Key scripture: John 1:35–51
Jesus’ first disciples didn’t just believe in Him—they followed Him. This message invites us to consider how our own lives are always being discipled by something, and what it would mean to follow Jesus as our true Rabbi.
Sermon by Michael Bailey on August 24, 2025.
Key scripture: John 1:6–8, 19–34 & 3:22–30
We are often tempted to find our identity, purpose and meaning either in others or in our selves. But John the Baptist’s message echoes: Jesus must increase, and I must decrease. This sermon invites us into a radically freeing humility that finds identity and purpose by centering our lives, not on others or our selves but on Christ.
Sermon by Michael Bailey on August 17, 2025.
Key scripture: John 1:1-5, 14 & 20:30-31
The book of John is a firsthand account from one of Jesus’ closest friends—someone who walked with Him, heard His voice, saw His miracles, stood at the cross, and ran to the empty tomb — so that “you may believe Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God” (John 20:30).
At its heart, the Gospel of John invites us not only to know the facts about Jesus but to encounter His love in a way that changes how we see ourselves, our purpose, and the world around us.
