Our sermons are only a part of our Sunday morning, but they are an important part – they are the Word of God presented to us in our context so that we can repent, seek to amend our lives, and receive God’s grace through the power of the Gospel.
We consider what it means to be God’s people, His royal priesthood, His holy nation, His beloved disciples – even when we don’t knock out everything on our to-do list.

We are Easter people. And while this doesn’t “feel like” Easter, that doesn’t matter. Easter is a fact. Easter is a movement. Easter conquers. Christ has risen! He has Risen Indeed! Alleluia! Sermon Scripture: Matthew 28:1–10 Now after the Sabbath, toward the dawn of the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other…
We continue our series about who we are in relation to certain Biblical characters, in relation to our fellow disciples, and in relation to Jesus.
