Divine Savior Church-SiennaShine Like Stars | Shine Like Stars | Pastor Kevin BoushekHave you ever felt like you really didn’t fit in or belong in the place you are? Cheering for the wrong team in the wrong stadium? All dressed up while everyone else is casual? Excited about something no one else is? We live in a post-Christian world. The viewpoints prevalent in this world are a world apart from the viewpoint God gives us in His Word. That means, in this world, we stick out. Stand out. Shine like stars in a very dark sky. As we hold onto God’s Word and hold it out for other people to s...2025-05-1823 min
Divine Savior Church-SiennaOne For All | RansomOne For All | Ransom | Pastor Kevin BoushekWe were stuck in a mess we couldn’t escape—trapped by fear of the cost, unwilling to pay it, and unable to find the way out. Deep down, we thought we could handle it on our own, but the truth? We couldn’t. Only one could—and He already did. Jesus stepped in, paying the price we couldn’t afford, wouldn’t choose, and didn’t even realize we needed. One Savior, one sacrifice, one ransom—for everyone who walks the earth. That changes everything.Support the sh...2025-03-0919 min
Divine Savior Church-SiennaWe Take God's Truth Seriously | Get Used to DifferentWhen the Thessalonians first heard the gospel, they realized it was wonderfully different than any message they’d ever heard before. That’s why they received it as they did—not as the words of mere human beings, but as God’s Word—life changing and worth holding onto for dear life. We also want to take all of God's truth seriously because even in our modern world it's the Word of God that still makes all the difference.Support the show~ Changing lives with Jesus!

Divine Savior Church-SiennaWe Thrive on More Joy Than Guilt | Get Used to DifferentThe Thessalonians turned away from the idols they used to serve. Why? The power of the gospel! Idols are demanding. But Jesus is different! Unlike idols, Jesus is the only living God who, even when you fail him, will not punish you and doesn’t demand more from you. He is the only Lord who even when you fall short, forgives you freely by his grace. Live for him and you will never be let down in the end. The pure gospel of Jesus is why we can also live with more joy than guilt just like the Thessalonians....2021-11-0124 min
Divine Savior Church-SiennaPutting the Gospel on Video | Battle For Our HeartsThere are false gods battling for the place of honor in our lives. We can’t live the life God wants us to live when we are pursuing something else. Behind the sins we struggle with, the discouragement we deal with, and the lack of purpose we live with, are false gods that are winning the battle for our hearts. They are vying for our attention. But so is our gracious God, through his Word. Through the Holy Spirit. Which voice are we going to listen to? Which volume are we going to turn up? Which will get our at...2021-10-2723 min
Divine Savior Church-SiennaThe Danger of Us and Them |The last couple years showed us more than ever how divided we are as a people. We are divided along racial lines, political lines, gender lines, religious lines, and economic lines. It is too easy for us to think in terms of “us and them.” We judge others on this basis, and we feel superior. We tend to emphasize the weaknesses of those on “their” side and minimize the weaknesses of those on “our” side. We spend lots of time at the “altar of pride” and feel superior in terms of morality, religion, race, and ethnicity. These false gods have a very divi...2021-10-1824 min
Divine Savior Church-SiennaThey Must Be Doing Something Right“They must be doing something right!” Have you ever thought or muttered that when someone roared past you in their sports car or fancy boat? Or while you were watching a professional sports contest or singing contest? Or browsing the blog or YouTube channel of a successful influencer? We spend lots of time at the “altar of influence” worshiping gods of people, celebrities, influencers, and culture. Wishing we could be more like them. Wishing we could have what they have. These false gods have incredible influence in our world. It can be hard not to get carried away with them, an...2021-10-1125 min
Divine Savior Church-SiennaWould You Do Anything For Love? | Battle For Our HeartsWould you do anything for love? “Falling in love” with another person often keeps us from thinking straight. It takes a high place of importance. It isn’t hard for that kind of infatuation to take a place higher in our hearts than it should. We spend lots of time at the “altar of love” worshiping gods of romance, family, and our own ego. These things are actually good gifts and blessings from God, but can step out of order in our hearts and become more important to us than the love we have for the God who made and redeem...2021-10-0426 min
Divine Savior Church-SiennaLife to the Full | Battle for Our HeartsIt is easy in this world to think that the “best life” or “life to the full” means binging on all the things that bring us temporary pleasure. Didn’t the year of shut-down show us how powerfully addicting binging on Netflix, snack foods, and alcohol can be? We were made to worship God, but we often end up spending lots of time at the “altar of pleasure” worshiping gods of food, sex, and entertainment. These false gods, which wield a very powerful mental, physical, and emotional lure, keep us from the real relationship with Jesus that we need, when they beco...2021-09-2724 min
Divine Savior Church-SiennaKing of the Hill | Battle for Our HeartsWe live in a world where everyone wants to be “King of the hill,” right? Climb the ladder. Be on top. Be the highest paid whatever we are. We were made to worship God, but we often end up spending lots of time at the “altar of power” worshiping gods of success, money, and achievement. These false gods, which are so attractive to our world, keep us from the real relationship with Jesus that we need. We will look at God’s Word today to see how it can defeat these idols from getting God’s place in our hearts.2021-09-2025 min

Divine Savior Church-SiennaAscended Into HeavenWe believe Jesus went to heaven after His resurrection. He rules and reigns over all things with the Father and the Holy Spirit.Are we there yet? As Christians we certainly have a longing for heaven. We long for the complete removal of sin from our life and the lives of those around us - its consequences and its nature. Perhaps because we long and trust, we also grow impatient with God's timetable. The creed gives us the symmetry we need to both long for heaven, and accept God's work and wisdom in our present circumstances. 2021-07-2627 min

While those celebrations and embellishments of the season are enjoyable and serve a good purpose, as we look at the miracle of Christ's birth apart from them we are better able to witness the wonder and awe of Jesus' incarnation.

Divine Savior Church-SiennaJesus Christ, His Only Son, Our Lord | I BelieveWe believe Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God, and He is both fully God and fully human. This confession of the person of Jesus Christ is so important because it wages war on hell itself. It is the assault against Satan, his temptations, the accusations he hurls at us, and the very prison to which he would enslave us. All because Jesus is the Christ, the son of the living God. So we combat the notions of materialism - I don't need stuff, I need Jesus. We combat the notions of individualism because Jesus has b...2021-06-2826 min

Divine Savior Church-SiennaI Believe | I Believe"I believe" may seem to carry a connotation of personal truth in a very relative world. Yet, when we say, "I believe" as Christians there is a far stronger, far deeper connotation. We profess our confidence of the truths of the Bible. We take our stand on these words from our lips, because of the conviction of our very hearts and souls. What is The Apostles Creed? Who wrote it? When did it show up? We'll look at the history behind the creed and why its still relevant for us today. The creed provides symmetry and clarity, a...2021-06-1425 min
