Mark Booker | 2 Corinthians 8:1-5 | This opening sermon in the new series from 2 Corinthians 8-9, "The Grace of Giving," considers the exemplary generosity of the churches in Macedonia. We look at the circumstance, the manner, and the secret of their generosity. The goal of this series is to lead us toward lives that are more aligned with God's kingdom in how we relate to and steward money and possessions.

Mark Booker | Proverbs 31:10-31 | We end our series on the prologue in Proverbs by examining the poem on the valiant, or excellent, wife at the end of Proverbs. Instead of reading this text primarily as the gold standard for womanhood, this sermon encourages us to see this poem as a call and challenge to all of us - whether male or female, young or old, rich or poor - to be people who fear the Lord and who live wisely. As such, it provides a fitting end to the book of Proverbs and to this series on Proverbs 1-9.

Mark Booker | Proverbs 9:1-6, 13-18 | At the end of the prologue in Proverbs (chs. 1-9), we are presented with two rival banquets: one from Woman Wisdom and the other from Dame Folly. This sermon examines the choice between the two, the nature of that choice, and how we might make the choice for wisdom.

Mark Booker | Proverbs 5:15-23 | We don't make much progress in life with God without delighting in him. This sermon offers four reasons that we struggle to delight in God and calls us back to the heart of the gospel.

Mark Booker | Proverbs 4:1-10 | The father calls the son to hear his instruction. This sermon examines the opposite of hearing: being wise in our own eyes and thus shutting our ears to instruction and rebuke. It also explores the heart disposition of one who hears, and presents one key test from Proverbs for discerning whether we are people who hear.

Mark Booker | Proverbs 3:5-12 | This text calls us to trust God and not ourselves, and it shows us the benefits this brings in our lives. To trust God is wise and leads to flourishing. It then explicitly addresses two circumstances in which we are tempted to stop trusting the Lord: in success and in hardship or suffering.

Mark Booker | Proverbs 4:10-19 | The other side of seeking wisdom is avoiding folly. This message exposes the two lies that make folly and evil so dangerous, and calls us back to the path of life before small steps lead somewhere we never intended to go.

Mark Booker | Proverbs 2:1-8 | If we love wisdom, we will seek wisdom. This sermon explores how we're encouraged to seek wisdom in the book of Proverbs, and it grounds this in the good news that God has sought us first in Jesus.

Mark Booker | Proverbs 4:5-10 | This message digs into why wisdom is portrayed as something to be desired, embraced, and loved - not just studied. We look at how rightly ordered love, and loving Jesus above all, is the key to the full and flourishing life for which we were made.

Mark Booker | Proverbs 1:1-7 | This introductory message to a series on Proverbs address the nature and scope of wisdom, how we acquire it, why it matters, and the governing principle of wisdom - the fear of the Lord.

Polo Kim | Luke 9:28-36 | In this look at the Transfiguration, we discover that real glory comes through suffering—and that Jesus doesn't just want us to admire that glory from a distance, but to be transformed by it ourselves.

Sandy L Willson | 1 Thessalonians 4:1-8 | The apostle Paul writes to a group of new Christians, urging them to live as representatives of the God who is faithful to his bride, which is the Church. Rev. Willson explores the three reasons we see in 1 Thessalonians 4 for living sexually moral lives, encouraging us to see that the way we live in our physical bodies reveals our love for the one who gave himself for us.

Sandy Willson | Proverbs 11:10-11; 14:34; 16:10-13; 29:2 Proverbs 14:34 tells us "Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people." What does this text, written to the kings of Israel millennia ago have to do with us living in a democracy in the 21st Century?

Adam Herndon | Philippians 1:3-11 | As Paul in the beginning of his letter to the Philippians gives thanks to God for the ministry of the Church at Philippi, we are called to be a people of gratitude, especially for one another as we partner together in the Gospel. We can be confident that Jesus, who began a good work in us, will be faithful to complete that work as we proclaim the Gospel. As we partner together we are called to pray for one another, that our love may abound more and more. As a church, we are to be a people of gratitude and prayer, placing our confidence in Jesus.

Polo Kim | 1 Kings 19:1-18 | While running away from the murderous Jezebel, Elijah ran into a deeper problem: himself. God gently invited him to turn his gaze from the problem to the LORD himself, who appeared in the "sound of a low whisper," reassuring Elijah that his nearness and all-sufficiency are enough.
