Charlie Vasquez – The book of Job is a story of someone who goes through great loss and then struggles to understand it. Along with Job, the question we most want answered is this: why is there suffering? But when we reach the end of the book, that isn’t answered. Instead, we see examples of different ways to respond to suffering, with perspective on which ones to avoid and which ones to imitate.
Dec 07, 2025 Elisha Freeman – We find ourselves in between the major holidays of Thanksgiving, Christmas, and the New Year. We are eagerly waiting for them to arrive. In a small way, this is a shadow of us waiting in between Jesus’ first coming and His second coming. How are we to live as we wait? This is what we will seek to answer this morning.
May 05, 2024 Elisha Freeman — It is hard to imagine that an amazing reality of the miracle of the incarnation of Jesus is that to become human required Him to be bound to time. As God, Jesus is beyond time. He created time and controls time, but in humbling himself to become human Jesus binds himself to time. While on earth, how did Jesus view time? Approach time? Use time? These questions and more we will explore this morning.
Dec 03, 2023 Elisha Freeman — The Bible teaches that life right now is in between two major events, the birth of Jesus (that has already happened) and the return of Jesus. So while we wait for His return, what are we to be doing? This morning we will look at 3 parables Jesus tells in succession to help us realize the importance of seeing and acting on opportunities while we wait in the meantime.
Aug 06. 2023 Elisha Freeman — Everyone who is committed to following God must learn a vital lesson, that lesson is waiting. Waiting is hard, long, and challenging. How do we wait well? What reassurances does God provide while we wait? All of these and more will be answered as we examine Genesis 15:1-6 this morning.
Apr 26, 2020 – Elisha Freeman – Soon after the Civil War ended, Abraham Lincoln was once asked how he would treat the “rebellious” southerners. Lincoln responded, “I will treat them as if they never left.” Our lesson today focuses on the treatment of Jesus to sinners. How and why does He treat them the way He does? The story of Luke 15:11-32 is the answer to our question.
