Dear Church

Jan 21 2024 • Cedrick Baker, Dan Kent, Greg Boyd, Shawna Boren

At the center of Revelation is the cosmic clash between the Lamb of Truth and the Dragon of Deception. But before we meet either, John delivers messages from Jesus to seven churches. Jesus places the utmost importance on the spiritual state of the Church, his bride, and on the role she plays in the Lamb’s battle against the Dragon. To each church Jesus offers words of encouragement and words of rebuke, and this inspires us to ask: “What words of encouragement or rebuke might Jesus be speaking to us, the Church, today?” As we listen, we heed John’s words: “Let those who have ears hear what the Spirit is saying.”

Our Hidden Treasure

• Greg Boyd

This sermon expounds upon the letter to the church at Smyrna, where Jesus offers encouragement to the church which will be facing suffering and persecution. In their struggles, they are told that they are actually rich, contrary to all of the evidence. If they endure, they will receive the crown of life.

Sheep Among Wolves

• Dan Kent

Jesus addresses the church of Ephesus in the first letter to the seven churches, telling them what they did well and what they need to work on. Specifically, Jesus confronts the fact that they have abandoned the love that they started with. They were good at orthodoxy, but struggled to live a life characterized by love. This is an important message for us today in the midst of perpetual divisiveness over ideological differences.

"We just started attending last summer and we love it! This past weekend the music was so beautiful, I felt the Holy Spirit there and wept the entire time. And then the message on relationships spoke right to my own struggles. God is here."
