Faith and the Righteous Sinner — Bob Whitaker (13 Aug 2017)

We usually think in terms of contrast – right or wrong, good and evil, righteous vs. unrighteous. However, we are also aware that life is more nuanced than those simple categories. This is also true of faith because faithfulness and unfaithfulness reside in the same people. Individuals are both righteous and unrighteous. This is especially […]

Listening to God — Bob Whitaker (6 Aug 2017)

Our passage describes a story of the young boy Samuel, who was surprised to hear the voice of God. Listening for the voice of God is an important part of walking by faith, and Samuel is an example of a person who listened to God. Of course, his historical situation and his prophetic role were […]

It Wasn’t the Haircut — Josiah Leuenberger (23 Jul 2017)

God liberated the people of Israel from Philistine oppressors through the feats of strength of the well-known Judge Samson, but Samson’s story includes not only displays of his divinely-given strength but also his self-destructive sin. Consider with us on Sunday all that his story means for us as we seek to live faithfully before God […]

Hesitant Faith — John Mangrum (16 Jul 2017)

Judges 4:1-10. Barak was reluctant to obey God’s command to rally troops and attack Sisera’s well-fortified army, but he did step out in faith and is named as one of the faithful in Hebrews 11.

Not only faith, but faith that allowed them to experience the deliverance God had prepared for them. This week we look at these three episodes and the distinct qualities of the faith on display, praying […]

Faith in Egypt — Dan Waugh (2 Jul 2017)

Hebrews 11:23-29. Moses found his faith living in the hostile land of Egypt, and his faith led him to make some remarkable choices. While we don’t worry about Pharaohs and crocodiles in the Nile, we have a lot to learn from Moses and his faith-based calculations regarding what is truly valuable.

A Faith Shaped by Adversity — Bob Whitaker (18 Jun 2017)

Genesis 50:15-21. Most people don’t like adversity. We usually prefer ease and tranquility. We all know it is not realistic to expect this all the time, so it’s important to ask questions about how to deal with adversity. If there was ever an expert on living with adversity, it was Joseph. Let’s learn from him […]

God’s Unexpected Method of Forming Faith — Josiah Leuenberger (11 Jun 2017)

Hebrews 11:1-2, 20-22. This week’s message explores the life of Jacob – the self-reliant deceiver who eventually becomes the namesake of God’s family of faith. Join us as we explore how God worked blessing into Jacob’s life in the midst of his sin and shaped him into a person who depended on Him amidst the […]

Sometimes Christ is hidden deeply within the story, but he is always there. Come encounter the story within the story as we look at the […]
