Forgotten Kings: Jehu

January 19, 2026 | Sean Finnegan

Jehu was God’s weapon of judgment upon Ahab and Jezebel. He carried out his mission with intensity and zeal. Although God has not called the church to violence, we should, nevertheless, imitate Jehu’s zeal in our mission to love. 1 Kings 16:30-33 Ahab did more to provoke God to anger ...

Forgotten Kings: Rehoboam

January 13, 2026 | Vince Finnegan

Deuteronomy 17 God anticipated that Israel would ask for a king, and He did not forbid it. Instead, He gave specific instructions for those He would appoint. The most important requirement was that the king write a personal copy of the Law and use it as a guide for his life and rule. God ...

Baptism of Repentance

January 5, 2026 | Sean Finnegan

Matthew 3:1-6, 13-17; John 3:22-30; 4:1-3 John the Baptist was called by God to initiate a renewal movement within Israel, featuring repentance through baptism in water. Even though he had no sin, Jesus came to John to “fulfill all righteousness.” Jesus also baptized many, acting through ...

You Are Loved

December 29, 2025 | Vince Finnegan

“In Christ” reveals the covenant relationship we have with him. The spirit doesn’t change who we are but empowers us to live in the covenant relationship with Christ, freely submitting to his lordship. God’s everlasting love is declared in Romans 8. 1 Corinthians 11:23-27 we are in a ...

What Child is This?

December 22, 2025 | Sean Finnegan

Reading through Luke 2:1-38, we see both God’s provision as well as his restraint in the events surrounding the birth of the Messiah. Instead of cluing in the elite and powerful, he worked through shepherds and the elderly to confirm Jesus’s destiny to Joseph and Mary. God delights to work ...

Isaiah 9:1-2 The land of Zebulun and Naphtali had suffered greatly when the Assyrian king, Tiglath-Pileser, invaded. Though Isaiah lived through the growth of the Assyrian threat from paying taxes (2 Kgs 15:19-20) to outright invasion (2 Kgs 15:29), he prophesied about a light that would ...

You Belong 4: Community Unity

December 9, 2025 | Sean Finnegan

God has graciously provided us with a diverse community of faith. Rather than judging or worrying about our differences, let’s strive to love one another. When issues come up, we can work them out rather than dividing. Romans 12:3-8 God just loves diversity. We see this so clearly by ...

You Belong 3: Your New Identity in Christ

December 1, 2025 | Joshua Smith

Your identity in Christ is received, not achieved. You belong because of God’s grace, you are adopted into His family, and your identity is grounded in what Christ has already done. Romans 6 teaches that your old self died with Christ: “Your old self was crucified with Him.” Your former ...

You Belong 2: Adopted Into God’s Family

November 24, 2025 | Sean Finnegan

When we first believe and repent, we receive God’s spirit, which adopts us into his family. Like Octavius whom Julius Caesar posthumously adopted, we must accept our adoption and live it out. When we do, we will suffer. Thankfully, our inheritance as God’s children far outweighs any ...

Who Told You That? God Is Three Persons

November 4, 2025 | Sean Finnegan

Bible version: NRSVUE (New Revised Standard Version Updated) The common view is that God is three persons in one being or substance. Each of the persons is fully God, but the Father is not the Son, the Son is not the Spirit, and the Spirit is not the Father. Problem 1: Believing that ...

Who Told You That? There Is No Spiritual Warfare

October 30, 2025 | Vince Finnegan

Bible version: NASB-95 (New American Standard Bible-95) The devil disguises evil in sweetness and fun during Halloween, using candy and costumes to draw children toward practices that Yahweh calls detestable. There is nothing sweet or fun about the darkness of the occult or the ...
