The Lord made God visible to us. Lord's resurrection both shows us that Jesus is God and made Himself fully united with God. By being fully united with God He not only shows us God but makes himself the way to God. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PAA New Commandment
Worship Service: Informal Family - April 18, 2019
The Lord teaches us to love others as He loves us. He teaches this at the Lost Supper with His disciples, where He also washes their feet. These two events which precede the commandment something about the way the Lord loves us, and how we should love others. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PAThe Reason He Came, Part 4 - Bear Witness to the Truth
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - April 14, 2019
The Lord Jesus Christ came to bear witness to the truth. When we live as Jesus teaches we make ourselves citizens of heaven and part of His Kingdom. The Lord is truth because he fulfilled the Word and because He is the Word made flesh. When we do the truth we bring together the Word outside with the Lord within which brings us into heaven from the inside out. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PAThe Reason He Came, Part 3 - To Send Fire to the Earth
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - April 07, 2019
Lord came to send fire and bring a sword not peace. In other places the Lord says He bring peace. So how do we understand this paradox? The Lord goal for us is peace, but his process is division. We need the truth to get to love. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PAThe Reason He Came, Part 2 - To Save the Lost
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - March 24, 2019
The Lord came to seek and save what was lost. The stories of the Word demonstrate the lost as those in good who have wandered from truth. The Lord came to restore truth to them rather than falsity, and save them as a result. A sign to us that we are in good and love, if we love truth. A lack of desire to pursue truth is an indication we are not in good. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PAReason He Came, Part 1 - To Teach and Heal

Daniel faces a trial when he chooses his pursuit of and dependance on the Lord even with the potential consequences of death.

Belshazzar makes a feast and uses the sacred vessels from the temple of Jerusalem in his feast, and God sends a message of judgement for his abuse of these sacred things. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PALove over Ego, Part 4 - Humility Over Shame
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - February 24, 2019
Nebuchadnezzar learns humility before the Lord through the loss of his sanity. Our sense of humility before the Lord can be a chief virtue that guides and directs our sense of shame. At the same time, having a community that pegs our sense of shame in relationship to the Lord's values is useful to our spiritual health. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PALove Over Ego, Part 3 - Confidence Over Arrogance
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - February 17, 2019
Nebuchadnezzar demanded that the Jews in exile, participate in the court worship of idols on the threat of death. The three Jews in question refused because they were not going to commit idolatry. Idolatry in our age is ways of thinking and living, it is the things that we make most important in our life. Can we have the courage to think and live as the Lord invites us to even at pain of persecution and rejection by others? | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PALove Over Ego, Part 2 - Intentions Over Expectations
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - February 10, 2019
Daniel's wisdom is a product of His dependance on the Lord. When faced with a situation, it is His reliance on the Lord even for his understanding that brings him and his friends through. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PALove over Ego, Part 1 - True Identity
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - February 03, 2019
Daniel sought to maintain his Jewish identity within a foreign culture, but also to succeed within that culture. Daniel stove to not defile himself according to Jewish law, and chose to pursue this by regulating his consumption. Paying attention to what we take in and where it comes from is the starting place for choosing an identity in the Lord. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PA
