The Good Samaritan Isn’t About Being Nice (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Jesus tells the parable of the Good Samaritan in response to a man who wanted to “justify himself.” But what if we’ve misunderstood the point of the parable? The Good Samaritan isn’t merely a story about being nice and helpful. It is a story about mercy—and ultimately about Christ. We are sinners who have been spiritually robbed, beaten, and left for dead. Yet Christ, the true Good Samaritan, does not pass us by. He comes to us, binds our wounds, covers us with His righteousness, and brings us i
Christ Jesus Has Done All Things Well (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We are surrounded by a world disordered by sin—and we are part of the problem. We cannot fix ourselves, and even Christ’s ministers are insufficient in themselves. But Jesus Christ is sufficient. He has done all things well. In Mark 7:37, the people marvel that Jesus makes the deaf hear and the mute speak. This miracle points beyond physical healing to the greater work Christ does for every sinner: opening our ears to His Word, loosening our tongues to confess His truth, and delivering the forgi
You Are Justified (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What do you have to boast about before God? The short answer: nothing. In the parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector, Jesus gives us a picture of two men standing before God. One boasts about his righteousness. The other can only confess, “God, be merciful to me, a sinner.” And Jesus says that the tax collector—not the man boasting about his works—went home justified. This sermon explores Ephesians 2:1–9 and Luke 18, reminding us that salvation is not our achievement. We were dead in sin,
Work Hard, Play Hard — But What About Jesus? | The One Thing Needful (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The world tells us to “work hard, play hard.” But what happens when work, money, recreation, and the pursuit of pleasure leave no room for Christ? On the Tenth Sunday after Trinity, Rev. Tyrel Bramwell examines Jesus’ weeping over Jerusalem, Jeremiah’s warning against spiritual complacency, and the danger of being a Christian in name only. The Christian life is not merely about claiming the name of Christ while living according to the world. We need the one thing needful: Jesus Christ crucified
The Sons of This Age vs. the Sons of Light | Luke 16:8 Explained (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Why does Jesus appear to praise an unrighteous steward in Luke 16? In this sermon for the Ninth Sunday after Trinity, Rev. Tyrel Bramwell looks at one of Christ's most difficult parables, getting into the Greek of Luke 16:8. Far from commending unrighteousness, Jesus exposes the single-minded devotion "the sons of this age" have to their unrighteousness and calls His people to unwavering faithfulness... A call that can only be accomplished by Jesus Himself. This sermon explores what it means to
