    The Sign of Jonah

    In this message from Jonah, part of our Glimpses of Grace series, Pastor Matt highlights two connected themes: God’s mercy toward the nations and the foreshadowing of Christ’s death and resurrection. The real shock of Jonah isn’t the fish, but God’s desire to save Nineveh. As Jesus later explains, Jonah’s three days point to His own burial and resurrection—revealing a grace that reaches both the rebellious and the repentant.

    There Will Be Deliverance

    In Sunday’s message, “There Will Be Deliverance,” from our Glimpses of Grace series, we explore Joel 2 and its powerful promise of restoration. Through the call to repentance—“Even now… return to me with all your heart”—we see how God’s mercy leads to renewed life, overflowing blessing, and spiritual renewal fulfilled in the ministry of Jesus Christ. This sermon reminds us that repentance does not leave us in shame but restores us through forgiveness, that salvation is available to all who call on the Lord, and that the Holy Spirit actively works through the whole church. As restored people, we are invited to live empowered lives and to be vessels through whom God continues His work.

    The Great Restoration

    In this message from the Glimpses of Grace series, we turn to the book of Hosea to see how God weaves powerful foreshadowings of Jesus into Israel’s story. Through images of love, exile, restoration, and resurrection, Hosea points both backward and forward—revealing hints of the Messiah in Israel’s past, present, and future. From “Out of Egypt I called my son” to vivid promises of renewal on the third day, this sermon explores how Hosea anticipates the gospel, the resurrection, and the call to repentance and renewal that still speaks to us today.

    Predictions of the Coming Christ

    Daniel 9:20–27 reveals one of the clearest prophetic timelines pointing to the coming of the Messiah. In this message from the Glimpses of Grace series, we explore how the “seventy weeks” prophecy—written centuries before Christ—unfolds with remarkable precision and leads directly to Jesus. Though complex in detail, the central truth is clear: God governs history faithfully, fulfills His promises exactly as spoken, and sent Jesus to bring forgiveness, righteousness, and salvation at the appointed time.

    The Everlasting Dominion of the Son of Man

    Daniel 7 reveals a powerful vision of earthly kingdoms that rise and fall, contrasted with the eternal reign of the Son of Man. As part of our Glimpses of Grace series, this message points to Jesus—the promised King—who receives everlasting authority from God and establishes a kingdom that will never be destroyed. In the midst of uncertainty, this passage reminds us that God is sovereign and Christ reigns forever.

    The Fourth Man in the Fire

    Join us as we continue our Glimpses of Grace series with a powerful message from Daniel 3:13–30. When Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were thrown into the fire, they weren’t alone—and the One who stood with them points us straight to Jesus. Be encouraged by the truth that God is present, faithful, and with us even in the flames.

    The Kingdom That Stands Forever

    This sermon explores Daniel chapter 2 and King Nebuchadnezzar’s dream, revealing how God’s kingdom stands above all earthly powers. As Daniel interprets the rise and fall of world empires, we are reminded to place our hope not in politics or human authority, but in the eternal kingdom of God established through Christ.

    The Prince of the Temple

    In this message from our Glimpses of Grace series, we explore Ezekiel’s vision of the temple and how it points to Jesus Christ, the true Prince of the Temple. Through rich imagery and prophecy, we see God’s plan of redemption, the river of life flowing from His presence, and the hope of new life for all nations.
