College Wesleyan Church Sermons

Nathan Metz: Jesus simply said, “Remember Lot’s wife.” What a loaded caution! When we consider the full context of the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, what are the implications for our lives? This sermon explores three distinct relationships to our past and the hope we have in a great salvation.

Ethan Linder: Paul writes to the church in Ephesus connecting prayer with the power of the resurrection, leaving us to wonder: what does that mean for our prayers right now? What is the advantage of the resurrection (if any) for our everyday lives and experiences? In this sermon, we’ll overhear Paul’s prayers, exploring how prayer joins us with God’s mission of bringing new life, and how Jesus’ resurrection changes what we can expect when we pray.

Steve DeNeff: If salvation is like passing from death to life (Jn 5:24; 1 Jn 3:14), then discipleship is the practice of resurrection with the hope of one day being fully alive.

Steve DeNeff: On Easter, the future has come. It is here. We are on it. It is under us. Life has broken into death. This changes everything.

Emily Vermilya: “So Gideon built an altar to the Lord there and called it, ‘The Lord is Peace’ and to this day it stands…” The altar is a point of departure where we swear allegiance to one God and part ways with another.
