This Day and That Day
Luke 12:35-59

The Village Chapel - 05/04/2025

Waiting is rarely easy, but in Luke 12:35-59, Jesus calls His disciples to wait with a watchful readiness that is anything but passive. His call is to stay dressed for action (be ready), to keep our lamps burning (stay awake), and to live each day with hearts anchored in the promise of His return (eager for His arrival). Our waiting is not wasted–it is shaped by the character and promises of God in Christ and should transform how we live on this day.

Jesus’ words carry both comfort and urgency. He reminds us that the day of His return will come unexpectedly, and the character of our waiting will reveal the true orientation of our hearts. A wake up call for sleepy believers and an invitation to those who don’t yet believe. Join Pastor Tommy as we study together this prophetic teaching from Jesus.

Tune My Heart
Luke 12:22-34

The Village Chapel - 04/27/2025

We live in a world drowning in fear, crippled by anxiety, and drifting into endless distraction. From the rising of the sun to its going down, our hearts are often tossed about—scrolling, striving, worrying and wondering. But what if our restless souls could be tuned, like an instrument, to the joyful music of heaven?

In Luke 12, Jesus calls us away from a life of anxious striving into the secure embrace of the Father's love—a love that gives, provides, and delights to calm our troubled hearts. Join Pastor Jim as he unfolds the beautiful mystery of Jesus as the human soul's A-440 and God's kingdom as our real True North.

The Rest of the Easter Story
Acts 1: 1-11
The Village Chapel - 04/20/2025

Acts 1:1-11 captures a pivotal moment in redemption history—the resurrected Christ prepares His disciples for their mission and then suddenly ascends into the heavens to be seated at the right hand of God the Father. Immediately, two angels appear and reiterate the powerful promise of Christ’s second coming.

This passage reminds us that the gospel is not just about what Jesus has done in the past but also about what He is doing now, what He has promised to do in the future, and what this all means for those who put their faith in Christ.

The Return of the King: Palm Sunday
Luke 19:28-48
The Village Chapel - 04/13/2025

Why have Christians observed Palm Sunday each year for the past 2,000 years? Why is it often called the “Triumphal Entry”? And why did Jesus choose to ride into Jerusalem on a donkey?

Some misunderstood what Jesus was doing that day—and many still do. Some expected a political liberator. Others rejected or ignored Him altogether. A few even tried to silence Him and His followers. And yet, millions throughout history have come to believe in Jesus and have found new life in His name. How is that possible? Can that happen for anyone?

Full Barns and Empty Hearts: The Gospel According to Luke
Luke 12:1-21
The Village Chapel - 04/06/2025

Fear is a powerful force. It can drive us to action or paralyze us in uncertainty. But the question Jesus asks us in Luke 12:1-21 is not whether we fear, but whom we fear. The solution Jesus gives us to our fears may come as a surprise. Rather than fearing man, He calls us to fear the One who holds eternal authority—God Himself. But what does it mean to truly fear the Lord? When feared rightly, what does a life of faithfulness look like? Join us as we continue our study in the gospel of Luke and uncover why the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom—and the key to fearless, faithful living!

Wisdom in Warnings: The Gospel According to Luke
Luke 11:33-54
The Village Chapel - 03/30/2025

We often picture Jesus as the ultimate example of being kind-hearted and soft-spoken, but he is also unafraid to speak hard words of truth in love when necessary. In Luke 11:33-54, Jesus encounters Pharisees and lawyers at a dinner and severely criticizes them for their external religion and adherence to man-made laws, which lead others astray.

Join Pastor Matt as we reflect on how Jesus confronts hypocrisy and challenges us to live a life that points to Him.

The Stronger One: The Gospel According to Luke
Luke 11:14-32
The Village Chapel - 03/23/2025

The mercy of God often arrives in ways we don’t expect. In Luke 11:14–32, Jesus confronts spiritually hardened hearts and warns of vulnerability to the schemes of Satan. When He casts out a mute demon, the crowd marvels—but others resist, question and accuse. Jesus doesn’t simply silence the critics; He reveals a greater reality: a cosmic conflict between two kingdoms, and only one King brings lasting freedom.

Join Pastor Tommy as we consider together the reality of spiritual warfare, the clarity of Christ’s kingdom, and the mercy found in His warnings.

The Gift, Privilege & Power of Prayer: The Gospel According to Luke
Luke 11:5-13
The Village Chapel - 03/16/2025

Prayer is one of God’s greatest gifts—an open invitation to commune with the Creator of the universe. Yet, if we’re honest, we often approach it with mixed motives, distracted hearts, and uncertain faith.

In Luke 11:5-13, Jesus teaches that prayer is not only a gift but also a privilege and a source of transforming power. He urges us to ask, seek, and knock, revealing that our Heavenly Father is not reluctant or annoyed but delights in hearing from us.

Join Pastor Jim as he reminds us that God welcomes us in prayer, is more generous than we can imagine, and, through prayer, draws us deeper into His heart, His plans, and His purposes.
