In this expositional sermon on John 11:45–54, we see how the clearest display of Jesus’ power divides hearts rather than unites them. Some believe when they see Lazarus raised, while others harden themselves and begin plotting His death. Even in their rebellion, God is working out His sovereign plan as one man is set apart to die for the people. This passage presses us to consider whether we will come to the Light or turn away from the only One who can give us life.

In this expositional sermon on John 11:1–44, we see that Jesus does not move on our timeline, but always according to the perfect purpose of God, even when it leads through sorrow and death. He reveals that He is not only able to give life but that He Himself is the resurrection and the life, holding authority over the grave. As Lazarus walks out of the tomb at His command, we are forced to reckon with the same question given to Martha: do you believe this? The call of Christ still goes out with power, and those who hear Him must respond.

In this expositional sermon on John 10:22–42, Jesus declares with unmistakable clarity that He is one with the Father. This leavs no room for neutrality. As the religious leaders reject both His words and His works, we are confronted with the same question: will we recognize Him as God and follow Him, or turn away in unbelief?

In this exegetical sermon on Matthew 28:1-20; At the dawn of the first day of the week, two grieving women approached a sealed tomb morning the death of their dear friend, teacher, and Lord. When they arrived, they were met with an empty grave, a heavenly messenger, and a declaration that would change the course of history: “He is not here, for He has risen.”In this sermon, we step into that moment and wrestle with what the resurrection truly means about Jesus’ identity, the reality of sin, the defeat of death, and the urgent call placed on every one of us to respond.

They came to the tomb in grief—expecting death. Instead, they encountered an empty grave, a risen Savior, and a truth that changes everything. In this sermon from Matthew 28, we walk through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, the blindness that still rejects Him, the worship that rightly responds to Him, and the staggering declaration that He now holds all authority in heaven and on earth. If Christ is risen—and He is—then you cannot remain neutral.

The crowd shouted “Hosanna!” as their King entered Jerusalem, but Jesus wept. Why would the long-awaited Messiah arrive amidst joyful celebration… and yet weep? In this Palm Sunday message, we uncover the tragedy of a people who welcomed Jesus with their lips but missed Him with their hearts. The sobering warning to us is that we can do the same. The question is not whether you know about Jesus, but whether you truly recognize Him for who He is in the day of His visitation.

In this expositional sermon on John 10:1-21, Jesus declares Himself to be both the Door of the sheep and the Good Shepherd, exposing the blindness of false shepherds while calling His true sheep to hear and follow His voice. In this passage, we see the sharp division between those who recognize Christ and those who reject Him, fulfilling the very purpose of His ministry. Christ alone gives salvation, security, and abundant life—laying down His own life for His sheep. The question before us is unavoidable: do we hear His voice, and will we follow Him?

In this expositional sermon on John 9:18-41, we see that the investigation of the healed man reveals a deeper miracle than restored eyesight: the opening of spiritual eyes. Though confronted with undeniable evidence, the Pharisees refuse even to acknowledge the miracle, fulfilling the warning of Isaiah that some would see yet not perceive. Meanwhile the man once blind comes to recognize Jesus as the Son of Man and falls before Him in worship. The scene exposes a sobering truth; without the light that God alone gives, even the most religious can remain blind, while those whom Christ enlightens come to see and believe.

An exegetical sermon on John 9:1-17. Following Jesus teaching in the temple that He is the "Light of the world", He encounters a man born blind from birth. Though darkness had been all that this man was able to see his entire life, now, he will see the Light!

In Ruth 4, the story of Naomi’s bitterness and Ruth’s bold faith culminates at the city gate, where Boaz publicly redeems Ruth and restores a broken family line. Through the legal proceedings and the birth of Obed, we behold the faithfulness of God in raising up a kinsman-redeemer; ultimately pointing us to Christ, who secures our redemption and advances His covenant promises from Bethlehem to the throne of David.

In this sermon on Ruth 3, Del Christman explores the rich typology of the kinsman-redeemer, seeing in Boaz a shadow of Christ; our true and better Redeemer; who willingly spreads His garment over His bride to secure her rest and redemption. Through Naomi’s wise instruction and Ruth’s humble appeal, we behold the gospel pattern: a needy sinner guided to seek refuge under covenant mercy, finding in Christ the fulfillment of every promise.

In Ruth 1–2, we trace the Lord’s hidden providence through famine, loss, and bitter return, watching Him quietly prepare the stage for redemption. From Ruth’s covenant loyalty to Boaz’s gracious kindness in the field, we begin to see the early rays of hope that anticipate the greater Redeemer to come.

An exegetical sermon on John 8:31-59. Jesus makes one of His clearest claims to deity when He declares, “Before Abraham was, I AM.” This sermon explores how Christ reveals Himself as the eternal God in the flesh; and why many who heard Him refused to believe, exposing that the real issue was not confusion, but a rejection of God standing before them.

An exegetical sermon on John 7:53-8:30. Today, we will see Jesus proclaim himself to be the Light of the World. We will dig into all that means, especially with his declaration coming at the last day of the Feast of Booths. Just as God was in the midst of Israel in the desert, casting light on his people from His pillar of Fire, so Jesus is the light sent from God amidst His people!

An exegetical sermon on John 7:25-52. Today, we continue looking at the conversation between "The Jews", "The People", and Jesus at the feast of booths. The people are divided and confused, the Jews continue to seek Jesus arrest, and Jesus continues to speak the truth about who He is, and why He has come. The boldness of his claims during this feast must not be missed!

An exegetical sermon on John 7:1-24. In today's text we see Jesus at the feast of booths, being revealed at the middle of the feast in the Temple, the center of the feast, showing himself to be the very substance the feast was joyfully pointing forward to.

An expository sermon on John 6:35-59. This sermon of Jesus in sthe syangog of Capernaum, is one of His most repetative. We will see nine deeply theological teachings of Jesus, on repeat, 3, 4, 5, even 6 times! In the end, we must not miss that Jesus is the Bread of God come down from heaven to give life to all who believe in Him!

An expository sermon on John 6:25-40. The crowd that Jesus feed with bread from heaven, has misinterpreted the sign and wanted to make Jesus King (by force). They have not understood that Jesus is the Son of God, who gives life to all mankind. Jesus makes some of his most direct and powerful statements about His identity as he corrects the crowd.

An expository sermon on John 6:1-24. In this sermon, we will see Jesus perform 2 signs. The feeding of the five thousand, and walking on water. The Apostle John has told us that the reason for his writing these signs, is that we might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name! We will also see, that Jesus himself cares very much that people don't misunderstand that this is His identity!

An expository sermon on John 5:31-47. In this passage, Jesus speaks of 5 witnesses to his identity as the Messiah, the promised prophet, the Son of God, and savior of the world. Join us as we hear the testimony of John the Baptist, Jesus' works, God the Father, The Scriptures, and Moses.

An expository sermon on John 5:15-30 by Jeremy Lack. After very publically healing of the paratalytic man laying by the pool called Bethesda, the Jewish leaders are not pleased and demand to know who the man is who did this. Jesus does not shy away from this question, but boldly replies, with exactly who he is!

An expository sermon on John 5:1-15. Today, we see Jesus heal a paralytic man who has been in this state for thirty-eight years! We also see many reasons for why Jesus did this, when he did this, and where he did this. In the end, we are to see more clearly who Jesus is, and that should lead to us responding in worship!

An expository sermon on John 4:27-54. In this sermon, we look at Jesus’ healing of the royal official’s son and the difference between sign-seeking faith and true, obedient faith. We see how Jesus calls us to trust His word even before we see any visible results, because His word is sure. This passage reminds us that genuine faith rests not in miracles, but in the perfect authority and reliability of the Word of God.
