2 Peter 1:8, 3:14-18; Philippians 1:6; Titus 2:11-14; Romans 6:1-2; Psalm 92:12-15; Luke 4:16; Hebrews 10:24-25; Ephesians 4:15 — To conclude his second letter, Peter instructs his readers to ‘grow’ in the grace and knowledge of Jesus.

Stepping Into God's Great Story

View all sermons by Adam Ritchard

Matthew 9:35-38; Isaiah 6:1,8, 59:1; Genesis 18:14; John 4:35; James 5:16; 2 Chronicles 7:14 — Jesus saw the great ‘lostness’ of humanity as an opportunity; a plentiful harvest ripe for the picking. As we consider how God’s Great Story is still unfolding today, may we respond to this same opportunity as He did: with expectant faith, deep compassion, earnest prayer, and urgent action. Just as Isaiah proclaimed, may we too cry “Here I am Lord, send me!”

Esther 1:10-12, 2:5-9,17,21-23, 3:5-7, 4:13-16, 5:1-5, 6:1-2, 7:1-7, 8:5,11, 9:15-17; Luke 1:1-4; Ephesians 2:10 — Can God’s promises still be fulfilled even when none shall call on His name? The book of Esther reminds us that God is not limited by borders or time or rulers or human faithlessness. He is sovereign over all, unfolding His purposes and plan through everyday ordinary moments - and inviting us to participate.

From The Inside Out

Ezra 1:1-4, 3:10-13, 7:1-6, 9:1-2, 10:7-11; Nehemiah 1:1-4, 2:17-18, 6:15-16, 13:6-11,17-25,31 — King Cyrus rebuilt the temple; Ezra enforced the law of Moses; and Nehemiah repaired the city wall. But ultimately none of these external acts could truly change the hearts of God’s people. As we see the brokenness of the world all around us, may we not fight external battles with revenge, resistance, and force. Rather, may we be stirred with Christ-like compassion to love and forgive those around us - that the light of the Gospel would be allowed to transform hearts from the inside out.

The Definition Of Marriage

View all sermons by Dave Pellowe

Genesis 1:1, 2:18-25; Matthew 19:3-6; Ephesians 5:22-33; Jeremiah 3:3 — The essence and purpose of marriage is increasingly lost in our modern culture. This sacred, self-giving covenant relationship was not created by man or government, but by the pre-eminent God of all.

Hear from Dave Pellowe, Director of Church and State, a ministry founded to educate Christians about the Scriptural and historical basis for Christian influence in society & politics.
