers a succession of witnesses that testify to that truth. The religious leaders' rejection of Jesus is evidence of their Misplaced Devotion. Be sure your devotion is in the right place - firmly set on Jesus.

  32. #167 - Receiving The Word

    John begins his gospel by telling us all about the Logos - the Word. This sermon explores his prologue and emphasizes the importance of Receiving The Word.

  33. #166 - Following God Anyway

    Acts 21:1-14 tells of Paul's journey to Jerusalem on his third missionary journey. Despite many warnings, Paul continues toward his destination. This sermon, Following God Anyway, reminds us that following God's will is costly, but not following His will costs us even more.

  34. #165 - How To Listen To A Sermon

  42. #157 - Go & Tell

    Matthew 9:35-38 is a passage that reminds us that the Bible never commands the lost to come to church. Instead, the Bible commands the saved to go to the lost and tell them the gospel of the kingdom.
