Dec 2 2018 The Temptation of Jesus / Matthew 4:1-11

Josh Hawley

After His coronation by the Spirit and affirmation from the Father as the coming King, Jesus enters into a time of intense temptation from the devil in the barren Judean wilderness. The battle that follows will reveal that Jesus is truly the Son of God who defeats the tempter. It will also show… More

Nov 25 2018 John the Baptist and Jesus' Baptism / Matthew 3:1-17

Josh Hawley

In Matthew 3, God raises up John the Baptist to prepare the hearts of the people of Israel for the coming of their King and Messiah, Jesus Christ. John preaches that people need an authentic repentance and they express this through Baptism. Jesus then appears to be baptized and is affirmed by the… More

Nov 18 2018 Visitors From the East, Escape and Return / Matthew 2:1-23

Brad Bell

As we go through the second chapter in Matthew, we will look at the events of Jesus’ childhood and the world He was born into.

Nov 11 2018 The Virgin Birth / Matthew 1:18-25

Mike Slayden

In the years following the accounts in the book of Acts, early church leaders were intent on keeping the theology of Christ pure and accurate, so much so that they were willing to die for those beliefs.

Oct 14 2018 The Joy of Generosity / Luke 6:38 / Mark 12:41-44

Brad Bell

By His own nature and character, God is generous, and we are His image bearers. Therefore, we are called to reflect His characteristics. Because of the fall, we became selfish, thinking only of taking care of ourselves and our own comfort. But because of the redemption of Christ, the image of God… More
