INVITE | They Invite
John Vermilya // April 4, 2020 God intends disciples to multiply disciples. After the triumphal entry Jesus preached a sermon on how a grain of wheat must die in order to multiply more fruit.

INVITE | You Invite
John Vermilya // March 22, 2020 God invites so you invite. God invites all of us into relationship because He loves us.

JUDGES | Hollow Worship
John Vermilya // February 8, 2020 Today we fall into the traps of worshipping God on our own terms, with images that we fashion, when it’s convenient, and never really giving God control. The bottom line for us is to worship God as he is, not as we want him to be.

JUDGES | Samson’s Death
John Vermilya // February 1, 2020 Samson is regarded in the Hebrews 11 hall of faith. This can only be a testament to salvation by grace alone through faith alone. It is staggering to consider what Samson could have been and done for God. Built before being too hard on Samson, we can also see…

JUDGES | The Weak Strongman
Ben Brown // January 25, 2020 In chapters 14 and 15 we see the weakness of Samson the strongman. The saga of Samson makes him out to be a superhero on the surface, but also reveals deep flaws in his character. Though Samson did great things for God, it is staggering to consider what he…
