In Romans 6:8–14, Paul reminds us that because we have died and risen with Christ, sin no longer has dominion over us. We are called to consider ourselves dead to sin and alive to God, and to present every part of ourselves to him as instruments of righteousness rather than to sin. Listen as Pastor Chris unpacks what it means to know yourself as a new creation and walk in the power of grace.

Proverbs 31 presents the portrait of an excellent woman, one whose character, work ethic, and compassion flow from a deep fear of the Lord. On this Mother’s Day, we’re invited to praise the excellent women in our lives, to seek this kind of woman, and to pursue becoming her. Listen as Pastor Chris walks through this beloved passage and calls us to honor, find, and embody the godly woman Proverbs 31 describes.


Romans 6:1-7 reminds us that sin is not just a habit to break, but a master that once held us in chains. For the Christian, the old self that was enslaved to sin has died and been raised with Christ to walk in newness of life. Listen as Pastor Chris shows us how knowing who we truly are in Christ is the foundation for fighting temptation and living in the freedom we’ve been given.


Romans 5:18–21 presents three sharp contrasts that show us both the depth of what we deserved and the stunning greatness of what we’ve received. Where Adam’s one act brought death to all, Jesus’ one act of righteous obedience brings justification and life. Listen as Pastor Chris walks us through these powerful contrasts and the incredible truth that where sin has increased, grace has increased all the more and that grace reigns supreme through Jesus Christ our Lord.


In Romans 5:12–17 we see two men whose individual actions changed the course of humanity: Adam, whose transgression brought condemnation and death to all, and Jesus, whose grace brought justification and life to all who receive it. Though Adam’s failure plunged every one of us under the reign of death, the free gift of Christ restores us to reign in life alongside Him forever. Listen as Pastor Chris calls us to receive the abundance of grace found only in Jesus Christ.

Psalm 95 opens with a call to worship, inviting us to sing, shout, and bow before the God who made us and lovingly shepherds us. The psalm then takes a sobering turn, cautioning us not to harden our hearts like the Israelites in the wilderness, who began well but failed to finish in faith. Listen as Riley Seid challenges us to pursue a whole-hearted devotion to the Lord who has never stopped loving us.
