God’s Word to Pharaoh raised a stink.  His heart was hardened by it.  He not only refused Moses’ demands but made the people’s lives more bitter.   The gospel often raises a stink.  But Moses raised a stink as well.   Pharaoh’s is not the only unbelief.   When the gospel did not act how and when Moses thought it should, he raised a stink with God.  

God delivers his people, but the process is often a battle as he grants faith and freedom through crisis and testing.  Join us as we examine Exodus 5:1-23 and consider “The Battle for Freedom.”

John’s gospel holds a surprising ending, an unexpected postscript.  One more vignette of the risen Jesus with his disciples.  Not to further prove the reality of the resurrection, but to answer the question for them and for us, “What’s Next?”   Join us as we examine John’s postscript and consider what it looks like to live in light of the resurrection. 

The empty tomb is a sign reading “Skeptics Welcome.” The accounts of the crucifixion, death and burial of Jesus, and the empty tomb provide a trove of evidence explainable only by Jesus’ resurrection.  The stone was moved to let skeptics in not to let Jesus out.  Join us this Lord’s Day as we examine the account of the empty tomb from John 20 and consider an invitation to skeptics to examine and believe in the resurrection of Jesus.

The account of the crucifixion appears to display failure, contradiction and injustice.  But a closer look reveals all the facets of God’s redemptive plan to reveal mercy and triumph as Jesus bears his peoples’ sin and finishes the work of redemption. Join us as we study John 19:16-30 and examine the facets of grace revealed in the story of the Jesus’ crucifixion and death

At the grave of Lazarus, Jesus makes a shocking statement when he declares “I am the Resurrection and the Life.”  Join us as Rev. Bill Holiman preaches from Ezekiel 37 and John 11 and examines what it means that Jesus Is the Resurrection.
