The Great Commission | Steve Morrison | Matthew 28:16-20

The Vanity of Pleasure | Owen Rowell | Ecclesiastes 2:1-11...

The Preacher in Ecclesiastes 2:1-11 tries every pleasure under the sun but finds that nothing satisfies him. We find that pleasures are fleeting, easily one upped and never certain, ultimately always failing to bring lasting satisfaction. We'll look at what we are therefore to do with the pleasures of the world and how viewing them as gifts from God shifts how we are to enjoy them and points to Jesus as the true source of satisfaction

Is Wisdom Enough? | Steve Morrison | Ecclesiastes 1:12-18...

We live in an age of information and artificial intelligence. Answers are only a click away, experts are everywhere, and we're constantly told that the right knowledge can solve our problems and improve our lives. But what if wisdom can't deliver everything it promises? In Ecclesiastes, the Preacher sets out to understand life through wisdom. He quickly discovers that while wisdom is better than folly, it cannot explain every mystery, heal every sorrow, or overcome life's greatest problem: death. In fact, sometimes seeing the world more clearly only deepens our grief. This week we'll explore both the value and the limits of human wisdom and discover why our deepest need is not simply more information, but the wisdom that comes from God.

What Do We Gain? | Edward | Ecclesiastes 1:4-11

Qohelet continues his search for meaning by asking a confronting question: "What does man gain by all the toil at which he toils under the sun?" (Ecclesiastes 1:3). In verses 4-11, he observes the world around him. Generations come and go, yet the earth remains. The sun rises and sets, the wind blows in endless circuits, and rivers flow continually into the sea without ever filling it. Nature moves in repeating cycles, and human life often feels much the same. Despite our efforts to achieve, build, accumulate, and leave a legacy, time marches on and even our memories fade. Qohelet is not denying that work, achievement, or life itself have value; rather, he is exposing the limits of what they can ultimately provide. If we seek lasting gain, significance, or permanence solely in the things of this world, we will be disappointed. The passage invites us to consider where true and lasting gain can be found.

Buying a Building? | Steve Morrison | 1 Chronicles 29:1-9

As preparations are made for the building of the temple, David calls the people of God not simply to give, but to consecrate themselves to the Lord. In verse 5, the invitation comes: “Who then is willing to consecrate himself today to the Lord?” Giving becomes an act of worship, surrender, and wholehearted devotion. And in verse 9, the people respond with joy, generosity, and willing hearts. As King’s Church looks ahead with faith toward one day purchasing a building of our own, this passage encourages us to offer ourselves freely to God - trusting Him, worshipping Him, and participating together in what He is building among us.

Sing among the Nations | Wolfgang Vondey | Psalm 96:1-10

Pslam 96 issues a call to sing among the nations and to declare the glory of God in all the earth. This message explores the problem of singing among the nations by reading the invitation in light of the confusion of languages at Babel and how we can resolve the problem. This reading of the text begins with the commentary on the Psalm by Augustine and then moves to the interpretation of Babel in the New Testament before exploring the idea of singing in its relationship to the Spirit of God.
