In this sermon we will finish Jesus' Sermon on the Plain. Luke 6:43-49 talks about how important it is that our faith be lived out in our actions. If we produce good fruit by obeying Jesus, then we reveal that we have a good heart. We have been changed by God and are secure on a firm foundation. But if our lives do not reflect Jesus, because we do not obey His words, then we are building on a foundation of earth that will lead to destruction.

In this sermon we return to Jesus' sermon in Luke 6:37-42. In this passage, Jesus talks about how His people are to avoid prideful judgments, because all people are sinners. Instead, they should practice helpful discernment by looking in the mirror and acting against their own sin first, before examining the fruit in the lives of others.

In this sermon we will look at one of the most difficult teachings Jesus ever gave us in Luke 6:27-36. He tells us that we are to love our enemies. That's not easy, but it is based on the way that God first loved us when we were His enemies. As Romans 5:8 says, "While we were still sinners, Christ died for us."

Are you blessed? Are you sure? Luke 6:20-26 will challenge our idea of what true blessing really means.

In this sermon we will look at Jesus choosing His 12 apostles in Luke 6:12-19. After that, we then get to watch this new ministry team in action. Jesus didn't choose the best and brightest, but those He wanted and needed for His mission. His team is full of many different, diverse people working for the same kingdom: the Kingdom of God. Have we joined this new team?

After a busy week at VBS, this sermon will be a good time to talk about rest from Luke 6:1-11.

This passage will tell us that the Lord has given us a Sabbath rest for our good and so that we may do good for others. We can enjoy this rest because of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

In this sermon we'll look at the new life Jesus offers sick sinners through trust in Him. He provides the cure for those who know that they fall short of God's glory. The cure is found through trusting in Him.

Elder Tom Toone preaches from Luke 5:17-26 on the account of Jesus healing a paralytic. This passage will teach us about friendship, faith, forgiveness, and fortitude.

Stan Smith preaches on Luke 5:12-16. This account of Jesus cleansing a leper will encourage us to see Jesus for who He really is.

The story of Jesus calling His first disciples (in Luke 5:1-11) will challenge us to pledge our allegiance to the founder of our faith: Jesus Christ. In Him, we become part of a new people, a new nation, called to fish for people and point them toward saving faith in Christ.

Luke 4:31-44 will tell us that Jesus has authority. What does that mean? He had power that impacted His teaching, His encounters with demons, and His healing. Yet, Jesus emphasized His teaching ministry as the main purpose of His ministry. His authority is still with us today through the presence of His Holy Spirit and His Word.

In this sermon we'll look at the story of Jesus being rejected by His hometown in Luke 4:16-30. This passage shows us that Jesus has good news for those in low places and for outsiders. But that good news may be rejected by those who do not like how Jesus changes the status quo of this world.

In this sermon we will look at the temptation of Jesus from Luke 4:1-15. Unlike the first man, Adam, Jesus did not fall to sin. He shows us how to resist temptation through trusting the Word, putting God first, and interpreting the Bible in a way that honors the Lord. Jesus' victory over sin and His death on our behalf makes it possible for us to know God and follow Him.

Luke 3:21-38 will switch our focus from John the Baptist to Jesus. This passage will show us that Jesus is both the Son of God (fully God) and the Son of Man (fully human). Since Jesus is the Son of God, He will one day bring God's judgment because He pleases His Heavenly Father. Since He is the Son of Man, He can understand what we go through.

In this sermon, we'll talk about John the Baptist and his message of repentance from Luke 3:1-20. John called people to repent and prepare for Jesus by bearing fruit and acting justly. Even though John experienced persecution, he kept his focus on the coming One (Jesus) who would be even mightier than him.

Elder Josh Wines brings us back to the Gospel of Luke. We will discover more about who Jesus is through Luke 2:41-52 and its description of Jesus' boyhood visit to the temple in Jerusalem.

Elder Dan preaches on God's providence from Romans 8:28. God is in control and is over all things, so we should trust Him.

We will start a new sermon series on the Gospel of Luke. This sermon will be an introduction to the book and the first two chapters, focusing on Luke 1:1-4. We can trust what Luke writes about Jesus because he is presenting an orderly account of Jesus' life based on eyewitness testimony. This book should give us certainty about the truth of Jesus Christ.

Elder Daniel Long will be preaching on Matthew 11:28-30. He will be unpacking what it is like to take Christ's yoke and apply it to our daily living. As you prepare for the message, please read the passage and ask yourself: "What is the rest that Christ offers?" "Am I experiencing that rest?"

Elder Adam Paul shares the story of the resurrection of Lazarus from John 11:1-44. Through this story, we will learn that we can trust God because He is a God of love, life, and restoration.

As you prepare for the message, please read the passage and ask yourself: What things am I tempted to put my hope in instead of God? What comfort and assurance does Jesus bring into my life?
