    The Blessing That Names Us

    Pastor Bill VanderWerp explores how the ancient Aaronic Blessing from Numbers 6 places God's name on His people, connecting it directly to the ethical weight of the Third Commandment against misrepresenting His name. By applying this historical Hebrew covenant to the modern church, the sermon challenges listeners to consider whether their daily lives bring clarity or confusion to the character of the God they claim to represent.

    Husbands and Wives in the Home (part 2)

    Pastor Dennis explores the cultural and historical realities that shaped the early church's instructions on family and worship. This message looks at the legal structures of the ancient Roman household, original Greek terminology, and the local regional influences Paul was addressing in his correspondence, reframing traditional ideas around authority and relationships between men and women.

    Husbands and Wives in the Home (part 1)

    Today's sermon explores the biblical relationship between husbands and wives, framing marriage not as a model for power or decision-making, but as a testimony of Christ’s self-sacrificial love for the church. By examining Paul’s instructions to the early churches, it calls believers to prioritize mutual submission and service, viewing their relationships as a way to push back against the ramifications of the fall.

    Men and Women in the World

    Pastor Dennis explores Genesis 2 and examines the fundamental design of human relationships and the unique, complementary strengths found in the partnership of men and women. By looking at the Hebrew concept of the ezer, or "strong ally," this message challenges us to see one another as peers created to reflect the image of God together.

    The God Who Moves First

    This morning at Sunrise, we celebrated the baptism of Pastor Dennis’ first grandchild, Ellie Lou, drawing together Scripture, covenant, and the long story of God’s faithfulness across generations. Through this sacrament, we were reminded that God moves first in love, keeping His promises from parent to child and from family to family. Closing Song: Victory in Jesus

    I am/we are image bearers of God

    Today, Dennis shares that every person equally bears the image of God, and Scripture does not teach a universal hierarchy that restricts women from leadership, teaching, or authority. Sunrise Ministries affirms this biblical vision, rejecting male‑headship as a created‑order mandate and embracing men and women as equal partners in every level of ministry, just as the New Testament church modeled.

    Is there hope?

    This Easter Sunday, Pastor Dennis highlighted how the resurrection story is carried forward by the women who stayed faithful when prominent disciples fled, showing that God often works through those the world overlooks. Their courage is the doorway to hope, reminding us that resurrection happens when ordinary people simply show up and do what they can.   Worship Setlist: Glorious Day We Crown You Who Else The Blood
