The Book of the Twelve: Joel
Tuesday May 24, 2016
Tuesday May 24, 2016
Sermon on the book of Joel. Joel is strangely not specific about the sins of Israel, so much so that scholars don't agree about when it was written. But it is a great call to repentance and a strong claim of the grace of God.

The Book of the Twelve: Hosea
Sunday May 15, 2016
Sunday May 15, 2016
This sermon takes a look at the book of Hosea. We might get a little offended when God tells Hosea to marry a prostitute, but we cannot help but be amazed at the power of the imagery as the story unfolds. Hosea could be called the first Gospel, and it is good news that we need every bit as much as Israel did.

The Book of the Twelve: Introduction
Wednesday May 11, 2016
Wednesday May 11, 2016
This is the intro sermon for my summer series on the Book of the Twelve- often called the Minor Prophets. I plan to do an overview of each book every week. There will be some gaps throughout the summer for special Sundays or days I am on vacation.
For this intro sermon, I do a quick introduction to the Old Testament, give a big picture overview of Israel's history in the OT, and then look at what prophets do in the Bible.

The Temptation of Jesus (and us)
Tuesday May 03, 2016
Tuesday May 03, 2016
In this sermon I take a look at the temptation of Christ on four levels. Satan is tempting Jesus to act like God and not like man. The temptation mirrors the temptation of Adam and Eve. It parallel Israel. It is also symptomatic of our own temptations.
