2025-06-2335 minMatthew EverhardPatience in Suffering. [Sermon]. Romans 8:18-25.In this sermon, Paul instructs the Roman Christians on how to endure suffering. There are suffering people everywhere. If our message is not good news to suffering people, it is no gospel at all. Christ came as a suffering servant to save the suffering from their misery. Christianity does not try to ignore or blame-shift suffering, but regards it head-on. The Apostle Paul teaches believers that our suffering in this present time is not worth comparing to the eternal glory to be revealed in God's saints.

Mark 8:31-38 [Sermon]In this sermon on Resurrection Sunday, we look to a text that might not ordinarily be associated with Easter, Mark 8:31-38. This text might be thought of more naturally with Good Friday, due to its association with suffering. But as we will see, this is a clear prediction and call to consider the Resurrection of Jesus from the dead as our only hope for salvation from sin.

[Sermon].In this sermon, we take a break from our series in Romans to examine an important doctrine of the faith: the Kingship of Christ. Christ is the Mediatorial King who rules over all things, including all nations, angels, demons, human beings, the church, and our individual lives. While it is good and right to emphasize the doctrine of Christ as Savior, it is also proper to put it in context of His kingship as well.

2025-03-1738 minMatthew EverhardRomans 5:6-11. [Sermon]. Christ Died for Sinners.In this sermon, we continue our series in the book of Romans. Today we come to a critical text that explores the power of the death of Christ on the cross. God demonstrates or proves His love for us here at the cross of Calvary. We look at Christ's intent in His death, the efficacious nature of the atonement, and its reconciling power in bringing us into a state of grace and forgiveness with God.

2025-03-0726 minMatthew EverhardRomans 5:1-5. [Sermon]. "Peace with God."In this sermon, we press on in our series on the book of Romans. After describing our depraved condition in chapters 1-2 and articulating the power of the Gospel in chapters 3-4, Paul now begins to unfold the incredible blessings of being in Christ, saved by justification through faith in Christ. Romans 5:1-5 is an incredible text which extols the comforts and blessings of being in a state of grace.
2025-03-0332 minMatthew EverhardRomans 4:1-12 [Sermon]. Justification Defined and Experienced.In this sermon, we move into the fourth chapter of our exposition of Romans.

2025-02-1737 minMatthew EverhardThe Last Covenanter Martyr: James RenwickIn this episode, I take a look at the last Covenanter martyr, a young man by the name of James Renwick. He was one of the Scottish Presbyterians who were horribly persecuted during the "Killing Times" in Scotland, persecuted for holding illegal worship services in the fields called conventicles. Renwick was sent away to be educated and then came back to Scotland to lead the resistance party against prelacy (rule of the church by bishops) and Erastianism (rule of the church by Kings). Eventually, Renwick was killed by being hanged on the gallows at the Grassmarket in Edinborough.

2025-02-0936 minMatthew EverhardRomans 3:21-26. [Sermon]. "Propitiation"In this sermon, we continue our series in Romans. Today, we enter what I believe is one of the most important passages in all of Romans, much less the whole Bible. Here Paul introduces concepts such as faith, grace, justification, and notably touches on the concept of "propitiation." Here we will see how Jesus's death on the cross propitiates the wrath of God.

2025-01-2850 minMatthew EverhardRomans 3:1-8. [Sermon]. "The Oracles of God."Today, we continue our expository sermon series through the book of Romans. Our text is Romans 3:1-8. Here, the Apostle Paul anticipates several objections that his readers may be inferring. Like a good rhetorician, Paul offers his "refutatio," that is, his answers to questions and objections that he believers his readers may be asking, particularly, about the advantages of being Jewish; of the problem of hypocrisy; and a slanderous charge of license to sin.
2025-01-1939 minMatthew EverhardRomans 2:17-29. [Sermon]. A Matter of the Heart.After a brief time off from Romans over the holidays, we now pick up our expository series again in Romans 2:17-29.
