Sermons & Teaching

This one verse is so rich in meaning and content that it might need to be revisited. The concept of false teachers and especially the effects of false doctrine are real for us day to day in our current world. The affects of it all are numerous but we can stand strong in truth. Join in the teaching to see how your life can remain strong.

What is it you are not content about? How does that cause you to not enjoy the forever the same God in your day-to-day living? Our manner of living should reflect our faith by what we think and how we act.

1 Peter 1:10-25 is the overall text for today but we drill down into verses 10-12 as the focus. There were prophets of old that anticipated the coming Christ/Messiah but their revelation was actually for the early church believers and now for us to see Christ throughout history past, into the present and we believe into the future.
Suffering brings joy as we learned in the lesson on 08 October, now we move to seeing it developing holiness in our lives.

Hebrews 13 picks up where chapter 12 finishes and goes on to complete the thoughts. What does ‘brotherly love’ look like in our world today, who are strangers vs brothers? What about prisoners, can we relate?

Teacher — Jack Greenwood

1 Peter 1:3-9 gives us a journey from lostness to “salvation of your souls.” The hard part for us is the suffering that comes along the way. But the suffering is to make our faith genuine and valuable and to teach us how to be joyful in a hard place.

Part 2 of our Peter Study Introduction. We looked at who the author Peter was, and now we look at us and the world we travel through. 1 Peter 1:1-2 is the text for jumping off into other thoughts to lay groundwork for the rest of our study.

Preacher — Pastor Jon

How do we approach the judgment of God, and the grace of God as we enter the kingdom that is promised?

Teacher — Jack Greenwood

Hebrews 12 builds on the faith stories from Hebrews 11, Moses as a main OT character and the Mount Sinai and Mount Zion connections become clear in Hebrews 12:18-29

Teacher — Jack Greenwood

The Peters have amazing lessons for us to consider as we grow in Christ. We have to start with a consideration of the life of Peter because it is interwoven with the Life of Christ.
We should all be able to relate to Peter and his humanity because we are so similar.
