Parenting Seminar May 2020

Dear Fellow Parents, I love being a dad! It’s one of my favorite things to be. And it’s really difficult being a dad. Not so much because my children are difficult, but because I am. I have issues. I need help. God’s grace is at work in me, but I require a lot of work.   I have found that frequent check-ups, reminders, and restarts are essential in pretty much every area…

Women, Don’t Be Isolated in Your Isolation

Sisters, let’s not allow “social distancing” to prevent us from loving each other, building relationships, and having fun together!

World Relief’s Global Gala

If your evenings are starting to feel a little monotonous, (Groundhog Day, anyone?) we have a wonderful opportunity for you this Thursday night. As part of our desire to “stand with the vulnerable,” Redeemer made a $2500 donation to World Relief this week which would normally include the sponsorship of a ten-person table at their annual Global Gala.

Coronavirus and Christ book by John Piper

Church family, I want to point you to a resource that I think will strengthen your faith and give you fresh hope in God during this time.  In his new book Coronavirus and Christ, John Piper invites readers around the world to stand on the solid Rock, who is Jesus Christ, in whom our souls can be sustained by the sovereign God who ordains, governs, and reigns over all…

Good Music for Good Friday

Today is Good Friday—the day we remember the crucifixion of our Lord. We hope this day finds you with some time to sit at the foot of the cross and reflect on the death of Christ and its significance for you.  We look forward to doing that “together” tonight in our service at 7:00. After our service, we also want to point you to a recording of a Tenebrae service featuring…

Spreading Resurrection Hope

He is risen! He is risen indeed! Though social isolation continues and we will not be gathering physically to celebrate Easter this Sunday, the most important thing about Easter (and every day) remains unchanged: the tomb IS empty. Christ HAS risen from the dead! This will be a unique Sunday, and our celebration will feel different. But in unique times, we also have…

Question: Was Christ Forsaken?

“My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” is what David cried about 3,000 years ago (Psalm 22:1). Famously, Jesus cried out these exact words of Psalm 22:1 while he was dying on the cross (Matt. 27:46; Mark 15:34). The question arises: was Christ really forsaken? There is a profound sense in which the answer is “Yes.” There is also an important sense in which the answer…
