Deuteronomy 6:1-9 // Gabe CoyleThis sermon focuses on the core of the ancient faith known as the Shema. Found in Deuteronomy 6:1-9, these verses serve as a vital command for the people of Israel to love God with every fiber of their being.

Leviticus 16 // Jacob VangenIn this teaching on Leviticus 16, we examine the detailed instructions given to Aaron regarding the Day of Atonement. The sermon explains the gravity of entering behind the veil and the necessity of the sin offering and the burnt offering. A central focus is placed on the two goats: one sacrificed to satisfy justice and the "scapegoat" sent into the wilderness to carry away the guilt of the camp. We discuss how these rituals illustrate his mercy and the lengths he goes to so that his presence can remain among his people. This sermon helps us understand the weight of sin and the beauty of being made clean in his sight.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2574/responses/new26.03.08

Exodus 20 // Paul BrandesIn this teaching on Exodus 20, we look at the heart of the biblical law and the significance of the Ten Commandments. The sermon breaks down the two sections of the tablets: the first focusing on our devotion to God—prohibiting idols and honoring his name—and the second focusing on our conduct toward our neighbors. We discuss the awe-inspiring atmosphere of the mountain, the thunder and lightning that accompanied his voice, and the role of Moses as a mediator. This sermon invites us to see these commandments as a reflection of his holy character and a roadmap for a life of justice and peace.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/49569651PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2574/responses/new26.03.01

Genesis 37-50  // Paul BrandesThis sermon explores the life of Joseph, spanning from his colorful coat in Canaan to his seat of power in Egypt. We follow the narrative of Genesis 37-50, examining how Joseph was betrayed by his brothers, sold into slavery, and falsely imprisoned. Despite these hardships, the story reveals how God’s hidden hand was at work, positioning Joseph to save entire nations from famine. We focus on the climax of the story—the emotional reunion and reconciliation of the family—and the profound truth that what man intends for evil, God intends for good.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/49562825 PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2574/responses/new26.02.15

Genesis 21-28 // Paul BrandesThis sermon covers the critical transition in the patriarchal narrative from Genesis 21 through 28. We witness the birth of Isaac, the fulfillment of God’s long-standing promise, and the difficult testing of Abraham’s faith on Mount Moriah. As the story shifts to the next generation, we see the search for Rebekah, the birth of the twins Jacob and Esau, and the dramatic conflict over the birthright and the blessing. This study emphasizes that God’s plan continues through imperfect families and that His sovereign choice remains the driving force behind the history of redemption.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2574/responses/new26.02.08

Genesis 17 // Rachel NesseThis sermon explores the profound developments in Genesis 17, where God appears to a ninety-nine-year-old Abram to reaffirm his promises. We examine the introduction of God as El Shaddai (God Almighty), the significant name changes for both Abraham and Sarah, and the institution of circumcision as a permanent physical sign of the covenant. The message focuses on the necessity of walking blamelessly before God and the assurance that nothing is too difficult for the Lord, even when human circumstances seem impossible.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/49556194 PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2574/responses/new26.02.01

Genesis 6-9 // Paul BrandesThis sermon covers the momentous narrative of the Great Flood found in Genesis 6-9. We examine the grieving heart of God in the face of widespread human wickedness, the faithfulness of Noah in a corrupt generation, and the massive scale of divine judgment. Beyond the storm, we focus on the emergence of the remnant from the ark and the establishment of the Noahic Covenant, marked by the rainbow as a sign of God’s mercy and his commitment to never again destroy the earth by water.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/49550153 PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2574/responses/new26.01.18

Genesis 3 // Jacob VangenThis sermon focuses on the pivotal events of Genesis 3, commonly known as "The Fall." We look at the subtle nature of temptation, the choice to disobey God, and the immediate shame that entered the human experience. By studying the dialogue between the serpent and Eve, we gain insight into how faith is challenged and how God responds to human failure with both justice and a profound promise of future hope.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2574/responses/new26.01.11
