Bering Salt and Light – Matthew 5:13-16
Pastor Rick Lancaster continues a series in the gospel of Matthew: The Savior-King and His Kingdom. Jesus uses two similitudes to describe a Christ-follower’s role in this decaying and dark world. These are the effects a believer living the beatitudes will manifest to the world around us. The world is in a state of decay and is becoming increasingly dark. It up to Christ-followers to be what Christ says they are.
Matthew’s gospel serves as a bridge between the Old and New Testaments. Matthew seeks to prove to the Jews that Jesus is the long-awaited Messiah. For those of us who are not Jews, Matthew helps us to see our Savior-King more clearly and through his gospel learn to live well in Christ’s kingdom today.

Exodus: Freed to Worship – A verse-by-verse study of Exodus – starting at Exodus 5:1
Pastor Rick Lancaster begins a verse-by-verse study of the book of Exodus. The second book of the Bible describes many of the miraculous things God did to bring His Chosen People out of bondage and to the Promised Land. Along the way He revealed Himself to the Israelites and taught them how to worship Him. As New Testament believers we don’t follow the same pattern of worship as God instructed the Jews to worship Him, but through their system we learn a great deal about the God we worship.

Kingdom Character – Persecuted! Matthew 5:10-12
Pastor Rick Lancaster continues a series in the gospel of Matthew: The Savior-King and His Kingdom. One of the paradoxes of Christianity is found in today’s message – there is a blessing to be found in persecution. Rick explains why persecution may come into the life of a believer and how we should respond to it.
Matthew’s gospel serves as a bridge between the Old and New Testaments. Matthew seeks to prove to the Jews that Jesus is the long-awaited Messiah. For those of us who are not Jews, Matthew helps us to see our Savior-King more clearly and through his gospel learn to live well in Christ’s kingdom today.

Kingdom Character – Peacemakers! Matthew 5:9
Pastor Rick Lancaster continues a series in the gospel of Matthew: The Savior-King and His Kingdom. The world sorely needs peace. Conflict, division, anger, and hate seems to be growing every day. Many in the world are calling for peace, but usually for peace without God. God desires peace in the world. That is why He sent Jesus. As believers we are called to be involved in god’s plan for peace – we are called to be peacemakers.

Kingdom Character – Pure in Heart! Matthew 5:8
Pastor Rick Lancaster continues a series in the gospel of Matthew: The Savior-King and His Kingdom. The Bible teaches that no one has ever seen God. But then the sixth beatitudes promises that those who are pure in heart shall see God. Rick shares there is a way to see God better every day and that it starts in the heart.

Hope in the Darkness! Matthew 27:1-66
Pastor Rick Lancaster teaches a topical message for Good Friday. Where do we find hope when the world gets dark and overwhelming. It got very dark on the day Jesus died for the sins of the world. Where were His disciples to look for hope as they waited for the dark night of the soul to end?

Kingdom Character – Those Who Mourn! Matthew 5:4
Pastor Rick Lancaster continues a series in the gospel of Matthew: The Savior-King and His Kingdom. The Sermon on the Mount has been one of the most influential writings in human history. It opens with the Beatitudes – proverb-like statements that are rich with spiritual teaching. Rick opens the second of the beatitudes that addresses those who mourn. God certainly does comfort us when we mourn the loss of a loved one, but this beatitude goes much deeper than that. It is a key character trait of someone living in God’s Kingdom.
Matthew’s gospel serves as a bridge between the Old and New Testaments. Matthew seeks to prove to the Jews that Jesus is the long-awaited Messiah.

Kingdom Character – Meek! Matthew 5:5
Pastor Rick Lancaster continues a series in the gospel of Matthew: The Savior-King and His Kingdom. The world views meekness as weakness. Jesus, and the Bible, teach the exact opposite. Thos who are meek are those who know God’s approval and blessing. Rick explores this beatitude and shares ways we can grow in meekness and know much of God’s blessing.
Matthew’s gospel serves as a bridge between the Old and New Testaments. Matthew seeks to prove to the Jews that Jesus is the long-awaited Messiah. For those of us who are not Jews, Matthew helps us to see our Savior-King more clearly and through his gospel learn to live well in Christ’s kingdom today.
