Anchored in God’s Word
Psalm Psalm 119:145-176

The Village Chapel - 01/11/2026

Psalm 119 ends the way an authentic Christian life is often lived, not neat and tidy, but with honesty and hope. Cries for help mingle with praise, confidence gives way to confession, and with humility the psalmist recognizes his need for grace while clinging to the sturdy truth of God’s promises.

Join Pastor Tommy as we see how God’s Word anchors us to reality by revealing who God is, who we are in Christ, and where we are headed for eternity.

Where do you turn when you feel the pressure of a "double-minded" world, or when your own heart feels weary? As we begin a new year, we often look for ways to improve our lives through resolutions, but the psalmist in Psalm 119:113-144 points us toward a more certain, life-giving trajectory: a resolute devotion to the Word of God.

Through these ancient stanzas, we discover that God is our hiding place and our shield, offering a strong defense when we feel under attack or uncertain. Learn how the well-tried promises of Scripture provide a steady footing and a hope that will never be put to shame.

The Certain Word in an Uncertain World
Psalm 119: 81-112

The Village Chapel - 12/28/2025

Where do you turn when your world is in chaos, you can’t find your footing, everything seems uncertain, and finding a way forward is unclear?

Psalm 119:81–112 invites us to a more certain, steadier, proper confidence—not confidence in ourselves, but confidence in the God who speaks and in His Word to us. Through our longings and afflictions, as we seek comfort, wisdom and guidance, this ancient song reveals the unshakable certainties of God’s Word. In a world of competing truths and shifting values, discover the sure and certain Word from the God Who speaks—and how His Word remains a lamp for our feet and a light for our path.

The Questions of Christmas
Luke 2:1-20

The Village Chapel - 12/24/2025

From Mary to the magi, from shepherds to kings, the first witnesses to Christmas were caught between wonder and resistance, worship and fear. And in the middle of their questions stood an answer none of them could have imagined: God came near.

This Christmas Eve, we’ll rediscover how the Incarnation restores wonder to a weary world, redirects our worship to the God who stepped into our story, and compels us to bear witness to good news of great joy. Not advice about what we must do—but an announcement of what God has done. Come, stand rapt in awe once more at the story of that first Christmas.

Join Pastor Jim as we take another look at one of the greatest mysteries of all time; how on that holy night, the birth of a child was the invasion of a King—and it still changes everything.

The Unconditional Love of God in Christ
John 3:16-17

The Village Chapel - 12/21/2025

Beyond the familiar traditions and celebrations of Christmas lies something far deeper—a truth that sees and meets our deepest yearnings and longings, heals our brokenness, and speaks grace into our sin. Join us as Pastor Matt walks us through three passages of Scripture that reveal the heart of Christmas: the unconditional love of God made known to us in Jesus Christ, and hear how it is the driving force behind the real meaning of Christmas and the Advent season.

Unshakable Joy
Psalm 98

The Village Chapel - 12/14/2025

What if joy could outlast every trial, hope could shine through every shadow, and peace could settle deep in our souls no matter how much chaos is around us? What if the songs we sing and the promises of God we study in our Bibles could actively shape our hearts and minds? Psalm 98 invites us to consider these possibilities based upon the promises of God, and then to discover this kind of joy in the LORD himself.

I’m not talking about mere happiness—but rather, the unshakable joy of knowing that God has acted, is acting, and will act to redeem His people and restore His world.

Join Pastor Jim for this Advent study of Psalm 98 as we embrace the dawn of redeeming grace—the unquenchable hope, unwavering peace, unshakable joy, and unconditional love of the God who has done wonderful things and continues to do them both for us and in us!

The Dawn of Redeeming Grace Brings Peace
Luke 2:8-14 & Philippians 4:6-9

The Village Chapel - 12/07/2025

During the Advent season, we sing and talk a lot about peace. But instead of being peace-full, why are so many people falling to pieces? What does the Bible teach us about how to handle unrest, worry, fear, and anxiety?

Join Pastor Jim as he connects the dots between the first appearing of God’s “Prince of Peace” into the world, and how life in Christ can bring lasting peace to our hearts and minds.

Bring your fears, your worries, and your restless heart. Leave with the unshakable, unwavering, promise-keeping peace of God in Christ. Because the Baby in the manger didn’t just come to start a holiday.

The Dawn of Redeeming Grace Brings Hope
Isaiah 8:16-9:7

Sermon Notes & Quotes

The Village Chapel - 11/30/2025

In a world marked by deep darkness and spiritual hunger, the Advent season speaks with unusual honesty. The prophet Isaiah describes a people stumbling through distress and gloom, grasping for answers anywhere but God. Yet into that darkness comes a light not awakened from within us but shining upon us. An illuminating and intrusive grace that reveals our need and draws us back to the God who saves. Advent begins in the dark, but refuses to leave us there.

As Isaiah looks ahead to the birth of Jesus, he announces a Savior would bring hope. Light for the blind, freedom for the burdened, peace for the anxious, and forgiveness for the rebel. Join us as Pastor Tommy walks us through Isaiah’s vision of a hope that does not fade and a light the darkness cannot overcome.
