The Shepherd’s Heart
April 21, 2024 15:30Welcome to Chapel City Church! We are so glad that you have come to worship with us today. We want to be a congregation that prays for one another, and with one another. If there is a way that we can be praying specifically for you, we would love to know that. Please reach out to our church office via phone or email. Prayer is one of the ways that we practically show our love for one another. And as […]
Sons or Slaves?
April 14, 2024 15:30Good morning, and welcome to Chapel City Church. We are so glad that you have joined us for our time of worship together. We would love to know how we can be praying specifically for you, so please fill out a connection card or email our church office with specific requests. This week we will open up the first part of Galatians chapter 4. Our bibles have chapter and verse breaks that help us locate passages easily. But it’s important to […]
The Purpose of the Law
April 07, 2024 15:30Welcome to Chapel City Church! We are so glad that you’ve joined us for worship this morning. We would love to know how we can be in prayer for you and your family. Please take the time to update one of the connection cards in your bulletin, and drop it off in the offering box or hand it to an usher. After a brief break for Good Friday and Easter, we are back in the book of Galatians. As we come […]
Jesus Christ, Our Living Hope
March 31, 2024 15:31Welcome to Chapel City Church! Today we celebrate the high point of our year, the cornerstone of our Christian faith. Today, we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ! Our songs are joyful, and rightly so. Our hearts are lifted to hope and thanksgiving, and rightly so! And today, we want to take time to reflect on this Jesus that we worship. When he came to the earth that he created, he clothed himself in humility. But what is Jesus like now? […]
Good Friday
March 30, 2024 00:30Welcome to our Good Friday celebration here at Chapel City Church. Although coming together on Good Friday is common and even traditional, maybe some of you wonder why we bother. After all, we know the end of the story! Jesus Christ is crucified and buried, but he is resurrected to life three days later. That wonderful truth drives our Easter celebrations. So why pause in the darkness of Friday when we anticipate the light of Sunday? The answer comes back to our […]
Sola Fide: Faith Alone!
March 24, 2024 15:30Welcome to Chapel City Church! We are glad that you are here, and we would love to know how we can be praying specifically for you. If you have a prayer request, a question about the church, or need information on a specific ministry, feel free to contact us through phone or email. This week we will move into Galatians chapter 3. After confronting Peter about his hypocrisy in avoiding gentile believers, Paul turns his full attention back to the […]
Gospel Conflict
March 17, 2024 15:30Welcome to Chapel City Church! We are working through the book of Galatians, and the major theme has been the gospel message. We have seen that it is a singular gospel; there is no other message that brings salvation. We have seen the origins of the gospel. It is not a man-made path to God, but a revelation of the person and work of Jesus Christ. And we have seen the unity that the gospel brings. Because the church has […]
Gospel Unity
March 10, 2024 15:30 - 45 MBWelcome to Chapel City Church. We are glad that you have joined us for worship today, and we would love to know how we can be praying for you. This week we will move into Galatians chapter 2. In the first chapter, Paul made a clear case that the gospel that he preached did not come from human imagination or intuition. He even pointed out that after his conversion he did not immediately seek out the other disciples for their input […]
Gospel Origins
March 03, 2024 16:30 - 42.8 MBThank you for joining us here at Chapel City Church. We would love the opportunity to answer any questions that you might have, or to know how we can be praying specifically for you. Please feel free to reach out to us through email, or a phone call to the church office. Today we will continue through the first chapter in the Book of Galatians. Last week, we saw the unique nature of the gospel, and this week we will […]
Gospel Singularity
February 25, 2024 16:30 - 41.6 MBWelcome to Chapel City Church! We are thankful that you have joined us for our time of corporate worship today. We are moving into our study of the Book of Galatians, and Paul wastes no time getting to his point. After his very brief introduction, he expresses his shock at their abandonment of the gospel message. They have apparently been pulled away by teaching that attempts to combine grace and the law, saying that salvation is completed by the works […]
Finally Free
February 18, 2024 16:30 - 43.3 MBThank you for joining us for our time of worship here at Chapel City Church! Today we open up a new book that we will work through together in the coming months. Galatians has been referred to by some pretty lofty terms – “The Magna Carta of Christian Liberty,” “The Charter of Christian Freedom,” and other titles that hint at it’s great importance. In only six chapters, the apostle Paul provides clarity on the gospel message, and defends the eternal […]
Can I Trust God?
February 11, 2024 16:30 - 46.1 MBWelcome to Chapel City Church. We are glad that you are here, and we would love to know how we can be praying for you specifically. As we open God’s word together this week, we will come to the end of our study of the Minor Prophets. Malachi is the last book in our Old Testament, and the final word of God to his people before 400 years of silence. As God makes statements to his people, the prophet anticipates […]
The Last Warning
February 04, 2024 16:30 - 43.9 MBWelcome to Chapel City Church. We are so glad that you have joined us for our time of worship today. We would love to know how we can be praying for you, or if there are any questions that we can answer. Please reach out to the office, or feel free to fill out one of our connection cards. Today we will begin working through the last of the minor prophets. Malachi writes just over 400 years before the birth […]
Your Kingdom Come…
January 28, 2024 16:30 - 43.7 MBGood morning, and welcome to our time of worship here at Chapel City Church. Today we will come to the end of the Book of Zechariah as we near the end of our journey through the Minor Prophets. This wonderful book concludes with a sweeping picture of the Lord as a king coming to establish his kingdom. On that day, he will overcome the hatred of his people Israel and defeat their gathered enemies. On that day there will signs in […]
Israel: Rescued & Refined
January 21, 2024 16:30 - 40.7 MBWelcome to Chapel City Church. Whether this is your church home, or you are worshipping with us for the first time, we are glad that you are here! We would love the opportunity to answer any questions that you might have, or to know how we can be specifically praying for you. This week we will be in Zechariah 12 and 13. As we move into the final oracle of the book, we see that the word of the Lord […]
The Good Shepherd: Revealed & Rejected
January 14, 2024 16:30 - 45.7 MBWelcome to our time of worship here at Chapel City Church. This Sunday we will continue working though the oracles that close the book of Zechariah. The first one is found in chapters 9,10, and 11. Last week in chapter 9 we saw the promise of two kings who would come. One came in judgment, the other came in perfection. This week, we will work through chapters 9 and 10 that tell us about the good shepherd promised to Israel. What […]
Kings & Kingdoms
January 07, 2024 16:30 - 41 MBGood morning, and welcome to Chapel City Church. This week, please be in prayer for our middle school and high school students as they attend their winter retreat. Our hope is that they will grow in their relationship with the Lord and in their relationships with one another during this time away. As we open God’s word, we come back to the writing of the prophet Zechariah. Chapter 9 moves us forward in time toward the end of the prophet’s […]
Why Are We Here?
December 31, 2023 16:30 - 47.6 MBWelcome to Chapel City Church! We are on the threshold of another year, and it’s a wonderful time to consider all that God has done for us. Through joy and sorrow, plenty and need, he has sustained and provided for us as individuals and as a church. But what does it mean to be a church? What are we supposed to do? What are we supposed to be? As we step into 2024, we are going to spend our morning focusing […]
Name Above All Names
December 24, 2023 16:30 - 21.4 MBMerry Christmas, and welcome to Chapel City Church! We are so glad that you have come to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ with us. Perhaps this is your first time in church, or your first time in a long time. Know that we are thankful that you are here, and that we would love the opportunity to answer any questions that you might have. We believe that Christmas is more than a time of family gatherings and goodwill. This […]
The Greatest Gift
December 17, 2023 16:30 - 41.2 MBWelcome to Chapel City Church! As we prepare to celebrate the wonder of Christmas, we want to turn our eyes toward the greatest gift ever given. Although we rejoice in the birth of Christ all year long, there is a special significance to this time of year. We remember the journey to Bethlehem, the manger, and the shepherds. We remember angels singing and a young mother treasuring these things in her heart. But this week, we are going to consider the […]
The Lord Remembers: Giving Acceptable Gifts
December 10, 2023 16:30 - 39 MBThank you for being with us today. Here at Chapel City Church, we want to be a people who pray with and for one another. If there is something that we can be praying about specifically, please reach out and let us know. As we approach Christmas, many of us have gift-giving on our minds. But how do we know what gifts people will appreciate? On an eternally more important scale, how do we know what gifts God will accept? […]
The Lord Remembers: Prophetic Pictures, part 4
December 03, 2023 16:30 - 43.2 MBWelcome to Chapel City Church! We are so glad that you’ve joined us for our time of worship today. We are working our way through the minor prophets, and we have come to the book of Zechariah. His name means “The Lord Remembers,” and that is a fitting description of the theme of the book. So far, God has given his prophet seven visions of what is to come for his people Israel, and for the nations. Today we will look […]
The Lord Remembers: Prophetic Pictures, part 3
November 26, 2023 16:30 - 46.7 MBWelcome to Chapel City Church. We hope that you had a wonderful Thanksgiving, and that every day of the year brings reminders of God’s abundant provision and faithfulness. One of the precious gifts that God has given us is his word. It’s through the scriptures that we learn the truth of who God is, and how he has reconciled us to himself through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. This morning, we are going to continue through the book of Zechariah. […]
The Lord Remembers: Prophetic Pictures, part 2
November 19, 2023 16:30 - 52.2 MBWelcome to Chapel City Church. Today we are going to work through the next two visions given to the prophet Zechariah. God is revealing his plan for his people and the nations. But if those plans involve the physical restoration and exultation of God’s people, then what must happen first? How can God bless a people who have proven themselves to be stubborn and rebellious? These next two visions answer not only what the future will hold for Jerusalem, but […]
The Lord Remembers: Prophetic Pictures, part 1
November 12, 2023 16:30 - 35.9 MBThank you for joining us here at Chapel City Church. We would love to know how we can be praying for you, so please feel free to reach out to us with any specific needs or requests. As we move through the rest of Zechariah 1 today, we will encounter the first two visions that God gives his prophet. But how should we understand them? Are they for that people in that time, or should we try to find some universal […]
The Lord Remembers
November 05, 2023 16:31 - 33.6 MBWelcome to Chapel City Church. As we come together to sing, to study, and to minister to one another, we want to know how we can be praying for you! Please reach out to us with any questions or prayer requests. As we open God’s word together this morning, we will begin working our way through the book of Zechariah. Although he is one of the longest of the minor prophets, Zechariah is also one of the most overlooked. His […]
Making Sense of the Middle East
October 29, 2023 15:30 - 46.1 MBThank you for being with us today. Here at Chapel City Church, we gather together to worship our great God through song, study, giving, and serving one another. If you have any questions, or if there is a way that we can be praying for you specifically, please reach out and let us know. Today we will try to make sense of the Middle East. We will look at the biographical, geographical, and spiritual significance of this area. For I know […]
Consider Your Ways, Part 2: Pitfalls on the Path
October 22, 2023 15:30 - 44 MBThank you for being with us today. Here at Chapel City Church, we gather together to worship our great God through song, study, giving, and serving one another. If you have any questions, or if there is a way that we can be praying for you specifically, please reach out and let us know. Today we will finish the book of Haggai. The prophet has challenged the people to consider their ways. They must give careful attention to the path that […]
Consider Your Ways – Part 1: Disordered Priorities
October 15, 2023 15:30 - 43.7 MBWelcome to Chapel City Church! As we gather together to worship the Lord through song and study of his word, we also want to know how we can be praying for you. Please use the connection cards, your phone, or an email to let us know how our prayer team can be specifically praying for you this week. Today we come to a new minor prophet- The Book of Haggai. It’s been a hundred years since Zephaniah wrote, and the […]
From Ruin to Restoration
October 08, 2023 15:30 - 45.8 MBWelcome to Chapel City Church! We are thankful that you have joined us for our time of worship this week, and we would love to know how we can be praying for you. If you have any questions or prayer requests, please reach out and let us know. This week we will close the Book of Zephaniah. What does it look like to live a life of rebellion against God? Whether Jew or Gentile, ancient or modern, the marks are the […]
Where Will You Hide?
October 01, 2023 15:30 - 33.2 MBWelcome to Chapel City Church! We are so glad that you have joined us today for our time of worship. As we open God’s word together, we are coming to a turning point in the minor prophets. Today we will begin the book of Zephaniah, one of the least familiar books in our Old Testament. But Zephaniah represents a turning point in Israel’s history. Each of the minor prophets through Zephaniah writes in anticipation of the coming judgment of Assyria […]
Responding to Righteousness
September 24, 2023 15:30 - 40.2 MBWelcome to our time of worship here at Chapel City Church! We would love to answer any questions that you might have, and to know how we can be praying for you. This week will bring us to the conclusion of Habakkuk. It’s a wonderful little book that we don’t know as well as we should. In Chapter 1, Habakkuk posed some serious questions to the Lord that he served. Did God still care, and was he right in his […]
Righteousness Revealed
September 17, 2023 15:30 - 38.9 MBWelcome to Chapel City Church! As we gather together for our time of corporate worship, we also want to know how we can be praying for you as an individual or a family. If there is a need that we can surround with prayer, or perhaps even come alongside in a practical way, please reach out and let us know. A great way to do that is by filling out the connection card in your bulletin and handing it to an […]
When God Stands Against You
September 03, 2023 15:30 - 35 MBWelcome to Chapel City Church! We are so glad that you have joined us for our time of worship today. Last week, we opened the book of Nahum and saw the promise of God to deal with the sins of Nineveh. Because he is holy, because he is just, God cannot ignore sin. He will deal with the sins of Israel and Judah as his people, but he will also deal with the sins of the nations. As we move […]
The Fire & The Flood
August 27, 2023 15:30 - 38.6 MBWelcome to our time of worship together here at Chapel City Church. We are glad that you have joined us, and we would love to know how we can be praying for you.

From Guilt to Glory: Hope in Hopeless Times
August 20, 2023 15:30 - 43.6 MBWelcome to Chapel City Church. Thank you for joining us for our time of corporate worship. We would love to know how we can be praying specifically for you or coming alongside you, so please reach out to us with any questions or needs. As we conclude the Book of Micah this morning, we will encounter a prophet in distress. Micah is living during a wicked time and living among a wicked people. He has revealed the righteous judgement of God, […]
Living in Light of the Day
August 13, 2023 15:30 - 40.2 MBto worship with us today. If there are questions that you have, or things that we can be praying for, we would love to talk with you! “Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved.” The amazing thing about the gospel, indeed a stumbling block for many, is the truth that Jesus saves us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy. He calls us to believe in him, to trust […]
From Guilt to Glory: Closing Arguments
August 06, 2023 15:30 - 41.9 MBWelcome to Chapel City Church. We are so glad that you’ve come to worship with us today. If there are questions that you have, or things that we can be praying for, we would love to talk with you! This week we will work through Micah 6, and we will see God make his case against his people. Israel and Judah are wicked and rebellious. As the Lord speaks through his prophet, he calls on his people to look back […]
From Guilt to Glory: Christmas in July
July 30, 2023 15:45 - 41.9 MBWelcome to Chapel City Church! We are so glad that you’ve joined us for our time of worship this morning. We are working our way through the Minor Prophets; a series of short books with major truths that we need to understand. As we come to Micah 5, we are in one of the few well-known passages from this understudied book. We have seen that Jerusalem will come under judgement because of the people’s sin. We have also seen God’s promise […]
Called to Serve
July 23, 2023 15:30 - 36.5 MBThank you for joining us for our time of worship here at Chapel City Church. We hope that as we sing, study, and fellowship together that you are encouraged in your walk with Christ. We would love to answer any questions that you might have, and to know how we can be praying for you. Today we seek to understand and hopefully, simplify the concept of what it takes to live godly, Spirit-filled lives. It is vital that we understand […]
From Guilt to Glory: Following the Leader
July 16, 2023 15:45 - 46.9 MBThank you for joining us for our time of worship here at Chapel City Church. We hope that as we sing, study, and fellowship together that you are encouraged in your walk with Christ. We would love to answer any questions that you might have, and to know how we can be praying for you. As we continue through the book of Micah, we are faced with two radically different pictures of leadership. On the one hand are the failed […]
From Guilt to Glory: Opening Arguments
July 09, 2023 15:00 - 47 MBWelcome to Chapel City Church. Whether you are a visitor or a regular attender, we are happy to have you with us this morning. If there are ways that we can be praying for you, we would love to know! Please reach out to us through a connection card, phone call, or email with any needs, questions, or concerns. This week we will open the next book in our series on the minor prophets. Micah isn’t well known to most of […]
Sovereign Grace: The Unanswered Question
July 02, 2023 14:33 - 41.9 MBThank you for joining us for our time of corporate worship here at Chapel City Church! As we come to the end of the Book of Jonah, we are confronted once again with Jonah’s rebellion against God. When he was in the belly of the great fish, he called out to God for deliverance and salvation. He trusted that God was both willing and able to save him from his dire circumstances. After he was rescued, he presented the message […]
Sovereign Grace: When Rebels Repent
June 26, 2023 03:00 - 34.4 MBWelcome to Chapel City Church! We are so glad that you are joining us for our time of worship today. As we work our way through the Book of Jonah, God’s sovereign grace has been on display. We see his power and his grace as he calls his prophet, as he sends a storm, as he demonstrates his power to pagan sailors, and as he rescues his wayward messenger from the depths of the sea. As we turn the page […]
Sovereign Grace: A Song of Salvation
June 18, 2023 15:00 - 42.8 MBWelcome to Chapel City Church! The book of Jonah highlights the sovereign grace of God. Last week we found the prophet Jonah disobediently running away from God and stubbornly refusing to yield—even in the face of a supernatural storm. Justice says that Jonah being cast into the sea should have been the end of him. But the LORD had other plans. What looks like judgement is sometimes grace and mercy in disguise. In Jonah chapter 2 we will see the […]
Sovereign Grace: Running from God
June 11, 2023 15:00 - 42.4 MBGood morning, and welcome to Chapel City Church! This morning we will open the book of Jonah together as we continue on our journey through the minor prophets. Many of us are at least somewhat familiar with the story of Jonah. It’s one of those biblical narratives that makes its way into every Sunday School curriculum, and even into popular culture. But what is the message of Jonah? Is it just the tale of a reluctant prophet and a big […]
God of the Nations
June 04, 2023 15:00 - 42.1 MBWelcome to our time of worship together here at Chapel City Church. We are so glad that you are here, and we would love the opportunity to answer any questions that you might have, and to know how we can be praying for you! This morning we will open the book of Obadiah together. Although it’s the shortest book in the minor prophets (and the whole Old Testament), it has an important message for us. Through his prophet, God is […]
Correction & Kindness
May 28, 2023 15:00 - 47.5 MBThank you for joining us for our time of worship here at Chapel City Church. As we close the book of Amos, we are going to see the fullness of God’s justice and mercy. Because he is holy, sin must be dealt with. Amos takes us through the failures of Israel as they refuse to submit to what God has called them to be and to do. They do religious things, but their god is money and comfort. They have […]
Prophetic Pictures
May 21, 2023 15:00 - 47.4 MBThis week we will continue our journey through the book of Amos as we study chapters 7 and 8. By this point, we know that the minor prophets in general have a lot to say about judgment. But it can be easy to focus on the judgment and forget the tremendous mercy of God. As the Lord gives Amos a series of visions, he demonstrates both his patience and his justice. Israel will be judged, and judged rightly for her […]
How Thankful Are You?
May 14, 2023 15:00 - 45.7 MBThank you for joining us here at Chapel City church for our time of corporate worship. As a church, we are committed to praying for the needs of others. If there is a way that we can be praying for you, please let us know! This Sunday morning, we welcome Nathan and Jena Ream, and their kids as they candidate for the Youth & Family Pastor position. Today we will hear from Nathan about his walk with the Lord and a […]
