Remain as You Are
November 6, 2022
Sometimes the way we talk about singleness frames marriage as the aim of life. For Paul, our aim in life is to be fully devoted to God, and he thinks singles have an advantage on that front. He wants us to rethink our view of marriage and singleness in light of the gospel and the kingdom work at hand.

When Life Catches up to You
October 30, 2022
We can all probably remember a time when we felt a sense of newness and excitement in our faith. But inevitably, life has a way of catching up with us. And when it does, we can lose our sense of joy and commitment in our walk with God. What do we do when life catches up to us?

Instruction for Sex and Marriage
October 23, 2022
In the first part of chapter 7, Paul gives practical instruction related to sex, marriage, and divorce. As we approach this chapter, we are not looking for quick answers or rules. We are looking for how these instructions reflect the beauty and wisdom of God and lead us to deeper faith in Jesus.
1 Corinthians
Glorify God in Your Body
October 16, 2022
In these verses, Paul is telling us (in no uncertain terms) that our bodies matter. God gives more dignity and significance to our bodies than we could ever imagine. If we really believed what God says about our bodies, sexual sin would be unthinkable to us!

Settling Civil Disputes in the Church
October 9, 2022
When Christians act like the world acts — in this case, taking each other to court — we dishonor one another and we fail to show the world the wisdom of God and the power of the gospel.

Church Discipline
October 2, 2022
1 Corinthians 5 is one of the key passages in the Bible about church discipline. And it’s also one of the most-ignored, least-applied passages in the Bible. We have much to learn from this chapter about what it means to be the church and love one another well.
1 Corinthians
I Urge You to Imitate Me
September 25, 2022
So far, in contrast to worldly wisdom, Paul has been teaching the wisdom of the cross. But he doesn’t just teach the way of the cross with his words, he demonstrates it in how he lives. He points to himself and the other apostles as models to emulate. Because Paul knows we learn by imitation, by following an example. That’s how disciples are made!
1 Corinthians
The Church Belongs to God
September 18, 2022
The church belongs to God. He prepares work for us to do, he enables us to do it, and he causes the growth. That reality shapes how we view spiritual leaders, how we participate in the life of the church, and what we think the church is.
1 Corinthians
Wisdom From the Spirit
September 11, 2022
Popular thought is that wisdom is self-gained. If you work hard enough, if you get enough knowledge and experience, if you develop enough skill, you will become a wise person. But in 1 Corinthians 2, the apostle Paul flips this notion on its head. He challenges our definition of wisdom and points us to this truth: true wisdom is something you have to receive.

The Foolish Wisdom of the Gospel
September 4, 2022
One of the main problems in the Corinthian church is that they were living according to worldly wisdom. They were seeing the world just like the world sees the world. So, Paul reminds them of the wisdom of God found in the gospel. The foolish wisdom of the gospel turns our view of the world upside down.

Gluttony
March 15, 2026
Gluttony is a disordered desire for food or drink that drives us to excess and self-indulgence. The problem is not that we have appetites, but that we are controlled by them. When we remember that our citizenship is in heaven, we are able to enjoy food as a gift and experience it as a foretaste of the great feast to come.

Wrath
March 8, 2026
Wrath is anger gone wrong. It’s anger expressed in the wrong ways and it’s anger about the wrong things. When we hold onto this kind of anger, it is incredibly harmful. It’s harmful to us personally, harmful to others, and harmful to our relationship with God. How can we overcome this kind of anger and loosen its grip on our lives?
Genesis
Envy
February 22, 2026
Envy is rivalry and comparison gone off the rails. Envy produces sorrow over your neighbor’s success and joy over their misfortune. It’s so common it can be described as the oldest and most consistent source of relational strife in the Bible. The first sin out of are the garden is fueled by it. So, in this sermon we look at Cain’s story. What is envy? Why is it so deadly? How does Jesus free us from it?
Matthew
Vainglory
February 15, 2026
Vainglory is the excessive and disordered desire for recognition and approval from others. It’s such a common sin, even among the people of God, that Jesus confronts it directly in the Sermon on the Mount. Why is vainglory so deadly? And how does the gospel address it?

Seeking God in the Wilderness
January 4, 2026
Psalm 63 is David praying in the wilderness. And the amazing thing is how he prays. He doesn’t ask God to get him out of the wilderness, but he simply seeks God himself. And David ends up finding satisfaction and security right there in the wilderness. What if we made this our prayer for the new year? What if it was our prayer for all of life?

Trust in God Alone
December 28, 2025
Psalm 62 calls us to trust in God alone—resting in his character and relying on him at all times. Though we often place our trust in ourselves, others, or wealth, Jesus perfectly trusted the Father and delivers us from self-reliance.

Sabbath Rest
June 4, 2023
We live in a restless culture, where it’s hard to sit still, hard to turn it off, and hard to stop striving. It’s exhausting. Thankfully, God shows us that rest is part of being created in his image. He even sets apart a day of rest for us. But, we still struggle to rest. How can we practice rest and experience true rest of the soul?
