The anger of political polarization and temptation of secular influence is all around. This brings challenges and opportunities for Christians who navigate living as citizens of two distinctly different kingdoms.
f someone described the life that you are called to live as a Christian as oxymoronic, how would you react? Would you think they were insulting you? Maybe that’s how it sounds initially, but actually an oxymoron is a literary term. An oxymoron takes two seemingly contradictory words and puts them together to describe something or someone. Jumbo shrimp, paid volunteer, and pretty ugly are all examples of oxymorons.
Sermon based on Romans 11:33-36 focused on the greatness of God and the AWE that we should rightly have before him.
The intricacies of God’s creation never cease to amaze.

He stood there with cheeks as red as strawberries, tears streaming down his face, and his nose plastered against the window yelling for “Mommy”.
“The best laid plans of mice and men often go awry.” That pretty much sums up 2020 so far, doesn’t it? Plan A, Plan B, and Plan C haven’t seemed to be enough this year.
Do you know what to pray for? The Holy Spirit is with you! Sermon based on Romans 8:26-27.
If you’ve been following along with our series this summer as we look at Romans 101: One word at a time, today may be a first for many of you. We’ve already looked at words like Atonement, Righteousness, and Reconciliation. We’ve talked about concepts like baptism and sin. Yet, even if you’re new to the church, you’ve likely heard those words before in some setting, even if you didn’t know what they meant. Today, I’m guessing, is different.
