How is anyone supposed to call on a Savior they've never heard of?
No one believes without hearing. No one hears without a preacher. No one preaches without being sent.
In this sermon, we walk through Paul's logic step by step and ask a question that presses on every believer: how then, Lord? If salvation is available to everyone who calls, and calling depends on hearing, and hearing depends on someone going — where does that leave you?
This message is a call to stop waiting for the gospel to spread on its own and start being purposeful about proclaiming it — in your home, your neighborhood, and your daily life.
In this sermon from Luke 15:11-32, we walk through one of the most famous stories Jesus ever told and discover it's not really about a wayward son who wasted his inheritance. It's about a father whose love is running toward us before we ever make it home.
Whether you've spent your life in the far country chasing things that left you empty, or you've spent your life in the house keeping score and missing the party, this parable has a word for you: the Father is calling, and the door is open.
Most people think the Parable of the Good Samaritan is simply a story about helping others. But look closer—and you'll find something far more convicting, and far more freeing, than a lesson in neighborliness.
In this message from Luke 10:25–37, we trace the confrontation between Jesus and a lawyer who wanted to justify himself before God. Through the parable Jesus tells, we come face to face with the full demand of God's Law—love God with all your heart, and love your neighbor as yourself—and our complete failure to meet it.
But here is the gospel: we are not primarily the Samaritan in this story. We are the wounded man. Broken by sin, helpless, unable to save ourselves. And Jesus is the true and better Neighbor—the One who came to us when we were half dead in our trespasses, who did not pass us by, who bound our wounds through His death and resurrection, and who paid the full price of our rescue.
Because He came to us, we now go to others
The central point of this passage is simple but searching: the state of the soil determines the fate of the seed. The same Word. The same Sower. Four completely different outcomes — all determined by the condition of the ground.
This is the first sermon in our series on the Parables of Jesus.
In the final verses of Philippians, Paul does something remarkable — he ends with grace.
As we close our series in Philippians, we look at Paul's farewell benediction in Philippians 4:21–23 and discover that these last few words carry the full weight of the gospel. Through a simple greeting and a single benediction, Paul shows us three things the gospel produces in every life it touches: a new family, a new mission, and a new identity.
Whether you're wrapping up this series with us or discovering Philippians for the first time, this closing message is a reminder that the Christian life begins with grace and ends with grace — and everything in between is grace too.
