Rather than avoiding, assimilating, or attacking our culture, we are reminded from Acts 17 that we are to engage our culture with the Gospel.

Pastor Xavier Torrado, from Redeeming Grace Church and our mission partner in Puerto Rico, points us to three important marks for the Christian Life from Acts 20.

On Covenant Renewal Sunday we learn from Luke 14 that Jesus makes a radical call to those who will follow him. God's grace is absolutely and amazingly free, but it is not cheap, and it will cost you something.

In Psalm 69 we see that those that God loves still face suffering, and that suffering may come because of our faith in God. But because Jesus entered into our suffering and ultimately gave his life on a cross for our sins, our suffering is not eternal, but through him brings us redemption and reconciliation to God.

On this Palm Sunday we mourn the effects disease, sin and death are having at this moment in our world. Jesus said, "Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted" (Matt. 5:7). Let's pray, fast, and mourn for a world and the shadow of darkness that looms over us right now.

Preaching from Acts 2, Vince Oliveri reminds us of the shared life we experience because of the gospel. As a community of people changed by the gospel we express our awe of God through worship, we practice love for one another through fellowship, and we demonstrate the life-changing power of the gospel by stepping towards neighbors and others in need.

From Acts 2:22-32 we're reminded that Jesus fully experienced death—body and soul. In his descent to the realm of the dead, Jesus defeated death and reversed the curse sin, so that his descent is where gospel victory began. This sermon is the seventh part of the series on the Apostles' Creed.

Preaching from Isaiah 53, we discover the beauty of the gospel in the suffering of our Savior. This is part 6 from a series on from the Apostles' Creed.

We are reminded in John 21 that the gospel is a love story. It's the story of how God's love pursues, restores and transforms a lost people.
