Christ-Centered Contentment
June 20, 2021
Contentment is an elusive thing. As soon as we think we are content, it quickly vanishes. Is contentment even possible? In Phil. 4, the apostle Paul says that it is. In fact, he says that he has learned to be content no matter the situation.

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.
John
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

I Have Come As Light

James
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.
James
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?

Luke
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

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!
Psalms
Deliverance from Fear

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
October 9, 2022

Adoption as Sons
September 2, 2018
God is filling his people with his life and filling the world with his people. We need bigger thoughts about God, truer thoughts about who we are, a fresh experience of God’s power, and a compelling vision for life with God in this world.
