Starting with this message, we are walking through many of the Minor Prophets in chronological order. Each week, we'll cover an entire book. This week is Amos. Amos is a shepherd from the southern kingdom of Judah whom God commissions to call the northern kingdom of Israel to repentance. Just like Amos, we are commissioned with a word from the Lord for people today. Listen as we hear Amos's message, apply it to ourselves, and find grace in Jesus Christ.

God has given elders and deacons to the church, not to rule tyrannically, but to serve lovingly. In this sermon, we'll see that it is important that we have a plurality of elders, that elders and deacons function biblically, and that we appoint men who are qualified to those offices.

In this sermon, we look at one of the two ordinances of the church - baptism. In this sermon, we see that baptism is both an external symbol of our being washed clean by the blood of Christ AND the state that we Christians live in as we are covered by the blood of Christ. We also see that our normal mode of baptizing is to immerse the new believer in water because it best symbolizes the believer's participation in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ and subsequent union to Christ by faith.

Acts 2:42-47 describes the life of the early church as they followed the leading and guiding of the Holy Spirit, and gives us us a picture of what church life looks like in its purest sense - straight out of the box, so to speak. Listen in as we look at the final 3 of the 5 ministries of the church seen in this passage.

In this sermon, Pastor Matt talks about various questions surrounding the Lord's Supper - are the elements literal or symbolic? Is it a sacrament or ordinance? What kind of grace does God give us as we take it? How often should we take it? And finally, how do we make sure to take the Lord's Supper in a worthy manner (1 Corinthians 11:27)? We hope you'll listen in for these answers and see how the Lord's Supper is a means of grace that sustains our faith, brings unity to the church body, and looks forward to the marriage supper of the Lamb.
