Sermons
The Word of God faithfully preached to the Church is one of the most essential aspects of Christian discipleship. Through faithful expositional preaching all the saints grow together in the knowledge of God and in being equipped for ministry. This is one reason preaching is the central element of our Lord’s Day worship.

The Blessing of Friends in the Gospel
This Sunday we took a break from Genesis to celebrate the gift of gospel partners as we had the privilege of having one of our international partners visiting us. In Philippians 1.3-30, there are four ways we see the blessing of faithful friends in the gospel. We see this through: 1) Paul’s Gratitude, 2) Paul’s Prayer, 3) Paul’s Suffering, and 4) Paul’s Charge.
Partnering in the Spread of the Gospel
In Titus 3.12-15 helps us to see the importance of gospel-partnership. That is the only way the gospel spreads throughout the world. There are four parts to this text: 1) a roll call, 2) a repeated reminder, 3) a command to kokua, 4) the grace to accomplish it.
Healthy Gospel-Partnership
We take a break from 1 Timothy to survey the book of Philippians to spend some time thinking about gospel-partnerships. In Philippians, we can find at least 5 qualities every gospel-partnership must cultivate if we are going to be healthy and faithful: 1) Gospel-Centrality, 2) Mutual-Sacrifice, 3) Intimate-Friendship, 4) Serious-Accountability, and 5) Happy-Contentment.
