A message from the series “Sermons.” In this sermon from 1 Corinthians 11:4-16, Pastor Jon English attempts to explain why the head coverings are in the text, why they matter, and how they apply to us today.

A message from the series “Sermons.” Jesus often addressed the issue of money and stewardship – because the love of money is the root of all sorts of evil (1 Tim 6:10). In fact, Jesus spoke more about money than any other single figure in Scripture. As we find in this text, there were people in His day fighting over an inheritance just like they do today, and while Christ did not put himself in the place of arbitrating such arguments, He did take the occasion to teach us the kingdom perspective of possessions and wealth.

A message from the series “Sermons.” In Luke 12:1-12, we have Jesus continuing to prepare His disciples to live an unafraid and unashamed gospel witnesses.

A message from the series “Sermons.” We saw at the end of chapter 11 that the religious leaders were now watching Jesus’ every move, looking for a way to discredit Him in the people’s eyes and to find some excuse to kill Him and remove His influence over the masses. Jesus and His men were all under pressure, but He knew His mens needed to continue their training, to be ready to lead the church, so He taught them six lessons about how to live unafraid and unashamed as gospel witnesses. This sermon explores the first three.

A message from the series “Sermons.” What if you heard Jesus say to you, “Your soul is like an unmarked grave”? When we think of the gravest dangers facing the church, it’s not false religions, nor is it a hateful culture, nor is it even heretics in the church. Those are all very serious, but the gravest danger to the church is theologically informed, religiously active, morally conservative people whose hearts are devoid of Christ.

A message from the series “Sermons.” As the people of God continue to worship Christ and proclaim His gospel in this sinful world, it is critical that we be clear about the Source of Our Identity and the Right Practice of our Faith. In this Mother’s Day sermon, we explore Paul’s prayer for the church at Ephesus and see that every family on earth derives its identity from the Father, and therefore if we would thrive as His family, we must seek Him, depend upon His strength, and grow in His love.
