Rivers of Water (1st Commandment) — Law Homily

What grieves us most? The First Commandment teaches us not only to reject false gods, but to be sorrowful when the true God is dishonored. This homily calls us to name our rival gods, repent, and rejoice that Christ has perfectly kept this command for His people. "Thou shalt have no other gods before me." —Exodus 20:3 Title: Rivers of Water Series: Law Homilies Preacher: Derrick Taylor Date: June 28, 2026 For more information about Christ the King Reformed Church please visit our website: https://ctkreformed.com

Accusing God's Providences (10th Commandment) — Law Homily

The 10th commandment exposes sin at the root: not just what we do, but what we want. Coveting is discontent that quietly accuses God’s providence—and the opposite of coveting isn’t poverty, but gratitude. Christ frees us by cleansing the heart and giving new desires. "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's." — Exodus 20:17 Title: Accusing God's Providences Series: Law Homilies Preacher: Derrick Taylor Date: June 21, 2026 For more information about Christ the King Reformed Church please visit our website: https://ctkreformed.com

Her Perfect Work (James 1:2–8) — Wisdom for Pilgrims

James doesn’t command a feeling—he commands a reckoning: count it all joy when trials come, because God is refining faith into endurance. When you lack wisdom, ask God—who gives generously and without reproach—but ask in faith, not double-mindedness. The aim is maturity: “perfect and entire, wanting nothing.” Title: Her Perfect Work Series: Wisdom for Pilgrims (The General Epistle of James) Main Passage: James 1:2–8 Preacher: Derrick Taylor Date: June 21, 2026 For more information about Christ the King Reformed Church please visit our website: https://ctkreformed.com

The Epistle of Straw (James 1:1) — Wisdom for Pilgrims

James opens his letter with a simple greeting—but it’s a word for scattered saints in every age. This Lord’s Day we began a new series in James by looking at James 1:1: a servant of God, writing to the twelve tribes scattered abroad. If you feel displaced, pressured, or disoriented, take heart: disorientation is not abandonment. Christ is Lord of the exile, Lord of the roads His people walk, and He calls us not only to hear the Word—but to do it.
