As you prepare for our time together this Sunday, spend some time praying through John 13:31-35. Following Jesus comes at great cost. We live in a part of the world where religious freedom is still expected. For Joseph and Mary, being obedient to God cost them their homes and their normal lives. What does following Jesus cost you? Are you ready and willing to follow him even if it costs you everything? May God teach you how to value the Kingdom of Christ above your safety.

This Sunday, Drew will expound upon Herod and his opposition to the Kingdom of God and the Messiah. The Kingdom will remain even amidst great political and personal opposition. Come ready to focus and learn about what it may cost follow Christ in a world that doesn’t understand the love of God.

As you prepare for our time together this Sunday, spend some time praying through Psalm 138. Jesus is the King over the universe. He is the one who has raised his name up as a banner for us to follow. Yet, he looks after those who are downcast and lowly. Wherever you find yourself this week, pray that God would reveal his presence to you today, for He is the God of the outcast and alone.

This Sunday, Drew will continue our study through the Gospel according to Matthew. We will study the journey of the Magi and their interaction with King Herod. This text is all about how the Kingdom of God conflicts with the Kingdoms that we build. Come ready to focus and learn about the Kingdom of God.

Sermon Text: Matthew 2:1-12

As you prepare for our time together this Sunday, spend some time praying through Isaiah 29:13-19. Our lives and hearts often turn away from the Lord, though our lips continue to say the right things. May each of us be humbled and challenged to submit our lives to the Holy Spirit and the missionary work that He has given us.

This Sunday, Matthew will continue our study through the Gospel according to Matthew. We will study the incarnation of Christ and the angel’s appearance to Joseph. Though it is not yet Christmas, this text is important to us in every season of the year. Come prepared to celebrate the missionary work of Christ in coming for us in the incarnation.

As you prepare for our time together this Sunday, spend some time praying through Psalm 96:10. “Say among the nations, ‘The LORD reigns! Yes, the world is established; it shall never be moved; he will judge the peoples with equity.’” May God our lives and our words be a declaration to your Kingship over all the earth. You made the world, and only you can move it. You are the righteous judge who will one day return to set things right. Let our lips and our hands be tools for your glory, that many who are far from you might come to know you.

This Sunday, Drew will kick off our new series walking through the Gospel of Matthew. We are so very excited to learn more about Christ and his life through the lens of the apostle Matthew. What a blessing it is to join together to worship and to be reminded of the Gospel anew.
