When Joseph stands before Pharaoh to interpret his dream, he immediately declares that it will be the Lord, not him, who interprets Pharaoh's dream.

As the story of Daniel ends, and looks to the distant future, it sounds a note of hope to God’s people in crisis: the time of trouble is cut short, the wise will understand, and the last man standing is you.Rev.

Daniel gets to peek at things that are real but invisible.

Daniel 11 is a long chapter full of history and prophecy. Daniel learns about the future fate of his people and the lands they live in. The chapter leaves us amazed at how accurate the angel's prophecy. It challenges us to be certain about the fulfillment of other prophecy we find in Scripture, including in the later part of Daniel 11. Prophecy should cause us to feel certain about God's plans and to be prepared for King Jesus.

While we might not have enough perspective yet to understand every detail of the prophecy in Daniel 11, we can put our trust in the God who will accomplish all his good plans at the appointed time.-----------------------------------------------We're Incarnation Tallahassee!Visit our website! www.incarnationtallahassee.org/ Watch the Livestream youtube.com/live/ZSeuKYY3J2w
When you think of an encounter with God, what kind of experience comes to mind? Is it a cozy devotional with warm coffee before sunrise? Is it jubilant praise during a church service? Daniel’s encounter with an angel is filled with awe and trembling. It’s certainly not refreshing! But in Daniel 10 we have a window into the weightiness of the spiritual life.Rev.

The Bible gives us lots of names for God. Daniel 7 tells us that God is the Ancient of Days. While the human elders in our lives have lived for many days, know a lot of things, and have done a lot of things, the Ancient of Days has been around for ALL the days (is eternal), knows ALL things (is all-knowing) and can do anything (is ALL powerful).Dr.Stefanie Kreamer | July 7, 2024-----------------------------------------------We're Incarnation Tallahassee!Visit our website! www.incarnationtallahassee.org/ Watch the Livestream youtube.com/live/ZSeuKYY3J2w

Belshazzar, the son of Nebuchadnezzar, makes a mockery of God by throwing a debaucherous party in praise to pagan gods while drinking wine from vessels from the temple in Jerusalem. A hand appears and writes on the wall, and Daniel is the only one who can interpret it. The meaning of the writing: the kingdom will fall because of the pride of Belshazzar. He should have known better after seeing the life of his father Nebuchadnezzar, but he set himself against the Lord. What can we learn from Belshazzar’s downfall?Rev.

As Pastor Tim Keller said, King Nebuchadnezzar tries to be more than a man, so he becomes less than a man. He tries to be like God, so he becomes like and animal. But when Nebuchadnezzar looks up to heaven and repents, he is restored. In this children’s sermon, we focus on how the posture of our bodies affects the posture of our hearts. Kneeling in church can train our hearts to be humble if we let it!Rev.

This week in Daniel 3, we wrestled with what it mean to be faithful by analyzing the interaction between Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego with King Nebuchadnezzar, and how they chose death rather than bow before the King’s idol. Their faithfulness in the time of testing is a challenge to us: to be faithful in the everyday things to Jesus so that we can stand firm with him through anything.

Daniel is fluent in the language and culture of Babylon and the Scriptures and ways of God. This makes Daniel a faithful and accurate interpreter. Just as Daniel has allowed the God of the Bible to interpret his own life, Daniel can then faithfully speak truth to the King Nebuchadnezzar and declare to him that despite human limitations, there is a God in heaven who reveals mysteries.Stefanie Kreamer | June 2, 2024-----------------------------------------------We're Incarnation Tallahassee!Visit our website! www.incarnationtallahassee.org/Watch the Livestream youtube.com/live/ZSeuKYY3J2w

After the events of the resurrection, the disciples go back to their jobs as fisherman. They expected another day's labor but instead got an encounter with the Risen Lord.

John the Baptist testifies that Christ came to forgive us and to fill us. What does it mean that Jesus is “the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world,” and how is this imagery rooted in the Old Testament?Rev.

John now sits in prison after spending his entire ministry preparing the way for Jesus the Messiah, the one who would “proclaim liberty for the captives.” John will soon die at the hands of King Herod even though his life was devoted to ushering in the reign of the King of Kings. What can we learn from Jesus’ words to an imprisoned and questioning John? How do we respond when our lives take tragic plot twists?Peter Lebhar | December 11, 2022For more sermons in Advent series visit https://on.soundcloud.com/JDwZt
We learn from John the Baptist about how to wait for Jesus when it gets confusing and hard.Dr.Sarah Hall | December 11, 2022
No one is more zealous to end war in the world than God Almighty. In Isaiah 9 He lays out His blueprint for global Shalom, and the champion is a child.Rev. Jon Hall | December 4, 2022
Shalom (peace) in the Old Testament means to be whole or complete. Jesus came to bring Shalom, and we’re expectantly waiting for him to return and complete his work!Michelle Herbst | December 04, 2022
If a great prophet like Moses was excluded from the Promised Land, what hope do we have of being let into heaven? See how the downfall of Moses teaches us to trust in Christ alone for our salvation.
Rev. Taylor Bodoh | November 27, 2022
In the season of Advent, we look backwards and forwards to practice waiting for Jesus’ coming. Our advent wreath serves as a “Time Machine,” helping us learn about waiting from people who have done it well. (Matthew 24:29-44)

Why good kings are loving kings, and why they need their people's love.
Rev. Jon Hall | November 20, 2022
The promise of a future prophet like Moses is gloriously fulfilled in Jesus Christ. But in setting our face to this new and better Moses, we must also set our backs to the ways of the world.
Rev Taylor Bodoh | November 13, 2022
Instead of using ‘things’ to try to figure out and change the future, God’s people are called to listen to him through his prophets, his Word, and his Son!
Dr.Sarah Hall | November 13, 2022
Pastor Taylor teaches the kids about the priest’s clothes that were made “for glory and for beauty.” | November 6, 2022
The role of the Levitical priesthood was vital to the life of Israel, but their main job was to stand in for Jesus, the true High Priest who was yet to come. Today, all believers are called priests. We explore in Exodus what that means.
Rev. Jon Hall | November 6, 2022
Why the Tabernacle is still good news for modern Christians.
Rev. Jon Hall | Oct 30, 2022
Who lives in your house? For many of the same reasons that it is good for us to live with grown-ups, it is good for us to live with God! One of the biggest themes in the Bible is that God wants to live with his people.
Dr.Sarah Hall | Oct 30, 2022
Even though God called a whole people to Himself, no one was lost in the crowd. In meeting with the Israelites at Mount Sinai and giving them the Ten Commandments, God shows that he sees each one of us.
Dana Standridge | October 23,2022
How does the Law of Moses square with the God of grace? How can saying “no” to our flesh be a “yes” to God’s purposes?

God is holy and wholly unlike you, but he is for you and draws near to you.

When God visits Moses on the top of Mount Sinai, he warns the people to keep their distance. Why is that? What about us?

In response to frightening need, people grumble and God provides. The story of manna illustrates the rest our heavenly father wants for us.

How God got His people out, and gave them rebirth into a new life of faith.
Rev. Jon Hall | October 2, 2022
God is getting ready to rescue his people from Egypt. He gives them instructions about what to wear, what to eat, and what to do. We are reminded by the lamb's blood that Jesus also died in order to rescue us.
What exactly is the Passover? How does it relate to the parallel ritual of the Lord’s Supper, and what insight does it give us into the Cross of Christ?
God humiliates Pharaoh and the Egyptian idols through the plagues, but as Israel leaves Egypt they themselves will be the ones to disobey God’s commands and give themselves over to idols.
Peter Lebhar | September 18, 2022
The story of the plagues shows us that our heavenly Father is stronger than both human bullies and dark magic.
Dr.Sarah Hall | September 18, 2022
Although Moses eventually becomes one of the greatest leaders of all time, he doesn't start off so well. His reluctance to obey God's call, his sloppiness with the details, and his overwhelming self-doubt give other leaders confidence that God's plans will succeed despite our many weaknesses.
Rev. Jon Hall | September 11, 2022
When Moses met God for the first time, it turned his life around. He encountered a God of holiness, of compassion, and of mystery.
Rev. Jon Hall | September 4, 2022
When God hears people’s cries for help, he often invites us to come with him as he goes in to rescue.
Peter Lebhar | September 05, 2022
When Moses has to leave Egypt and move to a different country, God provides a family to take him in and give him a safe place.
Dr. Sarah Hall | August 29, 2022
Moses is a man of justice, a cross cultural figure, and a flawed savior. But he points forward to the God-man; the true Hyphenated Hero!
Rev. Taylor Bodoh | August 28, 2022
Am I my brother’s keeper? The Bible’s answer is “Yes!” In Exodus, Miriam and Moses take turns rescuing each other, just like our big brother Jesus, who rescued us.
How five brave and savvy women got the better of Pharaoh and saved the savior of Israel.

When we go through hard things in our lives, God is at work to heal and strengthen us (Hebrews 12:1-13).
Dr. Sarah Hall | August 14, 2022
We might wish that all of life was like summer vacation, but the reality is that we're enlisted in the ongoing war between God and sin. The good news is that we have a Father who only disciples us for our good, so we can share in his holiness.
Rev. Jon Hall | August 14, 2022
It has been said, “When the cats are away the mice will play.” But Jesus is looking for servants who will stay dressed for action while we await His Second Coming(Luke 12:35-40).
Rev. Taylor Bodoh | August 7, 2022
Faith in God binds us in service and devotion to God and to one another, transforming the fugitive and the faithless into the faithful. Ultimately, despite our fallibility and our fallenness, God remains faithful and preserves us so that we are found faithful in Him until the end.
Funmi Ojetayo | August 7, 2022
Jesus calls our attention to matters of the soul, Ecclesiastes teaches us that worldly pleasures can never satisfy eternal longings, and Psalm 49 speaks about justice in the afterlife.
Rev. Taylor Bodoh | July 31, 2022
When father Abraham questions God about judging Sodom and Gomorrah, he learns that God is 100% good (Genesis 18:20-33).
Rev. Taylor Bodoh | July 24, 2022
Jesus authorizes His disciples to call God their “Father” in the same intimate relationship and with same obedient disposition as He does. We are to pray recognizing the divine paternity of God, recognizing that we are His children. But, what does it mean to be a child of God? What does it mean to pray, Abba Father?
Funmi Ojetayo | July 24, 2022
What is the difference between mystery stories like Sherlock Holmes and the “mystery” of the Gospel?

You don’t have to ascend to heaven or swim across the sea in order to obey God. His commandments are much more reasonable and not too hard(Deuteronomy 30:11-14).
Rev. Taylor Bodoh | July 10, 2022
The parable of the Good Samaritan is not just a parable about how to be a good neighbor. Jesus is foreshadowing the ultimate rescue of the humanity.

We are a part of God's eternal team! With our brothers and sisters, we can walk the walk, do the work, and glorify God together.
Funmi Ojetayo | July 3, 2022
The harvest is plentiful, and Jesus sends out 70(or 72?) disciples, giving them various principles in Kingdom mission.
Rev. Taylor Bodoh | July 3, 2022
We look at four key elements in following Jesus. Disciples may not take vengeance, assume a risk-free life, avoid conflict with their culture, or put off obeying.
Bishop Neil Lebhar | June 26, 2022
In Luke 4 Jesus uses an Old Testament passage to announce who He is and what He has come to do, but what does that mean for us today?
Rev. Matt Wilkins | June 19, 2022
God promises to satisfy our thirsty and tired hearts when we feel like we are in the desert (Psalm 63).
Dr. Stefanie Kreamer | June 19, 2022
What can we say about the Person and the work of the Holy Spirit? While Jesus’ friends are in mourning over His departure from this world, Jesus comforts them with the promise that He will send His Spirit to lead them into all truth.
Rev. Taylor Bodoh | June 12, 2022
Pastor Taylor uses a basketball drill as an analogy for how the members of the Trinity relate to one another in Scripture.
Rev. Taylor Bodoh | June 12, 2022
Jesus promised His followers that they will receive "power" when the Spirit comes. That promise was fulfilled on the Day of Pentecost, 50 days after the Resurrection, when the Holy Spirit filled the gathered assembly of Jesus' followers and birthed the church. On this Pentecost Sunday, we examine the proofs of Pentecost power, the people's witness to Pentecost power, and the purpose of Pentecost power in creating a new community that transcends human boundaries.

Jon Hall and Abena Ojetayo | May 22, 2022
Jesus ends the Sermon on the Mount with a sober warning about hearing His Words without obeying. But obedience takes courage! What are the blockades we use to keep the Bible from coming too close to our lives?
Rev. Taylor Bodoh | May 22, 2022
Jesus taught us to seek God in prayer as our Abba, our heavenly Daddy, and to understand “how much more” glorious His love is than even the highest examples of earthly love.
Rev. Taylor Bodoh | May 8, 2022
Jesus says that there are only two ways to live: on the road to life, or on the road to destruction. The most important life decision we will ever make is which of these two ways we will travel on (Matthew 7:13-14).
Dr. Sarah Hall | May 15, 2022
Jesus has some sober words for His followers about all the ways they will encounter lies in the world. But in the midst of the warning is an invitation to find the narrow way that leads to life.
Rev. Jon Hall | May 15, 2022
In Matthew 7: 7-11, Jesus tells us to ask, seek, and knock. What does He mean? And how do we do this in our day to day lives?
Dana Standridge | May 8, 2022
"Judge not, that you be not judged" is a well-known but commonly misunderstood verse of scripture. Jesus makes clear in this portion of the Sermon of the Mount that we are not to condemn, but to discern, i.e. judge, fairly and mercifully.
Funmi Ojetayo | May 1, 2022
Jesus teaches us what to do with our hearts when we notice other people doing something wrong (Matthew 7:1-6).
Dr. Sarah Hall | May 1, 2022
After an exhortation for mature Christians to teach one another, Pastor Taylor invites up a Q&A panel on applying the challenging parts of the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5 & 6).
Rev. Taylor Bodoh | April 24, 2022
Jesus is the firstborn from the dead! So his little brothers and sisters know what to expect when it comes their turn to die. (Colossians 1:18; Revelation 1:5)
Dr. Sarah Hall | April 17, 2022
The resurrection of Jesus is a historical fact. How do we know this for a fact? Because of the testimony of eyewitnesses, the testimony of scripture, and the testimony of transformed lives.
Funmi Ojetayo | April 17, 2022
When we look at the parts that the church has given us to play in the passion reading, we discover something important about the ways our hearts respond to God. (Luke 19:28-38 & Luke 23:13-56)
Dr. Sarah Hall | April 10, 2022
Passion Week was full of the passions of God as well as the passions of people. We get to watch what happens when love meets indignation.
Rev. Jon Hall | April 10, 2022
We don’t need to be like those who don’t know God, chasing the things that we are worried about. When we pursue the kingdom instead, the things we need chase us!
Guest preacher Pastor Aaron Sweigart testifies to the sufficiency of Christ in the midst of a culture of worry and anxiety.

Earthly treasure appeals to all of us, but Jesus points out what it really costs.
Rev. Jon Hall | March 27, 2022
Earthly treasure appeals to all of us, but Jesus points out what it really costs.
Rev. Jon Hall | March 27, 2022
It's so easy to jump right into asking God for things when we pray. However, in The Lord's Prayer, Jesus teaches us that even though our needs are certainly important to our heavenly Father, our focus should be on God's goodness and glory instead of ourselves. (Matthew 6:9-13)
Dana Standridge | March 20, 2022
In the Lord's Prayer, Jesus models prayer for His disciples using six petitions addressed to our heavenly Father. In the fifth petition, Jesus underscores the importance of forgiveness in the life of a Christ follower, and three key facts illustrate the principle Jesus tries to get across to us: (1) we need to acknowledge our need for forgiveness; (2) we need to appropriate the gift of forgiveness; and (3) we need to accept the condition of forgiveness.
Funmi Ojetayo | March 20, 2022
Jesus warns us about hypocrisy in our spiritual practices like giving, prayer, and fasting, calling us instead to a life of hidden intimacy with our heavenly Father.
Rev. Taylor Bodoh | March 13, 2022
Jesus tells us how, and why, to practice crypto-righteousness. (Matthew 6:1-21)
Dr. Sarah Hall | March 13, 2022
Jesus gives a radical call to pray for our enemies, turn the other cheek, and go the extra mile. Does He really expect us to do this stuff? How can we imitate the heart of our heavenly Father?
Rev. Taylor Bodoh | March 6, 2022
When we choose to fight our enemies, we both end up looking like a pile of lego rubble. When we invite God into our fights to ask for His help and show kindness to our enemies, we become more like Jesus. (Matthew 5:38-48)
Dr. Stefanie Kreamer | March 6, 2022
Oath-taking was a common practice of the first century Pharisees, but Jesus called it evil. Instead, he told his followers to simply mean what they say.
Rev. Jon Hall | February 27, 2022
Incarnation teens share what it was like to talk through conflict with their friends.
Dr. Sarah Hall | February 20, 2022
Jesus' call for righteousness meets us at the heart-level, and demands that our desires be changed by radical obedience, away from desires of the flesh and instead towards an all-consuming desire for Jesus, for He alone is truly beautiful to behold and worth gazing upon.
Funmi Ojetayo | February 20, 2022
Jesus gives us a new angle on murder and anger. (Matthew 5:21-26)
Dr. Sarah Hall | February 13, 2022
What is the relationship between Jesus and the Old Testament? What does it mean that He came to fulfill the Law and the Prophets, and how does that relate to the Sermon on the Mount?
Rev. Taylor Bodoh | February 13, 2022
The same Jesus who said, "Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted" is still seeking to comfort us in our own lives and stories. (Matthew 5:4)
Dana Standridge | February 6, 2022
If Incarnation Tallahassee were to shuts its doors today, would the community around us know that we were missing a month later? This passage from the Sermon on the Mount tells us that Jesus wants us to be a visible, active, and engaged church in the world.
Funmi Ojetayo | February 6, 2022
Jesus presents a vision for human flourishing with God, and it is quite a contrast from the American Dream and the ways of the world.
To intro our series, Pastor Taylor preaches the entire Sermon on the Mount from memory and then opens it up for live questions.
The new wine Jesus brings is what your soul was made to drink. So, come to Jesus and drink deeply of the new wine of his presence and grace.
On Epiphany we remember the wisemen's journey towards Jesus. With them, we learn that we need to look with our feet, not just our eyes, in order to follow God's guiding star. We learn how to turn around when we are wrong about where Jesus is, and learn to worship him with our whole selves when we find him.
The baptism of Jesus was significant for being the moment he was anointed as Messiah. Pastor Jon explores the Old Testament meaning of that anointing and what it means for Christians today.
The Holy Spirit and the Father are both active at the baptism of Jesus, showing that no member of the Trinity is ever acting alone.
Rev. Taylor Bodoh
One of the first questions that kids ask each other is, "How old are you?" In John 1, we learn that this was an important question that people were asking about Jesus as well, and it gives us a clue into His true identity.
The harsh-sounding message of John the Baptist turns out to be full of grace and hope, and wakes us up to the reality that judgement is coming.
When the people accuse God of injustice, God promises to come Himself in the person of Jesus. His coming reminds us of the cost our discipleship and transformation, and warns the world to be prepared for his second advent.
God came in the old Testament, he has come in the New Testament through the incarnation, and he will come again in glory.
(Genesis 16:7-14; John 1:14-18; Revelation 22:20)
At the end of the story, Nehemiah returns to Jerusalem as governor and finds a mess to be cleaned up. We learn that without strong, godly leadership to disciple us, God's people tend , over time , to make compromises with wickedness, grow greedy in business, and become promiscuous in sex.
How does the Old Testament inform the forms, music and essence of Christian worship? Or, how not to be a Marcionite.
The people of Israel made vows to God to recommit themselves to his Law. It was a fresh start, and showed great progress, but there were still lessons left to learn.
God called the people of Israel to be different from the nations around them. He calls us to be different too. He calls us to be holy.
Why does God's mercy abound towards repeat rebels and sinners like the Israelites as well as you and I? Because he is "a God ready to forgive, gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love." And because he is ever faithful to the covenant he made, he is able to abound in mercy towards us even when we are faithless.
Nehemiah 9 reminds us that we are part of a bigger story, and that God has always been good.
The attacks on Nehemiah get personal and he must show a holy stubbornness in order to complete God’s work. How can we persevere despite attacks, innuendos, and false narratives?
In Nehemiah 5, we consider how Nehemiah confronts a problem and concurrently our need to hear the cry for help from those oppressed. We then consider how the problem was solved in Nehemiah's response and the lesson for us to respond to injustice with righteous anger, careful contemplation, and direct confrontation. Finally, we consider how Nehemiah's example of integrity and generosity calls us as Christians to respond with appropriate action and lead by example.
Our regular commitment of money to the work of God's Kingdom is an act of faith that God is real, it's a meaningful step to help the world's poor, and it also serves our own self-interest as disciples. Pastor Jon issues a call to the global church, beginning with Incarnation, to return to the standard of generosity seen in the early days of the Christian faith.
After finishing half of the wall, Nehemiah responds to the threats of Israel's enemies with faith, prayer and prudence.
Nehemiah's urgent call mobilized the whole Jerusalem community, from the least to the greatest, to participate in a redemptive project that was far greater than they could have imagined.
The work of God requires preparation, which entails proper relaxation, examination, evaluation, exhortation, information, application, and affirmation, in the face of opposition.
Nehemiah is one of the great Old Testament leaders. Chapter 1 revealed him as a man of prayer, and now chapter 2 reveals him as a man of action.
Children's Message: God Is Not A Persian King (Nehemiah 2:1-8) by Incarnation Tallahassee
There's something world-changing that happens when God's people SEE the desperate need and BELIEVE that God can do something about it. Nehemiah shows us what this life of prayer and action looks like.
Children's Message: When God Makes You Part Of The Answer In Prayer (Nehemiah 1) by Incarnation Tallahassee
How baptism makes a gospel promise to our bodies, and also gives hope to the Body of Christ.
Spirit-fruit in the ordinary Christian life is marked by the supernatural empowerment of the Holy Spirit such that character traits that are extraordinary to the human person - love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control - these become the ordinary virtues of the Christian life.
Children's Message: Walking in the Spirit: how to become a fruit tree (Galatians) by Incarnation Tallahassee
In his final doxology, the Apostle Paul explains how the Gospel mystery has been revealed in Christ. Life is not a tragedy. Even suffering and injustice can be redeemed by our sovereign God.
At first glance Romans 16 is a list of names and greetings, but deeper reading reveals golden insights about the early Church.
The goal of the Church's evangelistic mission is to bring new worshippers into the love of God. In this sense, the Great Commission really exists to serve the Great Commandment.
As Paul continues his discussion of “disputable matters” in chapter 14, he shows Christians the way of love in preferring one another and protecting each other’s faith.
Children’s Message: No Quarreling, No Judging, No Despising! by Incarnation Tallahassee
Why the sense of having outstanding debts motivated Paul, and why it should also motivate us to pour ourselves out in love.
Paul's famous words that Christians must "submit to the governing authorities" have often been misunderstood and misapplied. We investigate how Paul might respond to the three main objections to Romans 13: that governments come to power in all kinds of messy ways, that they very often use their power to do evil, and that Christians already serve a perfect King, so why should we add an imperfect one?
We often operate out of our own definition of love, and insist that others love us on our own terms, but Romans 12 teaches us what true love looks like. What it presents is more than mere rules; it's a portrait of a kingdom heart.
When we come into the presence of the Lord, we do not come empty-handed, but bring gifts as part of our worship. The gifts that the Holy Spirit distributes among us are to be given back to God in this way.
Spiritual worship is a response to God’s mercy, an offering of our total selves, resists conformity to the world, and helps us to discern God’s will.
According to Scripture, the Trinity is ineffable not irrational, and the truth of God calls us to awe filled worship.
True spirituality comes down to us as a gift from Heaven. It is meant to be shared with others and break down cultural, racial and linguistic barriers. True spirituality is the result of belief in Jesus and leads to living in unity among all of God's people.
How the Ascension of Jesus is part of the good news of the gospel: something like coronation day, something like graduation day, and something like engagement day.
How Paul's image of the olive tree in Romans 11 perfectly displays his theology of the sovereignty of God and also human freedom and responsibility.
As Paul continues to wrestle with the problem of why mainstream Judaism has rejected Jesus as the Messiah, we learn again the centrality of faith, and the importance of getting the word out.
Children's Message: Using The Right Parts Of Our Bodies (Romans 10) by Incarnation Tallahassee
For Confirmation Sunday our very own Bishop Neil has come to preach about our identity in Christ as the clay in the masterful Potter's hands.
In the midst of his anguish for his fellow Jews, Paul begins a discussion about the Jewish people that continues through chapter 11. In this section, Paul shows the ways God has orchestrated history for the glory of his name.
Why the cross of Jesus is like the Tree of Life we lost in the Garden of Eden, and what the resurrection of Jesus means for the healing of the nations.
In the last week of his life, Jesus stands out among all the many people around him for his sorrow, his courage, his patience, his mercy, his poverty, and his impact.
As we come now to the end of Lamentation, and the conclusion of our study of lament, we are reminded that pain does not go away quickly, or resolve neatly, at least not on this side of eternity. Oftentimes, pain comes in waves, troughs and crests. And it is yet amidst the ruins of Jerusalem, from the trough of despair and devastation, that the weeping prophet arrives at the last stanza of his lament, and cries out to the Lord in prayer. We join with the weeping prophet in Lamentations 5 as we pray in pain, hope against despair, and trust that the God who sees and knows our sorrows, remembers us in our pain, reigns sovereign over our suffering, will one day return and wipe away all our tears and all lamenting will forever cease.
Lamentations chapter 4 reveal some of the more surprising effects that suffering can have on sin: it exposes it, limits it, and, paradoxically, heals it.
In Lam. 3, we examine how we can, in the midst of pain and suffering, in the midst of unremitting sorrow that can so easily give way to despair or denial, how lament actually invites us to dare to hope by calling to mind the truth of who God is - his goodness, faithfulness, and sufficiency - as well as his ultimate purpose for our suffering.
Suffering often makes us angry, and God can take our anger. But there's a difference between ranting and godly lament, and Jeremiah shows us how to turn our pain into real and effective prayer.
In this sermon, we attempt to define lament and its relevance for the season of Lent. Lament is prayer in pain on the path to praise. We see in Lamentations 1, the weeping prophet's painful lament over the destruction of Jerusalem and the consequence of sin and the resulting brokenness, judgment, and utter devastation it wrought in Jeremiah's world and by extension, our world. But while God's judgment over sin is great, his mercy in and through Jesus Christ, is great still. Because of Jesus, God's mercy for us triumphs over judgment.
The Christian hope of glory does not immediately remove our present pain, but it immediately transforms it to be meaningful. We participate with Christ and with creation in groaning for the coming freedom, and we sing victory songs while we yet weep.
Our redemption in Christ comes with the unspeakable glory of being indwelt by God the Holy Spirit and being called sons and daughters of God.
Children's Sermon: A Message For All Nations (Matthew 28: 16 20) by Incarnation Tallahassee
This passage speaks more powerfully about the nature of sin than almost any passage in the Bible. Through it we learn that sin is never God’s fault, that sin is more of a power than a point system, that even genuine believers struggle with it, and that sin has no ultimate claim on a Christian’s identity.
Children's Sermon: Using Our Bodies For Good (Romans 6:9-23) by Incarnation Tallahassee
Welcome our guest preacher Bryan Zhang!
Psalm 63 teaches us how to connect what we experience with what we know to be true about God
With all of the disturbing images from the Capitol this week, Pastor Taylor shares how the Biblical images of Epiphany can speak to our circumstances and to our hearts.
A meditation from Jeremiah 31 on the griefs of the year past, and the bright promises of God.
Children's Sermon: The Strongest Hands Of All (Jeremiah 31:11) by Incarnation Tallahassee
2020 has been a hard year, but through God's everlasting promises and Jesus vulnerable incarnation,, we take heart this Christmas and go into the new year with the power of Emmanuel, God with us.
Guest Preacher: Sarah Ma Taylor
Children's Sermon: A Change of Plans for Mary (Luke 1:26-38) by Incarnation Tallahassee
What is grace? Sometimes the best way to answer a question is not to speak forth but to show forth. To manifest the message. To "incarnate" the truth before the eyes of the watching world.
Children's Sermon: "How Do We Recognize Jesus When He Comes?" by Incarnation Tallahassee
2020 feels like a year of exile for many of us, but the prophet Isaiah reminds us that Emmanuel is able to break in and bring us comfort with His own glorious presence.
The life of the patriarch Joseph prefigures Jesus because he was betrayed by his brothers for silver, and was falsely accused and mistreated, but remained faithful anyway, and rose to save the world. The pattern of his life gives hope and direction for the church as we near the end of 2020.
We are facing a crisis of authority in our country right now, but Christ is still King! According to the Bible, authority and leadership is ordained by God and can be a good thing, but it must not be abused.
The love of God has an experiential dimension through the Spirit and a historical dimension through the Son. How can enter more into God's love that He holds out to each one of us?
The promise of God's justification has already been fulfilled - we have been made righteous by grace, and through faith. Our justification, therefore, allows us to have hope against hope that God will continue to fulfill all of his many promises, even the ones that seem most unlikely and hard to believe in.

In Romans 1, Paul shows how the wrath of God is revealed: in darkened hearts, dishonored bodies, and depraved minds. But find out why even this fearful diagnosis is good news.
If it's good news, then why would we be ashamed of it? Because the Gospel offends our intellect, our pride, and our cultural superiority. We zoom in on two key questions from Romans 1: What is the Gospel? Why does Paul say he's not ashamed of the Gospel?
Paul quotes this prophecy from Habakkuk at the beginning of his letter to the Romans, and it turns out to be a perfect summary verse for his whole letter. Find out why faith is the vital ingredient for life, how it is that the faithful get to be called righteous, and what it looks like for the children of God to continue to live by faith.
Why is it necessary to go to church? Hebrews reminds us that we are called to not only be present but meaningfully engaged in the life of the church.

Love is embattled, costly and impossible to give in a non-transactional way without an infinite supply. Only God can keep on loving and give us the grace to do the same.

Isaiah's prophecy offers a particular comfort for eunuchs, who couldn't marry or have children, and foreigners, who likewise felt left out or not as loved. Unlike the world, God gives these people a special place in His family and house. His offer is the same for us today, and we are called to share this word of comfort with the world.

The floodwaters washed the world clean, but they didn't eradicate sin. God has more work to do, and after the flood we see him acting like the good parent of a rebellious toddler. Some of his best parental moves are that he sets standards, makes concessions, establishes safety, preserves freedom, and wins through love.

Growing up as a Jewish man under the heel of the Roman Empire, Jesus knew oppression first hand, but He rejected the false responses of His day -- the way of separation, the way of privilege, the way of the sword, and the way of religiosity.
Despite the shadow of death that hung over all humanity after the Fall, the first man to die was murdered. In the story of Cain and Abel in Genesis 4, we find the beginning of three themes in Scripture that recur so often they can be considered ordinary: Ordinary Mercy, Ordinary Sacrifice, and Ordinary Violence.

The first chapter of the Bible charts the magnificent work of God crafting a vibrant living world out of dark empty chaos.

In dealing with the problem of unsolved murders, Deuteronomy 21 reveals the extremely high value God places on all human life, how our responsibility for one another increases with proximity, and how the guilt of innocent blood can only be purged through atonement.

The prophets continually speak against the sins of idolatry and injustice, which go hand in hand. While we may not be bowing down to wooden idols today, the pattern idolatry still looks the same: we go to idols for provision but get theft, for service and get slavery, for deliverance and get destruction. While we fear to go to Jesus, when we do, we find just the opposite is true of him, but we have to open our hands and lay down our idols.

Human beings are made in the image of God. This is foundational to understanding human nature, behavior, and even sexuality. However, because of the Fall this image is broken; none alive has escaped its debilitating effect on self-perception and even behavior. What is more, God so loves us that in Christ he took on flesh to make for us a new way being human.
While there are many ethical implications to be considered regarding our views on sexuality, this session focused thinking theologically about human sexuality and on pastoral strategies with youth and young adults, struggling with sexual identity and the pain of brokenness. It offers an overview of responses to some of the current cultural trends such as LGBTQ issues.

Health organizations in the US are talking about our current "Loneliness Epidemic". The gospel of Jesus has an answer to this, and it turns out to be the only answer.

Having shown us that holiness is the goal of our life with God, and that love is essential to that holiness, the Law demonstrates what love looks like in very practical and accessible terms. It shows what love does when it has the advantage, what love does with conflict, and what love does to provide for the poor. More than three millennia later, these old words still have plenty to teach modern people about love.

Isaiah's prophecy of God's suffering servant reminds us of two truths we must not forget about Jesus' death on the cross. First, we must not forget that we, humanity in our sins, are the reason for Jesus' suffering and death, and second, that it was always God's will to save us through these.

The cross and the resurrection were the only way that the wrongs in the world could be made right and we could be made right before God. John's revelation of heaven begs us to ask: What are we worth to Him that He would pay such a price, and what is He worth that He would right every wrong?

Christianity's answer to death is resurrection. The resurrection of Jesus not only proves God's mastery over death, but also provides a path for all of us to follow. Ours is a future-looking faith that hopes eagerly for the day when God will swallow up death forever. Through Jesus, the seven chains of death will then be broken: fear, grief, pain, frustration, humiliation, confusion, and unfulfilled potential. With the shadow of death no longer hanging over us, our resurrection life will be a radically different kind of life.

As we watch Paul complete his first missionary journey in Acts 14, we're seeing an expert at work: at a man who was born to be a cross-cultural missionary.
