Beatitudes: Those Who Hunger for Righteousness
In this week’s message, Brant continues our study of the Beatitudes.
Beatitudes: Those Who Mourn
In this week’s message, Brant explored the connection between those who mourn and those who hunger and thirst for righteousness. In Hosea 4, we read about the land mourning due to the lack of righteousness as the L-rd pronounced judgement on Israel. Yeshua wants us to be sensitive to the unrighteousness around, not to become numb to it, and to pursue righteousness–and…
Beatitudes: Abundance or Scarcity?
In this week’s message, Brant reminded us that abundance comes from the L-rd and warned us that, in the west, it requires diligence to live a life that’s “poor in Spirit”. Instead of relying on the L-rd like Joseph, and living lives of abundance, we can easily end up looking to our surroundings and living lives of fear based on perceived scarcity.
Beatitudes: A Radical Message for Radical Disciples
In this week’s message, Brant explores what it really mean to be poor in spirit. As disciples of Yeshua, we are called to make a difference. We shouldn’t accept the world’s ever-changing morals; instead, we should walk in humility, focusing on G‑d and His standards–not on the standards and…
Followers, Believers or Disciples?
In this week’s message, Brant examines the three groups of people in the crowd that Matthew describes: believers, followers, and disciples. Only the disciples were willing to be with Yeshua when it gets hard, while the others were plagued by “narcotizing dysfunction”. Which group are you in?
The Glory Made Flesh
In this week’s message, Brant discusses the humanity of Messiah Yeshua found in the opening of John’s Gospel to answer the question “How does the concept of G-d’s Logos becoming flesh transform our understanding of the Good News?”
Wisdom Made Flesh
In this week’s message, Brant explores the theology of early believers within 1st century Judaism. They saw Yeshua not only as the “living Word”, but also as the “living Wisdom” of HaShem and the “living Torah”–the agent through which He created and blesses His people.
The Logos Made Flesh
This week, Brant continues the series “The Word Made Flesh”. He explores how G-d exhibits His incredible love for us–sometimes “tough love”, letting us realize how much we need Him, but ultimately making a way to restore us to Him. Do we have a creation-sized, salvation message to share? Are we bringing His light to a dark and dying world? [Romans 8.19-23 & Genesis 1.1-5]
The Word Made Flesh
With this week’s message, Brant starts a new series “The Word Made Flesh”. Do we think too small when we consider the Good News message? How does the Good News impact creation? In this message we begin discussing the Big Picture of salvation and the mysterious Word of The Lord. [Genesis 1.1-5 & John 1.1-5]
The Grace of Messiah
In this week’s message, Brant teaches how Moses’ favor with G-d translates to grace for Bnei-Yisrael and how that parallels and prefigures the grace of Messiah for us. [Exodus 33.12-34.26]
