Be Merciful to Me a Sinner
July 3, 2022
When we have made a mess of our things, the consequences can feel overwhelming. We want to fix it. Or maybe we just want to crawl in a hole. The good news is that even when we have sinned and made a mess of our lives, we can still turn to God. Psalm 38 shows us how.

Praying Through Our Fears

David does not downplay his fear, nor does he let it take over. Instead, he prays through his fear in the presence of God. Psalm 3 shows us how we can do this too.

The Psalms Speak for Us
June 5, 2022
The great 4th century bishop Athanasius said, “Most of scripture speaks to us, but the Psalms speak for us.” How do the Psalms help us speak to God, speak about ourselves, and speak about Christ? How do they teach us to pray and worship in such a way that the word of Christ richly dwells within us? This summer we’re going to be in Psalms, exploring this wonderful musical prayer book together.
Luke
Shrewd Stewardship
May 29, 2022
This parable is confusing, because Jesus seems to be commending a con-artist. How could this dishonest money manager possibly be an example for us? Jesus, the master teacher, uses this surprising parable to give us some much-needed guidance for how to steward money.
Luke
Rich Toward God
May 22, 2022
Jesus shows us two ways to live. One is to lay up treasure for yourself. The other is to be rich toward God. If you want to know where your heart is, follow the money.

The Love of Money
May 15, 2022
Money can have so much power in our lives that we’re willing to bow down and serve it. But the scary thing is that we’re usually blind to this; we don’t see it in ourselves. How can we recognize the love of money in our lives? And how can we change?

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?
Psalms
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.

I Came to Testify to the Truth
December 21, 2025
In this Advent sermon from John 18:33–38, Jesus declares the purpose of his birth: to bear witness to it. Jesus is the fulfillment of God’s promises and the truth that stands over every moment of our lives.

I Came to Do the Will of the Father

John
I Have Come As Light

John
I Came That They May Have Life
November 30, 2025
Advent is season celebrating the coming of Jesus and longing for him to come again. And we learn a lot about why Jesus came from what he reveals about himself. In this passage, he tells us who he is, what he came to do, and how he did it.

Bring Back the Wanderer
November 23, 2025
We are all capable of drifting from God and community, so we must watch out for one another. We are all responsible to bring back the wanderer. When we do this, we join the work of the good Shepherd who leaves the 99 to go after the one.
James
Faith and Prayer
November 16, 2025
As James closes his letter, the number one thing on his mind is prayer. Which makes sense, because prayer might be the main application of everything he’s been writing. True faith expresses itself through prayer.

Establish Your Heart in the End of the Story
November 10, 2025
James calls us to be long-suffering—to endure injustice, pain, and grief without losing hope. That kind of patience doesn’t come from calm apps or techniques; it comes from knowing how the story ends.

The Gospel Preserved for You
September 6, 2020
The gospel is not only the gateway to our life with God. It is also the pathway for our life with him. We are prone to add other things that give us a sense of assurance or belonging, but Jesus plus anything else is a false gospel.

Who Belongs at the Table?

Our Comfort and Redemption
January 2, 2022
We are made to be satisfied with God, but we are constantly looking elsewhere. Simeon and Anna show us a better way: look to Jesus and wait for him. Wherever you are in life, be ready to welcome his presence. Take hold of him and rejoice, for he is our comfort and redemption.

The Glory of God and the Good of Others

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.

Settling Civil Disputes in the Church

Matthew
At Home With God
May 7, 2017
Sex is good, but it is not a good god. Our culture says, “go for it,” and the church often says, “wait for it.” Both views suggest that “it” is the goal – a loving relationship with good sex. The Bible paints a different picture: the goal is God!
Galatians
Adoption as Sons
September 2, 2018
