Announcement: NAME CHANGE!!!
That's right, we are changing the name of the podcast. This is in an effort to allow more listeners to join in on our ministry by listening from afar and giving it a fresh new look. This podcast is still first and foremost designed to help Semi...
Sermon: The Consistent Gospel (Gal. 2:1–11)
While this is a challenging passage for application (not for theology, but rather style of writing), it is God's word and authoritative. If the gospel Paul is preaching is true and straight from God, then it must be consistent. If it is consist...
Sermon: Consider the Source (Gal. 1:10–24)
When you hear news or advice, do you ever consider the source? What I mean by that is, do you think about the character and reliability of the person who's telling you? I hope so, because that's incredibly important in determining if the inform...
Sermon: Fake Gospels (Gal. 1:1–10)
Why are there so many "versions of the gospel" in the world? Because the gospel is extremely valuable. When something is valuable, many try and make counterfeits (fake versions). The Apostle Paul encountered this in the church of Galatia and sa...
Sermon: Restoring the Image of God (Rom. 6:1–14)
In our Image of God series, we've talked about Jesus being the perfect example for image bearers, which is awesome! But how do we get there? When we trust in Jesus, what all does that entail? Glad you asked! Grab your Bible and tune...
Sermon: Jesus the Perfect Example (Phil. 2:1–18)
In the previous sermon, we looked at who Jesus is as God. He is God in the flesh, which means there's also a man nature in Jesus. He's actually truly/fully man, truly/fully God. So for this message, we're going to explore Jesus's man nature, wh...
Sermon: Jesus the Divine Man (Col. 1:15–20)
In our Image of God series, we've been delivered some pretty bad news. Sin was brought into the world and unfortunately it has only multiplied since its introduction. Image bearers now have no hope... at least not by their own power! God sent H...
Sermon: Offending God (Gen. 4, 9:6; Matt. 5:21–26)
As we continue in Genesis and begin branching out, we're looking at why murder is so egregious to God. Remember, image bearers have tremendous value and murder disregards all of that! Not just physical murder either, but also spiritual murder, ...
Sermon: The Big Fall (Gen. 3)
Last week, I mentioned how difficult it was to carry out all of what being an image bearer entails. As you were hearing "Look in the Mirror," you might have noticed that many of the image bearing gifts were really hard to do! Why? Because of wh...
Sermon: Look in the Mirror (Gen. 2)
When you look in the mirror, who do you see? Do you see someone who has no value? Do you see someone who has some value if you do enough right? Or do you see someone who has intrinsic value because you are an image bearer of God? Gr...
Sermon: God's Best Creation (Gen. 1)
In Genesis 1, God made EVERYTHING good. Scripture tells us that. But He made one thing that stands above the rest. One of His creations stood taller, was considered the creme of the crop, the crown jewel that displays His glory better than anyt...
Sermon: Escape from Death (Ex. 14)
The Israelites were in the wilderness for three days and already they were encountering trouble. The Egyptians were coming for them and hot on their heels. But God didn't bring them this far just to turn back now!! Grab your Bible a...
Wise Counsel: How to Keep Your Devotion Time Fresh
Every seasoned Christian has been there: you finish your devotion time and you feel nothing. You feel the same way you did before you opened your Bible. We hate to admit this to anybody, but it bothers us that we feel this way. I want you to kn...
Sermon: God Leads (Ex. 13:17–22)
Have you ever started something new in your life? Whether it's a new school, new job, new house? If you're of dating age, maybe a new relationship? As exciting as these things might be, there's also a real sense of fear. That's how the Israelit...
Sermon: Removed From Comfort (Ex. 12:33–42)
I don't know about you, but I love my comfort zone. It's well....comfy! The problem with it is that I won't ever grow, change, or increase my dependence on the Lord there, so God will thrust me from comfort. He did the same for the Israelites, ...
Sermon: The Final Plague (Ex. 11, 12:29–32)
Pharaoh had been locked in a battle against Yahweh God (one that he would surely lose) but God is going to deliver the final blow. This final plague will be the worst one. What we see in these passages is that God blesses His people in the mids...
Commentary: A Familiar Salvation Story (Ex. 12:1–28)
Once more, Pastor Luke wasn't present to preach this so he provided his commentary and sermon structure for his leaders and students. He has recorded it for your benefit, so grab your Bible, follow along, and be encouraged!
Commentary: The Plagues! (Ex. 7:14–10:29)
Pastor Luke wasn't present while our students were taught on this passage so featured is his commentary that was available to his students and adult leaders. Feel free to open your Bible to this passage and follow along while you listen!
Placeholder: How to Find Sermon on Ex. 7:1–13
If you want to locate the sermon, it's posted privately since one of our awesome students preached the sermon. I want to protect my students' identities so this sermon will only be available to family, church members, and close personal friends...
Sermon: A Good Reset (Exodus 6:1–13)
Every once in awhile, we just need a good reset. Whether it's a reset of your room or just starting over on a project, it's occasionally necessary to keep focused. When we encounter discouraging obstacles, a reset is necessary. For Moses, God r...
Sermon: This Wasn't the Plan! (Exodus 5)
At the end of chapter 5, it seems as though Moses had an expectation for how his meeting with the Pharaoh should have gone. Maybe he expected instant success or at least for it to not have gone as awry as it did. He might have thought "this was...
Sermon: The Prep Work (Exodus 4:18–31)
The more important the task, the more preparation is required. Anything important you do in your life, you need to do some prep work for. Graduation, marriage, career, projects, YOUR CALL FROM GOD all require work to be done to prepare! Moses k...
Sermon: God Called the Right One (Exodus 4:1–16)
Have you ever been confident in making a choice only to find out you completely blew it? I know I have! Did you know that God has never done that? In our study of Moses's call from God, Moses begins accusing God of making the wrong choice of ca...
