Exile & Gathering, Micah 1:1-2:13

Passage: Micah 1:1-2:13

Speaker: Pastor Ryan Martin

Service: Sunday Morning Worship Service

Date: February 2nd, 2021

The book written by the prophet Micah contains three distinct sections or oracles: chapters 1-2, 3-5, and 6-7. The main message of Micah’s first oracle is that, while God will bring the judgment of exile, salvation is available to those who by grace believe in Yahweh.

The Spirit, the Sabbath, & the Sanctuary (Worship Service, January 6th, 2019)

Title: The Spirit, the Sabbath, & the Sanctuary

Passage: Exodus 31

Speaker: Pastor Ryan Martin

Service: Sunday Morning Worship Service

Date: January 6, 2019

There are two big ideas in Exodus 31. First, the gracious aid God gives his people to do his work. He helps them build his tabernacle. Second, Israel must be like Yahweh in resting after their work. But what Exodus 31 also shows is that Israel’s work in the sanctuary is much like God’s creation of Eden long ago.

The Sacred Name, Part 2 (Worship Service, February 19th, 2017)

Title: The Sacred Name, Part 2

Passage: Exodus 3:10-15

Speaker: Pastor Ryan Martin

Service: Sunday Morning Worship Service

Date: February 19th, 2017

In a way similar to his call of Moses, God calls us to do extraordinary, things for his sake. He calls us to tasks we are unequal to. I include with this our response to God’s calling on us as Christians, in our vocations and responsibilities, and as evangelists and ministers of Christ to others. As we hear God’s response to Moses, I want us to respond the way God wants Moses to respond: with trust. We must trust the God who calls us.
