Sermon: Good and Evil Are Like Day and Night | Matthew 4:12–23 | Jesus Begins His Ministry

January 26, 2026 • 16 mins

The early church father Augustine offered a simple but profound insight. Evil exists only where good should be. Cold has no life of its own. It is the absence of heat. Darkness is not a thing in itself. It is the absence of light. Heat and light exist independently. Cold and darkness do not. They depend on what is missing in order to appear. Evil works the same way. It is not a created substance with its own power. It emerges where...

Sermon: A Message of Love | John 1:29–42a | Behold, the Lamb of God

January 19, 2026 • 15 mins

A Message of Love John 1:29–42a | Behold, the Lamb of God

At the heart of the Christian faith stands the love of God. Not a vague feeling or a selective affection, but a love that is concrete, costly, and given freely to all. When John points to Jesus and declares, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world,” he is naming the fulfillment of God’s promise. The Light has come, not for a few, but for the whole world...

Sermon: The Gateway to Heaven | Matthew 3:13-17 | The Baptism of Jesus

January 12, 2026 • 17 mins

When Jesus comes to the Jordan, He looks like everyone else standing in line to be baptized by John. Yet John knows the truth. This man has no sin. John hesitates, knowing the order seems backwards. He should be the one kneeling, not Jesus. But our Lord insists. This must be done to fulfill all righteousness.

Jesus’ baptism is unlike ours. He does not enter the water to have sin washed away. He enters the water to take sin upon Him...

Sermon: In My Father's House | Luke 2:40-52 | The Boy Jesus in the Temple

January 4, 2026 • 21 mins

God, from the very beginning, has arranged for our adoption as His children. Long before we were aware of it, before we could understand our own story, His purpose was already at work.

In spite of the failings of our parents, the disasters that have struck our lives, the swirling events of history, and even our own broken past and wandering paths, God has not been absent. He has been active, patient, and faithful. Every moment has ...
