God Bless America! . . . ? - Ps 33:10-19

God Bless America! . . . ? - Ps 33:10-19

This week we will return to Psalm 33, to a passage that deserves more thought, on our country's 250th birthday. This will be another of what we call an "Artillery Sermon." The name comes from Scottish artillery companies, when they chose new officers. Because officers lead men into battle, it was an important decision, so they would ask a local pastor to preach a sermon before voting. Then "Artillery Sermon" came to describe any time a pastor spoke on important national matters. And there is nothing more important than considering just what is the source of our nation's blessing.

A Perfect God Blesses Very Imperfect People Who Fear Him - Ps 34

This week we consider one of my own favorite Psalms - I like it so much we plastered part of it on our wall. But to get the most out of it, I encourage you to read 1 Samuel 20:1-22:2. This historical background is crucial to understanding this beloved Psalm, and this blessed doctrine: that because God is perfect, He's not a perfectionist. But He is good - really, really good, to those who fear Him. Listen to this episode from Pastor Jed’s sermon on June 28th, 2026 to learn more.

The Steadfast Love of the Lord - Bet Your Life on It - Ps 33

This week we move on to Psalm 33, which glorifies the steadfast love of God. The Hebrew word for this is "hesed," and it is perhaps the most important Hebrew word, except for the name of God. It is the ground of our hope, the fuel for our joy, and the rock upon which we can courageously build a life. And it was proven to use most vividly at Calvary.

The Secret to Effective Confession - Ps 32

Confession is a very misunderstood, yet important tool for people to use when trying to fellowship with God. It is misunderstood because it is usually driven by the culture’s agenda and not the biblical agenda. And it is important because without it we perish. In Psalm 32, David takes us through a master class on the proper way to confess/ repent our sin. He certainly understands the need for it. As both a murder and adultery, his personal experience carves out a clear and effective path for us to follow. Listen to this episode from Pastor Mike’s sermon on June 14th, 2026 to learn more.

Taking Refuge in God's Steadfast Love - Ps 31

This week we begin our summer sermon series in the Psalms, starting with Psalm 31. This Psalm is important not only because our Lord quoted it with his final breaths on the cross, but also because with that he signaled for us how we ought to live as well. This Psalm holds the key to living with courageous strength in the face of life's mini toils and snares. Listen to this episode from Pastor Jed’s sermon on June 7th, 2026 to learn more.
