The gospel contains five essential elements that Peter masterfully proclaimed in Acts 2: Jesus as the fulfillment of prophecy, His incarnation, His death and resurrection, His second coming, and salvation through Him alone. Faith is personal but never private. If the gospel has truly transformed your life, it should compel you to share it boldly with others. Jesus must be both your Savior and your Lord, having authority over every area of your life. True repentance is both a moment of decisio...

The Motivating Love of Christmas

Christmas provides unique opportunities to share the gospel with family and friends we rarely see. Many Christians miss these divine appointments because they approach life like tourists rather than evangelists. The apostle Paul offers three powerful motivations for evangelism: remember your slavery to sin before Christ, rejoice in the salvation God provided through His mercy, and resolve to share this hope with others. When we remember our former condition as deceived, disabled, disobedient,...

The Gift of Grace

Christmas naturally turns our hearts toward giving, but true generosity flows from understanding Jesus' incredible sacrifice. In 2 Corinthians 8:9, Paul shows how Christ's example motivates authentic generosity - Jesus gave up eternal riches to become poor so we could become spiritually wealthy. When we remember what Jesus possessed and willingly surrendered, understand His purposeful sacrifice for our sake, and receive the spiritual riches of mercy, grace, and eternal life, it transforms how...

Christmas Greetings: The Missing Peace of Christmas

Christmas is meant to be a season of peace, yet many find themselves dealing with broken relationships and family conflicts. The solution isn't winning arguments but having the mind of Christ. Philippians 2:5-11 shows us Jesus's example of radical humility: He gave up His divine privileges, took on the form of a servant, moved toward humanity despite our sin, and sacrificed everything for reconciliation. To restore broken relationships, we must follow His example by setting aside our need to ...

Power Tools for Multiplication

The Tower of Babel story reveals humanity's tendency to misuse God's gifts for selfish purposes. The people possessed four powerful tools for multiplication: language, innovation, unity, and the ability to receive correction. Instead of using these tools to fulfill God's command to fill the earth, they gathered together to make a name for themselves. God's intervention wasn't punishment but mercy, preventing them from using their power for ultimate destruction. At Pentecost, God began reversi...

Be Fruitful & Multiply: Multiply After Disaster Pt. 3

Noah's story doesn't end with the rainbow. After the flood, this righteous man experienced a devastating fall that teaches us important lessons about human nature and grace. Noah's gradual descent into sin reminds us that anyone can fall, and that failure often happens in private long before it becomes public. His story shows how sin spreads quickly through families and communities, affecting the most vulnerable first. However, we can learn from the contrasting responses of Noah's sons - whil...

Be Fruitful & Multiply: Multiply After Disaster Pt. 2

When disaster strikes, we often struggle with trust in ourselves, others, and God. Genesis 9 shows us how God meets Noah's family after the flood with a powerful covenant (or promise) that offers comfort and security. This covenant has four key aspects: its broad scope includes all creation, its security is permanent across generations, its singularity means it depends solely on God's faithfulness, and its seal (the rainbow) serves as a reminder of God's commitment. Through Jesus Christ, we e...

Be Fruitful & Multiply: Multiply After Disaster

Finding hope after disaster requires action, not just a change in attitude. Genesis 9 shows us how Noah moved forward after the flood by returning to God's original calling to multiply, remembering God's covenant, and recognizing that sin still exists in human nature. We're called to perpetuate God's image through investing in the next generation, project His image through exercising self-discipline and dominion in our lives, and protect His image through supporting justice. No matter what fa...

Be Fruitful & Multiply: Get in the Ark and Multiply

In a world that mirrors the moral decay of Noah's time, we need an ark of refuge just as Noah did. Today, Jesus Christ serves as our ark, protecting us from judgment, gathering us as family, providing truth, and offering clarity in confusing times. The church reflects this ark imagery, giving us community when society seems to be falling apart. By entering this spiritual ark, we can endure societal corruption, enjoy God's grace, and experience a fresh start. Like Noah, our response should be ...

Be Fruit & Multiply: To Call Upon the Name of the LORD

In Genesis 4-5, we witness the stark contrast between Cain's corrupted lineage and Seth's faithful line. While Cain's descendants pursued self-glorification through cities, achievements, and violence, Seth's line began to call upon the name of the Lord. This fundamental difference highlights our purpose: to reflect God's image in a corrupt world. Enoch exemplifies this by walking with God so faithfully that God took him directly. As Christians today, we're called to reflect Jesus in every asp...

The Good Shepherd

Jesus as the Good Shepherd represents the ultimate example of true manliness, characterized by sacrificial love and strength. Far from being sentimental, shepherding was a demanding job requiring toughness, vigilance, and deep care. Jesus proves He is the Good Shepherd by willingly laying down His life for His sheep, knowing them intimately, and intentionally seeking those who are lost. This powerful love establishes a profound relationship between Jesus and His followers, creating one united...

Be Fruitful & Multiply: Multiplying Protections

In this sermon from Pastor Matt on Genesis 3, we see how Satan’s deception in the garden still mirrors the struggles we face today in our homes, marriages, and personal lives. From doubt to temptation, hiding to blame-shifting, the enemy seeks to divide and destroy—but God offers a greater covering through Jesus Christ. This sermon unpacks the reality of spiritual warfare, the dangers of leaving our homes unguarded, and the hope of the gospel that restores what was broken.

Be Fruitful & Multiply: Multiplying Womanhood

In a culture filled with confusion about gender roles, understanding God's design for womanhood offers clarity and purpose. Biblical womanhood encompasses three key aspects: being a helper (a position of strength, not weakness), a partner (created for relationship and equality in value), and a life-giver (bringing vitality to every environment). Women possess the remarkable ability to elevate those around them through their support, wisdom, and life-giving presence. Rather than feeling restri...
