Pastor Joe Schloegel – An exposition of Romans 12:1-8 (incl. supplemental passages)
– When God commands us through Paul’s writings in Romans to present ourselves as a “living sacrifice”, what is He really asking of us? Is this merely a command to dedicate our lives to Him, or is it something far deeper? The answer affects the entire way of life for the true Christian.

Pastor Joe Schloegel – An exposition of Romans 11:1-6 (incl. supplemental passages)
– A widely debated topic within the Christian community is that of whether Israel or the Church inherits God’s promises and covenants. While this subject is not something that is crucial in terms of our salvation, a correct understanding of how the Lord views Israel in light of the Church is crucial in forming a proper eschatology (or, doctrine of the end times). The apostle Paul himself had to deal questions on Israel’s relation to the Church even in his day, and he spent the eleventh chapter of Romans addressing these concerns.

Pastor Joe Schloegel – An exposition of Romans 9:1-18
– There a many different theological perspectives surrounding who inherits the promises of God. Is it Israel or the church? Varying perspectives on this subject have shaped differing views on eschatology as well as dispensationalism. A close examination of Romans 9, however, gives us a biblical perspective on these subjects as God’s will in these matters is made known through the epistle.

Pastor Joe Schloegel – An exposition of Romans 8:1-17

Pastor Joe Schloegel – An exposition of Romans 6, 7, & 8
– As believers in Jesus Christ, having accepted the propitiatory sacrifice He made on our behalf, we have a new life and a new master. However, Christians may notice that they still struggle with sin in their lives. The Christian may find themselves wondering how we are to deal with sin in our new life in Christ. We may also wonder where we stand in relation to the Law. A study of Romans 6, 7, & 8 reveals the answers to these questions and concerns.

Pastor Joe Schloegel – An exposition of Romans 6 (incl. supplemental passages)
– When a person is regenerated by the Gospel, that person’s “old self” (original Greek: “old man”) is put to death and crucified along with Christ. That person is then born again into new life with Christ through His resurrection. But if we are dead to sin and alive to God, do we keep on sinning? The implications of our life as the “new man” as opposed to the “old man” are expounded upon on Romans 6.
