Episodes
The Sinking Saint and the Saving Lord
We all place our faith in something. We often step out confidently, only to focus on terrifying circumstances that expose our dangerous illusion of self-sufficiency. The gospel reveals a Savior who absorbed the ultimate storm of judgment so he could catch us when we fail. In this sermon, we explore Matthew 14:22-36 and how trusting the Lord of the storm with our "little-faith" turns our desperate
The Tale of Two Banquets | Matthew 14:1-21
Every human being wrestles with the exhausting concern for what others think. We chase worldly status only to end up enslaved by the opinions of an ever-watching audience. The gospel invites us to a radically different table, hosted by a compassionate King — we need only bring our lack. In this sermon, we explore Matthew 14:1-21 and how the gospel frees us from the fear of man to rest in God’s sat
To Be Human: Story | Acts 22:2-16
Human beings are story-formed people. There’s a story that has formed you; and there’s a story (the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus) that can transform you. In this sermon we consider the life of the Apostle Paul as narrated in Acts 22 to learn how the good grace of Jesus comes to meet us in the midst of our life story.
To Be Human: Purpose | Gen. 1:26-28 & 1 Cor. 10:31
What are we here for? A meaningful life requires a satisfying answer to that question. In this sermon we explore the purposes for which God created the world and consider why “the chief end of man is to glorify God and enjoy him forever.”
To Be Human: Obligations | Luke 10:25-37
We live in a world that envisions freedom as the absence of obligations. But it turns out that our deepest freedom comes from embracing duty and responsibility. In this sermon we explore Parable of the Good Samaritan (Luke 11), where Jesus shows us the human goodness of fulfilling our duties and obligations toward our neighbors.
To Be Human: Glory & Limits | Psalm 8
What does it mean to be human? Psalm 8 answers this question by portraying human beings as both glorious and limited. God has “crowned us with glory and honor” as persons made in his image. He has also made us “a little lower than the angels,” reminding us that we are finite and limited. In this sermon we explore the wisdom of Psalm 8 to discover how embracing both our glory and our limits is key
The Path to Renewal | Psalm 85
Seasons of spiritual dryness are a familiar experience for God's people. We often respond to these seasons by quietly going numb, settling for empty routines while hoping something changes. In this sermon, we explore Psalm 85 and discover how looking to the cross — where God's perfect righteousness and peace embrace — sets us free to actively seek renewal.
How Lovely is Your Dwelling Place | Psalm 84
All of us long to BE someplace. Psalm 84 shows us the place we're meant to be is in the presence of God. So why don't we long for God's presence like we ought? And how can we awaken a deeper longing? In this sermon, we explore Psalm 84's invitation to long for God's dwelling place, and we discover how Jesus fulfills this Psalm and brings us near to God.
God Judges His Enemies | Psalm 83
Everyone has enemies. Opposition is part of what it means to be human in a broken world. In this sermon, we look at Psalm 83 and its stark call for God to judge his enemies. We learn how God’s justice frees us to radically forgive and love others—remembering that Christ died to save us while we were still His enemies.
Doing Justice | Psalm 82
Every human being is entrusted with some level of authority, yet we frequently distort this gift by judging others based on our own feelings and preferences. Until God finally arises to "judge the earth," we are called to judge justly, and Psalm 82 shows us how. In this sermon, we explore what it means to do justice in the world.
A Better Life Liturgy | Psalm 81
Our daily lives are full of habits and routines that shape who we are becoming. To say it another way: we are liturgical creatures. Some of our life patterns are good; others aren't. In this sermon, we explore Psalm 81's invitation to build a better life liturgy: one that sings to God, tells His story, and submits to His authority.
Restore Us, O God! | Psalm 80
Every human being understands the longing to be seen. As Curt Thompson says, “We are all born into this world looking for someone looking for us.” In this sermon, we explore Psalm 80 and its plea to God: "let your face shine that we may be saved." We discover how longing for God's face to shine upon us finds its perfect, saving resolution in the ultimate Shepherd and True Vine, Jesus Christ.
Us, Them, and You: The Problem of Justice | Psalm 79
One of the biggest problems in the world is the problem of "us" versus "them". Our human tendency is to respond to injustice by seeking retribution against our enemies. In this sermon, we explore Psalm 79, written after enemies had destroyed Jerusalem. The Psalm shows us how shifting our gaze from “them” to “us” to "you, O God" empowers us to seek justice while also loving our e
Ruthlessly Realistic | Psalm 78
It's easy to present a curated version of our lives. We often go through the motions, aiming our devotion at worldly idols and missing the profound grace given to those who stop pretending. In this sermon, we explore Psalm 78 and how being ruthlessly realistic about our hearts and lives is the only way to experience the relentless mercy and transforming grace of God.
In The Day of Trouble | Psalm 77
Every human being has troubles. And sometimes our troubles overwhelm us. We live in a culture that encourages us to turn inward and endlessly process our troubles, yet this self-focused rumination often distorts our theology and leaves us doubting God's goodness. In this sermon, we look at how Psalm 77 calls God’s people to shift their gaze from their own internal pain to God's steady faithfulness
Fear God, Fear Nothing | Psalm 76
Whether we admit it or not, every human being is prone to fear. We often let the fear of what others think or of what we might lose shape our decisions and responses. In this sermon, we explore Psalm 76 and how cultivating a right fear of God is the only way to stop fearing everything else.
Living Life Backward | Psalm 75
Whether it be graduation, tax day, or an important holiday, human beings intuitively understand what it means to live in light of a coming date on the calendar. In Psalm 75, God declares that he has appointed a day when he will judge with equity. In this sermon, we explore how living backward from the certainty of Judgment Day sets us free to walk in humility and hope.
Christianity Is Personal | Galatians 2:20
Every human being wants a framework for a good life, often reducing faith to simply being a moral person, holding the right beliefs, or belonging to a community. But when our willpower fails or our doubts creep in, these superficial definitions leave us exhausted. The gospel subverts our striving by inviting us into a deeply personal union with Christ, where our old, corrupted self is crucified so
Three Ways to Reject Jesus | Matthew 13:53-58
Familiarity with Jesus is not the same thing as following Jesus. Human beings love what is familiar. But familiarity can lead to complacency and apathy. The people of Jesus' hometown missed the miraculous power of God because they couldn't see past the ordinary carpenter they grew up with. In this sermon, we examine three ways to reject Jesus and what it means to actually receive his gracious auth
What Is a Disciple? | Matthew 13:51-52
Every human being is a disciple or a learner, constantly shaped and trained by the culture around us — from the algorithms on our phones to the expectations of our family of origin or careers. True discipleship, however, requires actively submitting ourselves to the training of Jesus, allowing him to shape our understanding so we can bring out the treasure of his truth to a hungry world. In this s
Fish, Nets, & Judgement Day | Matthew 13:47-50
Being in the church is not the same thing as being in God's kingdom.
Everyone sorts. Whether it’s laundry, your recycling, or the people you spend time with, most of us have a deep-rooted instinct to sort the things in our lives. Through the parable of the net, Jesus warns that this period of grace will eventually give way to a final sorting. In this sermon, we explore the importance of responding
The Irresistible Kingdom | Matthew 13:44-46
The kingdom of heaven is irresistible to those who find it.
We all seek something — a career, a relationship, or status — that makes life's sacrifices feel worthwhile and brings us joy. But when we glimpse the incomparable value of Jesus, "selling everything" no longer feels like a sacrifice; it becomes irresistible. In this sermon, we examine the parables of the hidden treasure and the pearl of g
Hopeful Realism | Matthew 13:24-43
Jesus invites us into a life of hopeful realism.
To be human is to wrestle with the presence of evil in a world we wish were different. We often feel an urgent pressure to "fix" the world by taking matters into our own hands. Yet Jesus, through the parable of the wheat and weeds, offers a path of hopeful realism. In this sermon, we explore the nature of hopeful realism as the kingdom develops from
The Parable of the Sower | Matthew 13:1-23
A fruitful life comes from standing under the word of God.
Every human is listening to someone or something. And how we listen to the word of God makes all the difference. In this sermon, we explore Jesus' famous Parable of the Sower, which shows what happens when the seed of the gospel lands on the soil of our hearts. In this parable, Jesus teaches that a fruitful life comes from standing under t
Resurrection Hope | 1 Corinthians 15:17-20
The resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead is the ground of all Christian hope.
Because Jesus conquered death, we will too — that's the conviction that has unified and strengthened Christians around the world and across the ages. In this Easter 2026 sermon, we examine what 1 Corinthians 15 reveals about the implications of Jesus' resurrection.
Three Ways of Relating to Jesus | Matthew 12:38-50
How should we relate to Jesus? Not by holding out or cleaning up, but by drawing near.
Not everyone who knows ABOUT Jesus knows Jesus. It's possible to be religious, to know the Bible, to participate in church activities — and still remain outside God's family. In Matthew 12, religious leaders demand signs from Jesus, yet they miss what's right in front of them. In this sermon, we explore three di
A House Divided | Matthew 12:22-37
Neutrality is not an option.
Neutrality about Jesus is impossible. Every human being wants to keep their options open, to stay uncommitted, to avoid making ultimate decisions. But in Matthew 12, Jesus heals a demon-possessed man and declares that whoever is not with him is against him. In this sermon, we explore the inescapable reality that because Jesus is King, neutrality is not an option — we m
The Freedom of Jesus’ Lordship | Matthew 12:1-21
Coming to Jesus means repenting and resting.
Freedom and authority seem like opposites, but they're not. We assume that submitting to a master means losing our freedom, yet the opposite is true. In this sermon, we explore how, because Jesus is Lord, we can live in freedom — not freedom to do whatever we want, but freedom from rules that crush and harshness that destroys.
Repent and Rest | Matthew 11:20-30
Coming to Jesus means repenting and resting.
Every human being is weary. We carry burdens we were never meant to bear: the weight of performance, the exhaustion of trying to prove ourselves, the endless striving for approval. In this sermon, we explore how Jesus offers rest to the weary — but receiving that rest requires repenting of our pride and trusting in him alone.
Offended by Jesus | Matthew 11:2-19
Jesus both subverts and fulfills our expectations.
To be human is to have expectations about how we hope life to go. Even John the Baptist, the forerunner of the Messiah, has expectations about who Jesus is and what he should do. In this sermon, we explore how Jesus both subverts and fulfills our expectations, and why that is good news.
Jesus Over All | Matthew 10:16-11:1
The essence of mission is putting Jesus first.
Every human being longs to live with a sense of purpose or mission. But it can be easy to get caught up in strategies, methods, and outcomes while losing sight of the mission. In Matthew 10, Jesus sends out his disciples with sobering warnings as he calls them to mission. In this sermon, we explore how the essence of mission is not success or safety,
Harassed and Helpless | Matthew 9:35-10:15
Christians are a going people.
Every human being longs to be part of something bigger than themselves. In Matthew 9:35-10:15, Jesus looks at the crowds with compassion and sends his disciples out to proclaim the kingdom, thus calling them into a vast and compelling mission. In this sermon, we explore how God’s people are to be a "going" people, sent into the world to further Christ's cause.
The Thrill of the Chase | Matthew 9:27-34
Faith looks to Jesus when despair would be easy.
We often think of faith as something we must work up or conjure within ourselves. But what if faith is actually a response to being pursued? In Matthew 9:27-34, we read about Jesus healing two blind men who persistently pursued Him, followed by the healing of a mute man who needed to be brought to Jesus by others. In this sermon, we explore the beau
Faith in an Age of Despair | Matthew 9:18-26
Faith looks to Jesus when despair would be easy.
Every human being faces moments of despair. In Matthew 9:18-26, two people approach Jesus in despairing situations: a synagogue leader whose daughter has died and a woman who has suffered for twelve years. In this sermon, we explore how faith looks to Jesus even when despair would be easy.
The Freedom of a Christian | Matthew 9:1-17
Jesus has come to set people free.
Many people think following Jesus means adding more rules, more obligations, more religious performance to an already exhausting life. In this sermon, we explore how Jesus doesn't patch up our religious systems; he offers us something entirely new: freedom from sin, separatism, and scrupulosity.
Good Authority | Matthew 8:18-34
What you need in your life is not less authority, but good authority.
We live in an age that's deeply suspicious of authority. Yet every human being lives under authority of some kind; whether it's our own desires, cultural pressures, or destructive forces beyond our control. In this sermon, we explore the truth that what we need is not less authority in our lives, but good authority — and Jesus i
Unclean, Unworthy, Unseen | Matthew 8:1-17
With Jesus, no one is unclean, unworthy, or unseen.
The insecurities we carry about ourselves often hinder us from coming to Jesus. We feel unclean because of our shame, unworthy because of our sin, or unseen because of our story. As a result, we hide in obscurity or shrink back in fear. But as Matthew tells us of Jesus cleansing a leper, healing a centurion's servant, and healing Peter's mother-i
Union with Christ Produces Life | Colossians 3:1-4
At the heart of the gospel is the doctrine of union with Christ – we are in Christ, and he is in us. As we continue exploring this transformative reality, we turn from death to resurrection. In this sermon, we consider the simple yet profound truth that union with Christ produces life.
Union with Christ Requires Death | Romans 6:1-14
At the heart of the gospel is the doctrine of union with Christ – we are in Christ, and he is in us. As we turn the corner on another year, we pause to look more closely at this reality. In this sermon, we consider the simple truth that union with Christ requires death.
Advent Love | Isaiah 11:1-10
Because Christ has come, we should love him.
In the fourth and final week of Advent, we look at Isaiah 11:1-10 and how it encourages us, in light of the coming of Jesus, to be a people who deeply love him.
Advent Joy | Isaiah 9:1-7
Because Christ has come, we should rejoice.
In the third week of Advent, we consider the prophecy of Isaiah 9:1-7. In light of Christ's coming, Christians should be a people of profound joy!
Advent Peace | Micah 5:2-5
Because Jesus is our peace, we can be a people of peace.
In the second week of Advent, we consider Micah 5:2-5, and how it encourages us in light of Christ, the prince of peace, to be a people of peace.
Advent Hope | Isaiah 40:1-11
Because Christ has come, you should set your hope in Him.
Advent Series Description: Advent is the season of the year when Christians reflect upon the coming of Jesus. Our Savior's lowly incarnation & birth at Christmastime was the fulfillment of prophetic hopes the Scriptures had been sounding for centuries. In this series, we explore four key prophetic passages that reveal Christ and point
Three Warnings | Matthew 7:13-29
Heeding warnings is a pathway to wisdom.
From the earliest moments of childhood, warnings play a vital role in developing maturity and wisdom. While warnings might not feel good in the moment, we instinctively understand their importance. In this sermon, we examine three warnings Jesus offers as he concludes the Sermon on the Mount.
The Slow Journey of Discipleship | Matthew 7:1-12
Christian maturity is a journey, not a destination.
Every human being recognizes at some level that life is a journey full of ups and downs. Yet we’re prone to seek out quick fixes and easy solutions. In this sermon, we explore Jesus’s teaching that discipleship is a long, slow journey from pride to humility; from fear to faith, and from apathy to love.
Treasure, Worries, Carrots, & Sticks | Matthew 6:19-34
Your heart follows what you treasure.
Worry and anxiety seem to mark our cultural moment. Yet when we truly understand the character of the Father in heaven, worry is abated. That’s what Jesus wants his hearers to understand. In this sermon, guest preacher Dr. Jonathan Pennington explores Jesus’ teaching on treasure, worry, and why we can rest in the Father’s good care.
Series Description: Jesus i
You Must Kill Your Need to be Seen | Matthew 6:1-18
You must kill your need to be seen.
Every human being is born with the God-given desire to be seen. The problem is that this desire is easily distorted. We often want others to notice us for the wrong reasons: self-centered approval, building a reputation, or being seen as better than others. In this sermon, we explore how, through Christ, we receive what we long for — to be deeply seen and deeply
Ethical Beauty | Matthew 5:17-48
You were meant to live a life of ethical beauty. Jesus shows us how.
How should I live? It’s one of the most important questions in life. Every human being is a moral creature; the problem is that we don’t all agree on morality. But what if there was an objective moral standard that's true in all times and places? That's exactly what Scripture gives us - and it's exactly what our conscience needs.
The Good Life | Matthew 5:1-16
The good life is found on the narrow way.
“All men seek happiness.” So said the French philosopher Blaise Pascal. Every human being has a longing for satisfaction, fulfillment, wholeness. What does Jesus have to say about happiness? In this sermon, we explore how Jesus's words in the Sermon on the Mount reveal the path to genuine happiness and flourishing.
Series Description: Jesus is the hero of
The Kingdom of Heaven | Matthew 4:12-25
Because the kingdom of heaven is at hand, you should drop everything and follow Jesus.
Every human being is a follower of someone or something. At the end of Matthew 4, Jesus announces that the kingdom of heaven is near and calls his first disciples to follow him. In this sermon, we examine what it means to drop everything and follow Jesus in light of the kingdom of heaven.
Series Description: Jes
Victory Over Temptation | Matthew 4:1-11
Because Jesus resisted temptation, you can too.
Temptation isn’t a religious thing; it’s a human thing. Every human being recognizes that there are things they are tempted by. But what’s the solution? In Matthew 4:1-11, Jesus himself is tempted, yet he fully resists. In this sermon, we explore the fact that because Jesus resisted temptation, you can too.
Series Description: Jesus is the hero of al
The Baptism of Jesus | Matthew 3:1-17
In previous eras, people fought and died for their views of baptism. But in our era, it's often seen as a religious ritual that has little practical significance. In Matthew 3, Jesus is baptized by John the Baptist, demonstrating that he has come to identify with sinful humanity. In this sermon, we explore the significance of Jesus’ baptism and how, in Christian baptism, the Christian receives the
A New Exodus | Matthew 2:1-23
Two things are simultaneously true about every human being: we all long for something greater than ourselves to worship and serve, yet we fiercely resist any authority that threatens our control. This tension is represented in the magi and King Herod in Matthew 2. In this sermon, we explore the remarkable truth that Jesus is the fulfillment of Israel's hopes (and ours). In Jesus, the nations are g
What’s In A Name? | Matthew 1:18-25
Names carry meaning. In his birth account, Matthew introduces two names that reveal who Jesus truly is. He is called Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins. He is called Immanuel, because he is God with us.
In this sermon, we reflect on how these two names reveal the character and identity of Jesus: He is God incarnate who has come near to save sinners, and his presence never leav
A New Genesis | Matthew 1:1-17
The letter 'N' is the key to understanding the Bible. Rise, decline, anticipation – this is the story of the Old Testament, and the story of your life may follow a similar pattern. In the introduction to Matthew's Gospel, we learn that the arrival of Jesus is both a culmination and a new beginning. Jesus Christ is the focal point of history – and because he is, we should orient our lives around hi
Intentional Transformation | Romans 12:1-2
In this sermon, we explore the Bible's vision of intentional transformation, summarized powerfully in Romans 12:1-2.
Every human being is being transformed. Change is not something only religious people seek; it's something every human being seeks. How do God's grace and our purposeful effort fit together in the pursuit of change? That's the question we seek to answer in this sermon.
The Heart-Compelling, Cosmos-Transforming Love of Jesus | Revelation 7:9-17
By God’s grace, Coram Deo Church celebrates 20 years of gospel ministry this month. As we praise God for His faithfulness and look forward to what lies ahead, we welcome guest preacher Scotty Smith to preach about the transforming love of Jesus Christ.
Follow Good Examples | Philippians 3:17-21
In this sermon, preached by one of Coram Deo’s church planting partners, Dave Comeau, we explore what it means to follow examples who know where they are going and who also know where they belong.
To be human is to seek to imitate and follow someone. Human beings are creatures who gravitate toward the examples of others, whether for good or for ill.
A Vision for Gospel Ministry | 2 Corinthians 4:1-7
In this sermon honoring Coram Deo's 20th birthday, Pastor Bob unpacks three aspects of a coram deo approach to gospel ministry.
In 2 Corinthians 4, the Apostle Paul describes his conviction that gospel ministry is to be done "in the sight of God." This verse was one of the foundational texts behind the name of Coram Deo Church.
Bring Your Doubts to God | Psalm 74
In this sermon, we explore what it looks like to bring feelings of doubt and despair before God.
Every human being goes through seasons of doubt. But what do we do in those moments? Psalm 74 describes a time in Israel's history when it seemed God had abandoned his people.
Series Description: The Psalms are the song book of God's people, and each summer we mine their riches. Their imagery, poetry,
Why Do the Wicked Prosper? | Psalm 73
In this sermon, we follow the Psalmist's own journey to resolve his spiritual doubts and questions as he navigates a world that often seems unfair and unjust.
Every human being longs for the right kind of leadership and rule. When we experience good leadership, we want to follow. When we experience poor leadership, we lament and seek other guidance.
Series Description: The Psalms are the song boo
We All Want a King | Psalm 72
In this sermon, we explore the reality that we all want a king who exercises dominion, brings prosperity, and delivers his people.
Every human being longs for the right kind of leadership and rule. When we experience good leadership, we want to follow. When we experience poor leadership, we lament and seek other guidance.
Series Description: The Psalms are the song book of God's people, and each
A Timely Hope and a Timeless Hope | Psalm 71
In this sermon, we unpack what it means to be a people of hope. God's word gives us timely hope for various stages of life, culminating in the timeless hope of the resurrection.
Some sort of hope drives every human being. It’s core to our humanity. But is your hope strong enough to anchor you through all the seasons of life?
Series Description: The Psalms are the song book of God's people, and ea
The Gift of Desperation | Psalm 70
In this sermon, we explore the gift of desperation and how it can lead us into deeper intimacy and worship of God.
As the saying goes, “desperate times call for desperate measures.” To be human is to experience moments of desperation. But in those moments, what do we do and where do we turn?
Series Description: The Psalms are the song book of God's people, and each summer we mine their riches. Th
The Resilient Life | Psalm 69
In this sermon, we explore some of the hindrances to resilience, and how the gospel of Jesus Christ empowers us for a life of resilience.
If you're going to live a meaningful life, you need to cultivate resilience. But it's a quality that's elusive and increasingly rare in today’s society. Loneliness and opposition can be major hindrances to a resilient life.
Series Description: The Psalms are th
You Need a Better Story | Psalm 68
In this sermon, we explore how God’s work in the past anchors God’s people in the present.
Every one of us is story-formed. We are shaped by what happens to us and by how we respond. But if we dwell only on our own stories, we can become self-focused and self-absorbed. Psalm 68 shows us the way out: we need a bigger story. The biblical writers ground us in God's story, showing how the narrative of
What Does it Mean for God to Bless Us? | Psalm 67
Psalm 67 shows us the right way to seek God's blessing: not individually, but communally. We should ask God to show favor to his people, because the flourishing of the church leads to the flourishing of the nations.
The word "blessing" might be overused in religious circles, but it gets at something profound: we all want God's blessing. We want God to favor us, to smile upon us, to be happy with u
5 Principles for Praise | Psalm 66
In this sermon, we explore the anatomy of Christian worship: the what, why, when, how, and who.
Human beings aren't just thinkers or lovers or doers; we are worshipers. And the Bible calls us to worship God. So what exactly does that look like?
Series Description: The Psalms are the song book of God's people, and each summer we mine their riches. Their imagery, poetry, and theology invite us to
A Greater View of God | Psalm 65
In this sermon, we explore the reality that each one of us needs a greater vision of the God who is provider, powerful, and personal. Whether you are a Christian or not, everyone has an idea about who God is. And how you view God has massive implications for every facet of your life.
Series Description:

God’s Reversal(s) | Psalm 64
In this sermon, we examine the truth that God is just judge, and we explore why that's good news for the world.
Psalm 64 is a psalm full of reversals: the wickedness of humanity is upended and judged by God.
Series Description: The Psalms are the song book of God's people, and each summer we mine their riches. Their imagery, poetry, and theology invite us to deeper worship of God and remind us of
Bear One Another’s Burdens | Galatians 6:1-5
In this sermon, we explore the reality that Christians are called to bear one another's burdens in such a way that we are participating in one another's sanctification.
As disciples of Jesus who are filled with the Spirit, Christians are called to bear one another's burdens. But what exactly does that mean? And why, a few verses later, does Scripture exhort us that "each will have to bear his own
Welcome One Another | Romans 15:1-7
In this sermon, we explore what it looks like to live out the call to "welcome one another as Christ has welcomed you."
Throughout his ministry, Jesus Christ welcomed both outsiders and insiders, both the tax collector and the religious scribe. His ministry broke down social, political, and economic barriers. And because Jesus is our Great High Priest, his followers, who have received the welcome
Teach & Admonish One Another | Colossians 3:16-17
Whose responsibility is it to teach in the local church? Because Jesus is our great high priest, all Christians are called to "teach and admonish one another" (Colossians 3:16). In this sermon, we explore what it looks like to live out this command in the ordinary life of a local church community.
Confess Your Sins to One Another | James 5:13-16
In the Middle Ages, the Roman Catholic Church mandated that Christians confess their sins to a priest. But since Jesus is our great high priest, Christians actually have the freedom and responsibility to "Confess your sins to one another" (James 5:16). What if we actually did that? In this sermon, we explore how the grace of Jesus empowers us to confess our sins to one another and pray for one ano
For God so Loved the World | John 3:16
Christ is risen! Sin and death have been defeated, and all those who trust in Christ receive eternal life. But what does that mean, exactly? In this Easter 2025 sermon, we look at John 3:16—perhaps the most familiar verse in the Bible—to explore the love of God, the grace of God, and the path to life.
Life at the End of the World | Daniel 12
In the final chapter of Daniel, God reveals his purposes for the end of history. So how ought we to live in light of the end? The answer might surprise you. God instructs Daniel to "go your way." The details about the end of time aren't ours to know. Instead, we ought to live our lives to please God, know God, and see God.

True, Good, and Beautiful | Daniel 11:1-12:4
In many ways, opening the Bible is like entering a strange new world. Daniel 11 is no different, as Daniel receives a vision of future events concerning two kingdoms. But what is the significance? In this sermon, we see that God's word is true, good, and beautiful.
Reality is More Mysterious and Ordinary than You Think | Daniel 10
The mystery and intrigue of Daniel 10 have fascinated people for millennia - spiritual beings, the mystery of prayer, and how that all relates to everyday life. In this sermon, we explore the truth that reality is both more mysterious and more ordinary than you think.
The Lord of the Covenant | Daniel 9
After reading the prophet Jeremiah, Daniel prays to God, and God reveals to Daniel that Israel’s time in exile will be longer than anticipated. Yet this does not mean that God is unfaithful to His covenant. In this sermon, we explore what it means for Christians to know, understand, and embrace their responsibilities as a covenant people.

We all want to know the future. Whether it’s the future of our health, our work, our relationships, or our country, we all wish we could know what's coming. In Daniel 8, God reveals to Daniel events that are yet to come. In this sermon, we explore the glorious truth that God knows the future, and we consider the implications of that truth for our lives.
