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.
Psalm 92 invites us to praise God for his steadfast love and faithfulness. Together, we’ll see how true flourishing comes not from chasing our own happiness, but from resting in the God who rules on high forever in Christ. Join us as we discover the joy and strength found in worshiping the Lord who plants us to bear fruit for his glory forever.

Psalm 91
This Sunday, we’ll see that there’s not only great delight to be found in dwelling in God ... there’s great deliverance. God’s people have always faced significant opposition, intense challenge, and evil itself. Yet through it all and no matter the opponent, God promises great protection to those who seek Him.
Psalm 84
Have you ever stopped to consider what makes you truly happy? What is it that makes your day or week or life truly blessed? What do you truly long for that doesn’t let you down?As we begin our Summer in the Psalms this Sunday, we’ll hear who the Psalmist says are the truly blessed ones today, tomorrow, and forever. And we’ll find out that they are those who dwell in the house of the Lord, those whose strength is in God, an...
This Sunday, we’re looking at the moment when David’s sin comes to light—when God, in his kindness, exposes what he tried so hard to keep hidden. We’ll see that God’s integrity is rock solid: he’s always consistent with who he says he is, even when we’re not, and that’s both sobering and profoundly hopeful for people like us who know our own inconsistencies. Come ready to be honest about your heart and find that trusting in the con...
This Sunday, we’ll see King David foolishly believe sin’s lies after a long season of living under God’s rule and reign. After sinning greatly in taking what isn’t his, David uses all of his power and might, not to run to God, but to attempt to hide what he’s done. In doing so, sin’s deceit and destruction become apparent... as well as the reality that only God’s True King can cover sin.
2 Samuel 11

Have you ever been shamed or humiliated for following Jesus? Have you ever been opposed for following God’s King? Have you ever needed courage to fight? This week, as we spend time in 2 Samuel 10, we’ll see that you’re not alone. Even more, we’ll see God’s goodness give his people courage and hope ... and we’ll consider how the same is true for us in Jesus.
2 Samuel 10
2 Samuel 9
When we’re honest about who we are, where we come from, and what we have to offer to God, our prospects don’t look very good. Questions come to mind that make us wonder how God will treat us: What about all the bad I’ve done? What about how little I have to offer? What about my weakness?But this week, we’ll see God’s King’s kindness to one who should have been an enemy. We’ll see God’s King extend abundant kindness that n...
What would happen if God gave you a great victory in life? How would you respond? What would that blessing be for? This Sunday, we’ll see what happens in David’s life as God keeps his promises and gives him victory after victory in battle. Most importantly, though, we see that victory isn’t for victory’s sake. In Jesus, we too have victory, and those victories are for the glory of God, the good of others, and your joy.
2 Samuel...
David wants to honor God with a house. Instead, the Lord God blesses David with undeserved promises for the good of David and all humanity. This is how God intends for his people to live, then and now: by trusting in his gracious promises.
This is how God teaches David to honor him, not by building a house but by trusting him as the God who makes and keeps his promises.
God wants us to honor him in this way: by trusting in ...

As we start back up with our sermon series called God’s King in the Book of Samuel, God’s people have experienced great blessing and seek to unite God’s King with God’s presence by bringing the ark of God to Jerusalem. As they seek to bless and be blessed by God, we’ll see that our methods, motives, and manner of worship matter to God, for us, and for all those around us.
As God sent a Savior to His people in Jesus, there was reason for people’s rejoicing ... and there were also tears as that Savior was nailed to the Cross and put in a grave on Friday. But as Sunday came and the tomb was empty, we’ll see that God fulfilled his promises in Jesus’ resurrection.
After years of suffering and humiliation and waiting, the time has finally arrived: David becomes king over all Israel! This week, we will see that the Lord God established David as King - just like he said he would all those years ago by Samuel. And when God’s king is established, God’s people benefit greatly
After years of their own sin and King Saul's sin, God's people need a king who is guiltless. They need a king who follows God and hopes in God to lead them. This week, we'll see that is just the king that David is. He will remain guiltless as the kingdoms come together and God's people will take pleasure in him as he rests in God.
Are we there yet? This is a common question we ask at different times, whether as a child on a road trip or as an adult wanting to be somebody or somewhere already. It’s easy for us to feel like we have paid our dues and should have arrived at our destination. With that in mind, it’s easy to think the time was right for David to be King of Israel after Saul’s death. However, what David finds is different: a divided kingdom and oppo...
We come to the tragic end of Saul’s reign as king of Israel. And we see that obedience to the will of God and submission to His sovereign authority causes David to respond to that news in a very unexpected way.
1 Samuel 30
If you have ever shown up just a little too late, a little too tired, and found a huge problem to solve—a problem big enough that you were scared and everyone around you was afraid—then you'll know what David is feeling in this week's text. It was scary, and there wasn't much hope—until David strengthened himself in the Lord, who gave His people strength to walk forward and provided for their nee...
