Sermons About Addiction
Justice and Generosity for the City
Injustice and oppression in the covenant community dishonors God. Christ's ministry on our behalf frees us not only from guilt but the bondage of sin, particularly greed. He works in us that we might fear God and therefore become both just and generous. He works through us to free others from bondage through the gospel.

What Are You Waiting For?
No one likes to wait. Especially for things we really need or think we really want. Fortunately, in our culture, we don't have to wait too long for most things. As a result, we are addicted to instant gratification. Our expectations are high... higher than we think. Unfortunately, this has a negative affect on our experience with prayer, because often times, God's answer to us is... wait. However, if we become the kind of people who learn to actively wait on God, we will discover riches beyond our expectations as well.
