Come Sojourn with Us
This is where you will find sermons and updates for our church. Our mission is to preach expository sermons focusing on the gospel of Christ. We are a church that is tied to the reformed tradition and seeks to submit to the scriptures so we walk in the Lord’s wisdom rather than our own.
We would love to have you join us on our Christian sojourn if you are in the Belgrade, MT area. If you are not in area then join us by listening to our bi weekly free sermon podcast.
Stay informed by following us on Facebook, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, or through our RSS feed. We would love for you to join us for worship every Sunday at 10 am and 6 pm. If you cannot join us in person then tune into our YouTube livestream.
Jude continues to speak about the Lord judging the angels and he speaks about the Lord judging people in the past. What does this have to do with our current circumstances in history? How do these examples bear any relevance for us today?
Jude warns the people of God that the Lord is serious about judgment. This is not a very happy topic, and so why does Jude mention this? Is Jesus really one who would judge his own people? Did Jesus judge people in the Old Testament?
The disciples should understand that Christ predicts his suffering, dying, and being raised up to life. When Christ talked about this part of his ministry Christ really means that he is sent to suffer, die, and to be raised up to life. The disciples and the women who were around Jesus missed this central truth. How does Christ react after his resurrection? How does Christ’s reaction put our worship into perspective and show our parting from worship to be so consoling?
If we already know the gospel then why do we need to hear about our sins being forgiven? Why would we want to talk about the forgiveness of our sins week after week?
Jude is the brother of James and the brother of our Lord. This is a brief letter, but Jude is eager to write the letter. What is Jude so eager to write about? Why does Jude talk about judgement, and what hope can we glean from a conversation regarding judgment?
We have a time of confession at the beginning of our worship service. As we join together in this time we might wonder why we would engage in such a practice. Why would we confess our sins if we are forgiven in the Lord? Why would we join together to confess our sins in a worship service?
We conclude our study on the prophet Malachi. This is a prophet that we probably are not the most familiar so what is the prophet’s contribution to our canon? Is this only a prophet who is relevant during the Christmas season when he talks about the Messiah or does this prophet communicate the Gospel in a very profound and significant way?
Please enjoy this exhortation from Mr. Charles Davis as he fills our pulpit and pastor Paul enjoys a week off.
At this point in our Malachi we might wonder if there are any faithful people. Has the Lord forgotten His people? Has the Lord failed to keep a remnant for himself? The Lord gives the assurance that the upside is that the Lord remembers His promise. So, what is the peace of knowing that God remembers His justice?
The Lord calls His people to worship Him. This is something that we understand and assume in Christian worship, but why would we invoke or call upon the name of our God? If we know that we are worshipping Him anyway it seems that we are going to do the right thing no matter what. So, what is the significance of this invocation?
The Lord gives His greeting to the Corinthian church through the Apostle Paul. We might think that this is standard, but what does this greeting tell us about our worship today? What does this greeting tell us about the Christian church today? What can this greeting teach us about our Worship?
The Lord is the one who watches over His people, but his people have not returned the favor. Their passion, their love, and their conviction have grown soft towards the Lord. So, how is the Lord going to deal with this? Will the Lord give his people what they deserve?
The Lord commands people to worship him. Why does God need his creatures to worship him? He is a God who is complete in himself so why does he give such a command? What do we know about God that makes it a joy to worship Him? Why will His people want to worship Him?
The people have failed to love the Lord as they are called to love the Lord. They are a people who have not been faithful and they are contrasted to the Lord who is faithful. How faithful is the Lord? How does the Lord show His faithfulness?
The people of God want to know why the Lord does not seem to love them. In their mind they have not really done anything wrong and so they want proof to show that they have been faithless. So far the issue has been with the priest, but what about the people? What is the Lord going to present to establish his people are faithless?
The Lord calls us to worship and to make the Lord our focal place. When we are called to worship as a people what is the basis of the Lord calling us to worship? How are we called out of the world to Worship our God and our King?
We know that the ministering priesthood of Israel has come to completion because of Christ’s priestly work. Malachi rebukes the priests in Israel, and so what value can Malachi’s warning for the priests have for us today?
The people who receive the message from Hebrews seem to be struggling to keep their faith. The author in Hebrews exhorts them to keep their faith. Why would they want to keep their faith? What does worship have to do with them keeping their faith? How can such an old exhortation still be relevant today?
Israel has a checkered past and some struggles in their faithfulness to the Lord. Now, Israel is in a place where she is sort of in the land, but not fully enjoying all the benefits of the Lord. Israel wants to know if the Lord really loves the younger son, and so they ask the Lord if he really loves Jacob. So, does the Lord love Jacob and how do we know?
Isaiah the prophet is called into the most holies of places. You would think that he would be overjoyed to encounter the full holies of our Lord, but he is overwhelmed by his placement in the true temple. Why is Isaiah so upset and concerned? This is a prophet set apart unto the Lord and so what does he have to worry about? What is the Lord ultimately going to do to set aside this man’s fears, but at the same time equip this man to come into HIs holy presence?
We are a bible believing church in the Belgrade, MT. We are a Reformed Protestant church who desire to build one another up in love as we sojourn under the sun.
