Ezekiel: From Dry Bones to Resurrecting Grace

2024 Main Sermon Series
January 7 – August 18, 2024
 
The Old Testament is filled with several books of prophecy by people raised up and called by God to deliver a message to His people. These messages are interwoven with God’s enduring love, grace, and mercy, while also dealing with His sinful people who so often chose to disobey and reject Him.

Because of this subject matter, the Old Testament can be heavy material. The Israelites did not welcome these prophecies, which served as warning of judgement and impending destruction to come due to their sinfulness and rejection of the one True God. And now, modern day Christians can also balk at the seemingly harsh message from the Creator of the Universe, however, there is good news to be found in the midst.

God desired to breath new life into the “dry, dead bones” of His people, and He desires to do the same to the rest of the world – you and I – to bring new, resurrected life that we crave. 
 
Join us in 2024 as we study one of these books, Ezekiel, and discover the tremendous message of God’s glory, mercy, and restorative grace that runs throughout the book even in the midst of a broken imperfect world, inhabited by broken, imperfect people.

The Gift of Rest

Advent 2023 Sermon Series
December 3 – December 25 2023
 
The season of Advent, leading up to Christmas morning, can be one of the busiest and spiritless times of our lives.
 
The end of the year is drawing near, school projects are due before Christmas break, cookies need to be made, presents need to be bought, and deciding how the family is going to split their time up visiting everyone can become a huge joy kill during a time when we are supposed to be experiencing the true joy of the Savior.
Is that God what desires for us? Or does He have something better in mind as prepare for the birth of His Son, Jesus?
 
Jesus is the embodiment of the Sabbath Rest God gave to creation in the beginning. God set apart the seventh day to rest from His work, so that the fruit of His work would experience who He truly is as He dwelled with them.
 
As we set apart this time of the year called Advent, let us find the moments to experience rest from the busyness of this season, and experience who Jesus truly is–God with Us, Emmanuel.

The Book of Acts

2022 – 2023 Main Sermon Series
August 28, 2022 – November 19, 2023
 
Sometimes we try to complicate church too much. We try to turn it into an attraction—a commodity that is crafted towards desires and preferences of the current age.
 
Let’s not do that anymore. What if we went back to the beginning and our foundation?
The Book of Acts gives us a clear road map of the expectations and mission for the Church. It contains the passion and zeal of the 12 Apostles, the excitement of crowds of people professing a faith in Christ, and instructions and best practices to maneuver the waves of persecution. We are excited to embark on this journey of discovery and renewal in our new sermon series, “The Book of Acts”, where we will stand on the firm foundation of the early church in rediscovering God’s call for Bethel Presbyterian Church.

Abiding

Lent 2023 Sermon Series
February 26 – April 9, 2023
 
What happens when God moves into the neighborhood and takes up residence, permanently? In The Message version of the Gospel of John, it says concerning Jesus, “The Word became flesh and blood, and moved into the neighborhood.”
 
This literally means, Jesus “tabernacled” or “made a tent” among us. Tents are temporary residences, and Jesus’ physical presence was temporary on His first residency in the world.
 
However, Jesus promises His disciples, and all of us, that in His absence, He will send the Holy Spirit to “dwell” inside all who believe in Him. Only this time, this dwelling will be His continual abiding, permanent residence.
 
Join us this Lenten Season, as we prepare to walk through the final week of Jesus’ ministry, and learn what it means to have the continual, abiding, and permanent residence of the Holy Spirit in our lives.
