Join us for this sermon from Epiphany 1, The Baptism of Our Lord, Matthew 3:13-17, where we unpack the age old question: "Why Was Jesus Baptized?"

This is a reflection of Luke 2:41-52 preached on the Second Sunday of Christmas 2026

Isaiah 35:1–10 paints a vision of hope, restoration, and transformation. In this sermon, we explore how God brings life to the desert moments of our lives—restoring the blind, the lame, and the weary—and invites us to experience true joy and renewal. A message of encouragement for all who long for God’s healing and faithfulness in every season.

This message explores Isaiah 11:1–10, one of Scripture’s most compelling visions of the Messiah’s reign. The passage opens with the promise of a shoot emerging from the stump of Jesse—a sign that God brings life out of what seems lifeless. We reflect on the character of the Messiah, anointed with the Spirit in fullness, who judges with righteousness, restores creation, and brings peace where hostility once reigned.

This sermon invites us to consider how Christ fulfills this prophecy and how His peace shapes the Church’s life and witness today. It is a call to renewed hope, steadfast faith, and active participation in God’s redemptive work.

In this sermon for Advent 1, 2025, we explore Isaiah 2:1-5.
