Sermons on John
When we think of Paul’s testimony, we often think of how he came to know Jesus. While this is a powerful aspect of Paul’s testimony, it certainly doesn’t stop there. Jesus not only radically changes Paul’s life, but He also changes his mission and sends him out to accomplish it.
Throughout the book of Acts we see Jesus passionately pursuing the lost beyond Israel, and calling, equipping, and sending His people to actively join this mission. Join us as we continue our study of Jesus’ work in and through His people in Acts.
We often think of Peter as the great apostolic leader, preacher, and biblical author. This, however, is not who Peter was when Jesus called him to come and follow Him. When we chronically look at the life and ministry of Peter in the gospels and Acts, we see a radically changed Peter whom Jesus transformed…
We all face difficulties and challenges in life that leave us looking for hope. But is there any real hope to be found in times of suffering? Join us as we look at this question in light of who Jesus is and what He alone offers.

Every organization has a mission and a purpose for why they exist and what they seek to accomplish. But what about the local church? Join us as we discuss the purpose, mission, vision, strategy, and core values of our local church, and why it all matters.
Servanthood played a powerful role in how Jesus developed disciples. He served His followers and called them to likewise go and serve as He has served them. The same applies to us today. We grow as we serve.
One of the ways the early church rapidly grew in size and impact was through the power of invitation, as followers of Jesus join His mission to invite others to come and see for themselves who Jesus is. We all have the ability to extend an invitation that could radically change lives.
Prayer is often thought of in terms of talking to God. But is that truly enough for a powerful prayer life, or does there need to be more to it?
Context plays a vital role in faithful interpretation. While we all know this, we often take for granted the various layers of context that are at work in each verse of scripture. This message builds upon what we’ve studied over the last two weeks on growing as faithful interpreters of God’s Word.
