Sermon by Ant Frederick on June 5, 2022.
In the final week of this series, we explore shame vs honor culture of the Bible and how, in Christ, we are cleansed, forgiven, and restored.
In Christ | Restored Honor | June 5
In Christ | New Creation | May 29
Sermon by Jake Blair on May 29, 2022.
Jesus is in the business of making all things new and He first starts with us. For this week we’ll look at 2 Corinthians 5, and how through reconciling us to Himself, God uses us to reconcile the world to Him.
In Christ | Sanctification | May 22
Sermon by Jake Blair on May 22, 2022.
What happens when you hit a spiritual “wall” in your walk with Jesus? What happens when, despite our best efforts, we notice our lives don’t match up with what Scripture calls us to? For our sermon this week, we explore the good news of how, in Christ, we have His imparted righteousness to help us.
In Christ | Imputed Righteousness | May 15
Sermon by Ant Frederick on May 15, 2022.
All of us have this incessant need to prove our goodness to ourselves, to others and to God. For this week, we’ll look at Romans 3-4 and how in Christ, we are freed up from having to prove ourselves because Jesus is our righteousness.
In Christ | Adoption | May 8
Sermon by Ant Frederick on May 8, 2022.
For our sermon this week we explore what it means to be adopted in Christ. In Him, not only do we have a Father who delights in us, but we've now been given a family to be a part of.
In Christ | From In Adam to In Christ | May 1
Sermon by Ant Frederick on May 1, 2022.
"You may teach what you know, but you reproduce who you are." This is whether you’re in a position of leadership or if you’re a parent: we reproduce who we are. The same is true theologically. This week we look at 1 Corinthians 15 as we unpack the concept of who we were in Adam and who we’ve become in Christ.

In Christ | Enjoying Our Union with Him | April 24
Sermon by Ant Frederick on April 24, 2022.
The terms “in Christ,” “in Him,” and “in the Lord” are used in the New Testament over 150 times to describe what it means to be a Christian. For the biblical authors and the early church, this concept was foundational in understanding who we are with God and with others. So, what does it actually mean to be “in Christ”?

Sermon by Ant Frederick on April 17, 2022.
The resurrection of our Savior, Jesus Christ, is an incredible and amazing historical event, but how does it affect our lives today?

The Suffering Servant | An Unexpected Table | April 10
Sermon by Jake Blair on April 10, 2022.
So far in this series we’ve seen how Jesus subverts our expectations. He’s an unexpected King with unexpected compassion who, as we'll see this week in Luke 22, invites unexpected people to his table.

The Suffering Servant | Unexpected Compassion | April 3
Sermon by Ant Frederick on April 3, 2022.
This week we'll look at one of the most famous moments and teachings in Jesus' ministry, Luke 10: The Good Samaritan. This story is perhaps so well-known that its impact is sometimes lost. So, who is the hero of the story? Who are we to identify with? What does it mean for us to be a people who descend and serve like Jesus, our Suffering Servant?

The Suffering Servant | An Unexpected King | March 27
Sermon by Ant Frederick on March 27, 2022.
The upside-down Kingdom has an “upside-down” King. Jesus did not come with pomp or circumstance, military power, or might. He came with sacrificial, self-giving love. His love is our example, our motive, and our call.

Father, give me opportunities this week to speak up and love those you call me to love.
Jesus, thank you for calling me to be a witness for you and your Kingdom.

Amen.

Acts | Following The Work Of The Spirit | March 20
Sermon by Ant Frederick on March 20, 2022.
In Acts 8:26-40, we see Philip prompted by the Spirit to witness to the Ethiopian eunuch. This is coming shortly after the death of Stephen, the church is scattered and yet we see the Gospel continue to go forth, this time to Samaria, just like Jesus said it would in Acts 1:8.

Acts | Condemned on Earth, Applauded in Heaven | March 13
Sermon by Ant Frederick on March 13, 2022.
At this point in the early church, we’ve seen some persecution and hostility, but the story of Stephen in Acts 6-7 marks the first martyr of the Jesus movement. So what can we learn from his sermon and his story?
