Ortholatreia
Christianity is NOT primarily about orthopraxy: right practice – doing what God says (Ephesians 2:8-9).
Christianity is NOT primarily about orthodoxy: right beliefs – believing what God says (James 2:19).
Christianity IS primarily about “ortholatreia:” right divine service – receiving what the Holy Trinity serves and then serving Him for the sake of His kingdom and for the sake of the world.
If you don’t have the right God and what He does for you right, everything else is forfeit. The Church’s three Creeds summarize what the Bible says about God, who He is and what He does. Today we’ll profess and explain the Athanasian Creed, particularly in light of Genesis 1 and Matthew 28:16-20, and experience God and His work.

A Little While
There are moments in life when ten minutes feel eternal… and seasons that disappear in an instant.
Peter writes to suffering Christians and says something almost offensive: “After you have suffered a little while…” A little while?
This Sunday we explore why those words only make sense if resurrection is true.
We’ll talk about:
• the two clocks people live by
• why suffering shrinks our vision
• the devil’s strategy of “compression”
• why Easter shattered the permanence of suffering
• and what it means that Christ Himself will restore His people
If you are exhausted, discouraged, anxious, or struggling to imagine joy again, this message is for you.

Christ Over All Things
Somewhere along the way, many of us learned to live like everything depends on us.
So we scroll – Monitor – Predict – React – Panic.
But what if the deepest Christian claim is not merely that Jesus helps us… but that He reigns?
This week, we look at Paul’s staggering words in Ephesians 1: Christ is already seated above every power, every fear, every ruler, every force that terrifies us.
And that changes how Christians endure pressure, uncertainty, grief, politics, fear, and chaos.
If you’ve been exhausted by outrage, anxiety, doom-scrolling, or the feeling that the world is coming apart, this sermon is for you.
YOU are not living beneath chaos. YOU are living beneath Christ.

Don’t Fear Their Fear
There’s a moment most of us know.
You’re in the conversation.
You could say something. Just a sentence. Just the truth.
But you hesitate.
Because you already know what might happen next.
This Sunday, we step into that exact moment – and hear what Scripture actually says about fear, faithfulness, and the pressure to stay quiet.
You don’t live by outcomes.
You live by a verdict already spoken.
Join us as we walk through 1 Peter 3:13–22 and rediscover what it means to belong to Christ when faith starts to cost something.
