"The Word Made Flesh" - John 1:14

Join us as we delve into the deeper meaning of Christmas, exploring how the Apostle John narrates the arrival of Christ in a unique way. Unlike the traditional accounts that focus on Mary, Joseph, and the nativity scene, John's Gospel zeroes in on the true essence of the season – the Word becoming flesh and dwelling among us. Discover the profound theological insights into why Christmas is not just about a miraculous birth but about the divine presence among humanity.

"The Snake Crusher" - Genesis 3:14-15

We can think of a lot of names the bible gives otJesus, especially around Christmas time. However, one often overlooked is the first title given to Him, the snake crusher. This week, we begin a 3-week series diving into what the baby in the manager was, what he came to do, and what he will come back to accomplish!  

“Our Needs, Gods Glory, Others Good” - Philippians 4:18-23

In this final sermon on the Book of Philippians, we revisit the humble beginnings of the church in Philippi, founded through a diverse group of believers – Lydia, a demon-possessed slave girl, and a Roman jailer. 
The overarching message of the book is that believers  be strengthened by Christ in every circumstance, from joyous beginnings to challenging trials. As Paul did for the Philippian church, we are also called to encourage and support one another, live sacrificially, and remain steadfast in our faith journey.

"Conflict and Joy" - Philippians 4:2-9

Join us as we dive into Philippians 4, exploring the intricate blend of conflict resolution and the pursuit of joy within the Christian community. Discover how the Apostle Paul advises addressing conflicts and cultivating a heart that rejoices in the Lord, despite life's tumultuous circumstances.
The episode also sheds light on the importance of relying on mature believers for mediation, as well as appealing to one's identity in Christ to overcome disagreements. It emphasizes gentleness, trust in God's promises, and the power of prayer as key elements for maintaining harmony and joy within the church body.
Ultimately, this episode encourages us to align our thoughts and actions with God's teachings, leading to true rejoicing, irrespective of external situations. Learn to ground your joy in unchangeable divine promises rather than fleeting earthly circumstances.

"A Warning and A Promise" - Philippians 3:17-21

"Their end is their destruction," Paul writes. What a stark phrase, yet he writes it with tears in his eyes. Paul wants to warn the church he loves that there is indeed a way that leads to destruction, but it is not their way. 

"The Mature Mind" - Philippians 3:12-16

What does it look like to think like a mature Christian? That is a question many have surely asked, but I think for some, the answer Paul gives is a bit surprising. It has little to do with what you have done or what you know but more to do with where you are going. 

"When Everything Is Nothing" - Philippians 3:1-11

What does the perfect spiritual resume look like in your mind? Whatever it is, the apostle Paul's was better. Yet, we find in this passage that Paul "counts it all as loss." Clinging not to what he does right or what he does wrong but to Christ alone.

"The Joy of Working" - Philippians 2:12-18

What joy is there in working? in Obedience? Most of us will spend our lives trying to get to a place where we can work less and do whatever we'd like to do. Paul has a very different take on the Christ-centered life, more than that, he knows that joy is not found in those things. 

"The Unshakeable Joy of Christ Proclaimed" - Philippians 1:12-18

What brings you joy? The apostle Paul finds himself in chains as he writes this letter to the Philippine church he loves, but that does not shake the joy He has both in Christ and in proclaiming him.
