Joshua: Week 4
Joshua sends two men into the land as spies to prep before the people cross the Jordan. In Jericho they meet a prostitute named Rahab who helps them with lodging and an escape from the city. In Joshua 2 God saves, redeems, and uses very ordinary people.
Joshua: Week 3
In Joshua 1 we see a vivid example of how God expects spiritual authority to work among his people. In all things, God is our ultimate authority, just as he was Joshua's and all of Israel's. Joshua is a good leader who submits to God's authority, obeys him, and works to foster unity among the people he is leading.
Joshua: Week 2
Moses is dead, and Joshua is in. After years of waiting, wandering, and suffering because of the sinfulness of a previous generation, Joshua is given the green light to enter the Promised Land with God's people. Joshua is to remember God's continual presence, he is to be strong and courageous, and most importantly he is to be obedient.
Joshua: Week 1
This message sets up the background for the Old Testament book of Joshua and the man Joshua. Joshua is a book about Jesus, and our continual need to choose him over our idols. Will Jesus be First or will you? Make a choice.
Jesus Our Redeemer
Sometimes it seems like a weird detail that Jesus, Joseph, and Mary escaped to Egypt to avoid Herod's insanity in Matthew 2, but the reason was to fulfill prophecy and to identify Jesus with his people. In the original Exodus of the Old Testament God redeemed his people from the captivity of Pharaoh. It all foreshadowed the new exodus where God redeems his people from the captivity of sin by the finished work of Jesus on the cross.
The Wise Men, The Fool, and Grace
Jesus would have been a toddler at the time a group of "wise men" from the east showed up at his mother's door to worship the boy born as King of the Jews. Their journey was costly and the gifts they brought were incredibly valuable. Herod the Great (appointed by Rome to rule in that region as "King of the Jews") was troubled by their arrival when he learned that a threat to his throne had been born nearby. But Jesus' mother, Mary, would have experienced their arrival as an incredible expression of God's grace and steadfast love.
The Birth of Jesus & The Obedie...
Matthew writes his gospel to a Jewish audience, and tends to focus on Joseph in his account of Jesus' first coming. The obedience of Jesus' adopted dad, Joseph, is a great example for us. He loved his wife Mary well and he was quick to obey God when God spoke to him. God speaks to us primarily through his written Word, and we, like Joseph, need to believe his Word and act upon it, no matter how we feel, because God promises a good result.
Isaiah 9:6 | Wallpaper

The Genealogy of Jesus Christ
Why does God include genealogies in the Bible? In Jesus' family tree are prostitutes, noblemen, cowards, warriors, redeemers, murderers & kings… and Jesus would be Savior of them all. No matter who you are or what you've done, Jesus loves you, can save you, and will use you to build his Kingdom. (Matthew 1:1-17)
