Why Christ Came

Christmas Eve 2022

Joy - Matthew 2:1-12

Jesus alone can offer true and lasting joy because He has that joy in Himself.

Filled with Hope

The hope of heaven sets us free from earthly striving and encourages our hearts to rest secure in confident waiting. 

Love - John 1:9-18

For the next thirteen weeks we will study one of the thirteen perfections of Jesus – this Sunday focusing on love.

Salt and Light - Matthew 5

This final message in our calling series summarizes what we have learned this fall and concludes with the exhortation to be who we are in Christ: "the salt of the earth...and the light of the world." Jesus does not commands his followers to "do" slaty things and "say" light-filled things. He tells them, "this is who you are." When we realize the truth of our identity in Christ it propels us to be HIs hands and feet in a lost and broken world. How is the Lord leading you to share His love and truth with others?

Divine Appointments - Jonah 4

Jonah’s path from self-pity to despair is a warning to us of the danger of idolizing anything in this world. Listen to learn how God’s gracious interruptions become divine appointments.

Surrender - Jonah 4

Brian Sanders, the founder of the Tampa Underground, speaks on Jonah 4 and helps us see ourselves in the struggling prophet’s complaint to the Lord. 

Receive the Word - Jonah 3

We receive God’s Word by hearing, believing and obeying. And we should share God’s Word simply, faithfully and hopefully.
