Who Is Jesus (2025), Week 5: In His Grace, John 1:16-18, Sunday, Oct 26, 2025

October 27, 2025 • 23 mins
Sometimes life makes us choose between grace and truth.  Can we be gracious while we hold evil doers accountable?  Does grace allow us to differ about matters of truth?  In Jesus, truth and grace are fully revealed, empowering us to be both truthful and gracious.

Who Is Jesus (2025), Week 4: In Our World, John 1:14-15, Sunday, Oct 19, 2025

October 20, 2025 • 21 mins
Unlike the gods of myth who are partially divine and partially human, Jesus is both fully God and fully human.  As both Son of God and Son of Man, He offers a meaningful way to restore our relationships with both our Heavenly Father and one another.

Who Is Jesus (2025), Week 3: In the Family, John 1:10-13, Sunday, Oct 12, 2025

October 13, 2025 • 22 mins
When God started His family in the Garden, there was a man and a woman who had two sons.  That family fell apart, however, and countless generations later, brothers were still killing brothers.  Then Jesus comes to bring the family back together.

Who Is Jesus (2025), Week 2: In the Light, John 1:6-9, Sunday, Oct 5, 2025

October 6, 2025 • 21 mins
The story in Genesis tells us that God creates light, separating it from darkness. John’s story develops that truth, reminding that Jesus is that light that scatters the darkness in our lives and in our world.

Who Is Jesus (2025), Week 1: In the Beginning, John 1:1-5, Sunday, Sept 28, 2025

September 29, 2025 • 26 mins
John’s Gospel begins with a creation story that has a new twist.  He assures us that Jesus was there, “in the beginning”. He engages with us well before He is born in a Bethlehem stable.  What difference does this make in our lives?

Where Is God (2025), Week 6: Assured Peace, Habakkuk 3:17-19, Sunday, Sept 21, 2025

September 22, 2025 • 24 mins
A solid trust in God can quiet storms.  We will still have them. They will still knock us about. However, they can also drive us deeper into the safest place on earth, our awareness of the sovereign, loving and vigilant presence of God among us.

Where Is God (2025), Week 5: Solid History, Habakkuk 3:1-2, Sunday, Sept 14, 2025

September 15, 2025 • 28 mins
God is not an unknown entity. He has been revealing Himself for generations.  As we hear and remember these stories from the past, they inform our expectations for the future.

Where Is God (2025), Week 4: Inspired Patience, Habakkuk 2:1-4, Sunday, Sept 7, 2025

September 8, 2025 • 25 mins
God responds to evil in ways we don’t always understand.  Does this mean He is not responding at all? Maybe the way He responds to evil should inspire our response to the broken world around us.

Where Is God (2025), Week 3: Inscrutable Methods, Habakkuk 1:12-13, Sunday, August 31, 2025

September 1, 2025 • 25 mins
Thinkers for thousands of years have asked why God allows evil people to prosper.  Habakkuk adds his complaint to this list.  What does this inspired complaint tell us about ourselves, our world and our God?

Where Is God (2025), Week 2: Challenging Answers, Habakkuk 1:5-11, Sunday, August 24, 2025

August 25, 2025 • 22 mins
Lawyers are told never to ask a witness a question publically, if they do not already know the answer.  Habakkuk did not follow that advice.  God gives an answer that changed the prophet’s world view.  What does this response teach us about our own world view?

Where Is God (2025), Week 1: Good Questions, Habakkuk 1:1-4, Sunday, August 17, 2025

August 18, 2025 • 25 mins
The prophet, Habakkuk, was a good man who had some serious questions about his good God, who, at the moment, did not seem very good.  Do such questions help us? Do they matter to God?

First Things (2025), Week 6: Hearing & Doing, Romans 2:12-16, Sunday, August 10, 2025

August 11, 2025 • 23 mins
The connection between hearing and doing is often tenuous.  Often we do not translate words into action unless something convincing happens. We can either go through the motions and pretend to care, or we can own our failures and, through God’s restoring power, we can  become genuinely better people.

First Things (2025), Week 5: Glory & Honor, Romans 2:5-11, Sunday, August 3, 2025

August 4, 2025 • 26 mins
Winning matters, unless you are playing the wrong game. Finishing first is finishing last if you are running in the wrong direction.  Paul argues that we should clarify what we are aiming for, before we take off after it.

First Things (2025), Week 4: Kindness & Repentance, Romans 2:1-4, Sunday, July 27, 2025

July 28, 2025 • 22 mins
While the world falls apart, it is easy to accuse and assign blame; however, then we are simply part of the problem. Truly helpful and caring people move on to the next stage and help people to discover a new, healing way of life.

First Things (2025), Week 3: Truth & Consequences, Romans 1:18-21, Sunday, July 20, 2025

July 21, 2025 • 22 mins
Without a sense of urgency, we seldom choose to change.  Unless we view ourselves drowning, we will not recognize our rescuer. Paul sounds the alarm about a world that is perishing from a lack of God’s ways, and we will serve our world best if we see it through those eyes.

First Things (2025), Week 2: Message & Mission, Romans 1:14-17, Sunday, July 13, 2025

July 14, 2025 • 22 mins
Paul is convinced that God will make this world right again, and he intends to devote his whole life to that effort.  What has convinced him so profoundly?  Will the same truths convince us to be part of God’s restoration plans?

First Things (2025), Week 1, Grace & Peace, Romans 1:1-7, Sun, July 6, 2025

July 7, 2025 • 26 mins
For Paul, “grace” and “peace” are not polite, formal greetings. They describe God’s transforming power available to anyone who wants to be part of the solution in a world torn apart by centuries of hatred.

Four Imperfect Power Couples (2025), Week 4, Jacob & Rachel, Genesis 29:16-30, Sun, June 29, 2025

June 30, 2025 • 24 mins
As God reveals His divine plan to the world, He chooses one family line through whom He will work in a very public way, ensuring that their story is diligently recorded for all of us to follow.  At the head of this family line, consisting of twelve sons, God places another imperfect couple.  God gives their father, Jacob, a new name, “Israel,” because He struggled with God.  In many ways, his struggle remains our struggle; and yet,...

Four Imperfect Power Couples (2025), Week 3, Isaac & Rebekah, Genesis 25:19-26, Sun, June 22, 2025

June 23, 2025 • 25 mins
When God’s first couple had children, things did not work according to His original design. Now, in this new creation, the children of Isaac and Rebekah again threatened His good intentions. However, God will not allow their flaws to overthrow His sovereign decision to extend His blessing to all people and all generations.

June 16, 2025 • 27 mins
With this couple, God begins a new creation, a new people, in a new land.  Like the original parents whom God chose, this couple also had their faults.  However, God selects them anyway, to share a blessing intended for all people for all times.
