We will continue our series in 2 Timothy, called Courageous Shepherds. In 2 Timothy 3 we'll listen in as Paul reminds Timothy that he needs to resist the world's pressure to orient himself around his own way of seeing things. We'll explore Paul's life or death charge to cling to God's Word as our North Star - the only true reference point for our l…

We continue our series, Courageous Shepherds by moving into chapter two of 2 Timothy. It is here that Paul will begin to unpack some of the challenges we will all face in our call to be disciples who make disciples.

This week, we'll be starting a four-week series in the book of 2 Timothy. In a time of leadership transition at Emmanuel, we'll see that Paul had a lot to say to Timothy about their own leadership transition. But the first thing Paul established was a strong reminder about the gospel.

We study the last verses of Romans 16 to see Paul’s “watch out,” a few more greetings, and a benediction. It is a wonderful closing to a beautiful letter. I will also have the opportunity to “hand the baton” to Pastor Josh, and we will pray together for him and his family and ministry!

We began our study of Romans on October 9, 2022. This weekend, we begin the last series. We will break Romans 16 into two parts and learn about the leaders and workers in the church in Rome and then read Paul’s farewell and benediction. It is a chapter that is often overlooked because it contains so many names — but there is still much we can learn…

We will return to our series through Romans 12-15, called The Law of Love. We'll close out this series with a look at Paul's call to heat up our value of participating in God's global mission.

We conclude this short series on THE ROAD TO . . . by looking at the Road to Glory where Jesus suddenly appeared to two of His followers on that first Easter. It is an amazing story because of what these two followers had missed — all of their lives — and how Jesus was able to teach them “along the road.”…

Today, we will look at The Road to Suffering.

We step into a Holy Week series called The Road to Salvation. On Palm Sunday, we remember the Triumphal Entry of Jesus into Jerusalem. We will follow Jesus' Road to Kingship through Luke 18 and 19 as He moved through Jericho to Jerusalem while navigating both the confusion and the praise of His followers. We will explore His deep and durable love f…

This week, we wrap up our series, How to Make Peace. We spent two of our three weeks focused on the first step God gives us in Matthew 18:15-17 because it's the most important step. Now it's time to touch on the remaining three steps of peacemaking as we learn to "widen the circle."

We'll continue into our second week of a short series called "How to Make Peace." Matthew 18:15-17 gives us a four-step model for addressing someone who has sinned against us. But step one is so important, we'll be spending another weekend unpacking it together before we move on to the rest of the steps next week.…

We'll begin a short series called "How to Make Peace" and begin working through Matthew 18:15-17 to discover some simple functions that lead to an uncommon peace.

We will take the posture of a younger sibling as we listen to Paul's personal account of his experience as a minister of the gospel. We'll learn about how we can view ourselves as ministers, how we can measure our success, and how we can fuel our passion as followers of Jesus as we live out the gospel.…

We finish the “mini-series” on the weaker brother and learn how important it is to be a true brother or sister in Christ and watch out for one another.

Although it is a common concept throughout the New Testament, it is spelled out in Romans 14 like nowhere else in Scripture. It is the idea that we have freedom in anything as long as we put other believers above our own needs and wants. The world thinks it’s CRAZY! Paul says it’s essential.
