To understand sloth we need to start from scratch. Forget what you think you know about sloth and join us on this introspective journey into the most misunderstood of the seven deadly sins. Sloth is deeply woven into the fabric of our brokenness.

Is pride the deadliest of the seven deadly sins? Pride makes a new covenant with us, that “we will be like God, and that we will surely not die.”

Lust is a deeply personal and powerful sin that impacts our lives. How are we to think about lust and how can we battle against it to experience freedom and new life in Christ?

Greed is a sin that hides unlike any other. It hides behind our comparisons and excuses and endless craving for more. But greed isn’t about how much you own, it’s about what owns you.

Gluttony is about the habits of your heart, and the health of your soul. If we're careful to examine our own hearts we shall surely find gluttony at work in us regardless of our waist size. Because gluttony is not just about food. It is a disordered appetite for more.

This sermon on envy begins a new sermon series on the 7 deadly sins. The idea of the seven deadly sins comes out of Proverbs 6:16-19. As we dive into what envy is, and why it is "deadly". We pray you would find the tools to put to death the envy in your own heart and that you would find in it's absence the pure joy of the Spirit of God!

There are two ways of life according to 1 Peter 5. The way of The Lion, and the way of The Lamb. Peter warns us against the way the lion. Find out what Peter is talking about with us as we finish our sermon series on 1 Peter.

There are many things in this small passage that don't seem to make sense to a modern mind. Peter is speaking the gospel into a particular time and place. Peter wants to teach us how the Church should engage the state, how the Church should engage injustice and how the Church should engage the way of Jesus Christ.

We are all priests in exile? What does that mean? God is building a priesthood of believers. A community of redemption. It is only in this priesthood, this community, that we will find the answers to our suffering, our grief, and our pain. We are priests exiled together for the glory of Christ and the life of the world.

When was the last time you felt hope? As we continue asking, "What is my salvation for?", Peter teaches us that it's so we might hope. But knowing the hope of our salvation requires that we understand that we live in exile, because this world is not our home. When we see the hopeless reality of sin in this world, we experience the hope of what God has done in this world through Jesus Christ.

Life can feel like being stuck in exile sometimes. Life is full of loss, grief, and sorrow that makes us long for something more. But Jesus meets his people in exile. Peter begins his letter by addressing the "elect exiles" and begins to unpack how our salvation is a Trinitarian endeavor. He is our God and we are his people! He meets us in our lowest, darkest times and he will be with us in our exile to the very end!

Simon Peter goes fishing. But he hasn't caught a thing until Jesus tells him to cast his net on the other side of the boat. What is really going on in this story? What deeper truth is buried under the surface? Find out with us as we explore John 21

In this Easter Sunday sermon on John 20 we look at Thomas. Oftentimes people use Thomas as an example of what not to do, so much so that he's called "Doubting Thomas". But doubt comes to us all more easily than we'd like to admit. But John doesn't highlight Thomas as a warning against doubt, he highlights Thomas for his faith in the midst of his doubt. Thomas needed a Scarred God and so do we.

It's so hard to acknowledge that you need help. But it's even harder to ask for help if you're able to accept that you need it. Where does our help come from? Jesus gives us a window into this in the upper room. He says the helper is coming , but first He must leave us for a while. Would you rather see Jesus face to face or have The Helper indwelling you. Jesus says the helper is better. But do we really believe that?

The way that Jesus talks about discipleship is different than the way we think about discipleship. We may be able to say how to find eternal life in Jesus, but what about life now? How do we change and grow and experience the newness of life that Jesus offers us? In this sermon on John 15, Jesus teaches us what it means to abide in him so that we might bear fruit and experience new life.

Jesus makes extraordinary promises about the Triune God in John 14. Anchor your soul to the Spirit of God. Anchor your heart to Jesus. And anchor your mind to the Father. Our Comforting God will give you peace!
