Biblical Repentance
This morning I want to lay out an introduction to Psalm 51. I want to provide you the background for this Psalm so that we all understand exactly where David is coming from when he pens this Psalm. Psalm 51 is a prayer of repentance. It is the heart felt, soul stirred, prayer of a guilty and broken man. And this morning I want us to get a picture of that.

The First Day...
Easter is the pinnacle of the Christian calendar and the centerpiece of the Christian faith. In the resurrection of Jesus Christ the announcement of hope rang through loud and clear! This is the first day of a "new creation" - was Jesus' cry! What was old is being made new; what was broken is being restored; where sin had marred, grace renewed. Bottom line... the resurrection is the starting point for something new! Key Passage: Revelaton 11:15

Easter 2009 - Real Hope
There are two truths about human beings that matter deeply. First, we are all broken people. Second, we are all God’s broken people. Easter is the miracle that shows us how these two truths fit together. Our brokenness is undeniable – physical brokenness, emotional brokenness, spiritual brokenness, societal brokenness, universal brokenness. Our brokenness cost us humans the perfect home where God’s provision and protection and presence reigned freely, but Jesus came to set things right. Jesus was broken for our brokenness, and he became homeless to bring us home. What more could you want than to enjoy the provision and protection and presence of God forever? Easter is your invitation to come home to God. Special Thanks to the following for ideas used in this sermon: Yancey Arrington, Tim Keller, C.S. Lewis, John Ortberg, Cornelius Plantinga, Jr., Charles Spurgeon, Bruce Wesley, Phillip Yancey.

My Broken Schedule
Lent is the dark, grungy, penitential road to the cross, a season in which to ponder our brokenness. In this series, “My Broken,” we use the 40 days of Lent to openly and honestly set forth all of our many broken things: broken bodies, broken relationships, broken self-esteem . . . In pondering our own brokenness, we are able to ask, “What can God do with my brokenness?” And then with clarity we begin to see the broken, twisted path of Jesus that led to a hill outside the city where an execution occurred. Where he bore the brokenness of an entire humanity. Today, we focus on “My Broken Schedule.”
