Where do you need comfort right now? Be it political tensions, trouble at work or at home, or even the turmoil of your own heart-what is going on in your world that is upsetting?

Where do we find comfort...
We Must Obey God

Christians are tempted in every age to compromise. One age might be tempted to self-reliance, another to complacency, another to immorality, but every age has its temptations. Our day is no exception. As long as you live in this world, temptations and trials are bound to come. When the immorality of the present age and the power of the state combine to oppose Christ and his church, there is a q...
The Love of Christ
Просмотров 25День назад
The Gospel of John is the gospel written by a friend. John was someone who walked with Jesus, knew him, ate with him, saw the miracles. There are details in the gospel of John not seen anywhere else, as well as a more intimate, personal look at Jesus. In John 13:21-38 we see, from his friend, the love of Christ on display, even framed by the betrayal of Judas and the denial of Peter. Listen as ...

In John chapter 13, Jesus washes the feet of his disciples, demonstrating that Jesus comes as a servant and calls those who follow him to serve. Listen as Pastor Luke Herche preaches on this astonishing passage, teaching us to serve, not from a place of insecurity, but of confidence, not just our friends, but our enemies, and not as something optional, but as fundamental to discipleship of the ...

If we have believed in Christ, and been united to Christ, and died with Christ, and been raised with Christ, what does it look to walk with Christ in a world that does not know him? Listen as Pastor Luke Herche preaches on Colossians 4:2-6, teaching us to prayerfully cling to the gospel, pray for the work of the gospel, and make the most of every opportunity that you have. Part of a sermon seri...
Where You Live
Просмотров 35Месяц назад
What story are you living? We are all in the middle of a story. It’s the story of redemption, the story of grace, the story of Jesus. And it’s his story, not ours. We didn’t make it up, it’s not fantasy, and the ending is already set-but it’s a story all the same. It has a beginning, middle, and end, a sovereign narrator, narrative tension, a hero, and plenty of plot twists. Being able to imagi...

What are we doing here? That’s a question that can be answered in a variety of ways, but to put it broadly: what are we, Christians, doing here in the world? What is our role in God’s work in our day-to-day lives? And how is God calling you to join him in what the is doing in and through you? Listen as Pastor Luke Herche preaches on Matthew 5:14-16, answering four questions from this passage: W...

What does God have to say about civil government? There are many different types of governing authorities today: monarchies, democracies, communist dictatorships. Do the same basic Biblical principles apply to each form of government? Do some apply better than others? What is a Christian’s role as a member of a modern civil society? To answer these questions, it’s important to begin with the un...
Ora et Labora
Просмотров 37Месяц назад
Ora et labora is a Latin phrase with origins in Christian monastic communities. It was a maxim of monks and nuns throughout the history of the church that captured what they thought the Christian life was all about: prayer and work. And there certainly is an integral connection between our prayer and our work. Listen as RUF Campus Minister Ethan Brown preaches on Psalm 46:10 showing how this pa...
From One Degree of Glory to Another

Do you believe that God can bring change into your life? Christians often struggle with sin and weakness, wondering if things will ever get better, often tempted to believe they won’t. But the good news for these weary believers is that Christ came (in part) to change us. And he has given us everything we need to that end. But how does it happen? Listen as Pastor Luke preaches on 2 Corinthians ...
Glory

What gets you out of bed in the morning? In order to get moving, something has to grip your heart. Maybe it’s a new job, a new goal, that first cup of coffee. In Habakkuk 2, we find a better source of hope, of strength, of power to grip your heart. To move you. To get you out of bed. “For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD as the waters cover the sea.” (ESV) Li...

How do you finish well? What does that even look like? Do we measure it by achieved goals? Or by the legacies we leave? Scores of people who have achieved their goals remain unsatisfied, and even once-great legacies can change when viewed through the ever-shifting lenses of time and culture. And all people, no matter how successful, reach the same end... How can we finish well if we all die? As...

Thank you
Wonderful, beautiful sermon.
Wasn't it?
This is such an excellent sermon! So well done!
Excellent sermon, as always,even 2+ years later.
Roles of church members 1. Submit to them Heb 13:17 (pertains to spiritual things) 2. 1 Peter 4:10 to serve 3. To go out and serve Jesus in our calling (vocation) 4. Show and tell Jesus as you go (witness) 5. Pray for your leaders
Acts 6 the institution of deacons
1 Peter 5:17 elders who rule and preach (2 distinct roles)
1 Sam 12:23; Acts 6
Roles: 1. Represents the people before God (praying) 2. Warns them of the statutes and Laws (teaching) 3. Others to judge people (as conflict arise)
Means: 1. The people choose 2. Qualified men 3. The existing leader appoints
Deu 1:13 choose for your tribes and I will appoint them; Acts 6:3 pick from among you
Reasons of plurality: 1. The needs of the community - to inquire of God, disputes 2. The needs of a growing community 3. The limits of leadership
Necessity of plurality - to prevent a dictator like the pope
1 Peter 5; 1 Tim 3; Acts 20 undershepherds
Jer 3:15 I will give you shepherds
Necessity, means and roles of plurality
Wow! Well done! Excellent sermon!!!
1. Enter in 2. Depend on God 3. Give Him the Glory
Spiritual dimensions of things = primary cause vs secondary cause. God is the primary cause

Is it really just shame? Is nakedness not sin?
God works not despite suffering; but, in and through it
Famine is a sign of the brokenness of the present world
1. God has made big promises 2. In the world, you will have trouble 3. Through trouble, God will fulfill His promises
Lack of debate does not mean we are united
6 keys to practical Christian unity: 1. Begin with grace v.1 = joy in God and the gospel; grace is the mode of Christian unity 2. Look to the model v.5-11 = grace is the model of Christian unity 3. Remember the goal 4. Practice the pattern v. 3-4 = through humility 5. Hold on to hope 6. Rely on the Spirit
Denominations enable Christians to express unity with like minded Christians
Aspects to unity: 1. Doctrinal unity 2. Objective unity = united in Christ 3. Practical unity = common purpose
