Title: Obligated to Give Thanks

Passage: 2 Thessalonians 1:3-4

Speaker: Pastor Ryan Martin

That Paul says he has a holy obligation to God in these verses ought to cause us to think for ourselves – am I under any such obligation to God? Yes, all believers are obligated to thank God. Why? To answer this, we must first answer why Paul feels an obligation of gratitude to God as he thinks of the Thessalonians. Why does Paul sense a duty to give thanks to God?

1. For God’s Grace in General
2. For God’s Spiritual Work in Believers
3. For God’s Answering Prayer

Title: Believers Entrusted to God

Passage: Acts 20: 32

Speaker: Pastor Ryan Martin

Date: August 1, 2021

Human efforts in ministry are finite. Circumstances change. People change. People move ; they die. How does a Minister leave Believers? I want you to see four lessons from Paul leaving the Ephesians elders in this passage:

1. He Entrusts the Believers to God
2. He Upholds God’s Gracious Word
3. He Rests in what God’s Grace will do

Title: The Bridegroom Is with Us

Passage: Luke 5:33-39

Speaker: Pastor Ryan Martin

Date: July 25th, 2021

Since Jesus’ disciples did not fast, they stood out like a “sore thumb.” Yet as we listen to Jesus’ words about himself in these verses, the story reveals the glory of Christ in a life-changing way, and gives even greater certainty concerning the things we have been taught.

1. The Joy of the Bridegroom’s Presence
2. The Sorrow of the Bridegroom’s Absence
3. The Superiority of the Bridegroom’s Ways
