God has proven His perfect faithfulness across redemptive history, calling His people to trust Him rather than live in anxious self-reliance. From Noah to Abraham to Mary, the Lord keeps His promises and does what is impossible with man, showing that he is trustworthy. This Christmas, lay aside every weight, submit to Christ the King, and come to Him for the rest He gives through His cross and coming kingdom.

Isaiah proclaims that God will pierce the gloom of judgment with a great light, bringing joy, freedom, and enduring peace to a people who walked in deep darkness. This hope is fulfilled in Jesus Christ—the promised Son who reigns with justice and righteousness and will ultimately end oppression and conflict forever. Because the zeal of the LORD will accomplish it, sinners are invited to repent, trust in Christ, and hold fast to sure hope even in present darkness.

Jesus has been divisive from the beginning. In this sermon, we look at Herod’s reaction to the birth of Christ, then contrast that with how the magi responded. Do you see yourself in these men? Are you willing to submit to Jesus as King, or will you maintain your own kingdom?

In this sermon, we follow Peter’s sobering reminder that God has never failed to judge wickedness—whether angels, the ancient world, or the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. Yet right alongside these acts of justice, God has always preserved His people. This passage calls us to take sin seriously while resting in the unwavering promise that the Lord “knows how to rescue the godly from trials,” even when evil seems overwhelming.

False teaching is subtle, seductive, and spiritually dangerous—but God has given His people a sure and steady Word. In this sermon, we look at the behaviors and motivations of false teachers and consider the far more uncomfortable reality: that the seeds of distortion grow in every human heart. Peter calls us not only to watch for falsehood around us but also to confront the fear, pride, and desire for ease that can lead us astray.

In a world overflowing with noise, deception, and “cleverly devised myths,” Peter reminds us that the truth of Christ is not fragile or new—it’s confirmed by eyewitnesses, rooted in the prophets, and authored by the unchanging Spirit of God. The same Word that shone as a lamp in the darkness of the first century still lights our path today. When everything else shifts and blurs, God’s Word remains steadfast, calling us to think clearly, live wisely, and cling to what is eternally true.

Faith isn’t meant to sit idle—it’s meant to pull every part of your life along with it. In this sermon, we are reminded that real faith produces real change, and that these qualities confirm our calling and prepare us for heaven. Don’t coast in your faith. Link your faith to every area of your life and keep fueling the train toward Christ.

2 Peter 1:3-4 reminds us that God’s divine power has already granted us everything we need for life and godliness. In this sermon, we are invited to pause and remember the immeasurable gift of God’s love—the power that called us, sustains us, and equips us for every good work. Before we can live faithfully, we must first rest in the truth that our Father has already provided all we need through Christ.

Slow down. The introduction of 2 Peter is only a few words, but it invites us to consider how blessed we are to have a salvation of equal standing with the apostles while drawing us to invest in knowing God through his word. Grace and peace are multiplied in the knowledge of God!

When we encounter suffering, Peter calls us to lift our eyes to Christ—the one who keeps, strengthens, and restores his people. In this closing message from 1 Peter, we are reminded that humility, faith, and steadfast trust in God are how we endure hardship and resist the enemy. The Christian life, from start to finish, is simply this: keep your eyes on Jesus and stand firm in his grace.

Elders are meant to be shepherds who care for the flock while exemplifying godly character. In this passage from 1 Peter, we explore the nature of that calling and its benefits for the church. Shepherding is not for the faint of heart, but it’s worth it. 

The early believers refused to stop speaking the name of Jesus, even when it meant ridicule, rejection, and suffering. Following Christ faithfully often comes with fiery trials, but there is hope and glory awaiting those who bear His name unashamedly.

In this week’s sermon from 1 Peter 4:12–13, we are reminded that suffering for Christ is not strange, but expected—and even a cause for joy. True joy doesn’t come from avoiding trials, but from seeing God’s grace at work as He holds us fast and refines our faith in the midst of them. As we share in Christ’s sufferings now, we look forward with overjoyed confidence to the day when His glory will be revealed, and our faith will be turned to sight.

In 1 Peter 4:7-11, Peter calls us to live with urgency, self-control, and earnest love because “the end of all things is at hand.” Whether the world hates us or accepts us, the Christian life is marked by prayerful dependence, sacrificial love, and faithful service that reflects Christ himself. This sermon reminds us that every word we speak and every gift we use is meant to glorify God and bear witness that Jesus is King.

In this passage, Peter reminds us that the time for living in sin is over—we now belong to Christ and live for the will of God. Following Jesus often means choosing hardship over ease, but it also means living with assurance, strength, and eternal hope. This message calls us to embrace our new life in Christ, endure with faith, and proclaim the gospel with both our words and actions.

Jesus suffered once to bring us to God, proclaimed His victory over every power, and shows that baptism points to His resurrection, not ritual. The bottom line: Christ saves and reigns, our true Ark.

“Faith is the antidote to fear.” In Christ, we discover a hope that reframes suffering and anchors us beyond our circumstances. This passage calls us to honor Jesus as Lord in our hearts and to let that faith spill over into how we live, speak, and endure for His glory.

Peter calls believers to unity, to bless when wronged, and to turn from evil while pursuing peace, trusting the God who sees and hears. This is the blessed life, anchored in Christ’s example and empowered by His Spirit.

In 1 Peter 3:1-7, Peter calls husbands and wives to a way of living that upholds God’s design while subverting cultural expectations. Wives are urged to display the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, trusting God even when their husbands fall short. Husbands are commanded to live with understanding and to honor their wives as co-heirs of grace, following the example of Christ’s sacrificial love. This counter-cultural vision of marriage is not about power or passivity, but about faith in God that transforms the home into a testimony stronger than words.
