The Reign of Grace
September 24, 2023
We live in a world where everyone is trying to find or create an identity. Romans 5 says there are two fundamental identities: in Adam and in Christ. That is breaking news in a culture like ours. The bad news is, by nature, everyone is in Adam. The good news is, by faith, anyone can be in Christ.

Babel: Rebellious City of Man
August 20, 2023
Babel is the prototypical city of man: rebellious, prideful, exalting itself against God, and pursuing autonomy and self-sufficiency apart from him. Instead of filling the earth as God commanded, the Babelites settle in one place and try to make a name for themselves. We have capacity to do the exact same thing.

The Stain of Sin

God’s Grace for a New World
August 6, 2023
After the flood, God's purpose for humanity had not changed— He remained relentlessly committed to establishing His kingdom on earth through human beings made in His own image.

Of course, this covenant points us to the greater covenant we have in Jesus.

Why Doesn’t God Protect His People?

The Coming of the Spirit
April 26, 2026
Acts 2:1-13 is the fulfillment of Jesus’ promise to send the Holy Spirit to his disciples.
