SERMON SERIES

CHAPTER THREE

Rebellion in the Garden

Something terrible happens in the Garden of Eden that sets the world upside down. Christians call it "the fall," when the serpent misleads the first man and woman to disobey God and face the terrible consequences. We live in the wake of this moral disaster. But how did it go down? What happened as a result? And is there any coming back from such a disastrous moment? Join us as we continue our slow walk through the early chapters of Genesis in "Chapter Three: Rebellion in the Garden."

Chapter Two

After Creation, God made man and woman from dust and placed them in a garden called Eden where they are given everything they need to thrive. They are also given a test. We know what happens in this test. But what did we miss about the garden itself? Join us as our slow walk takes us into the peaceful mists of the Garden of Eden.

Chapter One

Chapter One introduces language and ideas that recur repeatedly throughout the Bible—all the way to the end. And we learn an awful lot about God in Genesis one: his power, beauty, and love. Take a slow walk through the creation of the world.

Sin

“Sin” is a churchy and religious-sounding word that we don’t really understand. But in order to grasp what it means to be forgiven of sins, we need to get what it means to be sinners in the first place.

Six Reason I Might Lose My Faith & Six Reasons I Won't

Belief is hard and doubt is real. Lots of people walk away from Christianity for many reasons. Questioning faith is not a sin. We spent 12 weeks discussing "Six Reasons I Might Lose My Faith, and Six Reasons I Won't."

Isaiah: The Future King

The book of Isaiah includes some of the most inspiring and beautiful prophecies on the coming Messiah, sent by God to rescue his people from sin and death. Who is this future king, and what can we learn about him from Isaiah? 

Isaiah: Promises, Promises

In the Old Testament book of Isaiah, God makes certain promises to his people. He promises them a future of peace, power, and hope. His people have suffered for a long time, and he promises them something better. What are those promises? 

Isaiah: The Way Back

The prophet Isaiah was called by God to announce his judgment on the people of Judah. But he also proclaimed a way back to the God who had not completely abandoned them. We think you'll find that the way back might not be as as hard as you think.

Isaiah: What Happened

The book of Isaiah is filled with poetry and prophecies. But it’s also filled with history. Isaiah tells the story of God’s people in Judah before, during, and after their devastation by Babylon. Isaiah had predicted the fall of his nation because of their sin It’s a gripping story that is violent and yet hopeful. It’s also our story. But God has a plan to bring us back. 

Isaiah: The Lord Is...

The book of Isaiah is not only filled with stories, warnings, and prophecies, but it paints a picture of who God is. Why is it important for Isaiah to describe God in his writings? What did God's people need to know about God's character? Join us for this series as we reveal Isaiah's descriptions of God and how they are relevant for us today. 

Isaiah: Man on Fire

What does it mean to be a prophet? The prophet Isaiah is called by God to be a watchman warning Judah of the dangers ahead—warnings they didn’t heed. God gives us watchmen, too—but it’s up to us to listen to their warnings.

Isaiah: Isaiah For Today

The book of Isaiah is a collection of Isaiah’s warnings and prophecies. It’s one of the most important books in the Old Testament. We think you’ll find the words of a naked prophet in Jerusalem from thousands of years ago strangely relevant for today.
