This week, we begin the Epistle of Hebrews. As we approach the end of Ordinary Season and prepare for Christ the King, Advent, and the rest of the new Celebratory Season, this special "sermon" of Hebrews is a beautiful, Christ exalting work. Listen as Pastor Nick points us to the purpose and thesis of Hebrews: the Superiority of Christ Jesus.

In Week 2 of our study on the Sabbath, Pastor Chris leads us in a discussion on what the Sabbath looks like from a Jewish perspective. Can New Covenant believers in Christ learn anything of benefit from how the Jews kept (and keep) the Sabbath?

If James tells us that taming the tongue is the hardest work of faith, what does he tells us is the ultimate work of faith? James tells us that if we are to prove our faith by our works then we should prove our works by working according to heavenly wisdom. This week, Pastor Nick explains the differences, the fruits, and the outcomes of Heavenly Wisdom vs. Demonic Wicked Wisdom. Join us!

Have you ever said anything you immediately regretted? Ever spoken a word in anger or frustration that seriously damaged a relationship? This week, with authority and vivid imagery, James reminds believers in Christ that the hardest work of faith is in taming the tongue. The untamed tongue, he tells us, not only encompasses the whole of our sinful nature, but damages the unity that the Gospel brings.

"Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor, and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God," (Exodus 20:8-10). So declares Yahweh in the fourth of the Ten Commandments.
What is the Sabbath? Now that Christ is Risen, when is the Sabbath? How should Christians "keep" the Sabbath, or should we even "keep" it at all? These are weighty questions that Pastor Chris will attempt to help us answer in this series of Sunday School lessons. We hope you will join us for the first of what promises to be many great discussions on the Christian and the Sabbath!

What does James mean when he states, "Faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead"? This one statement has caused controversy among believing Christians for centuries. This week, Pastor Nick asserts that the entire letter of James is an outworking of "be doers of the word and not hearers only," and manifests by proving our justification and faith by our works. Join us as we begin to unpack this heavy, but biblical, teaching from the Saint James the Just.

In our final message from Paul's letter to the Ephesians, we consider what Paul means by the "whole armor of God." Why do we "put on" this armor? And what is this armor for?
