What Kind of King? Six Realities and One Call

When life’s trials overwhelm us, what kind of king do we really want—one who removes our suffering, or one who rules our hearts? In John 12–15, Jesus enters Jerusalem as a different kind of King, confronting our desire for miracles while inviting us to something deeper: surrender. Explore why desperation, anger, and disillusionment tempt us toward counterfeits—and how true life is found by turning, and re-turning, to Christ, the only King who leads us through trials into eternal life.

Finding Peace Part 3

Today we continue our look at the apostle Paul's teaching on anxiety. We take a closer look at Paul's situation - in chains, under house arrest in Rome. Plus we'll examine the well-known verse, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." And we take a brief look at Paul's amazing description of Jesus in chapter 2 - one of the most profound descriptions of Jesus anywhere in the Bible. The history alone is amazing, including how the gospel spread into the Palace of the Roman Emperor, Nero.

Imagine being held captive, locked in a room with no contact with the world outside. Your captors want a ransom. That's a scary thought. But maybe we don't have to imagine. Christianity says something very much like that is true - all of humanity is held captive to an empty life, but God has redeemed us, paying our ransom in blood - the blood of Christ, and welcoming us into a full and abundant life. Join us as Pastor David McMartin shares insights from Peter's letter that will encourage us in a life that can seem emptier every day.

It seems like a contradiction - why would God's elect find themselves as refugees? Why would they be scattered? Yet, sometimes we feel that way.  Amd sometimes, it can be more than a feeling - it can be literal.  It was often literal in the early church, and the apostle Peter adressed that reality in his first letter. 

Join us as Pastor David McMartin shares insights from Peter's letter that can help us deal with the troubles we experience today.
