Risking your Reputation
Mark 2:13-17 | Ryan MacDonald In this sermon from Mark 2:13–17, Ryan MacDonald—our future Church Planter in Residence—unpacks the radical grace of Jesus, who came not for the righteous, but for sinners. As Jesus dines with tax collectors and outcasts, we see the heart of the gospel on full display: Christ is the Great Physician, and He seeks out the spiritually sick with compassion and authority. Ryan invites us to examine our own hearts, reminding us that true healing begins not with self-right...

Gospel People
1 Thessalonians 1:2-10 | Andrew Murch In the first sermon of A Gospel Church series, Pastor Andrew Murch preaches from 1 Thessalonians 1:2-10. The gospel spreads where it takes root, producing faithful fruit even in the midst of affliction. Like the Thessalonians, we are rooted by the work of the Father, empowered by the Spirit, and secured by the Son. Though news travels fast and we are inundated with headlines, the report here is that God saves a people and forms a family of faith. Gospel peop...

The Promised King
Zechariah 9:9-13 | Andrew Murch | "Behold, your king is coming to you; righteous and having salvation is he, humble and mounted on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey" (v. 9b). Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem is recorded in all four Gospels, and two gospel writers, Matthew and John, go so ffar as to cite a particular Old Testament passage an connect it with this moment. In Zechariah 9:9-13, God promises his people that their king is coming and that he is bringinations and salvation f...

The King of Kings
Joshua 12:1-13:7 | Andrew Murch | Often when we study scripture it is easy to fall into the temptation of wanting to quickly “skip or skim over” the chapters that are made up of lists. These lists could be a list of covenant commandments, a list of family members or as we see in our passage this week, a summarized list of conquered kings. But if we humble ourselves to the study of God’s word, we will come to realize the depth and magnitude that these lists can speak to us regarding the character...

Two-Way Street
Joshua 11:1-23 | Andrew Murch | The question before us centers on why we should care about these narratives in Joshua. Aren’t they just bedtime stories we read to our children? 1 Corinthians 10:11 tells us why the historical books in both the Old Testament and New Testament are so important. “Now these things happened to them as an example, but they were written down for our instruction.” The narratives that we read are all lessons that we are to learn from those who went before us. As we read a...

Joshua 10:16-43
Joshua 10:16-43 | Stephen Collins | While Israel lived like He had commanded, God took the Israelites' meager force, listened to Joshua and the Israelites, and worked a mighty victory with them. God likes to work with us, even though he does not need us. He holds victory in his hands, but, like a good father, he likes to act with his children. The Lord of the sun and all of creation even bends nature’s laws that he put into place at the beginning of the universe’s natural processes. He is not li...

The Longest Day
Joshua 10:1-15 | Andrew Murch | One thing to keep in mind as we read through Joshua is that the Lord is carrying out his judgment on the people in the land. Sometimes God uses man as his sword, but he is more than capable of carrying out his offensives without us. The focus of this passage is not on the martial might of Israel calling in the heavenly artillery by summoning a deity to fight for them. The Lord himself throws hailstones down on the Amorites, and most of the fallen were from his han...

Missing God
Joshua 9:1-27 | Andrew Murch | In Joshua 9 the Nation of Israel continues its conquest of the land of Canaan. They are fresh off victories in Jericho and Ai so the Canaanites know that they have a target on their backs. Therefore they decide to band together as one to fight Joshua and Israel. Enter the Gibeonites (the Hivites). Gibeon was a town about 6 miles northwest of Jerusalem, in modern-day El-Jib. The Gibeonites knew that the Israelites had defeated Jericho and Ai and decided to act cunni...

Round Two
Joshua 8:1-35 | Andrew Murch | God often uses our setbacks and failures to teach us to rely on Him more completely. In this chapter, we see Joshua grow as a leader as he learns to walk in deeper dependence upon the LORD. We see God take the very means of their earlier defeat at Ai and turn it into a brilliant strategy for victory. God’s plan to deliver his people is back on track. Joshua’s position as a leader is strengthened, and Joshua gains a new understanding of God’s steadfast mercy and sov...

Crime and Punishment
Joshua 7:1-26 | Andrew Murch | As Israel approaches their next adversary, Ai (not to be confused with artificial intelligence), all indications are that this should be a cake walk. Picture a sense of pridefulness and a bit of arrogance here. The recommendation is to only send a small squad, maybe the JV team (don’t bother the whole group with such a small town.) Then, something goes horribly wrong. What happened, why did it all go south? What can we learn from this defeat? What can we learn from...

Joshua 5:13-6:27
Joshua 5:13-6:27 | Josh Lane | This week we have a familiar story of Joshua leading the Israelites against the fortified city of Jericho. They had just miraculously crossed over the Jordan River, set themselves apart by circumcising all the men, and now Joshua experiences a conversation with God. At this point Joshua is clearly set apart for the task of leading Israel against the city of Jericho. This is an impossible task done in an improbable way. God gave Joshua instructions to take the city,...

Stones from the River
Joshua 4:1-24 | Andrew Murch | Do you have something that brings up memories or starts conversations with others? Maybe a tattoo, a scar, or something hanging up in the house that stands out from what you’d normally see in someone’s house? We tend to put things out on display for ourselves but usually it catches the eyes of others and sometimes leads to discussions. For the Israelites, God had instructed twelve men, one from each tribe, to take up a stone from the riverbed of the Jordan and plac...

Delivering on a Promise
Joshua 3:1-17 | Andrew Murch | Years of wandering are about to end. It is hard to imagine what’s on the minds and the hearts of the people. You might remember Joshua had been to the Promised Land forty years earlier. As a spy he came back to Moses with a positive report and encouragement to go in and possess the land, only to be shouted down. The crowd won the day, with their fearful disobedience earning them exile in the desert until that generation’s death. Joshua was a young man and now he is...

Redemption
Joshua 2:1-24 | Andrew Murch | Joshua 2 introduces us to someone, who is quite honestly, unexpected as someone God would use. Her name is Rahab. She is mentioned alongside towering figures of the faith such as Abraham, Moses, Noah, Gideon, and King David in Hebrews Chapter 11. How is this possible? Why is it so shocking and unexpected? It’s surprising because Rahab is a prostitute. And almost every time her name is mentioned in the Bible she is known as Rahab the prostitute. Not a religious gian...

Graveside Faith
In this first chapter of Joshua, God calls Joshua to lead the people into the land, the land he has given them. But it will take strength, courage, and commitment to follow God’s law as well as trust that God is with them always. The Israelites will need this as they conquer the land.

Inattentional Blindness
Luke 17:11-19 | Nathan Noorlun | “Were not ten cleansed? Where are the nine?" In this week's passage, Jesus encounters and heals 10 men afflicted with leprosy. When only one man returns, we discover all the men were healed, but only one was truly healed.
