Exhortation- 2 Timothy 3:16-17

2025 has arrived and half of the decade is complete. The world continues to change, but God's word never changes, always standing as our judge for all of life. Listen as Elder Glenn Jones encourages us to read and study the Bible based on the Apostle's saying in 2 Timothy 3:16-17.

Homily - All Grown Up

Paul has some wonderful writing in Galatians that directly addresses our state change since Christ's incarnation at Christmas. The problem is: it's loaded with landmines we misunderstand! But when we carefully consider what Paul is telling us, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, we find tremendous comfort. Listen to this week's sermon from Elder Wes Keene at TRC Chattanooga.

Exhortation - Matthew 10:34

Being a Christian isn't always easy. In fact, a lot of time must be spent simply trying to preserve what has been handed down to us. That sounds like a lot of work, but that's precisely what our Lord commands us to do. Listen as Elder Wes Keene explains in this week's exhortation based on Matthew 10:34.

Homily - Keeping Christ In His Place

When the days were accomplished for Mary to give birth, there was no place for them in the inn (or guest room). Today, not much has changed. The world still has no place for Jesus. As Christians, we must make room for him -- but not in our guest room. Listen as Elder Wes Keene preaches this year's Christmas meditation based on Luke 2.

Homily - The Offspring Of Woman

We are direct recipients of Mary's Magnificat, given after Elizabeth's blessing. Beforehand, Mary had gone to Elizabeth to tell her about the angel, but Elizabeth - filled with the Holy Spirit - tells Mary everything she already knew and even more. In light of this glorious news, Mary breaks out in song and delivers to all of us a poem of God's covenant faithfulness, pointing us to pass on that faithfulness from generation to generation. Listen as Elder Glenn Jones preaches at TRC Chattanooga.

Exhortation - Advent Week 4 (Love)

The fourth and final week of Advent is focused on Love. We are reminded how God's love flows through us into the rest of the world for its very salvation. Listen as Elder Glenn Jones delivers this week's exhortation to TRC Chattanooga.

Homily - The Fruit Of Repentance

We're out of the habit of living out the season of Advent. But it's important that we do so. While Advent is a penitential season, the third week symbolizes Joy. So how can we understand joy in the context of turning to the Lord in repentance. Listen as Rev. David Beckmann preaches at TRC Chattanooga.

Exhortation - Advent Week 3 (Joy)

Guadete. It isn't easy to say, but it's the third week of Advent, when we consider the Joy of Christ's coming into the world. Listen as Elder Glenn Jones delivers this week's exhortation to TRC Chattanooga.

Homily - Advent: Christ Preeminent In All Things

Examining Colossians 1:15-20, Rev. George Crocker meditates on Christ's preeminence in all things and how that applies to us in this Advent season.

Exhortation - Advent Week 2 (Peace)

The second week of Advent is focused on the topic of Peace. People can end up with a lot of misconceptions about Christian peace, and Christ's mission of peace on the earth. Listen as Elder Wes Keene delivers this week's exhortation to TRC Chattanooga.
