Advent IV - Revolutionary Waiting

Taming Our Tongues: James 3:1-12
James has much to say about our tongues! How can such a small part of our body have such a big impact on those around us! This Sunday we'll consider James 3, the challenge of taming our tongues, and the importance for believers to speak words of peace and grace.
James Chapter 2 Reflection #2
How do we reconcile James and Paul on works and faith? Can we dismiss one and follow the other? When we take a closer look at James, we realize that faith and works go hand in hand and true trusting-solely-in-Jesus-faith bears fruit in the lives of believers.
The Impartiality of God: James 2:1-14
We continue our study of James with a sermon on the beginning of Chapter 2. What does it mean for followers of Jesus to show no partiality? How does this play out in practice? We take a look at James 2:1-17 and consider how and why believers follow Jesus in this way.
James: Chapter 1 Reflection #1
James moves us through a lot of material in Chapter 1, discussing trials, wisdom, wealth, and being "doers of the Word." How are these things tied together and what do they mean for us today?

Bishop Chip Edgar reflects on the saints before the throne of God on this celebration of All Saints Day.
Matthew 22:15-22 Paying Taxes to Caesar
The religious leaders are seeking to trap Jesus with a question about taxes - should they be paid to the Roman Empire or not? Jesus, instead, makes a statement about God - who he is and who we are in relationship to him. Join us this morning as we explore what it means to give back to God what belongs to him.
Matthew 22:1-14 Called and Chosen
The banquet is ready but the guests refuse to come! How will the king respond? Who will he choose? And, what does it mean for us to be called and chosen by the king? Join us this morning as we look at the Parable of the Wedding Banquet and consider the life of a called and chosen follower of Jesus.
1 Corinthians 15:20-34 The Resurrection Changes Everything
What does the resurrection mean for our everyday lives? Well - it changes everything! Today we consider out Jesus' resurrection is the first-fruits, setting in motion the defeat of all of God's enemies. Finally, we'll look at how this hope we have influences how are lives are shaped today.
1 Corinthians 15:1-19: The Resurrection of the Dead
How important is the bodily resurrection? Pauls tells us it's essential, a lynchpin to our redemption in Jesus! Join us this morning as we begin our journey through 1 Corinthians 15, the climax of Paul's letter, and consider the centrality of the resurrection to our hope in Jesus.
1 Corinthians 14:1-25: Pursuing Gifts in Love
What does it mean to pursue gifts in love and how do prophecy and tongues fit into that equation? We'll take a look at 1 Corinthians 14 this morning as we seek to serve others in all things, especially our spiritual gifts.
1 Corinthians 13: The Primacy of Love in All Things
When it came to spiritual gifts, the Corinthian Church found they were using them for all the wrong reasons! What good are gifts, or any other action for that matter, if they are not grounded in love? Join us this morning as we look into 1 Corinthians 13 and discover the primacy of love in all things.
1 Corinthians 12: Spiritual Gifts and the Body of Christ
How do the various gifts of Christians work together for the good of the church? For Paul, Christians work together as the Body of Christ. We take a look today at 1 Corinthians 12 and consider how the diversity and interdependence of Christians and their gifts work for the proclamation of the Gospel.
1 Corinthians 11:17-34: The Lord's Supper
What does it mean to partake in the Lord's Supper in an unworthy manner? What does the community of Christians look like that does, actually, "discern the body" as they come to the table? We look at 1 Corinthians 11 and consider the role of the Lord's supper in our community and how, when we come together at the Table, we proclaim the death of Christ to the world.
1 Corinthians 10:23 - 11:1: Considering the Conscience of Others
In this sermon from Dave Wright, we explore the Apostle Paul's encouragement to consider the conscience of others as we live lives as followers of Jesus.
1 Corinthians 9:1-18: Giving Up for the Gospel
What "rights" do we have as Christians? Can "rights" be given up for true freedom? What about for freedom for others? Join us this morning as we continue our walk through 1 Corinthians and consider Paul's encouragement to give up for the sake of the Gospel.
1 Corinthians 8:1-13: Love and Weakness
Knowledge vs love? Weakness vs strength? Paul takes on the issue of eating food that has been sacrificed to idols - not an obviously common problem for us today! However, in encouraging the Corinthian Church, Paul gives us a roadmap for our communities today persuing love and becoming weak so that the Good news of Jesus may be seen in our lives.
1 Corinthians 7:1-24: Wisdom in Marriage and Singleness
What does the wisdom of God look like in our married lives? How might this be foolish to the world? We continue our series in 1 Corinthians considering God's wisdom for our relationships both in marriage and in singleness.
The Pouring Out of the Spirit
What happens when the Holy Spirit falls upon the first disciples of Jesus? What happens when he falls up us? This week, for Pentecost, we take a look at the coming of the Holy Spirit as he empowers the disciples of Jesus for ministry.
