A message from the series “Sermons.” In this second of four sermons for our 2023 Global Missions Conference, Conrad Mbewe returns to the first chapter of the book of Romans to explore the Apostle Paul’s motivation for missions. In this text, we see that God’s wrath upon human sin is one of the great motivations for missions. All humankind has traded the truth of God for a lie, and only Christ, through the
gospel, has the power to save men from the wrath of our Holy God.

A message from the series “Sermons.” In this first of four sermons for our 2023 Global Missions Conference, Conrad Mbewe goes to the first chapter of the book of Romans to explore the Apostle Paul’s motivation for missions.

A message from the series “Sermons.” How do we understand God? We begin with the Word of God and the Bible. But many things in the Bible are hard to understand. Thankfully, in the fullness of time, God sent His Son as the fullest revelation of Himself among man. Jesus explains, or makes known to us in the fullest sense possible in this sinful world, the person and purpose of God. As this text shows us, He is the fulfillment of everything promised through Moses and the Law.

A message from the series “Sermons.” “And the Word became flesh…” This is one of the most amazing and concise statements of the incarnation that we have in Scripture. The creator entered His creation in the most amazing way. The invisible God became visible, the infinite took on finite flesh, eternity entered time, and omnipresence became focused in One person. In this Christmas Day sermon, we explore the wonder of the incarnation and the fullness of grace that believers receive.

A message from the series “Sermons.” In this sermon, we see a Biblical Theology of enmity between the seed of the serpent and the seed of the woman, which culminates in the person and work of Christ.

A message from the series “Sermons.” Our world, indeed, our entire universe, was created by and is sustained by an almighty and loving God. He preserved the record of His works, His laws, and His promises, even telling His people that He was going to come to them at some point. Yet when He came, the world did not know Him, and His people did not receive Him. However, by His sovereign grace, there were many who believed. This sermon explores that wonderful gift of God’s sovereignly granted salvation.

A message from the series “Sermons.” “The light of Christ is the brightness of God shining in the retina of the human soul.” – John Piper

A strong physical light can blind us, but spiritually, the light of Jesus does just the opposite. The Light of Christ takes away our spiritual blindness. The light of Christ makes us see by making us alive. The light of Christ helps us to see God and ourselves and our world and our need with incredible clarity. In this sermon, we explore how Christ is indeed the ultimate light of the world.

A message from the series “Sermons.” The human heart is an amazing and vital organ. The human body thrives because of the blood that the heart pumps at over 2,000 gallons daily. The heart still has its flaws as heart disease is still the number one killer in the world. The spiritual heart described in the Old Testament refers to the inner core of a person- the thoughts, feelings, desires, will, and choices that make that person who he/she is. Because those things can be shaped by the world and our experiences, Jeremiah teaches us here that the heart is not to be trusted because it is incurably wicked; rather, Trust the Lord. This sermon is more of an intro to the start of a series on the heart of man and how the only solution to our heart issues is The Gospel of Jesus Christ.

A message from the series “Sermons.” When you consider where the gospels begin, Matthew and Luke begin with the birth narrative of Jesus to Joseph and Mary, and Mark begins with the start of the public ministry of Jesus. But John’s gospel begins in an entirely different place – in eternity past. John begins by describing Christ as the eternal Word, the second member of the Trinity, and the agent of all creation. This first Christmas sermon explored the wonder of Christ’s incarnation in light of His eternal divinity.
