When Faith Becomes Personal

Jesus Is the Way to Freedom | Exodus

God made a way for Israel out of Egypt, through the Red Sea, and toward freedom. That same God still sees, hears, knows, and delivers His people today. In this message from our Bible in a Year series, Pastor Susie explores Exodus, the wilderness, and the promise of freedom in Christ. Whether you need a way out, a way through, or a way to true freedom, Jesus is the way.

When the Red Sea Is in Front of You

When life leaves us caught between a rock and a hard place, how do we keep moving forward? Through the story of the Israelites at the Red Sea in Exodus 14, this message explores what it means to stand firm, trust God’s promises, and take the next step even when we cannot see a way through. Life’s storms are real, but God is with us in the fear, grief, uncertainty, and waiting. Because God is for us and will never leave us, we can develop a faith that says, “Through it all, it is well with my soul.” This sermon is part of Christ Church’s Bible in a Year series.

God Hears the Cry of the Oppressed | Exodus

Exodus reminds us that God hears the cries of people who are suffering and steps in to deliver them. In this message from our Bible in a Year series, we reflect on Moses, Pharaoh, the Israelites, and the deeper meaning of freedom. True freedom is not found in power, control, or earthly security, but in the God who liberates, restores, and calls us into life abundantly.

God Works Through Messy Families | Bible in a Year

The Bible does not give us polished, picture-perfect families. It gives us real people with broken relationships, painful choices, and complicated histories. In this message from Genesis 36–50, we explore the stories of Joseph, Judah, and Tamar and see how God works through imperfect people and difficult family histories. The same God who brought redemption through the broken branches of Jesus’ family tree can also bring goodness, healing, and purpose through ours.

Grace in a Broken Family: Jacob and Esau

Jacob and Esau’s story is filled with sibling rivalry, parental favoritism, deception, resentment, and years of separation. Yet their broken family is not beyond the reach of God’s grace. In this message from our Bible in a Year series, we discover that the hero of Genesis is not Jacob, Esau, Isaac, or Rebekah—it is the faithful God who works through imperfect people and brings reconciliation where vengeance was expected. Based on Genesis 25–33.
