    Proverbs 7 | How Does That Happen? - Harry Walls

    How do good people end up making choices they never thought they would make? Proverbs 7 gives us a sobering picture of the path to moral compromise and shows that failure rarely happens all at once. It begins when we become weak in the Word, fail to learn from life, leave our convictions unsettled, flirt with temptation, and underestimate the power and appeal of sin. In this sermon, we look at the warning signs that lead toward compromise and the practical steps we can take to guard our lives. Proverbs 7 challenges us to treasure the truth, cultivate non-negotiable convictions, pursue accountability, practice walking away from temptation, and seriously consider the consequences of our choices. The question isn’t simply how someone else could fall—it’s whether we are building the kind of convictions today that will keep us from walking down the same path tomorrow.

    Psalm 8 | What Is Man? - Jonny Ardavanis

    What does it mean to be human, and what gives our lives meaning, value, and purpose? Psalm 8 answers those questions by first turning our attention away from ourselves and toward the God who made us. We cannot truly understand who we are until we understand who He is. Though we are small against the vastness of creation, we are not insignificant. The God who created and rules the heavens is mindful of us. He made us in His image, crowned humanity with glory and honor, and gave us a purpose within His creation. Ultimately, Psalm 8 points us beyond ourselves to Jesus—the majestic God who took on humanity, came to save sinners, died, and rose again. In Him, we find the answer not only to “What is man?” but also to why we are here and where our hope is found. Key Points: 1. The Majesty of God 2. The Mindfulness of God 3. The Mission of Man 4. The Majesty of God

    Psalm 63 | Satisfied in the Wilderness - Jonny Ardavanis

    What sustains a believer when life falls apart? When betrayal, loss, disappointment, and suffering strip away every earthly comfort, where do we turn? Psalm 63 gives us a remarkable glimpse into the heart of David during one of the darkest seasons of his life. Fleeing into the wilderness, pursued by his own son and surrounded by uncertainty, David doesn't simply endure his circumstances—he discovers that God's presence is more satisfying than anything this world could ever offer. In this sermon, we explore what it looks like to hunger for God above all else, to find delight in His steadfast love, and to worship Him even when nothing around us has changed. David's words remind us that the deepest satisfaction isn't found in comfort, success, or changing circumstances, but in knowing and experiencing the living God. Even in the wilderness, God's people can be filled with hope, strengthened by His presence, and anchored by the confidence that His love is better than life itself. Whether you're walking through a season of suffering, longing for a deeper relationship with Christ, or simply desiring a greater appetite for God, Psalm 63 offers a powerful reminder that the Lord is enough. As David lifts his eyes above the wilderness, we're invited to do the same—trusting that one day every trial will end, every wrong will be made right, and God's people will forever rejoice in His presence and His unfailing love. Key Points: 1. David's Desire 2. David's Delight 3. David's Devotion 4. David's Dependence 5. David's Destiny

    Psalm 51 | Create In Me A Clean Heart - Jonny Ardavanis

    After his sin is exposed, David doesn't try to excuse himself or minimize his guilt - he runs to the mercy of God. In Psalm 51, we see the prayer of a broken man who knows that forgiveness alone isn't enough. He longs for a clean heart, renewed joy, the nearness of God's presence, and a life that once again reflects the glory of the One he has sinned against. This sermon explores David's journey from conviction to restoration and reminds us that true joy is never found in sin, but in fellowship with God. It also reveals what God has always desired most - not outward religion, but a humble, broken, and contrite heart that depends completely on Him. Through the greater Son of David, Jesus Christ, the mercy David pleaded for is fully and freely offered to all who come in repentance and faith. Key Points: 1. David Recognizes His Need 2. David Thirsts for God's Presence 3. David Understands the Source of All True Joy 4. David Commits to Living Wholly and Solely for God 5. David Grasps What God Is Really After

    Psalm 51/32 | The Curse of a Calloused Conscience - Jonny Ardavanis

    Psalm 51 records one of the darkest seasons in David's life, yet it also reveals the immeasurable mercy of God toward broken sinners. After attempting to silence his conscience and conceal his sin, David experienced the misery that always follows unrepentance. His story serves as both a warning and an invitation: a warning against hardening our hearts, and an invitation to find cleansing through genuine repentance. A calloused conscience doesn't happen overnight. It is formed one compromise, one excuse, and one act of disobedience at a time. In this message, we examine how sin hardens the heart, why a violated conscience brings misery, and why God's conviction is one of the greatest evidences of His grace. Key Points: 1. What is the conscience? 2. The curse of a calloused conscience 3. The fruit of a calloused conscience 4. The hope for a pricked conscience Drawing from Psalm 51 and Psalm 32, this sermon explores the devastating progression of sin, the spiritual and emotional misery of a violated conscience, and the gracious work of God in bringing sinners to repentance. David's life reminds us that concealed sin never brings peace, but confession and repentance lead to forgiveness, cleansing, and restored fellowship with God. Whether you are struggling with guilt, battling hidden sin, or seeking to better understand the biblical role of the conscience, this message points to the only true hope for a wounded soul: the mercy of God through Jesus Christ, whose blood cleanses the conscience and makes sinners white as snow.

    Psalm 51 | David's Plea For Mercy - Jonny Ardavanis

    In Psalm 51, David—the man after God's own heart—stands exposed by his sin with no excuses, no self-defense, and no confidence in his own righteousness. Instead, he throws himself completely upon the mercy of God. This sermon explores David's broken confession, revealing what true repentance looks like and why God's mercy is the only hope for guilty sinners. Ultimately, Psalm 51 points beyond David to the greater Son of David, Jesus Christ, whose sacrifice provides the cleansing, forgiveness, and restoration every sinner desperately needs. Sermon Points: 1. David cries out for mercy 2. David is conscious of the enormity of sin 3. David detests hypocrisy 4. David longs for purity

    "Living On Mission" - Brett Zamroz

    What compels someone to spend their life making Christ known? In this message, we examine the heart of the Apostle Paul and the biblical principles that shaped his ministry. Beginning with Paul's deep burden for the lost in Romans 9, we then walk through key passages in 2 Corinthians to discover the convictions that fueled his faithfulness. Whether you serve in ministry or simply desire to live more intentionally for Christ, this sermon offers a clear biblical vision for living on mission—remaining faithful to God's Word, keeping the glory of the gospel at the center, proclaiming Christ above ourselves, walking by faith rather than feelings, and living in a way that removes obstacles to the gospel. Key Points: 1. Do not peddle the Word of God. 2. Never lose sight of the glory of the message. 3. Proclaim Christ and leave the results in His hands. 4. Walk by faith, not by "feel." 5. Determine to put no obstacle in anyone's way.

    Luke 10:25-37 | The Good Samaritan - Brandon Wolf

    The parable of the Good Samaritan is one of Jesus' most familiar teachings, but its primary message reaches far deeper than simply encouraging kindness. In this sermon through Luke 10:25–37, we examine Jesus' encounter with the lawyer who asked, "What must I do to inherit eternal life?" and uncover how Christ exposes the danger of self-righteousness, self-deception, and trusting in our own goodness before God. As Jesus reveals the true demands of God's law—to love the Lord with all your heart and to love your neighbor as yourself—we are confronted with a standard none of us can meet on our own. Yet rather than leaving us in despair, the passage points us to the only One who perfectly fulfilled the law and offers forgiveness, mercy, and new life through His grace. Whether you've followed Christ for years or are still wrestling with life's biggest questions, this message is an invitation to examine your heart, abandon self-reliance, and rest in the finished work of Jesus Christ.
