Genesis: The God who Hears and Sees - Genesis 16
3d ago00:24:54Tap to summarizeIn Genesis 16, Abram and Sarai grow impatient with God's promises and take matters into their own hands, creating pain, conflict, and brokenness. Yet in the middle of human failure stands a God of extraordinary compassion. This sermon explores Hagar's story, the mistreated servant whom God sees, hears, and blesses. Far from overlooking the vulnerable, God reveals himself as the God who sees the broken-hearted and listens to their cries. Ultimately, Hagar's experience points us to Jesus, who came for the lowly, oppressed, and weary. Discover the assurance, comfort, and hope found in the God who sees you.

Genesis: God's Covenant - Genesis 15
2w ago00:29:54Tap to summarizeIn this sermon from Genesis 15, we see Abram wrestling with doubt, fear, and unanswered questions yet meeting a God who is utterly faithful. As God reassures Abram with covenant promises, we’re reminded that salvation and assurance don’t rest on our performance or feelings, but on God’s unchanging word fulfilled in Jesus. Discover how God’s covenant with Abram points forward to the cross, where Christ secures forgiveness, righteousness, and certainty for all who trust in him. Whatever fears or doubts you carry, hear God’s promise again: “Do not fear.” In Jesus, we can know for sure that God is faithful and entrust ourselves completely to him.

Genesis: Abram in Egypt - Genesis 12
3w ago00:23:32Tap to summarizeFaced with famine and fear, Abram doubts God’s promises, deceives Pharaoh, and places Sarai in danger to save himself. Yet despite Abram’s unfaithfulness, God remains faithful. In this sermon from St John’s Wishart, we explore how God rescues his people not because they are worthy, but because he is gracious. This passage points beyond Abram to the greater rescue found in Jesus Christ, where God proves once and for all that his promises rest not on our performance, but on his steadfast love and faithfulness.

Resurrected Bodies - 1 Corinthians 15
Apr 2800:20:26Tap to summarizeIn this sermon from 1 Corinthians 15:35–58, we explore the breathtaking hope of the resurrection body. Paul shows that what is now perishable, weak, and earthly will be raised imperishable, glorious, and spiritual through the power of God. Just as a seed is transformed into something far greater, so too will our bodies be renewed in Christ. Because Jesus has conquered sin and death, the grave has lost its sting and our future is secure. This hope calls us to stand firm, abound in the Lord’s work, and live knowing that nothing done for Christ is ever in vain.
