It is our belief that the preaching of the Word of God is a vital component of Christian worship. New Hope preaching is exegetical in nature, meaning that each sermon will be tied to a specific biblical text. Preaching series will vary in content from expositional studies of individual books in the bible, to topical series that will jump around the biblical narrative from week to week.
It’s strongly encouraged that congregants spend time in the passage for the coming Sunday in their devotional time during the preceding week.
The Gospel of John is an amazing piece of ancient literature that introduces us to Jesus as our Shepherd, King, Savior, and Friend.
The first half of John’s Gospel has been called The Book of Signs. Signs aren’t just miracles. Signs point to something. In this series, we’ll look at the signs Jesus gave us and consider how they were all pointing to the new thing that God was doing in our midst. We believe in a God who is not distant and uninterested in the affairs of humanity. No, this God is intimately involved with his creation. It is in the life of Jesus that we see that in perfect manifestation.
Follow along with some “pre-game” Advent sermons all the way through to the post-resurrection narratives of forgiveness and commissioning.
