Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Scott KerchevilleWhy do we obey God? Why do we work hard to not disobey him? Why has Jesus’ freed us from the curse of sin? What is the purpose? We are going to consider the story of Joseph as an example of what God does with his obedient children. I want us to see in action what God has saved us to do and why it is imperative that we obey God’s voice. In Genesis, God created Adam and Eve and blessed them them with the task to be fruitful and multiply. But Adam and Eve disobeyed God’s voice, so they were…

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Scott KerchevilleIt is already summer and the kids get to rest. Remember what that was like, adults? I remember how hard it was my first couple of summers out of college to grapple with the fact that summer means nothing as an adult. You have now stepped onto the hamster wheel and you have to keep running till you die — no rest. When God made the heavens and earth, it was it was formless and void — disordered and empty. But God ordered it and filled it over the course of six days and then rested on the seventh day.  …

Series: 1 Peter (Living in Exile)Service: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Scott KerchevilleWhen we were younger there were certain kids shows we weren’t allowed to watch. Even some kids shows make bad attitudes seem normal. The show “Rugrats” was like that. The characters were hostile to one another — always fighting and whining about something. However realistic that may be, my parents could see a difference in how we brothers treated one another after watching shows like that.  We are not of the world, but we do live in the world. The world is always carrying on doing its thing, and we are onlookers. Living as foreigners in the world carries the challenge…

Series: 1 Peter (Living in Exile)Service: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Scott KerchevilleI grew up in a home with three other brothers, but no sisters. Ashley travelled to Arkansas to meet my family in the summer of 2009 in between our sophomore and junior years of college. One day we went canoeing and then came back to the house to play a card game named “Nerts.” It is a fast-paced game and it always got rowdy in my family. We called names, slapped, pushed, threw cards. It was great. After we cleaned up, I realized Ashley had disappeared. I found her in her bedroom crying. “You guys are so mean! You all…

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Scott KerchevillePaul is writing to the Philippians in chains from prison encouraging them to be joyful and united.  For them to live needs to mean Christ. The world is fighting against them, so they cannot be distracted. Sometimes this is seen in physical danger. More often, enemies of the cross do battle in a more seductive manner. That’s one thing we see in Revelation. The beast threatens with fear and violent force; the prostitute spreads her legs. What ought we to do in light of the war being launched against Jesus and his body? Let’s read Philippians 1:27-30.  Behave As Citizens Worthy…

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Scott KerchevilleLuke presents Jesus as one who is fulfilling God’s promises of old. Jesus’ family and John’s family were not law-breakers but law-keepers — circumcising, sacrificing, and participating in Israel’s feasts. He is not novel, but he is indeed doing a new thing that is based on an old thing. Redemptive history is taking a massive step forward towards the marriage of God with his people as Jesus steps on the scene. With a new step in redemptive history come new practices. Jesus’ is not trashing the law, but bringing it to its intended completion. But Jesus’ new practices for a…

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Scott KerchevilleScott K. — Making the Resurrection Real Today (Romans 6) — 4/4/21 Early on Sunday morning nearly two thousand years ago, a few women went to Jesus’ tomb to anoint his body. Jesus was supposed to be the hope of Israel and of the world. And yet, he had been falsely accused and murdered. Now, this wasn’t the first time something like this happened. In these days, plenty of Jews picked up swords and claimed they were going to overthrow the enemies and usher in new age of peace and devotion to God. They amassed hundreds of followers. But then Rome…

Series: 1 Peter (Living in Exile)Service: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Scott Kercheville(Scripture Reading) Isaiah 3:16-24 (NIV11). “The women of Zion are haughty, walking along with outstretched necks, flirting with their eyes, strutting along with swaying hips, with ornaments jingling on their ankles. Therefore the Lord will bring sores on the heads of the women of Zion; the LORD will make their scalps bald.” In that day the Lord will snatch away their finery: the bangles and headbands and crescent necklaces, the earrings and bracelets and veils, the headdresses and anklets and sashes, the perfume bottles and charms, the signet rings and nose rings, the fine robes and the capes and cloaks,…

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Scott KerchevilleOne of the most frustrating things about reading the Bible is how often people who have the power and opportunity to make everything so much better mess everything up. There has only ever been one time when everything went perfect and as planned. God created the and formed the world in six day and on the seventh day he rested. Everything was very good. The water stopped where it was supposed to, trees bore fruit, birds were chirping, Adam and Eve were naked. God walked with his people in Eden — this perfect Paradise and garden temple. They were to…
