We're in week 3 of "From an Elder’s Heart" and our elder - Kyle McManamy - focused on Jesus' famous vine and branches discourse as we learn what it means to drink in and share in the life of God. When God's life flows through us, what comes out of us?

Week 2 of "From an Elder’s Heart" and our focus will be on unity – true Christian Unity – as we look at Ephesians 4:1-16. Paul exhorts the church of Ephesus – and us by extension – to maintain the unity of Christ. In so doing, Paul causes us to see that the source of our unity is the Holy Spirit and as we each use the gifts the Holy Spirit has give…

Our final and fourth Advent Sunday is coming this Lord's Day. The theme is LOVE. Love is not an abstract notion in Christianity. Love IS the person of Christ himself and in Haggai 2:6-9 we see the prophetic vision of all that Christ will be for us: the better temple, the glorious beauty of God, the shaking purifier of the nations, and the peace-giv…

Our third Sunday of Advent brings us to Malachi 3:1-4. He is an Italian prophet.... see what I did there? Never mind. But seriously, Malachi is the last prophet in chronological order and he closes the Old Testament. It has been a 100 years since the exile ended. The walls of Jerusalem are back up and the temple has been rebuilt. Neither are like t…

As we continue Manger in the Minors, we will be in Zechariah 9:9-10. The prophet haunts and yet pursues the people of God with the need for the presence of God to return to His people in order to save, restore, and stay. With images of rubble, physical and spiritual, Zechariah signals hope. God is going to rebuild the Temple, the place of His prese…

We begin Advent this Sunday with the theme "Manger in the Minors". I know, a bit corny, but hey, this is the Bible Church! 🤪We are going to take a well known prophecy of the coming Messiah from four Minor Prophets, beginning this Sunday with Micah 5:2-5. Then we head to Zechariah 9:9-10, Malachi 3:1-4; and finally Haggai 2:6-9. Each prophecy will t…

The last chapter... Genesis 50. One chapter closes, another begins. My prayer is that we have had our understanding of the Gospel deepened in Genesis, from creation to the start of Exodus - a garden, a couple, a family, and now a nation; God's covenant promises; the terrible reality of sin; the glorious reality of redemption and a coming Redeemer a…

After an adoption ceremony (Ch 48), Jacob now turns to his Last Will and Testament. He leaves his legacy to his sons - a legacy of blessing, prophesy, and discipline. Actually, the whole thing is blessing, but sometimes blessing comes in the form of warning, consequence, and exhortation, so that the inheritor turns toward grace. In each of these bl…

Each of you has at least one Spirit-given gift. Probably more! Learn…

The first in a two-Sunday emphasis on how God has gifted us to worship and serve, we open with the question, "Who Can God Use?" Focusing on 1 Peter 2, we will see that the entire Bible answers this question with themes emerging from its first pages. We often think that there are certain parts of life, certain behaviors, even certain people that God…

We begin our final lap in Genesis, and a final scene before the Book of Exodus. In this final scene, it is time for final blessings. Jacob is almost home. Not almost dead, but almost home! He calls Joseph and his sons, Ephraim and Manasseh. In a spiral of Gospel twists, he blesses Joseph as firstborn by adopting the two boys, so they can share the …

The Joseph story is nearing the conclusion. In Genesis 47, we now see the re-creating power of God at work as Joseph is reunited with his family and brings his family into Egypt so they can take possession of fruitful land. In fact, the text even says that in that place they are fruitful and multiply, as if this is an echo of Eden! The climax of th…

It is a family reunion for Jacob and Joseph! We finally arrive at a crescendo in our story as we see God's promises reinforced, as we see God protect His people, and as He provides to sustain them. We will journey together from Canaan to Egypt as the story whets our appetites for the One who is our ultimate Promise, Protection, and Provision!…

In Genesis 45, the brutal journey towards reconciliation finally hits the crescendo. The wall of self protection, distance, and shame comes crumbling down. And, the new foundation of grace is starting to be built. Brutal, yes. Possible... inevitable, as we stand on Jesus, the One who was sent in God's eternal providence, to suffer at our hands, so …

In Genesis 44, Joseph sets up a clear ruse. Isn't that a bit dodgy... even sinful? He seems to be entrapping his poor brothers. Well, remember that not every test is a trap. Some tests are all of love, designed to purify. This one is the latter. Yes, there is a ruse, but that ruse is leading to redemption and reconciliation by repentance and a clea…

How can men like Joseph's brothers enter into God's blessing? In part 2 of "The Brutal Journey Towards Reconciliation", we will see together how God's love and kindness can awaken even the hardest of hearts. Joseph's brothers did not deserve to be loved and yet they were loved by Joseph. Similarly, in Jesus Christ, despite our failures and sin, we …

Forgiving someone or people who have sinned against us deeply is one of the hardest human actions. Are you there? Is there someone or a list of people that you cannot imagine being able to forgive? And, do you struggle with guilt because of something you did? Repenting without knowing the outcome is also a really huge test of faith. This passage is…

One of my mentors once said that patience is trusting God's work in other people's lives. So true! Every time I am tempted to be the Holy Spirit, I remember that truth. This principle is also true for patience in hard situations. When in tests, I need to believe that God is at work in each and every circumstance and that even my tests are part of H…

Faithfulness can be lonely. Faithfulness can lead us to places where others don't want to be and don't want to remember, especially when others are rescued and want to focus on their normal lives. Joseph is in that place in Genesis 30. The last line says it all: "The chief cupbearer did not remember Joseph, but forgot him." There's such pain in tha…

We're back in Genesis! Chapter 39. We are going to look at God's recipe for success. Now, don't worry, I am not turning into THAT preacher!
