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.

Title: The Sacred Name

Passage: Exodus 3:10-15

Speaker: Pastor Ryan Martin

Service: Sunday Morning Worship Service

Date: February 5th, 2017

God calls each one of us to be something extraordinary; he calls each one of us to our life’s work. And in each of these spiritual and vocation callings, we, like Moses, need to trust the God who calls us. Whether we’re Moses leading the children of Israel out of Egypt, or we’re a man who believes God might have called him to be a pastor, or we’re a housewife struggling to homeschool, or we’re a believer struggling to be holy, we, like Moses, need to trust the God who calls us. God’s answers to Moses in this passage give us three reasons to trust God ourselves.

Passage: Exodus 3:1-6

Speaker: Pastor Ryan Martin

Service: Sunday Morning Worship Service

Date: January 29th, 2017

Our passage last Lord’s Day and this one tells of God’s self-revelation to Moses. The Holy Spirit gave us this word that we might too might behold the holy God who dwells in the bush. When we hear texts such as Exodus 3:1-6, we must respond to God’s true revelation of himself with faith and love.

Passage: Exodus 3:1-6

Speaker: Pastor Ryan Martin

Service: Sunday Morning Worship Service

Date: January 15th, 2017

When God reveals himself to men, he does so that they might believe on him and love him, so that we might worship and glorify him. So as we come face to face with a monumental passage like Exodus 3:1-6, the point must always be that we must respond to God’s true revelation of himself with faith and love. If it is true that we must respond to God’s true revelation of himself with faith and love, then we should want to know, how does God reveal himself to us? In the text, we see the Lord reveal himself to Moses in four ways:

Passage: Exodus 2:11-25

Speaker: Pastor Ryan Martin

Date: January 8th, 2017

It has been my contention that these brief episodes from Moses’ life are intended to show to us the vitality of his faith in God and his promises. As we have looked at Moses character during these early years, it has been an encouragement to us that we too must trust the wise providence of our invisible God:

Title: With the Angels Let Us Sing Part 2

Passage: Luke 2: 10-14

Speaker: Pastor Ryan Martin

Service: Sunday Morning Worship Service

Date: January 1st, 2017

The birth of Christ brings good news to sinners because the child born is the Lord himself, because the child born is the human Christ, and because the child is born in historical humility. This week, as we gather around the Table, I want to consider the next two verses. They show the proper response to the good news that Jesus has come. Jesus’ birth and all that it means for poor sinners has one fitting response: praise. I want to draw your attention to three important truths in these two verses.

Passage: Luke 2: 10-14

Speaker: Pastor Ryan Martin

Service: Sunday Morning Worship Service

Date: December 25th, Christmas Day 2016

At one moment, the shepherds are afraid they’re going to perish; the next, they have abundant cause for the highest happiness. And, perhaps best of all, the good news is good news from the most High God, a powerful proof that he loves his people. Though in context, the good news is for all the people—that is, all the Jewish people—this good news will in due time come to us all the world. The point of the angel’s message is that the birth of Jesus is God’s good news for sinful people. According to the angel’s words, there are three ways the birth of Jesus is God’s good news for sinful people.

Passage: Exodus 2: 11-22

Speaker: Pastor Ryan Martin

Service: Sunday Morning Worship Service

Date: December 18th, 2016

As people who have put our faith in Jesus Christ, who have been graciously chosen by God for eternal salvation, we, like Moses, must trust the wise providence of our invisible God. This is what Moses had to do in these events, and that’s what we must do, even when God leads in ways and through circumstances we do not understand. How do we do this? Moses gives us three examples of how to do this. This week’s sermon is about the second example.
