Paul shows that a life shaped by God’s mercy is never meant to be lived alone. In Romans 12:3–8, he moves from personal worship to shared community, calling believers into humble belonging within the Body of Christ. The Gospel reshapes how we see ourselves — guarding us from pride and despair — and anchors us in mutual dependence on one another. From that belonging flows faithful service, as each...

As we resume our Romans series, we enter the final section of Paul’s letter — A New Way of Life. In Romans 12:1–8, Paul shifts from unfolding the mercies of God to showing how those mercies are meant to shape everyday Christian living. This passage calls believers to offer their whole lives to God as living sacrifices — not from guilt or pressure, but as a fitting response to the Gospel. In this...

What would need to change for you to finally feel content?In Part 2 of From Covetousness to Contentment, we turn from exposing disordered desire to cultivating a deeper satisfaction in Christ.Writing from prison, Paul reveals that contentment is learned, tested in both plenty and want, and grounded in Christ alone.True contentment is not self-sufficiency, but Christ-sufficiency.Even when...

The holidays are over, the decorations are down, and the longing for “more” quietly returns.In this sermon from Exodus 20:17, we confront the Tenth Commandment and the subtle, dangerous sin of covetousness.Coveting is a disordered desire that begins in the heart, shapes our relationships, and reveals our discontentment with God.The Law exposes our broken cisterns and leaves us undone—but it also...

As a new year begins, we’re surrounded by pressure to become a “better version” of ourselves. In this message from 2 Corinthians 5:17, we’re reminded that the gospel offers something far deeper than self-improvement: a new identity in Christ. Being a new creation is not something we achieve through effort, discipline, or resolutions—it is a work God has already done. The same God who raised Jesus...

This week in our Advent series, At The Right Time, we turn to Galatians 4:4–7 to see how Christmas is a time for God to redeem. Paul reminds us that Jesus entered history at the perfect moment—not just to forgive sin, but to rescue people trapped under the weight of the law. Fully human and fully obedient, Christ paid our debt and did what we never could, freeing us from slavery to performance...

This week, we kick off our Advent series, At The Right Time, exploring Galatians 4:4-5 and the perfect timing of God’s plan through Jesus’ birth. As Dezemba brings celebration, pressure, and reflection, we’re reminded that Christmas isn’t about calendars, culture, or tradition—it’s about God revealing Himself. Join us as we uncover how the incarnation was God’s decisive move to redeem, reveal,...

In this message, we discover that gratitude is not something we manufacture, but the natural fruit of lives ruled by Christ’s peace, filled with His Word, and shaped by His name. Paul shows us how reconciliation with God brings deep peace that flows into our relationships and daily living. As Christ’s Word dwells richly in us — through teaching, correction, and worship — our hearts are formed to...

Paul reveals God’s breathtaking plan to bring Jew and Gentile into one family through sheer mercy. In a world marked by division, this passage reminds us that we all stand on equal ground — equally in need and equally met by God’s grace. As Paul reaches the end of Romans 1–11, he can only worship, overwhelmed by the depth and wisdom of God’s unsearchable ways. True understanding of the gospel...

Paul’s question in Romans 11 — “Has God rejected His people?” — reminds us that even when we wander, God’s faithfulness never fails. Through every generation, He continues to preserve a remnant, a people who stand firm by His grace rather than their performance. We’re reminded that no one is beyond God’s saving reach, and even when it feels like we’re standing alone, He is still at work. His...
