Join Pastor Greg as he shares a vacation experience that he discovered that Jesus blesses us in ways we don't normally expect.

Daniel and Sarah Patino share about their ministry among the college students at Virginia Tech.

Isaiah again looks ahead to a time when the Lord will raise up a perfect king. We know this leader as Jesus, the Christ. When King Jesus was on the earth, he began establishing his (upside-down) kingdom--making disciples and inviting others to participate in Kingdom works. Join Pastor Greg as he shares how we can join in on this kingdom and become a part of its glorious fulfillment.

Isaiah is prophesying destruction against the people because of their unfaithfulness and turning to the pagan nation of Assyria for help instead of waiting on God. In this passage, Isaiah reveals that Assyria is actually a tool that God uses to bring punishment and to correct his people. However, God will not totally destroy his but that a remnant will survive who will turn back to God. Join Pastor Greg as he shares how we can become remnant-minded people.

Isaiah prophesies that the rebellion of the nation Judah against God will lead to the doom and gloom of war and exile. However, chapter 9 points to a new beginning. Isaiah tells the people that a new day is coming when there will be no more war and God's people are led by an ideal ruler, A Messiah, who is the true light. The Gospel writer Matthew uses these words from Isaiah to show his readers that Jesus is the fulfillment of that prophecy.

Last week we examined how King Ahaz failed to wait on the Lord but made plans for an unhealthy alliance with a neighboring pagan nation. In chapter 8, God turns his attention to the people of Judah who, like their king, are caught up in the political machinations of the time. They have failed to consult and place their trust in the Lord their God. Join Pastor Greg as he shares how God offers the people of Judah another chance, and how they respond will determine their experience of him moving forward.
