Matthew chapter 17 tells of Jesus’ transfiguration on the mountaintop. Why were Peter, James and John so afraid during this spectacular event? What is the significance of meeting with Moses and Elijah? How did Christianity completely supplant Greek philosophy, according to French philosopher Luc Ferry? The message tells us who Jesus is, why he came, and how to respond.

Out of Egypt
Jesus’ family fled to Egypt due to Herod’s attempt to kill the child Jesus out of fear. Matthew chapter 2 also records the return of the family into Palestine. Why was the child such a threat to Herod? What may have prompted Joseph to consider returning to Judea at first instead of his hometown in Galilee? How do we make sense of the Hosea prophecy to Israel (“out of Egypt I called my son”) applied to Jesus? The message covers an object of hate, agent of grace, and climax of plan.

Spiritual Warfare
Many today don’t believe in evil beings or even that there is even evil out there in the world. What is so overly simplistic about these views? How does one “underestimate” or “overestimate” the power of supernatural evil beings? What are some key strategies that the devil uses on believers? What is the difference between an “accusation” by the devil and a “temptation”? This Ephesians 6 sermon teaches us whom we fight (not only flesh and blood), what we fight (the schemes of the devil), and how we fight (with everything!).
Work and Family
This sermon was preached by Timothy J. Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on Jan 22, 2012. Series: A Study of Ephesians: Who is the Church?. Scripture: Ephesians 6:1-9
Marriage in Christ
Ephesians chapter 5 is more than saying that a wife needs to submit to her husband; it is a wealth of treasure on marriage and faith. What makes love more than just attraction and passion? Is there a key to making a marriage work? How do we understand the principle of headship? What is so crucial for single persons to understand about marriage? The message covers what marriage is, what marriage does, what marriage means, and what marriage shows.
Children of the Light
Believers live with the challenge of walking obediently in this world for Christ. Why is obedience far more complex than simply choosing between good and bad? So often the challenges are not necessarily a matter or right or wrong, but a matter of better or best, or even equally valid options. How does one even begin to work through this? This sermon on Ephesians 5 teaches what it means to live in obedience, in wisdom, and in joy.
The Meaning of Christmas
