Two Rides, Two Kings (1 Kings 1: 33-40; Luke 19:28-40)

Jesus was doing more than just traveling as he entered Jerusalem for the final time. He was making a statement to the crowd: I am King. 

Cultural Christianity vs. Radical Christianity (Matthew 19:16-22)

In the sermon today, Pastor Paul explores two portraits of Christianity as exemplified through the stories of the Rich Young Ruler and Elisha. These stories will lead us to the challenging question: Are you following Jesus, or have you invited Jesus to follow you?

Galatians - No Other Gospel (Galatians 6:11-6:18)

Galatians chapter 6 provides an example of how inward perspectives form outward actions. In Galatia, the Judaizers were allowing their flawed perspectives to shape their actions in ways contrary to the gospel. If unchecked, we have the potential to fall victim to the same pattern. We invite you to join Pastor Paul as he explores two specific perspectives that have the power to shape how we live out our Christian life.

Galatians - No Other Gospel (Galatians 5:26-6:10)

One of the major issues affecting the churches of Galatia was disunity. In the text today, Paul provides a seemingly simple process to help unify the body of believers. However, Paul’s remedy is a very sensitive and delicate process that involves restoring brothers and sisters who are caught in sin. We invite you to listen in and learn how to best restore our brothers and sisters for the glory of God.

Galatians - No Other Gospel (Galatians 5:16-26)

Paul says we are free from the law, but what do we do with that freedom? Paul says we cannot satisfy the desires of our flesh, but rather we are to walk by the Spirit and grow in Christlikeness.

Galatians - No Other Gospel (Galatians 5:1-15)

In Galatians 5, Paul challenges the churches of Galatia to see that it is possible to be set free but continue to live in bondage. In much of the same way, the church today struggles to live in the freedom Christ has secured, and like the world, we continue to experience anxiety, fear, guilt, depression, and weariness. So how do we as Christians gain freedom from this bondage? We encourage you to join in with us as we discover how to stand firm in the truth of the gospel and experience a yoke that brings rest!

Galatians - No Other Gospel (Galatians 4:21-31)

In this week’s passage from Galatians 4, the Apostle Paul provides a brilliant illustration using the story of Hagar and Sarah to help us clearly see the distinction between works of the flesh and faith in Christ. Join in to find out how Paul used this story to teach the churches of Galatia and discover ways that this story can guide us today.

Galatians - No Other Gospel (Galatians 4:8-20)

In Galatians chapter 4, Paul uses strong language to confront us with hard truths. The text invites us to ask questions like, Are we in or out? Do we want to live by his word, or do we want to live by the ways of the world? Do our lives revolve around the things of the world, or do they revolve around his kingdom and glory? Join us as we seek to gain clarity on these challenging concepts.

Galatians - No Other Gospel (Galatians 3:10-29)

Can we eat bacon? Is it permissible to get a tattoo? If salvation comes through faith, then what is the purpose of the law? If we have been set free from the law, does that mean we are no longer obligated to keep it? In today’s text, we will explore Galatians 3 and seek to discover the answers to these questions and many more.

Galatians - No Other Gospel (Galatians 2:15-3:9)

We may have heard about the common belief of justification by faith alone, which Paul addresses throughout the book of Galatians. However, James argues that a person is justified by works and not faith alone. In today’s text, we explore the relationship between the teachings of Paul and James to discover ways to fight against two distinct opponents.
