Our Vision

In this sermon, Pastor David Mathis begins the New Year with our new sermon series through the Gospel of John by expounding upon John 1:1-13. Therefore, we enter 2025 making much of Jesus, considering him, enjoying him, marveling at him — which is how John opens his Gospel.

In this sermon on Numbers 33-36, Pastor Jonathan Parnell concludes our series through the Book of Numbers by focusing in on the example of faith by the five daughters of Zelophehad. And even beyond their exemplary example of faith, their story takes us to Jesus – our kinsman redeemer.

In this sermon on Numbers 31-32, Pastor David Mathis contrasts God’s command to “kill every male among the little ones” to the similar acts of anger ordered by Herod in Bethlehem and Pharaoh in Egypt. This passage is a dark subject for the Sunday before Christmas, but this is actually the real setting for Christmas – a desperate, cursed, evil world in which surprising light dawns. Here’s three rays of Advent light we see in this land of deep darkness...

In this sermon on Numbers 26-30, Pastor Jonathan Parnell offers three encouragements to the rising generation. The older generation should invest in the younger generation because there will come a day when the older generation is no longer, and the younger generation will be leading the way.

In this sermon, Pastor Mike Schumann expounds upon Numbers 22-25 in which we find two contrasting men on either side of God’s promises to the godly. One man provides a portrait of worldliness, while the other shows a heart won over to God.

In this sermon, Pastor Jonathan Parnell expounds upon Numbers 20-21 where God displays that he wants your faith whoever you are. And just as the snakebitten Israelites were instructed to look at the bronze serpent if they wanted to live, we are to look to Jesus if we want to live. God wants our faith!

In this sermon, Pastor Mike Polley expounds upon Numbers 16-19 in which we see three acts of judgment and three acts of provision from God. We see that just as Aaron stood between the living and the dead – Jesus stands in the gap for us, between life and death, but more than holding back sin and death, he defeats it. Jesus is the only way back to God.

In this sermon, Pastor Mike Schumann expounds upon Numbers 13-15 in which we witness one of the greatest tragedies ever told. God’s chosen people are standing on the verge of the Promise Land and the twelve spies return to the camp with a foreboding report. Unbelief has descended upon the camp. This story teaches us four things about unbelief.

In this sermon, Pastor Jonathan Parnell expounds upon Numbers 10:11-12:16 by tracking with these three movements found in this story: on one hand there is a “shiny new car,” and on the other hand there’s “the fine print,” and then there is what it means for us. And what we learn is that right now, in the new covenant, what we have was a dream for Moses.

In this sermon, Pastor David Mathis expounds upon Numbers 7:1-10:10 by focusing on what we need to know, how we should live, and how we see Jesus in this text. God still leads and guides his people’s daily movement but how does this look for us under the new covenant?
