Current Sermon Series
As we finished our sermon series in Ezra and Nehemiah, you may have gotten a sense that the story was still… incomplete. The Lord restored His remnant people and rebuilt His kingdom, but the old patterns of sin and rebellion returned all over again. And for 400 years, God’s people cried out, waiting for the King of the Kingdom to come. Well, in the Gospel of Matthew, the answer finally comes. We encounter at last the good news of the arrival of the long-anticipated king. And his name is Jesus. The books of Ezra and Nehemiah long for the Savior King; the Psalms resonate with the Savior King; and, as we saw at Advent, the whole bible ultimately points to this Savior King: Jesus Christ. But who is King Jesus? What did He say? And how can we know Him even now? Join us this Spring, Summer, and Fall as we meet King Jesus face-to-face in the Gospel of Matthew, seeking to truly experience personally the Good News of King Jesus together.

Last Sunday’s Message
Micah Labovitch - January 29, 2023
Lord, Let Your Will Be Done
It's sad but true. Sometimes God's people poorly reflect the will and heart of God with one another. Last week Nehemiah had to contend with hostilities from people outside of Israel. In this week's message, the strife is coming from within the community of God's people. Nehemiah sets the example of how a leader, and each of us, should respond to injustice, speak hard truths in love with other believers, and exemplify faith in God, knowing we will all have to give an account before His throne.
Scripture References: Nehemiah 5:1-19, Hebrews 13:17, Exodus 22:25-2528, 1 Timothy 5:19
From Series: "Nehemiah: The Lord Builds His Kingdom"
Sometimes in life, the hardest challenges we face are not just following God in the first place, but rather following Him for the long haul. It is not always easy to fully trust and surrender ourselves to God in every step on the long journey of faith. But God desires to walk with us, lead us, and to see His Kingdom built in us and through us. The book of Nehemiah continues on right where the book of Ezra left off: the people of God have been established back in Jerusalem again, have rebuilt the Temple of God, and have begun the hard process of restoration and sanctification with God. But the story is far from over. Join us for our study of Nehemiah in 2023 as we see God work with His restored people to build His kingdom- through great challenges and trials- all pointing us to what life in the Kingdom of God truly means. Join us as we look to the King and His Kingdom together through Nehemiah in 2023.

Micah Labovitch - November 20, 2022
A Leader of the Covenant Between God and Man
Breaking faith has consequences. The sins of the people affect the corporate whole, which is why, though God's first choice would never be to separate married people, a greater evil was at stake if they remained with the women of foreign people - literally the same nations that God warned against in the book of Deuteronomy - namely that God's chosen people would be lured by their wives to worship other detestable gods, thus breaking God's first and most important commandment.
Scripture References: Ezra 10:1-44, 1 Corinthians 11:23-26, Hebrews 10:11-14, Hebrews 10:1-4, Malachi 2:10-16, Jeremiah 24:4
From Series: "Ezra: The Lord Restores His People"
For seventy years in exile and captivity, the people of God were chastised and broken. Having ignored hundreds of years of warnings from His prophets, God finally allowed Jerusalem to be destroyed and a remnant to be taken to Babylon. His people were devastated, distraught, and disciplined. But then, the call for restoration came. We have all been there. The Lord has allowed us to face the consequences of our choices, and sometimes they have been severe. But then, by the grace of God, the call of restoration comes. This is where the book of Ezra begins. Join us as we study Ezra together this fall, looking at the restoration of God’s people, and how it all ultimately points to the final restoration His people will have in Jesus Christ.
