Trusting God During a Pandemic
March 23, 2020 21:37These have been strange days for our congregation (and every congregation). With so much uncertainty about the future, people need to trust the Anchor that holds, Jesus Christ, the Rock we stand upon. Psalm 20:7 Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God. Proverbs 3:5–6 Trust […]
Dishonorable Passions
March 18, 2018 10:30 - 44 minutes - 40.3 MBHomosexuality is wrong. Paul explains why in this text. It is a practice that runs contrary to nature, or the way God designed the world (the body) to work. How can Christians take a stance on this issue while also […]
God Gave Them Up
March 11, 2018 10:30One of the key ways God judges sin now is by allowing sinners to continue in their sin. He gives them up to it and allows them to suffer the horrible consequences of it. But even in this God is showing mercy. Often when sinners become miserable because of their rebellion, they begin looking for […]
The Terrible Exchange
March 04, 2018 10:30People are very much focused on light. Our houses are full of bulbs and are automobiles have high beams. Why do we love and need light so much? In Romans 1:21, Paul says that sinful people have foolish hearts that are darkened. In their darkness, they have “exchanged the glory of God” for idols (v. […]
The Expectant Church
February 25, 2018 10:30Youth Pastor Chris Sanford challenged our congregation to be an expectant church. What does this mean and how can we become that kind of church? These and other questions are addressed in this message. 1 Thessalonians 1:1-10 Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, To the church of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus […]
Loving God with All Your Mind
February 11, 2018 10:30Jesus commanded us to love God with our minds (Matt. 22:37-38). Yet many Christians feel that faith has nothing to do with good thinking and everything to do with exuberant experience. But why should these two be separated? If we abandon the careful and sustained use of our minds, we will be no better than […]
Loves Out of Whack
February 04, 2018 10:30Given our knowledge of God from creation, every single human being should be on fire for God. We should constantly glorify him with our thoughts, words, and actions. We should be sold-out fully and committed on the deepest heart-level. He should be our first love, and our love for him should be consistent with every […]
What Can Be Known about God Is Plain
January 28, 2018 10:30In Romans 1, Paul makes the case that God’s eternal nature and divine power can be deduced by thoughtfully asking “How did all this get here?” When we look at the size and scope of the universe and the complexities of human life, we can deduce that God must exist and that he must be […]
Why We Should Be Happy that God Is Angry
January 21, 2018 10:30It’s unpopular these days to proclaim the wrath of God. But true gospel preaching isn’t concerned about popularity. It’s concerned with truth. According to Romans 1:18, God’s wrath is poured out from heaven against ungodliness and unrighteousness. In this sermon, we explore what it means that God is angry. Ironically, his anger is something that […]
Put Your Trust in the Lord
January 21, 2018 10:30A message from youth minister Chris Sanford urging people to put their trust in the Lord. Jeremiah 17:5-8 Thus says the Lord: “Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength, whose heart turns away from the Lord. He is like a shrub in the desert, and shall not see any good […]
The Righteousness of God
January 14, 2018 10:30Sharing righteousness is not a concept most people are familiar with, but it is a gospel concept. In the gospel, the righteousness of God has been revealed, and his righteousness can be transferred to the accounts of guilty sinners. This is what happens when a person is saved by God, which means it is a […]
The Gospel (Part 4): What Do You Believe about Believing?
January 07, 2018 10:30With a bit of thought, anyone can tell the difference between belief and trust. Though you can’t trust something without believing it, you can believe something without trusting it. You can believe that a doctor is world-class in his skills, but unless you actually take the medication he prescribes you, then you don’t trust him. […]
The Birth of Christ Satisfies Your Desire for Transcendence
December 24, 2017 10:30Everybody loves the feeling of being near higher, transcendent realities.

But God created us with this desire for transcendence so that we might find satisfaction […]

The Gospel (Part 3): Wield the Gospel as the Power of God
December 10, 2017 10:30The gospel is the dynamic force that saves the guilty soul. Christians must become more aware of the power of God that infuses the gospel message. Romans 1:15-17 So I am eager to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome. For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the […]
The Gospel (Part 2): Don’t Be Ashamed of the Gospel
December 03, 2017 10:30Shame is that horrible and painful feeling we get when embarrassed. Paul declared in Romans 1:16 that he didn’t feel that way when it came to the gospel. Neither should we. How can boast in the gospel instead of feeling ashamed of it? Romans 1:15-17 So I am eager to preach the gospel to you also […]
Christ Is Supreme Over Salvation
November 26, 2017 10:34A message from Colossians 1:21-23 by Youth Director Chris Sanford. Though people are naturally evil, Christ came to restore us and save us.

The Sacred Obligation of Every Christian
November 12, 2017 17:09Soldiers feel a strong sense of obligation to carry out their duties. They are willing to lay their lives on the line in order to fulfill their calling.
