Preacher: Douglas WilsonText: Micah 6:8Micah was a younger contemporary to the prophet Isaiah, and he ministered across the reigns of Jotham (c. 740 B.C.) and Hezekiah of Judah (who died in 687 B.C.). Other contemporaries would be Amos and Hosea, which accounts for the similar themes of those prophets—they were all confronting the same kinds of cultural problems. The two great issues were idolatry and social injustice. The name Micah is a shortened form of a name that means “who is like YHWH?”

Preacher: Shawn PatersonDo not shy away from exhorting one another, speaking the truth in love. And be receptive to the admonishment and encouragement of a brother or sister, as we all together walk this ancient path to that same Celestial City.

Preacher: Douglas WilsonSermon: Permit the ChildrenWe want to have a place where evangelical fire burns hot. But we want all the coals to be burning, including the little ones.

Preacher: Aaron VenturaText: Acts 19:8–20

Preacher: Toby SumpterText: Luke 8:19–21We continue our series on Christian maturity and the pursuit of excellence, and we turn to what the Bible teaches about political maturity. In the midst of the mud-slinging of much political discourse, it can be easy to lose sight of basic Biblical principles, much less, long term goals. Apathy, perfectionism, and compromise are all enemies of political maturity. Central to mature thinking, planning, and acting politically is understanding the Lordship of Christ over all, and the different jurisdictions he has assigned to different authorities.

Preacher: Ben ZornesPride wears a thousand faces. But regardless of which face it wears, it is an affront to God. The birthmark of pride is defiance. Defiance of who God is and what God has said. Pride won’t acknowledge that God is Most High, nor will it heed what God tells us about ourselves.

Preacher: Ben MerkleText: John 7:37–39

Preacher: Douglas WilsonSermon: Permit the ChildrenIf you are concerned about your child being baptized because you are not absolutely sure he is truly converted, think of it this way. We were not sure that you were truly converted, and we let you in. Your task as a Christian parent is not to sow doubts in your children. Your task is to teach them to believe.
