Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Scott KerchevilleMany of us have suffered for a variety of reasons over the past couple of years. The hearers of Hebrews were suffering too. What was it all for? How could they and how can we endure? Earlier, Hebrews encouraged them with the story of the Israelites. Israel left slavery in Egypt, but when the going became tough, their faith did not last the wilderness: they stopped boasting in their hope and refused to trust God could bring rest in the promised land. So they died in the wilderness. Hebrews wants us to see that we have taken up Israel’s pilgrimage…

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Scott KerchevilleMany of us have suffered in the past couple years. The pandemic, physical and mental health, economic struggles, marriage and family strife, persecution, friends abandoning us, and more. In these times we want to know what the Scriptures say to us. How ought we to think of these various trials? How can we endure? What are they for? The hearers of Hebrews knew suffering and they were at a crossroads. Years ago when they began to follow Jesus they suffered great losses. They were publicly criticized and afflicted. Some were thrown in prison, but these Christians took on their shame and…

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Scott KerchevilleThe Scripture reading is from John 11:38-53. I’ll never forget this Babylon Bee article I saw a few years ago: “Man Bravely Abandons Unpopular Christian Belief to Affirm Extremely Popular Cultural Belief.”--PORTLAND, OR - Local Christian blogger Jonathan Pennington is being called a hero by progressive theologians after he courageously abandoned an extremely unpopular Christian teaching in order to instead affirm a very popular belief held in wider secular culture, sources confirmed Wednesday."I know this is going to get me a lot of praise from secular culture, but I have to do it anyway because my conscience compels me," Pennington wrote on…

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Scott KerchevilleThe other day I was trying to snuggle Judith to sleep in our dark room, but she wouldn’t go down. She was screaming, so I brought her out to Ashley in the living room. When I opened the door  — light! She threw her head back wondering what just happened. Light really doesn’t seem like that big of a deal unless you have just come out of darkness. John has helped us see the importance of Noah’s faith, and I want to further bring Noah’s faith into focus by looking at what everyone else was doing before the flood. When…

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Scott KerchevilleThe question Jesus will answer in our text today is this: why do different people react so differently to the word of God? But let’s quickly set the context, because this parable could be an explanation of what has been happening over the last two chapters. 11:18-19 — People malign Jesus as a glutton, drunkard, and friend of sinners.11:20-24 — The cities where Jesus did most of his mighty works did not repent.11:25-29 — The Father has hidden Truth from the wise of this age and revealed it to children.12:1-8 — The Pharisees condemned Jesus’ disciples though they were guiltless.12:9-14 —…

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Scott KerchevilleA lot of people in Uvalde, Russia, Ukraine, and elsewhere are reasonably wondering what God is up to right now. Whether it's now or later, big or small, personal, communal, or global, we all encounter times where we wonder what God is up to, why Jesus is delayed in coming, what is really true, and if waiting through this delay and uncertainty will be worth it. The Israelites had been slaves in Egypt, but God sent Moses to lead them out through the Red Sea and the wilderness to himself at Mount Sinai. While Israel was at the foot of the mountain,…
