Table for Two

So often our fears and worries are rooted in the what-ifs: What if I lose my job? What if no one likes me? What if I’m a bad parent and I’ve ruined my kids? And as we get overwhelmed by these what-ifs, the Shepherd sets a table for us amid the chaos. Why? What should we do about it?

The Shepherd's Pace

David Powlison created the tongue-in-cheek “Anti-Psalm 23,” which begins, “I’m on my own. No one looks out for me or protects me. I experience a continual sense of need. Nothing’s quite right” But there is something so much better available to us, if we would only go at the Shepherd's pace. In the second sermon of our series on the famous Psalm 23 we hear about what God has to say about how we use our time.

The Shepherd Doesn't Want Your Leftovers

In the first sermon of our series on the famous Psalm 23 we hear about how God actively cares for us, leading, restoring, and comforting us rather than expecting us to earn His favor through our efforts. God's grace is not something we can achieve or deserve; it is freely offered and overflowing for everyone, even those who feel unforgivable.

Don't Do Life In Your Own Strength

We have the tendency to underestimate life's challenges. Reading from Ephesians we see that we are called to be light, imitating God, and being filled with the Holy Spirit. By transforming our being, imitating God, and staying connected to the Holy Spirit, we can effectively combat life's battles and find joy.
