    Alive in the Spirit | Romans 8 Series | Romans 8:5-11 - Chris Richards || September 13

    We continue our series, Living the Declarations of Romans 8, with a life-changing truth: we are alive in the Spirit. Romans 8:5-11 asks us to consider the direction of our lives. Are we following the pull of control, comfort, and approval, or allowing the Holy Spirit to lead us into life and peace? Good intentions can't change your destination if you're traveling in the wrong direction. Through everyday examples of people-pleasing, conflict, and anxiety, this message explores how Jesus takes our sin, gives us His righteousness, and places His Spirit within us. For those who belong to Christ, struggling with sin doesn't mean returning to condemnation. The Spirit lovingly redirects us, reshapes our desires, and reminds us that the God who raised Jesus will raise us too. This week's invitation is a simple prayer: "Holy Spirit, I have life in you. Redirect me." Scripture references: Romans 8:5-11, 1 John 2:16 Second message in our series, Living the Declarations of Romans 8.

    Declared, Not Condemned | Romans 8 Series | Romans 8:1-4 - Chris Richards || September 6

    We kick off a brand-new series, Living the Declarations of Romans 8 — a chapter some theologians call the greatest in all of Scripture. Chris Richards opens with one of the most liberating verses in the Bible: "There is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus" (Romans 8:1).If God has already declared you not condemned, why do we keep living like we are? Chris walks through what it means to actually receive that verdict, stop trying to pay a debt Jesus already paid in full, and walk in the freedom of the Spirit instead of the treadmill of proving ourselves. Whether it's shame, guilt, fear, or the need to earn your worth, this message is an invitation to stop merely surviving and start living like the payment has already been made.Scripture references: Romans 8:1-4, Romans 7:24, Mark 16:16First message in our new series, Living the Declarations of Romans 8.

    The Grace to Do Nothing | RESCUE Series Exodus 18-20 - Tyler Abernathy || August 30

    We close out our summer RESCUE series in Exodus with a question worth sitting with all week: will you accept the grace of doing nothing?Tyler Abernathy traces two moments from Israel's wilderness journey — Jethro's practical wisdom to an overburdened Moses (Exodus 18) and the gift of the Sabbath within the Ten Commandments (Exodus 20:8-11) — and follows the thread into Jesus' words in Matthew 12, "the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath." The Sabbath was never meant to be a list of do's and don'ts; it's God's invitation to stop measuring our worth by productivity and rest in the truth that we are already His beloved.If your life runs at a frantic, go-go-go pace, this final message in the RESCUE series is an invitation to actually stop — and find that in doing nothing, you gain everything.Scripture references: Exodus 18:12-20, Exodus 20:8-11, Matthew 11:28-30, Matthew 12:1-8Series finale of RESCUE, our summer series through the book of Exodus.

    Succeed or Fail, God's Got You | RESCUE Series Exodus 15-17 - Zakk Roberts || August 23

    Our RESCUE series continues in Exodus 15-17, where the Israelites — fresh off the miracle at the Red Sea — hit bitter water at Mara, run low on food in the wilderness, and cry out for water again at Horeb. Through it all, Zakk Roberts unpacks the parental heart of God: testing isn't designed to make us fail, it's a diagnostic that exposes what's already in our hearts and conditions us to depend fully on Him.Whether you're in a season of bitterness, abundance, or repeated failure, the refrain is the same — God has not abandoned you. He is the God who heals (Exodus 15:26), the God who provides (Exodus 16), and the God who redeems (Exodus 17), pointing forward to Christ, the Rock who was struck for us (1 Corinthians 10:4).Scripture references: Exodus 15:22-26, Exodus 16:1-30, Exodus 17:1-7, Romans 8:38-39, Galatians 6:9, Proverbs 17:3, 1 Corinthians 10:4Part of the RESCUE series in Exodus at Steel City Church.

    Every Fear Is an Opportunity for God's Glory | RESCUE Series Exodus 14 - Blake Mathis || August 16

    Guest speaker Blake Mathis (planting a church in Squirrel Hill) opens Exodus 14, where the Israelites find themselves trapped between the sea and Pharaoh's army — and cry out in fear. But Moses' response points to something bigger than the moment: every occasion for fear is an opportunity for the glory of God.Blake walks through three truths from the text — the hard circumstance itself is a context for God's glory, Moses stands as mediator between God and the people (a picture of Christ, our greater mediator who "always lives to make intercession" for us), and the fear that follows deliverance is transformed into awe and trust. Drawing from his own story of walking through fear and uncertainty, Blake asks: what if the thing you're most afraid of right now isn't just an obstacle to get through, but a chance to see God more clearly?Scripture references: Exodus 14, Colossians 1:15-20, Hebrews 7:25, 1 Timothy 2:5Part of the RESCUE series in Exodus at Steel City Church.

    The Passover Story | RESCUE Series - Exodus 12 - DJ Jellison || August 9

    What does the Passover story have to do with you?In Exodus 12, God delivers Israel from slavery in Egypt—but the story is about more than freedom from Pharaoh. God was also rescuing His people from judgment. The difference between life and death was found in the blood of a substitute. The Passover points us forward to Jesus—the ultimate Passover Lamb. The lamb in Exodus had to be sacrificed again and again, but Jesus gave Himself once and for all.Sin isn't simply something we need to escape from. It is both rebellion and enslavement, and it destroys our lives. The question isn't whether we need rescue.The question is: What will YOU do with the blood?📖 Exodus 12This message is part of the RESCUE sermon series.#Rescue #Jesus #Passover #Exodus #ChristianSermon

    Rescued for Worship | RESCUE - Exodus 6-7 - Jacob Creighton || August 2

    What if God wants to do more than simply change your circumstances?In Exodus 7–9, we enter the middle of God's rescue operation for Israel. Moses and Aaron repeatedly stand before Pharaoh with the same command:“Let my people go, so that they may worship me.”As plague after plague falls on Egypt, God demonstrates His power, confronts the false gods and security of Egypt, remains faithful to His word, and gives Pharaoh opportunity after opportunity to respond.But there's something bigger happening than simply getting Israel out of Egypt.God wants to be known.And Israel wasn't rescued merely so they could experience freedom from slavery. They were rescued for worship.The same is true for us.Through Jesus, we aren't simply rescued from our sin so that we can go back to living life on our own terms. We are rescued for a purpose—to know God, worship Him, serve Him, and walk in the good works He has prepared for us.Sometimes we ask God to change our circumstances when what He ultimately wants to change is our hearts.Pharaoh repeatedly experienced God changing his circumstances, but his heart remained hard. The question for us is not simply, “God, will You change my situation?”It's also:“God, what are You revealing about Yourself—and what are You doing in my heart?”Join us as we walk through Exodus 7–9 and discover what the plagues reveal about the character of God, His faithfulness, His power, and His desire to be known.📖 Exodus 7–9🎙️ Jacob📍 Steel City Church🔥 RESCUE Sermon SeriesYou weren't rescued just for freedom.

    Why Does God Rescue? | RESCUE - Exodus 5–6 - David Bowers || July 26

    Why does God rescue?We often think of rescue as God making our circumstances better—removing the hardship, fixing the problem, or finally giving us the freedom we've been asking for.But Exodus 5–6 gives us a deeper answer.God rescues so that He will be worshiped.As Moses steps into God's rescue plan, things don't immediately get better. In fact, they get worse. Pharaoh refuses to listen. The Israelites become discouraged. And Moses begins to question whether he's even the right person for the job.But God hasn't lost control.In Exodus 6, God reminds Moses who He is and what He has promised to do. God's rescue isn't ultimately about making life comfortable. It's about displaying His power, making His name known, and bringing people into worship of Him.As we look at Pharaoh, the Israelites, and Moses, we see three different ways our hearts can respond when God doesn't work the way we expect.Maybe you don't know who the Lord is.Maybe you know Him, but you're struggling because life doesn't seem fair.Or maybe you're like Moses, wondering if your failures, weaknesses, or inadequacies could somehow derail God's plan.The answer is the same:Look to Jesus.God's rescue is ultimately displayed most clearly in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. You can't mess up God's plan.You can trust Him when life is hard.You can trust Him when you don't understand.You can trust Him when you feel unqualified.Because the God who rescues is still faithful—and ultimately, His glory will be known.📖 Exodus 5–6🎙️ David Bowers📍 Steel City Church🔥 RESCUE Sermon Series#Rescue #Exodus #Jesus #ChristianSermon #GodsGlory
