The Young Praised, The Old Wept
This sermon looks at the rebuilding of the temple and how the young men shouted and praised God because they hadn't had a temple in 70 years, but the old men wept because they knew the new temple could never compare to the original one. The sermon compares the story with the modern church and the different worship styles and traditions that seem to seperate most churches by age group. It finally reminds us how both side can be in error and how we need to come together on the one thing that matters and that is carrying out God's business and commission.

Mission & Provision - Ezra 1
When God calls his people to a mission, they're usually utterly incapable of doing it. It is God who provides the resources -- people, promises, and power -- to complete what he calls his people to do.

Making Known His Love
Scripture is full of commands to love one another; in fact, all of the law can be summed up in the word love. We are to love one another, and even to love our enemies. God intends for our love not to be merely abstract or sentimental, but real. Three of the images that God uses to describe the church capture aspects of how we are to love one another. The church is God's family, meaning that we have a unity in the gospel that overcomes all of our differences. The church is the body of Christ, meaning that we all have different functions, some of which may be more prominent than others, but all of us are needed, and we all need one another. The church is the temple of God, meaning that we exist for a far greater purpose than ourselves. We must take care of one another; this is commanded, and it provides a witness to the world, but most importantly, we do this because we love one another and we belong to one another.
