Walking with God as You Wait

Media, Psalms: Walking With God, Sermons | by Pastor Justin Keogh

Psalms: Walking With God

We continue in our series of sermons on the Psalms that will run in parallel to our series on Romans. Its purpose is to help us learn from the psalmists what it means to faithfully walk with God through the ups-and-downs of life in a world marred by sin. Today, in Psalm 130, we see how to draw near to God by acknowledging and confessing our sin, hoping in His Word, and waiting faithfully for and with Him.

In Fact, Christ Has Been Raised

Good Friday & Easter, Media, Sermons | by Pastor Adam Sinnett

Good Friday & Easter

On Good Friday we remembered Jesus’ substitutionary death on the cross. Today, on Easter, we celebrate Jesus’ climactic victory over the grave through his resurrection. But, did he rise? How do we know? Can we know? Even if he did, what difference does it make for us today? These are the questions the Apostle Paul addresses head-on in 1 Cor. 15:12-20. Let’s dive in together…

Good Friday 2020

Good Friday & Easter, Media, Sermons | by Pastor Adam Sinnett

Good Friday marks the day that Jesus was unlawfully tried and brutally murdered on a cross outside Jerusalem, nearly 2,000 years ago. It can seem so far removed from our lives—historically and culturally—that we simply dismiss it as a mere footnote of history. But, it is not a footnote. Good Friday marks the culmination of the redemptive promises of God in the substitutionary death of Jesus, to rescue all who place their faith in him.

Abraham, The Father of All Who Believe

Media, Romans, Sermons | by Pastor Adam Sinnett

Romans

We continue our study of the most influential, life-changing, worldview-shaping letter ever written—Romans. It is a timeless, divinely-inspired masterpiece on the joy-filled-life-as-it-should-be freedom found in Jesus. Today, in 4:9-12, Paul continues to reveal the multi-faceted beauties of justification by faith. This is a good opportunity to zoom out, take stock of where we’ve been, and ask, “Why does Paul emphasize justification by faith like he does? Why take so much time to drive this truth home?”

Defending Justification by Faith

Media, Romans, Sermons | by Pastor Adam Sinnett

Romans

We continue our study of the most influential, life-changing, worldview-shaping letter ever written—Romans. It is a timeless, divinely-inspired masterpiece on the joy-filled-life-as-it-should-be freedom found in Jesus. In 4:1-8, Paul defends justification by faith in a surprising way-by appealing to Abraham and David. In this, he demonstrates that justification by faith is not a new idea, but God’s ancient way of counting the ungodly as righteous (4:5).

Questioning Justification by Faith

Media, Romans, Sermons | by Pastor Adam Sinnett

Romans
We continue our study of the most influential, life-changing, worldview-shaping letter ever written—Romans. It is a timeless, divinely-inspired masterpiece on the joy-filled-life-as-it-should-be freedom found in Jesus. Today, in 3:27-31, Paul pauses to defend “justification by faith” by addressing common objections. He explains that justification by faith: transforms how we understand salvation, clarifies who salvation is for, and empowers us to live for God. But, first, we need to explore the nature of faith.

The Gift Of God’s Righteousness

Media, Romans, Sermons | by Pastor Adam Sinnett

Romans

Today we continue our study of the most influential, life-changing, worldview-shaping letter ever written Romans. It is a timeless, divinely-inspired masterpiece on the joy-filled-life-as-it-should-be freedom found in Jesus. Today, in 3:21-26, the terrain shifts dramatically as Paul answers the question: In light of our sinful condition (see 1:18-3:20), how can we be made right with God? Is it even possible? In response, he begins to unravel the wonder and glory of justification by faith alone, through grace alone, in Christ alone.

The Unrighteousness of All People

Media, Romans, Sermons | by Pastor Adam Sinnett

Romans

This morning we continue our study of the most influential, life-changing, worldview-shaping letter ever written—Romans. It is a timeless, divinely-inspired masterpiece on the joy-filled-life-as-it-should-be freedom found in Jesus. We are currently working through a crucial section (1:18-3:20) in which Paul reveals God’s just wrath on human unrighteousness in order to demonstrate the need of every human for a Savior. In 3:9-20 Paul concludes this important section by confronting us with the sobering reality that all people are “under sin.”
