    Study 3: 2 Samuel 2:8-31: Trent Evans

    Bury the junk in your heart            In this study of 2 Samuel 2, we witness the fragile transition of leadership in Israel after Saul’s death and the early formation of a divided kingdom. While David is anointed king over Judah in submission to God’s direction, Abner installs Ish-bosheth over the rest of Israel through human ambition rather than divine authority. The chapter unfolds as a series of missed opportunities—moments where humility, obedience, and seeking God could have prevented escalating conflict. Instead, internal division grows into violence between brothers. This passage invites us to examine our own lives, recognizing how ignoring God’s guidance and failing to guard our hearts can lead to unnecessary conflict, while true peace begins with surrender to God’s authority and alignment with His will.

    Study 2: 2 Samuel 2:1-7: Trent Evans

    Listeners and Hearers In 2 Samuel 2:1–7, David stands at a pivotal moment of transition following the death of Saul. Instead of acting on opportunity or ambition, he inquires of the Lord and waits for direction. God leads him to Hebron, a place symbolizing friendship and restored relationship. This passage reveals a pattern for faithful discipleship: seeking God with specificity, listening with intention, and responding with obedience. As David moves, others follow—demonstrating the weight of spiritual influence and leadership. Ultimately, this text invites us to consider whether we are merely hearing God’s voice or truly listening and acting, and whether our lives are leading others toward deeper friendship with Him.

    Study 1: 2 Samuel 1: 1-27: Trent Evans

    It's the little things.            In this opening study of 2 Samuel 1, we step into a pivotal moment in Israel’s history where David unknowingly stands on the edge of a life-altering transition. While he returns from victory over the Amalekites, news arrives that King Saul and Jonathan have died. This chapter reveals more than a leadership shift—it exposes the unseen work of God, the consequences of disobedience, and the posture of a heart that honors the Lord’s anointed. Through David’s response, we learn what it means to trust God with outcomes, grieve rightly, and walk in integrity even when opportunity presents itself.

    Study 7: Matthew 20: 1-19: Trent Evans

    The value of Grace On Easter morning, this sermon explores the Parable of the Vineyard Workers (Matthew 20:1–16) through the lens of grace, motivation, and the nature of following Jesus. Triggered by Peter’s question, “What’s in it for us?” (Matthew 19), Jesus reveals that the kingdom of heaven does not operate on transactional terms but on divine generosity. The landowner’s actions expose the danger of comparison, entitlement, and performance-based faith, while highlighting God’s relentless pursuit of all people—especially the overlooked, weak, and last. At its core, this parable calls believers to examine their motivation: not reward, but love and obedience in response to God’s mercy.

    Study 6: Matthew 7:15-27: Trent Evans

    How deep are your roots?      This message explores Jesus’ parable of the wise and foolish builders in Matthew 7:24–27, revealing that it is not a standalone teaching but the conclusion of His warning about false prophets and false disciples. The sermon emphasizes that hearing God’s Word is not enough - true discipleship is demonstrated through obedience. Both builders hear the same truth and face the same storms, yet their outcomes differ because of their foundation. A life built on Christ through surrendered obedience stands firm, while a life built on mere profession without practice collapses. Jesus calls His followers to examine not just what they say, but how they live, urging them to build lives rooted in His authority and truth.

    Study 5: Luke 10: 25-37: Trent Evans

    The Good Samaritan In Luke 10:25–29, the familiar account of the Good Samaritan begins not with compassion on a road, but with a deeper question about eternal life. A legal expert approaches Jesus with a posture of testing, asking what must be done to inherit life. Jesus redirects him to the law, revealing that while the command to love God fully and love neighbor rightly is clear, it is also impossible to fulfill in our own strength. This passage exposes the limits of self-righteousness and the human tendency toward self-justification. At its core, the story teaches that true love for others flows not from human effort alone, but from knowing and loving Jesus—because we cannot love like Him unless we are first transformed by Him.

    Study 4: Matthew 13: 44-46: Trent Evans

    What treasure are you holding on to?       In this study of Matthew 13:44–46, we explore Jesus’ parables of the hidden treasure and the pearl of great price, uncovering the immeasurable value of the kingdom of heaven. Jesus reveals that the kingdom is both hidden and graciously revealed, inviting a response of wholehearted surrender and joyful sacrifice. This teaching challenges us to examine what we truly value and calls us to place Christ above all else, recognizing that life in His kingdom is worth everything we have.
