Sermon from Pastor Tre:

I've got six more words for you,"If You are willing, You can..." (Lk. 5:12)Those six words speak to the struggle we all have with trusting in God's power and understanding God's plans. Honestly, sometimes God's ways just don't make sense, and thankfully His will doesn't depend on my understanding. However, if we will trust Him , we'll see a miracle we never imagined possible.

Six of the most transformative words you can ever speak are, "...nevertheless at Your word I will..." (Lk. 5:5)

Sometimes God's ways just don't make sense, but if we will trust Him anyways, our lives will be changed forever.

"...the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world. - 1 John 4:4 In this sermon we get to follow Jesus from Nazareth to Capernaum where He shows Himself mighty to save! -Sermon from Pastor Tre

Pastor Mike has prepared a powerful message to share with us from God's Word.

"Good morning BCC!This morning, we are jumping back into our study of Luke’s Gospel. Today we are in chapter four - The Temptation of Jesus.The writer of Hebrews reminds us,Hebrews 4:15–16 NKJV15 For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin.16 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.Let’s begin by reading our scripture for today. Open your Bibles to Luke chapter four. I’ll begin at verse one."

Famed Jewish historian, Josephus, called Jesus

a wise man, if it be lawful to call him a man.”[1]

Napoleon Bonaparte, French general and statesman during the French Revolutionary war, boldly declared,

“I know men, and I tell you that Jesus Christ is not a man.”[2]

One of the great distinctives of the Christian faith is the teaching that the Creator of all things willingly clothed Himself in the frailty of human flesh. This doctrine is unique to Christianity. While other traditions may speak of prophets or inspired men, only Christianity proclaims that God Himself became fully human in Jesus Christ.

At Christmas—when His humanity should be the focal point of our celebration—we often rush to emphasize His divinity over His humanity. Yet it is vital that we pause at the manger and the cross before hastening to the throne room, for it is in His humanity that He shares our weakness, bears our suffering, and redeems our lives.

Grab your Bibles and go with me to Hebrews 2:14-18. I’ll get us started at verse fourteen.

Last Sunday I shared with you the first of the four titles for the Messiah that we read about in Isaiah 9:6: Wonderful Counselor. I'm so excited to share with you the last of the four titles given to Jesus: the Prince of Peace.

-Sermon from Pastor Mike

Isaiah was a prolific prophet in perilous times. He wrote 66 chapters that are filled with judgment, justice, love, and redemption. Throughout all 66 chapters, through the hard times as well as the seasons of peace and prosperity, there is a thread of hope in Isaiah. Some of the most vivid and awe-inspiring words of hope that have ever been written are found in the pages of Isaiah. His brilliant and encouraging words are set against a backdrop of politically and spiritually unsettling and disastrous times. God moved upon Isaiah’s heart and he was able to write about God’s promises because he had his mind and heart fixed upon the sovereignty of Almighty God rather than the situations that the nation and the people found themselves enduring. It would pay us great dividends to study Isaiah through and through, but for today we will fix our gaze upon one title that Isaiah gave to the One who would come one day.
