Sermon: At the Table We Remember Christ's Sacrifice

Sermon: At the Table We Remember Christ's Sacrifice

Each year, generation after generation of God's people would celebrate the Passover, remembering what God had done in freeing his people from Egypt. On the night before his death, Jesus and his disciples gathered and celebrated the Passover meal, but this time the focus would shift from the death of the Lamb to the death of Jesus. In fact, the Apostle Paul would later write, "Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed.” This Sunday, we'll see that: at the table, we remember Christ's sacrifice

Sermon: At the Table We Proclaim Christ's Death

1 Corinthians 11.26 While instructing the Corinthian church on the Lord’s Supper, the Apostle Paul wrote, “For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.” (1 Corinthians 11:26 ESV). It is not too difficult to read that and then shake our heads up and down, acknowledging that we understand what Paul is saying. _Yes, Paul, I get it._ But do we? This Sunday, we’ll examine the reality that at the Table, we proclaim Christ’s death

Update: Conversation with our Church Planting Partners in Inverness Scotland

We loved getting time with Keith and Lizzie Nicolson from Merkinch & South Kessock Free Church in Scotland and hearing about how God is working in that part of the UK!

Sermon: At the Table We Renew Covenant

Each week at Seven Mile Road, just after the Word is preached, we partake in the Lord’s Supper, where Jesus invites sinners to share a meal with him. How could this be? Eating that tiny bit of bread and drinking wine or juice from that tiny cup may seem minute and momentary but it’s actually magnificent! Over the next few weeks, we’ll dive into this grace and mature our understanding of what happens at the table.  This week, we will examine how at the table we renew covenant with Christ.

Sermon: Deacons Lead by Serving

Have you ever wondered what a Deacon is? Or what Jesus calls deacons to be and do for him? Maybe you’ve even wondered what benefit it is for the church to have faithful deacons? Over the last two weeks, we’ve looked at how Jesus is the greatest servant and how he calls elders to serve by leading his church. This week, we will look at how Deacons lead by serving. In Acts 6, we’ll see how a conflict arose in the church and how those who led the church by serving allowed the apostles to continue preaching the Word and praying ... and how that led to growing faith and a growing church.
