In this final message of Pastor Kevin’s three-part teaching on God’s instructions for building the tabernacle, we see in Exodus 40 the final assembly of the tabernacle nearly one year after the Israelites departed from Egypt. Drawing from related passages in both the Old and New Testaments, Pastor Kevin shows how the tabernacle’s physical layout, as well as the purification ceremonies for preparing…

Sermons on Hebrews
In our final study of the Book of Hebrews this morning, the writer concludes Chapter 12 by contrasting the religious system of the past, which necessitated a separation of the sinner and the holy God, to the new covenant, which provides direct access to this same holy God through the blood of our Mediator Jesus and makes a way to have a…
Audio link includes communion portion of the service We begin Hebrews Chapter 12 this morning with the writer pointing to the faith heroes in Chapter 11, a “great cloud of witnesses,” and exhorting us to “let us lay aside every weight…and… run with endurance the race that is set before us” (Hebrews 12:1). Endurance is the overarching theme of Hebrews – believers are called to…
Today, we conclude our study in Hebrews 11, God’s “Faith Hall of Fame,” examining in some detail the lives of Gideon, Barak, and Jephthah. God records their acts of faith – and their moral failings – in the Book of Judges. They, like all the men and women listed in Hebrews 11, faltered at times, but Pastor Kevin reminds us that God saw and…
Today, we examine further the life and faith of Abraham who, when tested by God, showed that he was willing to sacrifice Isaac, his only heir and the son of promise, on Mount Moriah. Because Abraham obeyed, we have a picture of what God did do when He allowed His Son Jesus to be sacrificed by those Jesus came to save on this very…
On this Mother’s Day 2023, we continue our study in Hebrews 11 looking at the life of Sarah, Abraham’s wife and one of two women listed in God’s “Faith Hall of Fame.” Like us, Sarah’s faith faltered at times, and although she and Abraham resorted to human methods to provide a son for Abraham through her handmaiden Hagar, she believed God’s promise…
May 7, 2023 We continue our study in Hebrews 11, God’s “Hall of Fame,” this week looking in detail at the life of Abram (Abraham) before he obeyed God’s command to leave pagan Ur and travel to a land “that I will show you.” Pastor Dustin shared Josephus’ account of Abram’s life in ancient Ur and how he became to believe in…
We continue our study in Hebrews 11, God’s “Hall of Fame,” looking at the lives of Enoch, whom God translated because he please God; Noah, who obeyed God’s command to build an ark to escape the impending judgment of the flood; and Abraham, who obeyed God’s command to leave pagan Ur and travel to a land “that I will show you.” All three…
April 23, 2023 – Today, we begin our study in Hebrews 11, often called God’s “Faith Hall of Fame.” Building upon the previous (Chapter 10) exhortations to endure in our faith, Chapter 11 goes on to describe the faith that endures. It is faith in Jesus’ sacrifice for sin, personally appropriated, which comes by hearing and humbly responding to God’s gospel of peace. Our faith is…
April 16, 2023 Returning to our study of Hebrews this week, Pastor Kevin reminds us that the overarching message of this book for its original audience, Jews living after the Resurrection but before the destruction of the Temple in A.D. 70, is: Abandon the Old Testament system of human priests and animal sacrifices because Jesus was our once-and-for-all sacrifice for sin and…
