Making and maturing disciples of Christ
Sermons by Brad Franklin (Page 2)
Daniel 9 – Daniel calls upon the Lord, and God answers Daniel. Daniel’s prayer is a prayer masterclass, and God’s answer shows forth His unchanging grace to His people.
Number 21:4-9. The judgment in the wilderness reminds us that our sin is worse than we think, yet God alone provides us the way to life.
Daniel 6. This chapter shows us the way things really work, how Christians are to respond, how God saves, and how it will all end.
Daniel 3 – Nebuchadnezzar’s golden image reminds Christians today of the pressure to bow before worldly idolatry, their responsibility to stand firm, and God’s mighty power to save.
Romans 13:1. Paul’s letter to the Romans gives Christians today instructions on how to understand and respond to civil government.
Titus 1:9 – Paul tasks Titus with seeing that elders are appointed in the churches across Crete. From Paul’s instructions, we learn God’s pattern for leadership in His church.
Daniel 1 – The beginning of Daniel’s story reminds us that the Lord is the one truly in charge, regardless of what we see around us, and our loyalties are to lie completely with him.
Matthew 2:1-12. Matthew’s account of the response of Herod and the Magi to the birth of Jesus give us important lessons on our response to Jesus.
Luke 2:1-20 – In this most famous of Christmas accounts, we learn that this baby Jesus is both special and humble.
Romans 11:33-36 – God is great, and no exclamation can capture his greatness.
1 Corinthians 11:17-26 – Selfishness is lethal to the church – especially regarding the Lord’s supper. It’s a meal that’s meant to both reflect and foster the unity of the church. It’s a family meal through and through.
Matthew 26:26-29 – The Lord’s supper is a gift to Christians – by pointing back to Christ’s atoning work and forward to His return, the Lord’s supper bolsters faith and re-focuses our gaze. Praise God for the bread and the wine!
John 8:48-59 – If we want to learn more about who Jesus is, where better to go than to Jesus Himself? Is there anyone as amazing, glorious and awe-inspiring as Him?
Isaiah 30 – We are obstinate, but thankfully God is overwhelmingly compassionate. Isaiah’s prophecy rings eerily true today. Listen in and be stirred yet comforted.
Proverbs 28:1 – The wicked are and should be afraid. The righteous have every reason to be bold.
Matthew 9:18-10:4 – Most kingdoms expand by the sword, but not Jesus’ kingdom. His kingdom expands as needy people come to Him in faith and as gospel workers carry the message of His kingdom out. Listen in and see where you fit in to this kingdom expansion.
Mt 9:9-17 – Jesus is just that good. He is the friend of sinners and the most important person in history. Listen in to learn what sort of difference this makes in your life.
Psalm 80 – The Psalmist shows us how to respond to hard times: Remember who God is, accurately assess the situation, and call out to God.
Matthew 16:15-16 – Who is Jesus really? Peter’s answer is profoundly simple and accurate: “You are the Christ, the Son of the Living God.”
