The Gospel of the Son of God

Pastor Matt Tarr – An exposition of Mark 1:1

– Opening up the Bible to Mark’s Gospel (an oft overlooked Gospel), we arrive at the statement that this is “The beginning of the Good News of Jesus Christ, the Son of God (Mark 1:1).” In this brief verse can be found a great deal of Truth as we are forced to ask the question: What is the Gospel?

Worship the King

Pastor Matt Tarr – An exposition of Matthew 2:1-12

– The birth of Christ had been met with indifference and even outright rejection by Israel. And yet, a group of magi from Medo-Persia were not only diligently looking for the coming of Messiah, but they diligently sought Him out to worship Him upon recognizing His coming. In light of this passage about a group of heretical Gentiles giving more attention to the Advent than the hyper-religious Jews, the Christian is challenged to ask themselves whether they simply know of Jesus, or if they actually worship Him as He deserves.

The Conception of the Messiah

Pastor Matt Tarr – An exposition of Matthew 1:18-25

– The virgin conception and birth of Jesus Christ is one of the most important doctrines in the Christian faith, as only One who is fully God and fully man could be capable of bringing the salvation that God offers us through the sacrifice of our Lord. In this study of Christ’s genealogy, which proves His lineage as King, and n the miraculous events surrounding His conception, we are given the greatest reason for joy during the Christmas season.

Enduring for the Ministry

Guest Speaker: Pastor Matt Tarr – An exposition of 2 Timothy 2:8-13

– In a continuing exposition of the second chapter of Paul’s Second Letter to Timothy, Pastor Matt Tarr offers encouragement and also a challenge to keep our hand to the plow and endure whatever trials and troubles may come for the sake of remaining true to the ministry that glorifies God.

Be Strong

Guest Speaker: Pastor Matt Tarr – An exposition of 2 Timothy 2:1-7

– Be strong. It is an imperative to every Christian that we do not lose strength in our faith and that we do not compromise in the name of pragmatism.  We are therefore encouraged by Pastor Matt Tarr, a guest speaker from Grace Advance, to always remain strong and unwavering as we are commanded in Paul’s second pastoral epistle to Timothy.

The End of the Age

Pastor Joe Schloegel – A topical sermon

– In Matthew 24, Christ’s disciples ask the Lord about the signs of His return, and Jesus laid out an explanation of what would happen at the end of the age. A deeper look at these passages compared with other scriptural references to the end of days shows us exactly what to look toward as signs of Christ’s imminent second coming.

Content in Every Circumstance

Pastor Joe Schloegel – An exposition of Philippians 4:10-20

– Late in Paul’s letter to the Philippians, he makes a series of remarks about how he has learned to be content in every circumstance, whether plenty or want, sickness or health. Amidst these comments are a pair of verses that are often taken out of context when quotes, but an expositional sermon from Pastor Joe Schloegel sheds some light on what these verses really mean, and how Paul’s outlook can be applied to our own Christian walk.

Rejoice in Prayer

Pastor Joe Schloegel – An exposition of Philippians 4:4-9

– In the 4th Chapter of his letter to the Philippians, Paul urges us to rejoice always, specifically in the Lord. This can come as a difficult concept to understand, especially when everything seems to be going wrong. Yet we are given this command, but we are also instructed in the following verses on how to live this rejoicing, and it involves proper prayer and proper thinking. Pastor Joe Schloegel explains to us the concept through this expository sermon.

Reconciliation Between Christians

Pastor Joe Schloegel – An exposition of Philippians 4:1-3 (incl. supplemental passages)

– When a dispute arises among Christians, especially within the context of a local church body, there is a need for forgiveness and a need for reconciliation, and possibly a need for church discipline as well. How all of these factors should play out in a way that honors God is the focus of this sermon in Philippians 4 and elsewhere in Scripture.

The Trial, Crucifixion, and Resurrection of Christ

Pastor Joe Schloegel – A topical sermon

– Easter Sunday 2014

– In celebration of the Lord’s resurrection and triumph over sin and death, we take a close look at a number of passages which detail the final hours of Christ’s life, all the way through to His resurrection. There is also discussion of what our own resurrection and eternal state will look like according to Scripture.
