Divorce is so common that it has affected nearly all of us in some way and yet it is also so painful that it never affects anyone without leaving scars. In Mark 10 Jesus discusses this painful and controversial topic by going back to Genesis and reminding us about the way God designed marriage in the first place. Ironically what we find is that built into the very fabric of marriage is grace to help those who are currently married as well as to offer healing to those who have been painfully affected by divorce. After talking about the way that marriage is meant to reflect Jesus love for his people we will seek to apply these truths to singles, to those who are currently married, to those who have been the victims of divorce, to those who have gotten divorced when they shouldn’t have, and we will conclude by addressing the scars that are left on children whose parents have gotten divorced and the healing that Jesus offers to them.

We often look back to the “glory days” of our past, or to the future with idealistic hope, leaving us unsure what to do in the present. In Haggai 2:1-9, God comes and speaks to a mixed community of people wondering what to do in the present. Listen and hear how the Gospel comforts us and drives us to be strong and work for the glory of God.

If someone were to ask you what your purpose in life is, what would you say? In Haggai 1, God's people are sent back home from exile but rather than fulfill their mission, they seek their own glory. Listen and hear how the Gospel changes our priorities to making God's glory our purpose in life.

We live in a world of ever-increasing anxiety. Psalm 27 shows us that David believes seeking the beauty of the Lord is a grace of God to quiet our anxiety. Listen and hear how the Gospel reveals the face of God that frees us to fix our eyes on the beauty of Christ rather than anxiety.
