The Centrality of the Preached Word

Jim Zieger – AM Sermon

Scripture: Nehemiah 8:1-12

The preaching of the Word of God is the ultimate form of worship in the Church, and therefore it should be the center point of every ministry. From reading the book of Nehemiah, we can apply five qualities of preaching the Word that is desperately needed in churches today, where the vitality of preaching is often overlooked.

Hermenutics Seminar

PM Sermon

On September 11th, 2016, Pastor Matt Tarr hosted a seminar on the subject of hermenutics and how to study the Bible. Since this was not a traditional “sermon” and was more so an instructional format including questions and answers, the audio for the 9/11/16 Evening Service will not be posted on the SermonCast. However, the audio will be made available to anyone upon request.

Ask a Bad Question…

Pastor Matt Tarr – AM Sermon

Scripture: Mark 12:18-27

The Sadducees are a small sect of the elite priestly class in Judaism, and masterfully confront Jesus with a question that will determinatively undo Him… that is, if their presuppositions concerning the Scriptures are true.

When the Word is Your Delight (Part 2)

Scripture: Psalm 1

In the opening Psalm of the Psalter, the psalmist contrasts how significantly different the way of the righteous is from the way of the wicked.

A Parable They Understood (Part 2)

Pastor Matt Tarr – AM Sermon
