The Gospel is From God - Galatians 1:11-2:10
2w ago00:23:08Tap to summarizeIn Galatians 1:11–2:10, Paul presents the evidence that the gospel he preached did not originate with people but was revealed by Jesus Christ himself. Through his dramatic conversion, his limited consultation with Peter, and the affirmation of the other apostles, Paul demonstrates that the message of salvation by grace is truly from God. This sermon explores why we can have complete confidence in the gospel, resist false teaching, and stand firm in the good news that Christ died and rose again to bring forgiveness, assurance, and eternal life to all who trust in him.

Genesis: Covenant Obedience - Genesis 17
Jun 800:24:48Tap to summarizeIn Genesis 17, God renews his promises to Abraham and calls him to respond with faithful obedience. Although Abraham and Sarah seem far too old to have the promised son, God proves that nothing is impossible for him. This sermon explores the relationship between God’s grace and our response: we don’t obey in order to earn God’s promises, but because we have received them. The covenant sign of circumcision pointed to a heart devoted to God, and ultimately to Jesus Christ, through whom God’s promises are fulfilled. Because we have been saved by grace, we are called to trust God and live for him.

Genesis: The God who Hears and Sees - Genesis 16
Jun 100:24:54Tap 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
May 2400:29:54Tap 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
May 1100:23:32Tap 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.

The God who Promises: The Call of Abraham - Genesis 12
May 300:27:22Tap to summarizeFrom the chaos of Genesis 1–11 to one man in Genesis 12, this episode traces God’s bold plan to rescue a broken world. “The Call of Abraham” unpacks God’s surprising choice, his sweeping promises, and Abraham’s radical response. Can God really be trusted? His words say yes and history seals it. See how every promise points forward to Jesus, where blessing reaches all nations. This isn’t blind faith; it’s grounded trust in a faithful God.
