This year we are reading through the Bible in a year, and the sermons each week will go along with the reading. We begin with the first 11 chapters of Genesis, the “introduction” or “prologue” to the story of the Bible before the narrative thread begins with Abram’s call in Genesis 12. How do these introductory chapters establish the setting and conflict of the story?
(Preaching on Genesis 1-11. This sermon was preached at the Dewey Church of Christ on January 5, 2025.)
John opens his gospel with a peculiar title for Jesus: “the Word.” John repeats this title toward the end of the New Testament, in Revelation. What does this title of Jesus mean, and how does it relate to his work and authority?
(Preaching on the work and identity of Jesus. This sermon was preached at the Dewey Church of Christ on October 27, 2024.)
We continue our look at important words about God with a word that is both an act and a result, the first and most unique power of God.
(Preaching on God. This sermon was preached at the Dewey Church of Christ on February 6, 2022.)
We are told in Romans 1 that at least some part of God’s divine nature can be known through “the things that are made”. What is the nature of deity, and how much of it can we really know?
(This sermon was preached at the Dewey Church of Christ on September 10, 2017. The very beginning got cut off, so it beings somewhat abruptly.)
Who was/is Jesus? This is the central question of John’s gospel, and why he begins the book with a compelling examination of one of the savior’s more interesting monikers: the Word.
(This sermon was preached at the Dewey Church of Christ on June 26, 2016.)
Where did I come from? Why am I here? Where am I going? These are the big three questions of life, and God has an answer. How can we find true meaning and purpose for our lives?
(Preaching through Ephesians. This sermon was preached at the Dewey Church of Christ on August 16, 2015.)
