In this part of Genesis, we see Abraham interceding for the people of Sodom. Pastor Tanner discusses how this is a foreshadowing of the better Abraham, Jesus, who intercedes for people from every tribe, nation, and tongue on the face of the earth from generation to generation.

This week, Pastor Tanner continues walking us through Genesis, and we see a God who remains relentlessly faithful to deeply flawed and doubting people. Through Abraham and Sarah’s story, we’re reminded that God’s promises do not rest on human strength, but on a God who continually shows us mercy, patience, and grace in the face of our unfaithfulness.

On this Easter Sunday, Pastor Tanner talks about the resurrection of Jesus and what it means for us personally. In 1 Corinthians 15, Paul reminds us that the resurrection is foundational to our faith. It means that sin is defeated, forgiveness is real, and we can have a relationship with God now and forever.

As Pastor Tanner preaches through Genesis 17, we are reminded that salvation has never rested on human faithfulness, but on God's covenant grace.

Pastor Matt walks us through Genesis 16, where we see Sarai failing to trust God's promise of a son and taking matters into her own hands, which does not go well. This passage assures that God is aware of the suffering of the overlooked and brokenhearted, and He works to bring good from broken situations. 

This week, Pastor Tanner walks us through Genesis 15, and Abraham's story shows us that faith is not based on what we do, but on what God has done for us.

In this sermon, Pastor Tanner walks us through Genesis 14. We see Abram’s compassion toward the undeserving and how he acts as a kinsman-redeemer, pointing us forward to Jesus, the better Abram, who leaves glory to rescue His enemies. We are also introduced to Melchizedek, the king of righteousness and peace, who blesses Abram and foreshadows a greater Priest King to come.

In Tanner's sermon from Genesis 13, he contrasts the paths of Abram and Lot. One path is marked by faith and trust in God’s promises, the other by short-term gain. In this text, we’re reminded that we can trust in God and His promises and rest in His sovereignty.

This week in Genesis, Pastor Tanner walks us through the story of Abram and Sarai in Egypt, where we are reminded that God’s faithfulness doesn’t depend on the strength of ours.

This week, guest pastor Brian Carroll talks with us about identity and how easy it is to build our identity on something that is not true. However, as Christians, when we accept that Jesus's sacrifice is a complete payment, and we cannot do anything to make ourselves more holy, then we are able to fix our eyes on Jesus and taste and see the reality of our identity in Christ.

Pastor Tanner teaches through Revelation 12 where we see the Christmas Nativity is more than a peaceful scene at the manger. This chapter shows that Christ’s coming fulfills God’s promises and secures victory for His people, even as the battle continues in the present age.

In week 4 of Advent, Pastor Matt walks us through Matthew 2, where we see Magi come to bring gifts and worship Jesus as King.

In this week of Advent, we see the humble arrival of Christ and angels delivering the good news to lowly shepherds. We are reminded that Jesus came to offer us true peace.

In this second week of Advent, we look at the arrival of Christ through the eyes of Mary. As we reflect on the incarnation, we are called to respond as Mary did with joyful surrender, and we trust King Jesus who came to save us and will come again to reign forever.

In the first week of Advent, Pastor Tanner walks us through Isaiah's prophecy where we see a King who brings light into the darkness, is Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace.
