Andy gives us this message focusing on two key themes from the book of Joshua: consecration and memorials. He highlights the Israelites' need to prepare themselves spiritually before entering the Promised Land and facing its challenges, emphasizing that this preparation is more crucial than military strategy. Andy then discusses the importance of remembering God's works, using the example of the stones taken from the Jordan River a...
This Easter Sunday, Isaiah explores the Christian concept of being made new, drawing from Revelation 21:1-5. Isaiah discusses the human experience of things becoming old and broken, highlighting the difficulty of achieving true renewal in everyday life and even in ourselves. He contrasts this reality with the biblical promise that God will ultimately make all things new, free from suffering and death. Isaiah guides us through the E...
In this week's message, Mike, the former lead pastor of Campus Light, reflects on his time here at Rutgers and addresses the current congregation. Drawing inspiration from Joshua 4 and the act of creating memorials with stones, Mike emphasizes the importance of remembering shared history and God's faithfulness through different seasons of change and growth within the church. He uses personal anecdotes, significant events like weddi...
Isaiah continues our series on 1 Corinthians through a deep dive into the first chapter. He guides us through a verse-by-verse analysis, emphasizing contrasts between the Corinthian church's worldly issues and the spiritual identity they hold in Christ. Isaiah highlights themes of unity, the seemingly paradoxical nature of being both already sanctified and not yet fully realized, and Paul's surprising gratitude for the Corinthians ...
This week, Isaiah launches into a new sermon series on the book of 1 Corinthians. Isaiah introduces the Corinthian church as one with significant problems, offering a relatable case study for modern Christians and churches grappling with their own issues. The series aims to explore how Christian principles apply to all aspects of life, challenging the idea of compartmentalizing faith. This week's message aims to set the foundat...
Pastor Manny brings us James 2:14-26, emphasizing that genuine faith is demonstrated through actions and that faith without works is dead. Pastor Manny clarifies that James isn't advocating salvation through works, but rather highlighting that authentic belief in Jesus manifests in tangible deeds. He discusses how easily individuals can become self-deceived through “derailing forces”, believing they are virtuous simply because of f...
Isaiah continues our message series “Made For People” with a message on the importance of genuine friendship, vulnerability, and honesty. He illustrates how confessing sins and sharing struggles fosters deeper connections. He also contrasts superficial relationships with those built on mutual openness and truth, arguing that true friendship requires overcoming the shame and isolation stemming from our sins.
The first in a series titled "Made for People", Isaiah looks at the "loneliness epidemic" and its impact on our lives. Humans are fundamentally designed for relationships and true connection with others is essential for our well-being. Isaiah exhorts us to practice openness and honesty, which can be done authentically when we understand the gospel — that Jesus knows us fully and love us fully.
What can we learn King Herod and his response to the birth of Jesus? Isaiah brings us a message on how we, like Herod, love to usurp the throne of our lives from the rightful king — Jesus.
Jon explores a story from Luke 17 about Jesus healing ten lepers, focusing on the theme of gratitude and its connection to faith. He encourages us to cultivate gratitude and reflect on God's blessings, especially in this season of Thanksgiving.
Isaiah explores the concept of eternity and its implications for how we live our lives. He emphasizes that the gospel should fundamentally changes our perspectives on life, death, and our relationships with others. Isaiah asks two key questions: what are you doing to bring people into eternity, and is there room in your schedule to invest in eternity?
Jon brings us a sermon exploring the realities of death and how it should impact our lives, drawing from the Bible and personal experiences. Ultimately, our belief in Jesus' victory over death should transform how we live our lives. Instead of fearing death, Christians can look forward to eternal life.
Jon explores the parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector from Luke 18:9-14. Jesus uses this seemingly simple story to reveal profound truths about human nature and our relationship with God. The story contrasts two men who go to the temple to pray: a self-righteous Pharisee and a humble tax collector.
