The idea of being missional, or on mission for God, can sound very good. Butoften, while accepting the concept, Christians fail in the application of being sent into this worldas Christ was sent.

Money and possessions are the great idols of America. But it is obviousfrom the words of Jesus that they are the idols of mankind as well. How do we view money?What are the purposes of possessions? When is enough, enough? So how do we answer theseand other questions? Pastor Henry shows that the answer starts and ends with worship—youcannot serve bo…

n this second part on unity Pastor Henry reminds hiscongregation what their responsibility before man and God is to be. EveryChristian possesses the unity of the Spirt, but the unity of the faith is somethingthat no church will ever fully attain this side of eternity. Nonetheless, it issomething that our Lord expects us to strive after with every f…

The unity of the Spirit is something that every church and every Christianmust hold to jealously. Unity is a natural outcome of the gospel. Once disunity is tolerated, sinand shame is sure to follow. But what is it? And how do we go about maintaining it? These areexplored in this message.بقلم Matthew Henry

Pastor Henry shows how the gospel must be central in allthat we do. From the foundation of the church to its building up, the gospel has toflow in and out of it. And to the degree the church stays faithful to that gospel, itwill be healthy, holy, and missional. Paul gives us a clear pathway to follow in thismanner; one that he walked, and one that …

How does a Christian grow? While this may seem obvioustoo often the answer is anything but the gospel. But that is deadly to the life ofeach Christian and must be remedied. Pastor Henry seeks to help his congregationto see that the gospel is not something believed and then forgotten; rather it is todefine and instruct in all our walk. And only thro…

Jesus did not save us for us to sit on our rear ends andrelax. He saved us to send us, just and His Father sent Him into this dark world.But too often we as Christians fail to see this, or to take this responsibilityseriously. That is sin and it must be repented of by God's people. In this messagePastor Henry tries to begin to unlock the meaning of…

In a courtroom setting God calls all of heaven and earth to act as witnessesas He brings charges against His covenant people, Israel. And in doing so we are given a solidglimpse into how those who claim to love God slip into grave sin and, if not stopped, intoapostasy.بقلم Matthew Henry

In this chapter we see what appears to be the triumph of evil and thereality that the only true victor is God Himself. We start with a murder of a humble Christian andwe end with the death of an evil king and the ongoing spread of the gospel.بقلم Matthew Henry

The author, Luke, has been inexorably pressing forward to what amountsto the bursting of a dam. The gospel is not for a people group, it is for the world and in thischapter we see the breaching of the dam as the gospel begins to press rapidly outward into theGentile lands. And as we examine this story we also have the opportunity to learn a few key…

There is much confusion and even division within the Church regardingthe work of the Spirit. Often this is due to a poor understanding of terms that are vitallyconnected to His work in the Church. This sermon is designed to clarify and correct manymisconceptions so that there might be better unity.بقلم Matthew Henry

We continue in this examination of the story of Cornelius the Centurion and Peter the Apostle. We discover how Peter comes to learn how the gospel affects everything, including his precious connections to the old way of worshiping YHWH. It is a critical shiftingof thought for the purpose of gathering in the Gentiles in Christ.…

We now are privileged to see the expansion of the gospel to the Gentiles. Cornelius serves as a key turning point in how God is working out His redemptive plan. We see the way visions guided the people in the story. We see how doubts play into all of this and yet the triumph of God's grace.بقلم Matthew Henry
