A Light Has Dawned

A Light Has Dawned

Isaiah 9.1-7, Matthew 4.12-17

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.

But once again, Jesus turns their carefully crafted trap into a powerful lesson about what it really means to live as a citizen of God's Kingdom.

Guest speaker, Rev. Kevin James brings us a special message to celebrate our 195th Founder's Day.

The religious leaders have confronted Jesus in regards to his overturning the tables in the temple asking, "What gives you the right to do these things?" "What gives you the authority?" Join Pastor Greg as he reviews the authority of Jesus laid out in scripture and shows how Jesus transferred that authority onto his disciples and his followers today.

Politics is everywhere, and it has a way of stirring up strong opinions, dividing people, and competing for our loyalty. But what if, instead of allowing our politics to shape the way we follow Jesus, we allowed Jesus to challenge--and shape--the way we do politics? Join Pastor Greg as he shows us through Luke's account of Jesus entering Jerusalem how this can be done.
