The Blood of the Lamb - Pastor Will Donato

Exodus 11 -12

Pharaoh continues to reject God's call to let His people leave Egypt, despite the many plagues. Finally, God declares that every firstborn in the land was to die. Only those who covered their doorposts with the blood of a sacrificed lamb would be spared. It foreshadowed the blood shed by Jesus to cover the sins of all who believed it by faith. The blood had to be trusted, applied and believed. Salvation has always required faith. The holiness of God demands that sin be dealt with. You cannot save yourself. Trust the Lamb.

Power Over False Gods - Pastor Jeff Powell

Exodus 7 - 10

After Moses confronts Pharaoh with God's command to let His people go, Pharaoh refuses. As a result, God causes various plagues to come upon Egypt. Each time God removes a plague, Pharaoh stubbornly resists, leading to a new plague. We looked at the first 9 plagues. Egypt has many "gods" over various aspects of creation. Each plague that comes proves that Yahweh, the God of Israel, is more powerful than that particular god. Do you have false gods in your life? The one true God can give you power to overcome any you face.

Let My People Go - Pastor Jeff Powell

Exodus 5-6

As we continue the sermon series on the book of Exodus, we find the Israelites struggling with Pharaoh's treatment. Although God promised through Moses and Aaron that he would deliver them from Egypt, they began to murmur and complain. God had to remind them all of His faithfulness through generations. Moses gave excuses as to why he couldn't confront Pharaoh, but he was reminded that God was in control. God starts with grace even though He has every right to start with wrath. God gives grace when we bring our good and our bad to Him. We should operate in His grace.

I AM Who I AM - Pastor Jeff Powell

Exodus 3-4

As we continue our series on the Book of Exodus, entitled "The God Who Saves", we come to the time when God chooses to deliver the Jewish people from bondage in Egypt. We find God confronting Moses in the burning bush and calling him to lead His people from captivity. Moses felt inadequate, but God used him anyway. We can learn from his experience. We may have questions, but God is the answer. We may make excuses, but God makes a way. We are NOT special, but GOD provides amazing opportunities to be a testimony for Him.

A People in Bondage - Pastor Will Donato

Exodus 1 & 2

We start a new series entitled "The God Who Saves". We finished the study of the Gospel of John. Now we look at the book of Exodus, which gives the historical and theological foundation for John's Gospel. The God revealed in Jesus is the covenant-keeping Redeemer who delivers His people. We begin by looking at the bondage that the Israelites experienced in Egypt, and how God worked behind the scenes to bring about their deliverance. If we admit that we are in bondage to sin, we too can experience deliverance. You are more enslaved than you think and more loved than you ever imagined.

He is Risen: Believe and Have Life - Pastor Jeff Powell

John 20-21

As we close out the book of John, we explore the appearances of the risen Jesus to Mary, the disciples, and Thomas. We see the restoration of Peter. The resurrection validates every claim of Jesus and invites all to believe. The risen Christ brings peace, restoration, mission and eternal life. You can't have peace with God until you have a relationship with Jesus. When we have peace with God, we can have peace with ourselves and others.

Behold the Lamb of God - Pastor Jeff Powell

John 17-19

As we study the events leading to the crucifixion of Jesus, we first look at his teaching on unity in His church. Unity is diversity with harmony. Unity must be centered around Christ and His Word. It's based on a mutual relationship with Christ. We then look at the person of Pilate. He knew right from wrong but was more worried about what people would think about him. The fear of man and the need to be a people pleaser will cause you to do things that are not right just because it’s popular.

The Promise of the Holy Spirit - Pastor Jeff Powell

John 14-16

Chapters 12 & 13 deal with the anointing at Bethany, the triumphal entry and the Last Supper. In Chapters 14-16, we have the teachings of Jesus about the Holy Spirit as the helper, comforter and advocate. The Holy Spirit is a person of God, just like the Father and the Son. We see that the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit were all present at Creation, as well as at the baptism of Jesus. The Holy Spirit has a mind, a will, and emotions. He dwells in us when we get saved. He teaches, convicts and guides us, as well as testifies through us.

The Resurrection and the Life - Pastor Jeff Powell

John 11

In raising Lazarus from the dead, Jesus conquered death and foreshadowed His own resurrection. Some lessons from this incident: 1- Jesus was never alarmed or panicked about anything, and was driven by His Father’s will, not emotional desires; 2- God’s timing is not our timing and we don’t always understand His timing; 3- When death happens, Eternal Life continues.

I Am the Good Shepherd - Pastor Jeff Powell

John 10

As we continue our study of the Gospel of John, we find Jesus in a long discourse with religious leaders and others regarding whether he is God. He explained by comparing himself to a good shepherd, something they all understood. He provides guidance and protection and is willing to lay down his life for his sheep. He is the Shepherd-Messiah. The actions and the words of Jesus Christ PROVE that He is God!
