We're preaching hard just north of Boston. May our good Father, in His grace and by His Spirit, use these words to build the kingdom of His Son by bringing many to repentance and faith.

God is redeeming His Creation through His Son, but what does it look like to faithfully and joyfully cooperate with Him in that? In this passage, Luke introduces us to Mary, who gives us some idea of how to do that.

This Sunday, we’ll begin our Advent sermon series from the Gospel of Luke, called Good News of Great Joy, with the story of John the Baptist’s birth. As we do so, we’ll hear how God answered the prayers of John’s parents and see how God works in the lives of his people so that His blessing leads others to rejoice in God and hope in his salvation.
Luke 1.5-25, 57-80
The end of Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount issues some stark warnings and teaches us that true righteousness finds its roots in the state of our hearts.
Have you ever wondered why people choose to fast? Throughout the Scriptures, we see many of God’s people fasting, yet honestly, fasting for the purpose of pursuing God can sometimes be overlooked in our own walk with Jesus.In this week’s passage, Jesus shares with us how to fast and offers a profound motivation: the Father Himself promises to reward us! If our fasting is only to gain applause or approval from others, then that’s th...
When we read our Bibles, we hear over and over again that God alone rules over all. But as we look around to our culture and to our own hearts, it often feels like something else is on the throne - money.In our text this week, Jesus shows us what it looks like to live faithfully to Him by believing that He is better than our wallets. He won’t give us a budget. He won’t tell us what we can or can’t spend our money on. But He gives u...
Prayer can seem quite difficult, no matter how convinced we are that God calls us to it. We can struggle because we don’t know what to say or how to say it. Additionally, we can a tough time because of who we are and what we think we are accomplishing as we pray. No matter your struggle, prayer can challenge you … but through prayer, God can also bless you. This week, we’ll hear from Jesus how to pray in the right way for the right...
Matthew 5.13-16
How can I make a difference in other people's lives? How can I build a life on the gospel that loves and leads others to the real Jesus?
These are questions we ask whether younger and figuring life out or older and established. This Sunday, we'll hear Jesus tell his disciples they've been made new. They've been made salt. They've been made light. And as they (and we!) live ...
How does Jesus expect us to live as His people? In Christ our citizenship is in heaven and we’re called to live together in a manner worthy of that calling. This Sunday Jesus shows us what that looks like: ending angry contempt with urgent reconciliation, killing unholy desires and honoring marriage, speaking plainly and keeping our word, and exercising humility and wisdom. We don’t do these to earn the kingdom; we do them because ...
This week, we begin a new preaching series from Jesus’ famous Sermon on the Mount, titled ‘Building Life on the Gospel.’
We all choose how we are going to build our lives.
The challenge from Jesus is to intentionally choose how we are building our lives.
To enter his kingdom, we must have the overflowing righteousness of God.
How do we get that overflowing righteousness?
There are two choices: One is to pursue r...
How should I follow Jesus in this broken and sinful world? If good works don’t save me, should I try to do them? This Sunday, as Paul ends his letter to Titus, we’ll see that believing and living in Christ means that we’ll also live lives devoted to good works. Our good works won’t save us, but we are certainly called to do them as humble heirs in God’s kingdom.

Following Jesus in an ever-changing, disorienting, and broken world can sometimes seem impossible. We don’t know what to do. We may not know what to say. Life can be confusing in the moment, but this week we’ll hear that the grace of God not only saves us but also trains us.
Paul sent Titus to Crete to establish elders. Titus was also with this young church to ensure that healthy gospel doctrine was being preached and lived. Good doctrine without gospel living discredits the gospel, dishonors God, and destroys lives. But, faith that produces godly living promotes Jesus and his mission to save us and those who don’t yet believe.
As the Apostle Paul left Titus in Crete to help the church, he assigned him an important task: appoint elders. We may wonder: Why? Who? What will they do? Fortunately, as we dive deeper into Paul’s letter, we’ll find answers to those questions and see that Paul believed faithful elders faithfully preaching would lead to faithful people
Have you ever wondered how your belief in God affects your life? This Sunday, as we kick off our new sermon series, Believe and Live, we’ll hear that our faith and knowledge of God does not merely inform how we live. Instead, our believing drives our living

Psalm 103
Whether reading the psalms that tells us *Bless the Lord* or singing the words "Praise God from whom all blessings flow" in the Doxology, it's clear that God is due some response from us. He's due our blessing. We know He's worthy, but how can we bless Him? How do we get there? How can we cultivate hearts that bless the Lord? This Sunday, we'll see that we bless the Lord as we rememb...
We live in a world in which some people do evil to others and yet go unpunished. Faced with this reality, we may doubt that God is just. In Psalm 94, the psalmist reassures us that He is and shows us how to live in light of this truth.
Psalm 97
What gives you joy? What makes you rejoice?
Our tendency is to think being in control or getting to call the shots brings joy, but our Psalm this week tells us differently. It tells us that true joy and rejoicing result from the Lord's reign over all.
