Psalm 119:25-32 A Heart for the Word 6/14/26 Sermon
Ask for life and hope… What we need most when life is hard is for the hope that only the Lord can give. The psalmist asks for this in prayer, listening closely and attentively to the words and ways of the Lord.

Psalm 119:17-24 Eyes to See 6/7/26 Sermon
Blessing instead of despair. God’s blessing matters not just for the future, but even in the present. The way to delight is found not in focusing on those who oppose the Lord, not in how they seek to harm the ones who follow God’s words, but instead: we focus on what our Lord has said.

Psalm 119:9-16 Fix Your Eyes 5/31/26 Sermon
A delightful way. The call of Psalm 119 isn’t only a call to read the scriptures. It’s more! It’s a call to delight in God’s word given to God’s people. What does that delight look like and how can we have it? The psalmist answers: teach me, declare, and delight.

Psalm 119:1-8 Delight in the Lord 5/24/26 Sermon
The blessing you can have. Far from being unattainable, you and I can have this blessing because Jesus has won it for us – He perfectly keeps all God’s words, He has fulfilled the law. Because of Jesus, because every Christian has the Holy Spirit, we too can follow the pattern of treasuring God’s words in how we live and respond.

Ephesians 6:21-24 Encouragement 5/17/26 Sermon
Grace matters. The very kinds of things that Paul prayed for at the beginning of the letter are what he continues to hope for and point them to here at the end. Because of Christ’s work, Paul can confidently offer a blessing to God’s people in the pattern of the very things that our Savior has won for us. These are what we should embrace, treasure, and point one another toward.

May 10, 2026 Sermon
Every Christian has been provided with what we need to stand firm and faithful in this life. That armor comes not from our own strength or knowledge, but instead from our King. When we trust and follow King Jesus, He will see us through this life.

Ephesians 6:10-13 Stand! 5/3/26 Sermon
You’ve been equipped to stand. Every Christian is given in Jesus, and by the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, all that we need to be found faithful.

Ephesians 6:1-9 Gospel-shaped 4/26/26 Sermon
Gospel-shaped home. Paul’s teaching on how the Gospel changes Christians extends from marriage (5:22-33) to the family. Children are called to obey their parents in line with God’s law and the way that He has made the world: obedience brings blessing. Parents – fathers are specifically in view here – are to seek to not frustrate or provoke their children, but instead are to build them up in every way that points to the Lord, through discipline and instruction.

Ephesians 5:22-33 The Mystery of Marriage 4/19/26 Sermon
Chapter 5 has called all Christians to be imitators of God and to walk in love and wisdom; one way we do that is by displaying Christ’s love for His church in marriage.

Ephesians 5:15-21 Filled With the Spirit 4/12/26 Sermon
Lord, we ask for you to do what is humanly impossible when you save us; now we ask that you continue that miraculous work in our heart and mind: make us to earnestly desire all that you have said is best so that we would experience the joy of being filled with your Spirit!
