    The Coming of the King - John 12:12-19

    Pastor Matt preaches from John 12:12-19, "The Coming of the King." As we celebrate the coming of King Jesus into the world, our normal next text in John is the coming of Christ into Jerusalem and, by his actions, accepting the title of King. Not only that, but it is full of Christmas themes. That should not surprise us, as Jesus himself tells Pilate that it was for this purpose that He came into the world.

    The Anointing of the King - John 12:1-10

    Pastor Matt preaches from John 12:1-10 on the famous story of Mary anointing Jesus's feet with pure and expensive oil. We look at how this is an unintentionally prophetic act of devotion, faith, and worship. At the same time, we also Martha and Lazarus serving Christ in their own ways. Finally, we see in the example of Judas that what keeps us this kind of service and worship to Christ is the hidden sins of our hearts. We hope you'll listen in and be encouraged to anoint Christ as King in your own heart, such that your life becomes a "fragrant aroma" of His gospel.

    The Fate of the King (John 11:45-57)

    Pastor Matt preaches from John 11:45-57. We look at how the raising of Lazarus seals belief in Jesus for some, but opposition to Jesus for others. We also see how Caiaphas becomes an unintentional proclaimer of the Gospel, and close by seeing how we can trust that Jesus will show up for us.

    Advance and Opposition - John 11:45-57

    Matt Doucet, one of our elders, preaches from John 11:45-57, which covers the response of those who witnessed Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead. Some believe that He is the Christ, while others oppose Him to the point of violence. Such will be the case for all who bear witness to Jesus.

    Lazarus (Pt. 2) - With Martha and Mary In Their Grief (John 11:17-37)

    Pastor Matt preaches from John 11:17-37. In this sermon,  our focus is on how Jesus’s love for Martha and Mary affects how He cares for each of them in their grief. Part of this is Jesus's fifth "I am" statement in the Gospel of John, "I am the resurrection and the life." We hope you'll listen in and see a picture of how Christ loves us as His sheep and how He made a way for us to live, even though we die.

    Lazarus (Pt 1): From Batanea to Bethany

    *Due to technical difficulties, the sermon recording picks up right after the introductory remarks and the Scripture reading.* Pastor Matt preaches from John 11:1-16. In this sermon, we are introduced to Martha, Mary, and Lazarus, a family that Jesus loves dearly. Lazarus is sick and eventually dies. And in these opening verses, we learn a lot about prayer, God's sovereign love for His people, and how He does all things for His own glory and our good.

    The Basic Belief - John 10:30-42

    Pastor Matt preaches from John 10:30-42. In this sermon, Pastor Matt focuses on the "basic belief" of the Christian faith. There are several foundational, non-negotiable beliefs that Christians have about the work of Christ and the salvation He offers, but there is a belief UNDER them, a belief without which they cannot be true. And that’s the truth that the man Jesus Christ is God. We hope you'll listen in and see the importance of and come to believe in the Deity of Jesus Christ.
