Sermons
The Word of God faithfully preached to the Church is one of the most essential aspects of Christian discipleship. Through preaching every saint is equipped and trained for ministry as disciple-making disciples.
This is one reason preaching is the central element of our Lord’s Day worship.
One of the best ways to know what we believe is by listening to what is regularly preached.

The Kuleana of Pastors and their Churches
We take a break from our Genesis series to meditate on 1 Peter 5.1-11. Here we see how pastors and church members should be relating to one another. Pastors must shepherd faithfully and church members must receive shepherding faithfully. In verses 1-4 we find five encouragements for faithful pastors. Then in verses 5-11, we find two encouragements for faithful members.
Providing for, Protecting, and Rebuking Pastors
To kick off the new year, we jump back in our 1 Timothy series looking specifically at 1 Timothy 5.17-20. In this text what we find our three ways that God calls the congregation to honor the pastorate (by pastorate, we mean the office, the work, and the man). The ways we honor the pastorate is by 1) Providing for their needs, 2) Protecting them from false accusations, and 3) Rebuking them before all.
God’s Care for His Church
Today was our commissioning service for Pastor Jay. We are sending him to be the next lead pastor at our partner church, Kahului Baptist. In a charge to Pastor Jay, we considered Four Qualities of God's Care for his Church: 1) God Provides, 2) God Protects, 3) God Preserves, 4) God Prizes. Faithful pastors must be comforted and shaped by the care of God for the church.
