    Covenantal Discipleship - Part Five
    Jul 23 2024
    In this final episode of our covenant series we are wrapping up in Revelation, and taking a look at the encouragment found there to hold fast to our witness while also talking about what could change if the church took her role of living in covenant seriously. As new covenant people, we are still very much at risk to fall into idolatry and waywardness. This is where John’s encouragement in Revelation offers the covenant community hope. In our own strength we will always fall short, but in Christ we are made whole. Being unified with Christ requires covenantal obedience that is marked by reverence for the Lord. Holiness requires a high degree of consecration; consecration spurred on by love for God and a healthy, necessary, fear of Him, all while staying tethered to Jesus as our covenant mediator and king.

  • Covenantal Discipleship - Part Four

    Covenantal Discipleship - Part Four
    Jul 16 2024
    Today we're looking at new covenant, first through the lens of the major prophets, and then into the New Testament. What sets the new covenant apart from the old is Christ as the sacrifice, becoming the perfect mediator between us and God, and as such, ushering in the Spirit of God to help empower a covenant people to live a transformed life, which begins in the heart. The overarching theme througout this episode, is our own responsbility to be an active participant in covenant, which requires examining our own hearts and getting serious about rooting out anything that is in direct opposition to the character of God.

  • Covenantal Discipleship - Part Three

    Covenantal Discipleship - Part Three
    Jul 9 2024
    In this episode we are looking at what scholars call the pinnacle of the Old Testament. The Sinai Covenant (Mosaic Covenant). This event is the moment when everything in regards to Old Testament Covenant is clarified and consecrated. The whole purpose of this specific covenant is “the establishment of a special nation through whom Yahweh can make himself known to all the families of the earth.” Set apart equals consecrated, and we're going to chat about what it means for us to live consecrated. Because when we grasp the importance of consecration for us as new covenant believers, it helps solidify the importance of why this matters so much for God's image bearers.

    Covenantal Discipleship - Part Two
    Jul 2 2024
    Today we are jumping right back into our series on covenant. Although covenant is often understood to be a list of laws and rules, which are often seen as legalistic and binding, the covenant between God and humanity differs. Through close analysis of biblical covenants, we will see that the heart of divine covenant has always been about walking in relationship with God, knowing His character, and choosing to step into our role as His ambassadors to properly reflect His character to the ends of the earth.

  • Covenantal Discipleship - Part One

    Covenantal Discipleship - Part One
    Jun 25 2024
    In this series we are setting out to understand Divine covenant - from Genesis to Revelation. We will encounter an unchanging God, who from the very beginning desired relationship with His created family, and proved time and time again that He would pursue them, fight for them and remain faithful to covenant - even the consequences of broken covenant - for the sake of redeeming all who were lost. My hope is - that by the end of this series, we will walk away with a fresh understanding of what it means to walk as new covenant people, we would have a new love for getting into scripture and our awe and wonder and holy fear of our unchanging God would be rightfully placed back where it belongs. That we would understand our responsibility in this new covenant and the cost it entails - yet be fully convinced that the cost is worth it. Sources used for this series: *Alexander, T.

    Protection and Provision
    Jan 30 2024

    We’re going deep today and taking a look at a major theme that's found in the book of Revelation. This is one of the overarching messages that Revelation holds for us and it's important to understand because it speaks to what our role is as faithful followers of Jesus. And it holds very real encouragement for us in the midst of earthly struggle, because it it highlights Gods continual protection and provision over us as we remain faithful to hold fast to our witness.  There is so much HOPE and promise tucked in the pages of this book. Join me as we dive in.
