In this sermon, Pastor Clint preaches on Luke 12:13-34. In this passage, Jesus continues to speak about the fears that rule the heart. In this section of teaching, Jesus exposes the folly of coveting, warns against the futility of anxiety, and points us to the freedom of trust. Desire for provision and concern about the future are good and normal, as long as they are tethered to the Lord, trusting his providential care and provision. Disconnected from Him, these desires quickly devolve into fears that overwhelm the heart. Listen and be challenged to consider the folly and futility of the untethered heart.

In this sermon, Pastor Clint preaches Luke 12:1-12. Jesus exposes the folly of hypocrisy, warning that what is hidden will one day be revealed and that living for human approval is ultimately futile. He reorders His disciples’ fears, teaching them not to fear men who can only harm the body, but to fear God who holds eternal authority—while also assuring them of the Father’s tender care. Therefore, they must boldly acknowledge Him before others, trusting the Holy Spirit to help them stand firm when tested.

In this sermon, Pastor Kevin finishes Luke 11. Jesus confronts the Pharisees and lawyers for religious hypocrisy- meticulously cleaning the outside while their hearts remain full of greed, pride, and self-righteousness. The passage exposes the danger of outward religion without inward renewal and calls us to the only true remedy: a heart cleansed and made alive by Christ.

Pastor Clint preaches Luke 11:27-36. Jesus redefines true blessedness as believing and obeying God’s Word. He warns against a hard, sign-seeking heart, reminding His listeners that past generations responded to lesser revelation, while something far greater now stands before them. Finally, He presents Himself as the Light, teaching that our response to Him reveals whether our hearts are open and illuminated or closed in darkness.

In this sermon, Pastor Clint considers Luke 11:14–26. Jesus exposes the deeper heart issues behind people’s reactions to Him. He diagnoses hard hearts that stubbornly attribute God’s work to Satan, divided hearts that try to remain neutral toward Jesus while benefiting from His power, and empty hearts that experience moral reform without true allegiance to Him.

In this sermon, Pastor Kevin walks through Luke 11:1-13. Jesus teaches that prayer is not a passive ritual but a persistent, dependent pursuit of God, shaped by confidence in His character. Jesus urges His disciples to ask, seek, and knock with diligence, assuring them that perseverance in prayer is welcomed, not wearisome, to God. The passage grounds this invitation in God’s fatherly love: if earthly fathers give good gifts, how much more will our gracious Father delight to give what is truly good to His children.

In this sermon, Pastor Clint walks through Luke 10:25-42. In the parable of the Good Samaritan, Jesus calls his followers to a life of humble, sacrificial love of neighbor instead of self-justification. The story of Mary and Martha teaches us that the gospel is a call into the presence of Christ before it is a call to action.

Pastor Clint walks through Luke 10:1-24. Jesus sends His followers into the world with urgency, calling them to make the mission of God a priority and to rely on Him rather than their own resources. He reminds them that rejection is not a failure but a reality of faithfulness, and that people remain responsible for how they respond to the message. When the disciples return excited by visible results, Jesus redirects them to a deeper and steadier joy—not in influence, success, or outcomes, but in the assurance that they belong to God.

In our annual Vision Sermon, Pastor Clint walks thru Psalm 73. The Psalm Asaph’s journey from envy and confusion over the prosperity of the wicked to renewed clarity as he enters God’s presence and sees life from an eternal perspective. He learns that nearness to God, not outward success, is the true good, and that the apparent security of the wicked is fleeting compared to the lasting refuge of the Lord. At the start of a new year, this psalm helps reorient our hearts to measure life by faithful communion with God, reminding us that through the gospel Christ Himself is our portion—secured for us not by prosperity, but by grace.

In the final sermon of our Advent series, Pastor Clint considers the ascension and return of Christ, highlighting the reign of the risen King who intercedes for his people, sends the Spirit, and gives encouragement and assurance to weary and doubting hearts. Scripture points to the contrast between Christ’s first advent—humble and redemptive—and his second advent—glorious, physical, and judicial, unfolding according to God’s perfect order and timing. In light of this hope, weary believers are invited to draw near with confidence, stand firm in faith, and live with expectant joy, knowing the reigning Christ will make all things new.
