We started our next Bible study series tonight, embarking on Paul’s letter to the Ephesians. Join us as we consider what on the surface appears to be a rather mundane greeting and yet is actually so much more.

“He Gets Us”

A Profound Need
A Powerful Savior
A Persistent Misunderstanding

In this sermon, Pastor Tony delves into Matthew 8:28–34, exploring the themes of “Opened Doors and Closed Hearts.” Listen as he unpacks Christ’s encounter with the demon-possessed men in the region of the Gadarenes.

Join us as Moses steps on the scene in the Biblical narrative. Expectations are raised and dashed. What will become of this man?

In this sermon, Pastor Tony delves into Matthew 8:23–27, where Jesus calms the storm. Join us as we explore, our need for rescue, our help, and our response.

Why does Jesus actively discourage would-be followers? Two encounters give Jesus the opportunity to bring clarity. Following him is costly. Join us as we consider the humility, the rejection, and the paradox of following Jesus. He is at once both the suffering servant of Isaiah and the Son of Man of Daniel 7. What will you do with the challenge he lays before you?

What if Jesus doesn’t heal me? As Matthew continues to narrate Jesus’ healing ministry we see him again heal by touch and by word, yet Matthew peels back the curtain and sets it in the context of Jesus’ larger mission. As he does so we find that Jesus everywhere transcends what we expect, so that even when he does not deliver us from this light and momentary affliction, he nevertheless prepares for us an eternal weight of glory!

Join us for an encouraging discussion of Christ’s Exaltation, beginning with a look at Psalm 110.

WLC 51–56

Join us as we continue to explore the catechism’s exposition of the work of Christ. Moving on from the three offices of Prophet, Priest, and King, we next consider his estate of humiliation, its extent, and the powerful comfort we may draw from considering its detail. At the end we briefly introduce Christ’s exaltation, but will continue to develop that discussion in a future class, Lord willing.
