Grace does not merely invite; it transforms. Philippians 2:12–13 calls us to work out our salvation not in fear of losing it, but in confidence that God Himself is working within us. Obedience flows from new affections shaped by regeneration—our action is real, yet wholly powered by divine grace.

For Whom Does Christ Pray? (John 17:4, 9, 20-21; COD 2)
This sermon explores the doctrine of limited atonement through John 17, showing that Christ’s death is not a vague, potential redemption but a finished work for a particular people the Father has given Him. Rather than fueling elitism, this truth humbles believers: faith does not save us; Christ saves. Faith is the Spirit’s gift that compels us to cling to Him to receive all Christ’s distinct benefits. Christ’s high priestly prayer reveals His heart. Christ prays for his people. Christ desires eternal fellowship with the people that God has given to Christ. This does not make us complacent, but we live in the confidence that Christ’s work will complete his intended result.

God’s Family: Joseph Son of David (Matthew 1:17-25)
This sermon reflects on how God faithfully works through broken family lines, centering on Joseph as the quiet, righteous link between David’s promises and Christ’s birth. Matthew’s genealogy reveals that God does not need perfect people, but uses flawed, ordinary sinners to bring the Messiah into the world. Joseph’s obedience in taking Mary as his wife, bearing public shame, and naming the child “Jesus, Yahweh saves”, secures Jesus’ legal place in David’s line and displays what true righteousness is: humble trust in God’s redemptive plan. Through Emmanuel, “God with us,” God triumphs over human sin, fulfills His covenant, and graciously calls us into His family, assuring believers that His promises will never fall flat.

Scarcity or Abundance? (John 10:15; COD Head 2)
The doctrine of Limited Atonement is often misunderstood as if Christ’s sacrifice were scarce or restricted. Yet Scripture reveals the opposite: Jesus’ atonement is infinitely sufficient for all, but applied only to His sheep—those who hear His voice and follow Him. This truth isn’t about exclusivity but assurance. The Good Shepherd laid down His life intentionally, securing salvation for His flock and lifting sinners from the depths by grace alone.

It's God's Kingdom and His Choice (Ephesians 2:1-10; COD Head 1)
The Canons of Dort reject the Arminian view that human choice influences God’s election. Instead, they affirm that election is entirely of God’s grace, based on His purpose and love, not on foreseen faith or works. This doctrine emphasizes God’s sovereignty, personal intervention, and unchangeable love, ensuring that salvation is entirely His work and all glory belongs to Him.

Heaven’s Veto (Luke 24:1-35)
Why would anyone celebrate a crucified King? Rome saw the cross as a warning. Christ’s followers saw it as a tragedy. Yet the resurrection turns the world upside down. The Resurrection shatters expectations, confronts unbelief, and proclaims God’s victory. In this message from Luke 24, we explore how the resurrection is revealed to the women at the tomb, rejected by the confused disciples, and finally regarded with awe as Christ opens blind eyes. This passage reveals the triumph of a Savior who refuses to stay dead. If you’ve ever wrestled with doubt, disappointment, or the tension between what you expect Jesus to do and what He actually does then you can relate to Christ’s original audience. The resurrection is not just an event; it is the moment when God exposes our assumptions, overturns our fears, and calls us to see Christ as the Redeemer we actually need. He is not the redeemer we think we need.

More Gracious Than We Can Imagine (Romans 9:6-13; COD Head 1 Articles 7, 15)
The Canons of Dort present election as a deeply loving act of God. Election is rooted in His mercy, not our merit, ensuring that His people will enter His rest despite sin and rebellion. Romans 9 reminds us that salvation is grounded in God’s sovereign will, not human effort. This doctrine offers profound comfort: the elect care about Christ because the Spirit is at work in them, and God’s mercy guarantees their salvation.

Tragic and Glorious Will (Luke 23:26-56)
Luke’s account of the crucifixion reveals both tragedy and triumph as the meaning of the cross unfolds through Simon of Cyrene, the repentant thief, and the centurion’s confession. This sermon on Luke 23 highlights Christ’s mission fulfilled, the cost of biblical discipleship, and the irony of the gospel. From Isaiah 53’s prophecy to the Day of the Lord imagery in Amos and Joel, Luke shows that Christ’s death is not a failure but the heart of Christian redemption. This message explores the crucifixion in Luke with clarity, calling believers to see the cross not as defeat, but as the victory of God’s kingdom.

What's with Jesus Leaving? (LD 18; Luke 24:36-53)
Today we welcome Rev. Austin Britton as he preaches on the meaning and power of Christ’s ascension. Far from being an absence, the ascension is Jesus’ strategic advance for the growth of God’s kingdom. By ascending, Christ sends the Holy Spirit, expands His presence to all believers, and equips the church to fulfill its mission. Rev. Britton highlights how Jesus’ ascension empowers us to do greater works, assures us of His intercession, and prepares our eternal home—revealing the immense benefits this pivotal moment brings to every Christian.

The Kangaroo Court (Luke 22:54-71)
Christ’s kingdom turns the world upside down—not through power or fear, but through peace. As Peter’s failure and Christ’s silence unfold in Luke’s Gospel, we see that true strength is found not in human resolve, but in the Savior’s submission. The King who was mocked and beaten was already winning the greatest battle of all—redeeming sinners and restoring peace with God.

What is Forgiveness? (LD 51; Col. 3:12-17)
Forgiveness is never simple. Scripture calls us to release offenses while exercising wisdom and setting healthy boundaries. Rooted in Christ’s sacrifice, true forgiveness bears a cost—it lifts the burden of sin without ignoring justice. As we forgive others, we reflect God’s grace and live out our shared identity in Christ.

Christ tells us to be ready in this age. However, it is not with swords in our hands, but rather with faith that reaches the resurrected Christ.
