Making Gospel Waves

This sermon considers the “gospel waves” that were made as the disciples were faithful to the mission that Jesus gave them. The bold proclamation o the gospel will create waves in a society reaching beyond the pew, to the people and even the palace. Here is a call for us to make gospel waves by courageously speaking truth to those in the pews and the parliament for the glory of Christ. Passage: Luke 9:7-9

Disciples: Called, Equipped, Sent

This sermon brings us back to basics in remembering that our commission under Christ is simple. He calls, he gives, and he sends. We gain insights on what this means in our age and are invited to be a willing servant of Jesus. Passage: Luke 9:1-6

The Desperate Come to Christ

Christ came for the needy, the helpless, and the desperate. In this sermon we consider Jesus’ miraculous healings for people in their desperation. The challenge for us is to ask if we are desperate enough to seek out the Savior and come to him in faith and love. Passage: Luke 8:40-56

Jesus, Legion, and Our Great Salvation

In this sermon we consider the man possessed by a legion of demons who is miraculous saved by Jesus. The response of those looking on as well as the response of this saved man paint a portrait of how people respond to the power and authority of Jesus. May it encourage us to “sit at the feet of Jesus” in reverence, love, and obedience. Passage: Luke 8:26-39

Commander of Storm and Sea

Jesus demonstrates his authority and power to prove that he is God in human flesh. He still possession this same authority and power today and it is our task to live in light of Christ’s authority through faith. Passage: Luke 8:22-25

Christ’s Final Words

In Christ’s last words to the apostles we find both correction and encouragement. In response to a bewildered band of apostles, Jesus offers a powerful theology of the kingdom of God and promises to equip them for its advance. These same realities remain true and effective for the church today. Passage: Acts 1:6-11

I Will Build My Church

In this sermon, Pastor Tim examines Jesus promise to build his church. We consider when that promise was made, how it begun, how it is expanding, and finally its completion in glory. May this promise give you comfort, hope, and let you stand firm and labor in the Lord. Passage: Matthew 16:18

Take Care How You Hear

Jesus frequently calls us to right hearing. He calls us to hear and respond to his words. So we must ask, “Am I a good hearer?” This sermon examines the parable of the lamp and is a call for us to hear and act upon the good news of the King and his kingdom. He who has ears to hear, let him hear. Passage: Luke 8:16-21

Parable of the Soils

In the most well-known of Jesus’ teaching styles and perhaps the most well-known parable, we consider the spread and the reception of the message of the kingdom of God. In this parable, we’re encouraged to both see the word of God go forth and to be sure we are hearing properly in response to the words of life. Passage: Luke 8:4-15
