SAMUEL: Epilogue
John Vermilya // December 5, 2021 David was a shepherd, soldier, musician, outlaw, king, and poet. He was also an adulterer, murderer, and not so good husband and father. How was he a man after God’s own heart?
SAMUEL: Plague
John Vermilya // November 28, 2021 The result of faith in God is to trust Him. But when things are difficult, hard to understand, or out of our control, trusting God isn’t easy. The great danger of not trusting God is a spiritual plague that ravages lives.
SAMUEL: Mighty Men
John Vermilya // November 21, 2021 Whenever God does a significant work in human history it’s through a band of totally committed people. But what does total commitment really look like?
SAMUEL: This God
Tim Burgess // November 14, 2021 God is faithful and keeps His covenant with those who love Him. David earned nothing. In fact, his life was vastly affected by his sin and it’s consequences. His faith, in contrast, redeemed him.
SAMUEL: Humble Forgiveness
Tim Burgess // October 24, 2021 After the strife in Israel leading to the death of Absalom, civil war and the eventual return to Jerusalem of King David from exile we are at a crossroad.

SAMUEL: Absalom Part 1
John Vermilya // October 10, 2021 How we respond to the pain of life determines everything about us. We can hang on to that pain and let it define us, or choose to give it to God and get moving.
SAMUEL: Sins of the Father
John Vermilya // October 3, 2021 The cursed consequences of sin separate us from God, one another, and desolate future generations. Is there anything we can do to break that cycle?
CONNECT: Outreach
John Vermilya // September 26, 2021 “Go and make disciples,” was Jesus’ final command. When we obey and multiply, we connect others to God and get better connected ourselves.
CONNECT: Service
Britton Bishop // September 19, 2021 We have been called by Jesus to Love God, and Love People. Serving is the best way to do this. The issue is we have stopped taking Jesus at His word and example.
CONNECT: Groups
Tim Burgess // September 12, 2021 Connect is a 3-week topical Fall kick-off series that will teach and remind the Tabernacle how to get connected with the spiritual pathways that produce disciples. In scripture we see Jesus using 5 primary strategies in disciple-making, and we encourage people to do the same.
