Pastor Joe Schloegel – An exposition of Romans 8:1-17
– As Christians, we walk not according to flesh, but according to spirit. Furthermore, we have been bought with a price, and are now children, sons, and heirs with Christ. We learn of the vital significance of these points by closely examining their illustration in Romans 8.

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.

Pastor Joe Schloegel – An exposition of Romans 4:1-8 (incl. supplemental passages)
– Abraham had faith that what was promised to him by God would be fulfilled, even though he never saw it during his lifetime. This faith was counted to Abraham as righteousness. But what, exactly, is faith? Is it dreaming big and having high hopes that God would answer all of our prayers, or is biblical faith something much more specific? The answer is the subject of this expositional sermon.

Pastor Joe Schloegel – An exposition of Romans 3:21-31 (incl. supplemental passages)
– In the early chapters of Romans, we learn that we are all sinners with no hope of saving ourselves. However, God doesn’t rely on us to save ourselves; He has done all of the work in our salvation, and it’s here, in Romans 3, that we see a vivid description of that saving work and it’s distinctness from the Law.

Pastor Joe Schloegel – An exposition of Romans 2 & 3
– Is there any salvation to be found in the law? Are those who practice the law somehow better off than those who do not? How does the law fit into God’s divine Plan? These questions arise in the book of Romans, as do the answers given by the apostle Paul.

Pastor Joe Schloegel – An exposition of Romans 2:1-16 (including supplemental passages)
– God has many unchanging attributes. He is loving, forgiving, eternal, omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent, et al. What many often forget or overlook, however, is that God is also righteous and just. In the end, all will stand before His thrown to face His righteous judgment. In that moment, the question becomes: How will we be judged?
