Bear With One Another

God’s word doesn't assume that His Church has already been made perfect, but makes clear we are a people in process being shaped and molded by the hands of His Spirit into the image of Jesus. Until then, for unity to be preserved among us, there must be a predisposition we each hold towards one another that requires humility, patience, love, and forgiveness: We must share a willingness to Bear With One Another.

Confess to One Another

Although God’s word tells us none of his commands are burdensome, there is a “one another” command that can feel heavy, raw, and exposing: confess your sins to one another. Why is this something we should do in the church, and what can happen if we refuse to? Better question: what gospel graces might we experience if we do practice this?

Love One Another

Kicking off our new summer sermon series ONE ANOTHER on the way of life in the Church, we’ll look at the one another command that is most essential, most foundational, and most vital to the light of the Gospel shining so brightly within the local body: LOVE ONE ANOTHER.

I and the Father are One

When we share Jesus with people and invite them to believe, what all might it take? What are some things we can be ready with? When inviting people to believe in Jesus, no person did it better than Jesus himself. In the heat of hostility, he gently, logically, unapologetically declared His nature, offered the evidence, countered accusations with cultural logic, and gave the invitation. Are you ready to introduce our neighbors and community to Jesus?

The Gate to Abundant Life

Jesus, being the supreme preacher and teacher, often uses images and illustrations that are connected to spiritual realities about Himself, us, and the the world; these are called parables. In our text this week, Jesus takes a culturally common, well-understood image of sheep-farming and draws out major implications about who He is and how people can have abundant life in His name because He is The Gate.

The Joy of Rejection

These days, if you speak loud enough in the public square about your faith in Jesus of Nazareth, sure enough, you will find yourself on the receiving end of some distasteful, maybe even hurtful, responses. We might testify to the work Jesus has done in our lives and not be believed; we might express the common sense facts about the person and work of the historical Jesus and be maligned… we may even be rejected because of our faith in Jesus. While it can be deeply painful, what’s waiting on the other side of that rejection is a kind of joy that will make every single second of the pain worth it, and that joy’s name is Jesus.

The Healing Light

God’s word diagnoses this cosmos with an underlying condition: fallen into darkness. It explains why such a beautiful world can be so full of suffering and affliction while simultaneously showing us this wasn’t the way the world was originally designed to be. As much as we attempt to turn back the effects or find ways to escape the pain, there’s only one real, true, shining Light that, not only exposes what's in the dark but can heal those things trapped in the dark. Jesus, the Christ, is not just a shining light, He is the healing Light of the World.
