Transcribe →Welcoming Outsiders
3w ago00:40:23Tap to summarizeExodus 18 tells the surprising story of Jethro, a Midianite priest, joyfully worshiping the God of Israel and sharing a covenant meal with God's people. This passage reminds us that God has always been gathering a family from every nation. Our unity is not built on personality, politics, preferences, or background—it is a giftpurchased by Jesus Christ. In a divided world, discover how the gospel welcomes outsiders, forms a new family, and gives us a hope that reaches all the way to Revelation's great multitude around God's throne.
Transcribe →The Battle Belongs to the Dependent
4w ago00:44:00Tap to summarizeExodus 17 reminds us that God's people never outgrow their need for Him. As Israel battles Amalek, victory is tied not merely to Joshua's courage in the valley but to Moses' uplifted hands on the mountain. The passage exposes our instinct toward self-reliance and shows that true strength is found in dependence on God and in the support of His people. Ultimately, it points to Jesus, the true and better Moses, who continually intercedes for us and has declared war on sin, Satan, and death. Join us as we discover why dependence is not weakness but the pathway to lasting victory.
Transcribe →Is the Lord among us or not?
Jun 2000:55:45Tap to summarizeWhen life feels overwhelming and suffering seems arbitrary, it becomes easy to question God’s heart toward us. In Exodus 17:1–7, Israel stands in the wilderness thirsty, afraid, and accusing God: “Is the LORD among us or not?” Their struggle is one we know well. If God is sovereign, is he really still good in the midst of our suffering? Yet instead of abandoning his grumbling people, God responds with astonishing mercy. This wilderness story points us to Jesus Christ, the true Rock who was struck for sinners so that living water might flow to all who trust in him. Whether you are walking through suffering, disappointment, confusion, or spiritual dryness, this passage invites you to stop interpreting God through your circumstances and look to the cross, the true measure of God's love to sinners.
Transcribe →We Need Him, and He Is Here
Jun 1300:50:29Tap to summarizeAfter Israel's dramatic rescue from Egypt, they quickly discover that freedom does not mean independence. Through bitter water, daily manna, and repeated moments of need, God teaches His people a lesson they would spend the rest of their lives learning: we need Him, and He is here. This sermon explores why our desire for control leaves us frustrated, why God often uses seasons of weakness to draw us near, and how the manna ultimately points us to Jesus Christ, the true Bread of Life. If you have ever felt overwhelmed, out of control, oruncertain about the future, this passage offers hope. The God who knows your need has already provided what you need most in Christ.
Transcribe →Sing Until You See
Jun 600:47:19Tap to summarizeWhat do you do after God rescues you? In Exodus 15, Israel stands on the far shore of the Red Sea and breaks into song. Having witnessed God's power, love, and salvation, they respond with worship. Yet this song is about far more than a past victory. It teaches us that the God who has redeemed His people will continue to lead them. This message explores the relationship between worship, remembrance, and faith, showing how singing God's mighty acts lifts our eyes off ourselves and onto His majesty. Ultimately, the Song of Moses points us to Jesus Christ—the greater Redeemer who saves us through His death and resurrection and now lives to guide us safely home. Join us as we learn why God's people sing, why we gather to worship, and why we must keep singing until we see.
Transcribe →When God Leads You Into Your Greatest Fear
May 3000:48:47Tap to summarizeWhy would God lead His people into what looks like a dead end? In Exodus 14, Israel finds itself trapped between Pharaoh’s army and the Red Sea. What appears to be a disastrous mistake is actually the stage on which God will display His power and faithfulness. This message explores how fear and hopelessness can cause us to turn against the very people trying to help us, but also reveals the patience of a God who does not abandon His people in their weakness. As God parts the sea, defeats Israel’s enemies, and brings His people safely through the waters of judgment, we see a preview of the greater salvation found in Jesus Christ. Through His death and resurrection, Christ stands between us and the judgment we deserve, leading us safely through our greatest enemy—death itself. This sermon invites us to trust God when the road seems blocked, remember our union with Christ, and find freedom from fear in the God who fights for His people.
Transcribe →When Life Doesn’t Seem to Make Sense.
May 2300:45:22Tap to summarizeWhat do you do when God closes the door on a path that seemed good, right, and full of promise? In Exodus 13, God intentionally leads Israel away from the obvious path and into the wilderness. This message explores the painful reality that God’s ways often do not make sense to us in the moment. Through stories of disappointment, unanswered questions, and unexpected detours, we are reminded that God sees what we cannot see and knows what we do not know. Most importantly, this sermon points us to the deeper truth that what ultimately makes a path good is not that it is easy or understandable, but that God Himself walks it with us. From the wilderness of Exodus to the humility of Jesus washing His disciples’ feet, we see a Savior who calls us to trust Him even when we cannot yet understand where the path leads. His presence is enough, and in Him we find a safer guide than even the clearest road.
Transcribe →The God Who Makes Foreigners Family
May 1600:48:38Tap to summarizeIn Exodus 12–13, as Israel leaves Egypt, a surprising detail appears: a mixed multitude goes with them. Some want nothing to do with God, others want His blessings without His people, and still others are drawn to the community without truly surrendering to Him. But in the midst of it all, God reveals a stunning truth—there is a way for outsiders to come near. This message explores the different ways people respond to encountering God and shows how the Passover ultimately points us to Jesus Christ, the true Passover Lamb who was cut off so that foreigners, outsiders, and sinners could be welcomed into the family of God. More than a sermon about church attendance or community, this is a message about union with Christ, the beauty of the church, and the breathtaking grace of a Savior who makes strangers into sons and daughters.
