Kings of Kings Week 2: The Flawlessness of God's Plans

Do you know that every plan that God has will ultimately come true? Last week we learned how God used all sorts of people, ordinary ones, powerful one, and exiled ones, to set up the family line of descendants that would bring His son, Jesus to the earth. He did not use perfect people. He used people who messed up in terrible ways. However, because of his grace and mercy, God used these sinners, and sometimes their direct sin, to still bring about His ultimate plan for the world: The incarnation of Jesus.

This week we are going to continue to talk about God's plans and how they are flawless. We'll meet a young woman who, even though she was just engaged, was all of a sudden found to be pregnant. We'll see that even though the world couldn't understand God's plan for her life, she continued to trust His flawless plan.

See you this week!

This Sunday: God's Ultimate Will for Your Life

Hey everyone. This Sunday morning we start our Kings of Kings series as we look at the early life of Jesus.

This Sunday we'll be looking at Matthew 1:1-17, which, if we you read ahead, you'll see is a long list of names. In fact, it's a genealogy. Sounds like an exciting passage to read, right? Well it is, actually. Genealogies were very important back in Bible times if you wanted to prove where a person came from. Matthew's main goal in writing this genealogy was to show that Jesus was indeed royal (he came from kings) and Jewish (he came from Abraham). He left out some names and included others that you and I may have left out. (You know that crazy aunt or distant cousin that you have in your family that you wish people would not know about it? Yeah, those. Matthew included those types of people as well).

Well on Sunday morning we are going to be looking at how God ultimately accomplishes his will through all types of people - even people like you and your crazy family members. We'll also see what God's ultimate will is for your life.

If all goes according to plan, we'll have a podcast of the sermon up on iTunes by the beginning of next week so those of you who can't get your hands on a DVD can still listen on your iPod or mp3 player as you please.

See you all on Sunday!

Sunday PM Series

Hey everyone. Here is a quick preview of what we will be studying on Sunday evenings starting February 28th.

King of Kings

This Sunday, February 28th, will be my first official day as Pastor of David Baptist Church. Are you excited? I am!

Just so you know, my preaching goal throughout my entire first year at DBC is to re-introduce, and in many cases introduce, Jesus to people. For many Christians who have known Jesus for a long time, or have been involved in church life for many years, it can become quite easy to "get over" Jesus. We tend to forget about everything that He has done for us in our life - especially when things are running smooth. That's why I'm excited to be preaching through the Gospel of Matthew starting this Sunday.

The first series is titled King of Kings. We'll spend eight weeks looking at the early life and ministry of Jesus Christ - where he came from, who he was, why he was/is such a big deal, how his early ministry started out and what we can learn from Him in the process. Invite a friend and be ready to learn about why Jesus is the only King that you should need or want for your life.
