God’s grace doesn’t just save—it changes. Titus 2:11–14 shows us that the same grace that rescues us from sin also trains us in godliness. This week, we’ll explore how salvation sparks transformation, how mercy reshapes our hearts, and how grace produces lives that increasingly reflect Christ.

Jesus said his disciples are to seek first his kingdom. Yet how easy it is for us to get entangled in this world—to allow personal pursuits and perpetual busyness to shape our priorities and agendas. The brief story of the rebuilding of the temple in Haggai 1 is instructive for us. We will study how God's people considered their selfish ways and reoriented themselves to seek God's priorities first.

Many Christians feel the tension between the radical life Jesus describes and the ordinary life we often settle for. In Luke 9:18–25, Jesus cuts through our confusion with a breathtakingly clear call to follow Him—one that exposes our comfort, awakens our courage, and resets our expectations for discipleship. This passage helps us see what true devotion looks like, what it costs, and why it’s worth everything.

The Holy Spirit is not an optional part of the Christian life--He is its very center. But sadly, many Christians don't know Him well. This study (re)introduces us to the Spirit and to a life in relationship with Him.

All the gifts the church experiences flow from the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The same Gospel that saves us from our sins gifts us to show mercy, to serve, to teach, to give, to lead, to have supernatural knowledge, to pray for healings, to prophesy and to speak in tongues. All the gifts described in the New Testament are necessary expressions of the active presence of God in our midst through the power of the Holy Spirit. Two gifts uniquely stand out - one for its power to edify the whole church and the other for its power to edify the individual Christian. Let's dive into these two gifts to which Jesus dedicated an entire chapter of the Bible.

In studying 1 Corinthians 12:1-11, we see a glimpse of who the Spirit is, what he does, and how he continues to empower believers for ministry and witness.

We live in a world running in every direction except toward what truly matters. In Philippians 3:12-21, Paul shows us what it looks like to run the only race worth running — one that forgets what’s behind, strains forward to what lies ahead, and follows after those who run for the same prize. The Christian life is not a casual stroll; it’s a wholehearted pursuit of Christ Himself.

Everyone wants power, but few want suffering. Yet Paul shows us that you cannot have one without the other if you truly want to know Christ. In Philippians 3:7–11, he reveals that the Christian life is marked by both resurrection power and suffering for Jesus. This Sunday we’ll see how knowing Christ means living in His power, walking in His sufferings, and pressing on toward the hope of resurrection glory.

We all keep a kind of scorecard—whether it’s being a good parent, working hard at our job, having a solid reputation, or even just trying to be a “good Christian.” Paul had the best scorecard you could imagine, and yet he says it was all worthless compared to knowing Christ. In this passage, Paul shows us the emptiness of trusting in what we’ve done and the freedom of resting in what Christ has already done for us.

What is truly worth pursuing? Paul shows us that all else pales in comparison to knowing Jesus. In this message, we’ll see the serious danger of losing sight of Christ—and the surpassing treasure that makes Him worth more than anything else in life.

Where is God when the wicked strike? In the face of shocking violence and rising wickedness, Psalm 10 gives us a mirror to see our world with biblical clarity. It names evil for what it is, teaches us to cry out for God’s justice, and anchors us in the assurance that the Lord is King forever.

Paul’s life and ministry exemplify a single, unwavering focus: Christ. Even in chains, he rejoices that Christ is proclaimed. In this passage, we see the tension between life and death, and Paul’s unshakable commitment to the advance of the gospel over personal comfort. This sermon will explore what it means to live with a passion so consuming that Christ becomes the center of every choice, every struggle, and every ambition.

It’s easy to resent trials and wish they would go away—but James 1:2–4 shows us that God can use them to shape our character and strengthen our faith. When we face difficulties, we have a choice: grumble or grow. In this message, we learn how to not waste our trials, instead letting God refine us and produce perseverance that leads to maturity and hope.

Few Psalms have such strikingly powerful declarations of aspects of God's nature, God's attributes. David did not come to know God's attributes through some dusty book of theology. Here in Psalm 139, David is arrested in full flight from God by deeply personal revelations of the Omniscient God, the Omnipresent God, the Omnipotent Creator God, the Ruling God and the Shepherd God. David sees God's very nature and is transformed. And by God's mercies, so shall we be as we study Psalm 139 together.

Christians live between the already and not yet. The gospel has triumphed, and final salvation is guaranteed! That comes with an urgent call—to put off slumber and to remain spiritually awake. To live alert in light of the coming day of our Lord's return.

In the last chapter of Leviticus we encounter the topic of paying for one’s vows. We see a God who accommodates for vow breakers. We are called to a high standard of keeping to our promises, and yet we are pointed to God as the great vow keeper as our example and substitute.

What kind of blessing does God promise His people? Leviticus 26 gives a clear and compelling answer. God lays before Israel two paths—one of obedience leading to flourishing, and one of rebellion leading to ruin. This isn’t about earning individual rewards but receiving covenantal favor as a people who walk with Him. Ultimately, the chapter points us to Christ, the true Israelite, whose obedience secures every spiritual blessing for those in Him.

What kind of freedom does God want for His people? Leviticus 25 gives a surprising answer. Through the Sabbath year and the Year of Jubilee, God builds rhythms of rest, release, and restoration into the life of Israel. These laws aren't just ancient economics—they are a picture of the gospel. In Christ, we find the true Jubilee: debts forgiven, slaves set free, and broken things made whole.

God orchestrated every aspect of the tabernacle to display the gift of his presence to his people. In Leviticus 24, we see how God invites his people to fellowship with him regularly and reverently and to sanctify the name that is above all names.

The feasts of the Lord were an integral part of the life of the nation of Israel in times of their faithfulness. The feasts are really quite fantastic and important in many ways. In addition to the weekly liturgy of the Sabbath, the feasts were an annual liturgy that rehearsed the story of their salvation, grounded them in a healthy cycle of life and pointed to a coming Messiah. And the feasts can do the same thing for us.
