Lord of the Sabbath
October 13, 2024
There has been increasing tension in Mark between Jesus and the religious leaders. By the end of this passage, they are plotting to kill him. What pushes them over the edge are two incidents related to the Sabbath, specifically what Jesus says about the Sabbath and does on the Sabbath.

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?

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

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
