The Return of the King

Several weeks ago, we elected a new President. In January he will take up office, and several weeks after that we will begin the next election cycle! Every four years we do the same thing. Power is fleeting. Control is illusory. Those who hold elected office come and go. But the King never changes. Jesus sits astride the throne of heaven and, in his sovereign love, reigns over the earth. One day he will bring history to its ultimate goal: He will return in glory, judge the living and the dead, and establish his kingdom forever. We will be a part of that. What difference does this make to how we live our lives? What does it look like to live in light of the return of the King? Join us in late November and December to find out.

RECENT SERMONS AND TALKS

Rev. Jason Palacio - September 22, 2024

Sermon: Episode 3 - Hatred

Scripture References: Esther 3:1-15

From Series: "The Hidden Hand of God: The Story of Esther"

There’s nothing in the world more powerful than a good story. Nothing can stop it. No enemy can defeat it. Stories are exciting and suspenseful, they captivate the imagination and inspire the will. The book of Esther is no exception. Except that, the story of Esther doesn’t simply exist to entertain its reader or convey truth or even to recall history. No, Esther is a story that recounts God’s surprising preservation of his promise and his people when they are threatened with annihilation by a superpower. Through the story of Esther we discover the hidden hand of God working out deliverance for his people and showing again and again, that he is faithful and powerful to do what he has promised. Although the Lord is never named or mentioned, as the story unfolds his invisible presence is glaringly obvious. The conclusion of the matter can only be that God is always present even when circumstances say otherwise. For the people of God today, the story of Esther provides a confident reassurance and a divine comfort that our God is always present and never absent, even when it isn’t obvious.
