Living by the Word: Righteous by Faith: The Only Way (Habakkuk 2:2-4) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The sermon addresses the "problem of righteousness," contrasting God’s absolute holiness with humanity’s total depravity. Pastor Glenn systematically dismantles man-made attempts to bridge this gap through religion, morality, or self-declaration, instead pointing to our desperate need for "foreign righteousness"—the righteousness of Christ credited to us. This leads to the "Great Exchange," where Jesus takes our sin and offers His perfect life in return. Defining biblical faith not as a blind le
Living by the Word: The Not Fair Argument (Habakkuk 1:12–2:1) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this installment of the Habakkuk series, Pastor Glenn explores the "cognitive dissonance" believers feel when the world’s injustice appears to contradict God’s character. Following God’s shocking revelation that He would use the ruthless Chaldeans to punish Judah, Habakkuk enters a spiritual "courtroom" to wrestle with the Almighty. Pastor Glenn breaks down the prophet’s three-part argument based on the holiness of God, the helplessness of His people, and the haughty pride of the enemy. The s
Living by the Word: The Answer You Didn’t Expect (Habakkuk 1:5–11) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this compelling message, Pastor Glenn dives into Habakkuk 1:5–11 to explore how God responds when His people cry out for justice. Habakkuk’s lament over the wickedness in Judah receives an answer that is as shocking today as it was then: God is raising up the Chaldeans—a fierce, violent, and godless nation—to execute His discipline. This sermon challenges the listener to move beyond a "comfortable" faith and confront the "astonishing" and often "terrifying" reality of God’s methods. Pastor Gl
Living by the Word: Habakkuk(Why We Worship): When God Seems Silent Habakkuk 1:1-14 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this opening message of a new series, Pastor Glenn dives into the minor prophet Habakkuk, exploring the timeless and difficult question: What do we do when God appears silent in the face of evil? Habakkuk lived during a period of intense upheaval, the decline of the Southern Kingdom of Judah under the oppressive and wicked King Jehoiakim. As violence, injustice, and spiritual rebellion ran rampant, Habakkuk did not shy away from wrestling with God. Pastor Glenn provides a deep historical and
Living by the Word: Happier the Hated(Matthew 5:10-12) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this final installment of a series on kingdom citizenship, Pastor Glenn explores the challenging final Beatitude: "Blessed are those who have been persecuted for the sake of righteousness." The sermon, titled "Happier the Hated," argues that true kingdom character—being poor in spirit, mourning over sin, and acting as a peacemaker—inevitably leads to friction with a world that rejects Christ. scripture: Matthew 5:10-12; Matthew 5:3-9; Matthew 5:13-16; Matthew 5:17-20; Matthew 7:24-27; 1 Peter
