The Book of Hebrews – July 27, 2025

Read the passage: Hebrews 4:14-16; 5:7-9

I think all of us have been disappointed before when we pray. Sometimes we have a very worthy thing to pray for. We have a real need, and we’re not being selfish about it. Or we’re praying for someone else who’s hurting and they need help. And we pray with all our heart and nothing happens. And we can’t understand why God doesn’t just help us. And it’s natural to wonder, does God even care? Is God even real? Or did we do something wrong? Because it doesn’t make sense that God COULD help us and he just doesn’t. So prayer can be really frustrating and confusing.

But we’re not meant to live in frustration and confusion towards God. Because the Bible actually tells us what’s happening behind the scenes. It doesn’t tell us everything, but it tells us enough so that we don’t have to be frustrated and confused when we pray. But instead we can be confident even in the most difficult times.

So my big question today is: why should we be confident when we pray?

My answer is:

● 1. Because God’s HEART deserves our confidence, and

● 2. Because God’s MIND deserves our confidence.

The Book of Hebrews – June 29, 2025

Read the passage: Hebrews 1:1-4

We start a new series examining the book of Hebrews in the New Testament.

Constant busyness can be really bad for our relationship with God. Jesus talked about it in the Parable of the Sower. He talks about people who hear the message of God’s kingdom, but the worries of this life and the deceitfulness of wealth distract the person, so that their life is not fruitful. This is really typical for Christians.

I think most Christians don’t reach anywhere near the potential that God made us to have. It’s not because we hate Jesus or we have bad theology. And it’s not like we decided to leave the faith and worship Satan or anything. But a lot of Christians are just too distracted to follow Jesus properly.

So my big question today is: how can we stay on track with Jesus despite all the pressures and temptations of life?

My answer is: we need to see how worthy Jesus is – of all our time and devotion.

More specifically, we need to see that:

  1. Jesus is the greatest TRUTH
  2. Jesus is the greatest TREASURE

Read the Passage: 1 Kings 12:1-24

My question is: what makes a leader worth following?

Today I want to show you that great leaders have two commitments. They have a commitment to wisdom, and a commitment to service. And I believe all of us can make these two commitments, and we can become the kinds of leaders that God made us to be. ‘

That’s what our Bible story is about. Today I want to tell you the story of King Rehoboam. Rehoboam was the fourth king of Israel, after King Saul and King David and King Solomon. And Rehoboam is famous for doing everything wrong. He’s famous for failing in the most spectacular way. And his story was put in the Bible to teach us how NOT to lead.

The Upper Room – May 4, 2025

Read the passage: John 14:1-24

What if there is a bigger world out there that is more real than anything we know? What if someone came to us from the world outside, and told us the truth about our world? What if that person couldn’t stay in our world, but they had to leave. But before they left, they told us how to get to the place where they lived?

As Christians, these are not just hypothetical questions – this is actually our story. The story of Jesus is that he came from outside of our world. He told us the truth about our world. He couldn’t stay with us, but he had to leave. Before he left, however, he told us how to get to the place where he lives. Jesus gave us a way to be close to him, even before we get to his world.

The Book of Judges – April 6, 2025

Judges 3:12-30

In this sermon, Pastor Enoch discusses how ordinary people can tackle extraordinary problems, using the biblical story of Ehud from the book of Judges as a case study.

The narrative begins with the Israelites suffering under the oppression of King Eglon of Moab, who ruled for 18 years. Pastor Enoch emphasizes that while Ehud’s actions—lying and killing—may seem morally ambiguous, they are framed within the larger context of warfare and divine deliverance. Ehud, a left-handed man, utilized his unique physical attributes and extensive preparation to assassinate the king and liberate the Israelites.

The sermon suggests that solving significant problems requires extraordinary reasons, preparation, and perspective. The speaker draws parallels between Ehud’s courage and modern figures like Florence Nightingale, emphasizing the necessity of dedication and service to a greater cause.

The key takeaway is that with extraordinary motives and proper preparation, individuals can achieve remarkable results while recognizing that ultimate success is a partnership with divine intervention.

The Book of Judges – March 23, 2025

Judges 4:1-27

As Christians we have a God who is invisible by nature, and sometimes it feels like all we have is a bunch of theory that feels dry and not very satisfying. But every one of us is meant to experience God for ourselves. And Jesus told us how we can experience God. Jesus said to his disciples:

“Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love them and show myself to them.” (John 14:21)

In other words, if we love Jesus enough to keep his commands, he will show himself to us. But, the hard part is keeping his commands. Because, keeping his commands means really following Jesus with our life, even when it’s difficult. And, that takes courage.

So, our Bible story today is about courage. My big idea today is, if we want to experience God we need courageous faith. And courageous faith means two things. First, we need courageous reasoning, and second, we need courageous action.

Letters to the Corinthians – March 9, 2025

2 Corinthians 9:6-11

There are all kinds of weird and creative ways we can spend money.

But today I want to talk about what might be the single best use of money in the whole world. I want to talk about the idea of charity.

Now just to be clear, I am not asking you to give money to the church. And I’m also not saying that anyone has to give to charity. Because our Bible passage today is about voluntary giving to a charity far away. So I hope you don’t feel pressured to give today because that is not my intent.

But my big question today is: Why would a person want to give away as much money as they can?

My answer is, if we do charity well, we are the first to benefit, and we are the second to benefit. And I’ll show you what I mean as we go through our Bible passage.

Letters to the Corinthians – February 9, 2025

1 Corinthians 7:26-31

All of us have choices to make. We have choices in our love life. We have choices for our schooling and our career. We have choices for our friendship and our free time and our family life. Our choices will determine the direction of our lives.

So my big question today is: How can we make better life choices?

The answer I want to show you today is: we need to think like soldiers.

Because, just like soldiers:

  1. We need to remember the mission, and
  2. We need to accept our limits

My task today is to show you these ideas from the Bible, so you can build your life directly on God’s word.
