Hearing Wisdom

Following the Father

In the next addition to our "Ears to Hear" sermon series, Pastor Nathan explores John 5, where Jesus shows us how to follow the Father's lead. This following can only happen when we are rooted in Phiilia—an everyday friendship with God characterized by intentionality rather than intensity. To follow the Father’s lead, we adopt Jesus' blueprint of Posture, Proximity, and Practices.  Christ's example helps us learn to recognize the Father’s voice and become agents of life, freedom, and healing in our local communities.   Watch full video of this sermon on our YouTube channel [https://youtu.be/DH6CvBFZTT0] Visit our website [https://www.eastendfellowship.org/]Sign Up for our Newsletter [https://www.eastendfellowship.org/weekly-newsletter]Follow us on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/eastendfellowship/?hl=en] Follow us on Facebook [https://www.facebook.com/EEFRVA/]

Hearing Wisdom

Pastor Nathan continues our current series by exploring the first half of Proverbs 8, where wisdom is vividly personified as a woman calling out to all of humankind from the city gates. He emphasizes that pursuing wisdom is a relational lifestyle grounded in a connection with God, rather than a rigid formula or a simple mental achievement.   Jesus is the ultimate wisdom of God, and true discernment requires turning our hearts and affections toward Him.  Watch full video of this sermon on our YouTube channel [https://youtu.be/FVwddDImp8w] Visit our website [https://www.eastendfellowship.org/]Sign Up for our Newsletter [https://www.eastendfellowship.org/weekly-newsletter]Follow us on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/eastendfellowship/?hl=en] Follow us on Facebook [https://www.facebook.com/EEFRVA/]

The Creatively Destructive Voice of God

Continuing in the sermon series "Ears to Hear,"  Pastor Nathan explores the striking imagery of Psalm 29. He challenges us to move beyond a downsized and domesticated view of God, who only offers compassion without conviction.  Nathan emphasizes that truly hearing God requires a "posture of openness" to however He chooses to show up, even when His voice sounds like thunder and shakes the conceptual boxes we place Him in.

Do We Know the Author?

Continuing in our current series,  Rob Surratt addresses the human tendency to forget divine instructions and return to old, comfortable behaviors despite past growth. Drawing from Deuteronomy 11, he emphasizes the biblical command to physically and mentally bind God's words to one's life as a constant reminder of faith. Encouraging us to take a good, long look at the difference between hearing and listening.
