This week's bulletin is online here. Christmas is a time of promise and hope. At Christmas, we look forward to the eventual rest that Jesus will bring at the consummation of all things as we remember His coming into the world. In John 5, Jesus performs a miracle that points ahead to that rest when He heals a man on the Sabbath, and as He describes the meaning of that event, He speaks to His identi...  Read More

This week's bulletin is online here. The Gospel of John is an evangelistic Gospel. On the one hand, this means that we can read John to discover how to come to faith, but, on the other, this means that we can also read it to learn how to proclaim our faith. It is an inspired example of how to proclaim Jesus as the Christ, the Son of God. That being the case, what does it teach us about how to evan...  Read More

This week's bulletin is online here. All Christians have been commissioned by Christ to go and make disciples of all nations, and, as such, Christians can be very sensitive to the need to go and proclaim the gospel. However, they can also be sensitive to the need to do it rightly and accurately. Combined, those two desires can often conflict and leave the Christian confused about how and when to p...  Read More

This week's bulletin is online here. Perhaps the greatest obstacle that the Christian will ever face in their spiritual growth is unbelief. Our unbelief keeps us from seeking God, and it causes us to doubt His promises when we do seek Him. But what is unbelief really, and what can be done about it? How can we grow out of our unbelief? That's a question that Ryan will explore this Sunday in part tw...  Read More

This week's bulletin is online here. Jesus once said, "A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master. It is enough for the disciple to be like his teacher, and the servant like his master." (Matt. 10:24-25a) It's an important principle for the Christian to keep in mind, and perhaps most especially as they consider the mission He has called them to perform in the world. In Chr...  Read More

This week's bulletin is online here. Every four years, we watch our nation get whipped into a frenzy over the prospect of a new president, only to be met with disappointment later on when the new administration fails to make any substantial changes to the direction of our country. It is rare to encounter a leader who can manage to take his people in an entirely new direction, but in Jesus, we enco...  Read More
