Dive Into the Sermons
The Bible speaks to us the most clearly when read in context and understood as a whole. Catch up on current sermons or study a past series.
Please note that under each series, you will find recorded sermon messages with corresponding resources (notes and audio). The recordings that are posted under each series are of the sermon message only.Â
However, if you missed a recent live broadcast and want to watch the entire worship service (including music and stage presentations), you can find our most recent services HERE.
We continue our study of ALL HAVE SINNED by looking at Paul’s questions and answers. This section is important for anyone who counts on the wrong things to be saved.
We continue the series on ALL HAVE SINNED by looking at the Jew (or religious person). This is part of Paul’s progression of looking at sinners from “the worst to the least.” (We all know that there’s no such thing, but this is the way the world often thinks.) Paul builds a wonderful, and easy-to-follow case to conclude that ALL of us fall into the same category when it comes to sin.
We will look at just 5 verses, but they are packed with information. It is one of the paragraphs that you’ve got to read multiple times to begin to understand (at least I do). We will be reminded again that God will judge each person for “what they have done” and will do so without playing favorites.

We continue our series on FOR ALL HAVE SINNED and talk about those who live good moral lives (Christian or not) but then judge others for not living up to their standards. It is a common problem in every society. We’ll also learn about the judgment that Christians face.
This weekend we will review what we learned last fall and then study the sin of those outside of the faith. The basic point that Paul makes in this part of Romans is that “when it comes to sin, we’re all in the same boat.”
We will step back into our study of Romans by starting a new series that will cover Romans 9-11. After reaching the pinnacle of the book in Romans 8, Paul turns his attention to a few more challenging questions before moving into an extended section of practical application. Romans 9-11 will deal with Israel's relationship with the gospel. But woven into that discussion is a series of big questions that all of us need to work through.

In the last message in this series, our focus will be James 5:13-16 as we double down on the "How" of our WALK. We'll move from a general idea of knowing Jesus through the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings to a more practical conversation of working that out in a specific area of our lives.

We will move to our second of three weeks exploring our core value of HIS WORD OUR WALK. This weekend, we'll unpack Philippians 3:7-12. Last week, we looked at the "What" of our walk; that it's about transformation and participation in Christ. This week, we will begin looking at the "How" of our walk as we work through some of the Apostle Paul's most intense thoughts on the topic. As it turns out, Paul had a lot to say about what is truly gain and what is loss.
We will begin a three-week series celebrating and exploring our core value of HIS WORD OUR WALK. This weekend, we'll focus on 2 Corinthians 5:21. As my life verse, I'm excited to share with you the depth of impact it has had in my life and how it can be an anchor verse for anyone who seeks to walk out God's word.
We continue our Beatitude series with the idea of “mourning over sin” and how the Lord brings comfort.  This will be a wonderful reminder that you don’t hear anywhere today but from God’s Word.
We are continuing our series called MY FAVORITE PSALM. Psalm 8 is a psalm of praise for God’s big creation and small humans. That includes you! Not only is it the first psalm of praise in the Bible, but it has a couple of connections to Jesus that might surprise you.

We move back to the Gospel of Mark starting in chapter 6. Jesus had become so popular that pushback was beginning from His family, friends, and political leaders. Jesus left the crowds and returned home to continue His ministry.
This message looks at the relationship of being an employee. We will see that we are called to obey our employer in everything. In today’s text, we will look at four ways that can help us be obedient to our employer all the while keeping in mind that the Lord is our ultimate boss, who we are ultimately serving.
We begin a new 6-part series on great women of faith. Being Mother’s Day weekend, we will begin with the mother of the Jewish people (and, in a sense, the mom of all believers), SARAH. We will focus on the word FAITHFULNESS to describe Sarah and, of course, reflect on our own faithfulness.

If asked, what would you say might be the three most important words to focus on in the upcoming year? Today we'll take a look at some that emerge from a short study of the book of Acts, and how those words might influence our life together.Â
We continue our series on MY FAVORITE PSALM, in which Psalm 95 is a song that will lead us through worship and then bring us to a challenge: What will I do if I hear the voice of God? Psalm 95 is the most talked about Old Testament passage in the New Testament (Hebrews 3-4) and has far-reaching implications. After the music and after the singing, where do we find the voice of the Lord?

We continue our study of Titus by looking at the connection between God’s grace and the way we live. As we have already been learning, the point of the whole text is to align our lives with the Word.
We continue with the ELISHA series by looking at the story of Naaman being healed from leprosy. Join us as we learn not only how Elisha healed him, but also the significance of their encounter.
We continue the series on MY FAVORITE PSALM as we look at Psalm 23, the most famous psalm and probably the most famous passage in the entire Scriptures. And there's a good reason it's so well-loved! So let's look at it together this weekend as we join together and allow the Good Shepherd to "restore our souls."

We will be exploring Paul the Apostle’s advice to the Thessalonians for how to develop and maintain an enduring faith in Christ. This advice will be helpful for all of us as we live in a world that often works against our spiritual growth.Â
Our Scriptural text is Numbers 14, where we see rebellion emerge in the life of God’s people.
The book of Titus is moving toward its climax as it builds on its repetitive theme of doing good. We are not just saved from! We are saved for! We are saved for doing good which will benefit all mankind. But most strikingly, this brings beauty before the eyes of the non-Christian.
We continue our series by watching the soldiers arrest Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane and walk Him to Caiaphas’ house. Throughout the chaos, Jesus was under control... and in control. Peter, on the other hand, was controlled by fear. From the interactions between Jesus and Peter, we learn the good news that faith brings an end to fear.
As Christians, we declare that Jesus is the Son of God and that we want to follow Him. But what does following Jesus really look like? We’ll explore what it means to deny ourselves, take up our crosses, and follow Him. Through God’s Word, we’ll see that it's not a call to simply do more or try harder, but to rest in His love and allow the Lord to empower us to live a victorious life!Â
This week we continue our series by looking at the "first family" and the dynamics between Cain, Abel, and the undeserved grace we receive from God.
This weekend we will learn from Paul’s journey to Athens how we may effectively witness to people of other religions.  With a focus on Islam, we will be reminded of the beauty of God’s salvation through the sacrifice of His one and only Son.
This weekend we will look at King David’s song of deliverance to discover how he found security and assurance in the stress of his world.  Do you feel secure today?  In Christ, we are citizens of heaven.  God in His love for us has given every assurance that we stand of the cornerstone of Christ – not only for today but for all eternity.
Today we examine the wisdom offered in Proverbs 31:10-31.  Wisdom literature helps us address the deepest questions of life.  With the hum of various Mother’s Day messages ringing in the background, we will focus on one of the most penetrating questions:  What is the worth of a person?
God is not impressed by the things that men find impressive. Today, we will see that Jesus offered a word, a warning, and a lesson about a widow to help us understand that God is searching beyond outward appearances which so impress others.Â
Peter turns a corner this week in our passage moving from a description of salvation to what is required of each of us in response to this great gift. We find that this gift has an impact on each of our relationships! This weekend, in light of the gift of salvation given to us, what is the appropriate response to Him and to other people?
We will be encouraged to learn that God has given us a pathway to avoid failing in our Christian walk. None of us are special. We all are tempted by the same types of things. God has made us new, given us a legacy to live up to, and taught us to rely on Him for everything. God Himself provides us a way out of all temptation.
It is with great pleasure we welcome Dr. Daniel Henderson to ECC this weekend and pray that you also will find his encouragement for worship-based prayer a blessing!

In our passage today, Jesus again focuses on the Kingdom of God.The challenge for both the Pharisees and the disciples is whether they can shift their point of view regarding the Kingdom. Our challenge will be the same. Will we live as if Jesus’ teaching is true: the Kingdom is here, in our midst?Â
This message continues in the series on Elisha, an amazing man with great faith in God. Along with faith, Elisha had a great compassion for people and God used him in a miraculous way to meet the needs of a poor widow and her sons. He was able to see past the widow’s problem to what God wanted to do in her life. We will learn that God’s power is limitless, that He wants to accomplish something BIGGER in our lives and that His blessings are “Good to the Last Drop”!
We stand at a pivotal moment. Not an earth - shattering, change - your - life kind of thing, but a moment in time where we pivot from one year into the next. As we look back and thank Him for what He did in our lives this past year, we’d also be wise to consider what He’s got ahead for us.
We return to our study of Nehemiah, and we see how he overcomes a large and unforeseen obstacle. Â In three short acts, we get a glimpse of how a leader calls his people to obedience and the work of the Kingdom resumes in earnest!
We continue the series that will focus our attention on intentional conversations that Jesus had with outsiders. In today's study, we'll take a peek at the nighttime conversation Jesus has with Nicodemus.
Last message we were challenged to consider who we can PLUG IN to making a global impact. But it’s way too easy to get focused “out there” and miss what’s happening right around us. Today we’ll take a look at how we’re equipped to share right here in our own little corner of the world.
This message continues our study in the Gospel of John as we continue to examine different “kings” that easily replace the King of Kings in our lives. Many Christians seek Jesus for salvation but don’t realize that He is also King. When we honor Him as King, our lives are blessed and He gets the glory. In this passage, we see a two men who worshipped safety.
This message turns the tables and take a look at parents. Those are the people who once were kids, but now they bear the awesome privilege– and weighty responsibility– of leading a home to be an environment where Christ is honored through the lives of those who live there.
This message will discuss our responsibility to step out in obedience to whatever God is calling us to do, in order to share his Truth with others. We'll be specifically talking about Biblical Worldview, Biblical Holism and Reconciliation of broken relationships.
Impacting your world can seem pretty intimidating, perhaps even presumptuous. Yet Christ has called us to be a church that makes a global impact. This weekend we’ll consider how we get plugged into His power, purpose and our place of ministry in the world.
This message continues the series on an amazing man. We will see how his devotion and commitment, his dedication and calling led him to continue the great ministry of his mentor Elijah. We will learn the value of leaving a Godly legacy for those who follow in their walk of faith. We will see what can be accomplished if we invest ourselves in others and be challenged to pick up our Mantle, the one the God has for us, and “Pass It On” to others so that the message of God keeps going, and going and going!
