2021 Easter Services (All Services)
Join us for our 2021 Easter services as we remember and celebrate the suffering, death, and resurrection of the Lord Jesus.
Good Friday: The Darkness Before the Dawn
Mark 15:33-38 contains Mark’s account of the final three hours of the crucifixion of our Lord. In these verses we find in shorthand the profound mystery of the cross–the significance of what was accomplished on Calvary through two signs, namley, the cup poured out and the curtain torn in two.
Worship 103: Genre and Style in Church Music
Genre and style are two of the most visible features of congregational worship music—and therefore, two of the most important. For this very reason, it's critical that we understand them rightly and approach them biblically.
A Beginner’s Guide to Family Devotions
Many Christian parents feel at a loss when it comes to "family devotions." Sometimes we wrongly see it as a way of evaluating our spirituality, but sometimes we simply don't know where to start. Here is a beginner's guide to leading our families in communion together around God's word.
J. Gresham Machen on True Preaching and Christian Growth
Powerful and powerfully-relevant insight on the place of “doctrinal preaching” in the life of Christians from one of the greatest Christian minds of the past 150 years.
Worship 102: Putting the “Congregation” in Congregational Worship
God’s design for music in the church is that it be congregational, which implies that it be both "clear" and "true." In part 2 of our Worship 101 series, we try to break down those terms and talk about what they mean practically.
Getting a “Handel” on Christmas
Handel's Messiah is not merely the singing of a few Bible verses. It is a masterful and comprehensive presentation of the gospel in all its glory. Because of how commonplace it is during this time of year, it provides Christians with a unique opportunity for both worship and evangelism.
Worship 101: A Practical Theology of Music in the Church
The question of worship music in the church has been called "the worship war" for a reason. In this first article of a new series called "Worship 101," we look at some ground-level principles from God's Word that help give us a biblical starting point on this tough subject.
Reforming Halloween
What are we to do with Halloween as Christians? Is it sin…or not? Unfortunately, many believers are often too caught up in the controversy of Halloween to see the real opportunities there are to redeem the day for the cause of Christ.
How Christians Should Vote
In part 1, we looked at how American Christians should understand and think about the vote. Here in part 2, we'll talk about the practical nuts and bolts of what it means for Christians to vote according to biblical principles.
