In Micah 1, God’s just and holy character stands front and center. Both Israel and Judah had abandoned the Lord, chasing after sin and idolatry instead of remaining faithful to the one true God. Because of this rebellion, Micah delivers a sobering warning: God’s judgment will fall on the land as the rightful consequence of their sin. Micah 1 reminds us of God's character: He is perfectly holy, and no sin escapes His righteous wrath. 

Chapter 21 brings John's Gospel to a close by showing that the risen Christ not only saves but continues to shepherd, restore, and send His people. Jesus reveals Himself as the living Lord who meets His people in ordinary life, provides for them, and commissions them for His purposes. Christ redeems Peter and charges him with shepherding His flock. The chapter emphasizes that discipleship is personal, calling each believer to follow Christ with obedience regardless of others’ paths or outcomes.

In John 20, we see that the risen Jesus defines what it truly means to believe. Christ calls us to respond to His resurrection with genuine faith, and in that faith, we receive new life from Him. Belief is more than knowledge—it is a genuine relationship with the Triune God.

This week’s sermon on John 19 reminded us that the cross of Christ is not a tragedy, but a glorious triumph. In the moment when Jesus was rejected, mocked, and crucified, He was in fact accomplishing God’s sovereign plan of redemption in fulfillment of Scripture. At the center of the passage is His declaration, “It is finished,” proclaiming that the work of salvation is complete - sin atoned for, justice satisfied, and grace secured for all who believe. As followers of Christ, we are called to behold our King and rest fully in His finished work.

Psalm 84 teaches us not only that true happiness exists but shows us where to find it. It’s a psalm that’s especially helpful for saints who find themselves struggling to fight for joy. Even when life seems full of hardship and suffering, we can find strength in the joy of knowing Christ and belonging to him. For the blessed life is the life most satisfied in God. 

In John 18, we witness Christ wrongfully arrested, tried, and condemned. The perfect Son of God is handed over to those demanding His death. Yet, knowing the cross awaited Him, Jesus willingly embraced it, fully aware that through His sacrifice all who believe in Him would receive forgiveness and salvation. The cross stands as the climax of God’s redemptive plan.

The seventeenth chapter of John’s Gospel is often called the “High Priestly Prayer.” In this passage, Jesus prays to the Father shortly before going to the Garden of Gethsemane, where He will be arrested by a mob, beaten and tortured, and eventually nailed to a cross.

In John chapter 16, we see that Christ had to depart from the world so the Holy Spirit could come and enter into the lives of every follower of Christ. Thus enabling the gospel and the power of Christ to be taken to the ends of the Earth, ultimately drawing people to the Lord and giving glory to God.

Chapter 14 begins a series of remarks meant to encourage the disciples, in the face of dire warnings. Among these are reminders that Jesus is planning to bring them to be where He is, assurance that He is ''the way, the truth and the life'' and the first explicit promises of the coming of the Holy Spirit.

In John 13:34 Jesus announces a “new commandment” to love others as He has modeled.  Human hearts over the centuries had pared down the scope of love commanded in Leviticus 19:18, “Love your neighbor as yourself.”  
Jesus loved the unlovable when he washed the feet of his betrayer.  Jesus loved when he had every excuse to say “not now, I’m going to suffer and die in a few hours.”  
The Gospel enables us follow his new commandment “that you love one another: just as I have loved you.”

In Philippians 2:19-30, the apostle Paul puts forward two ordinary, faithful Christians who lived a life poured out in service to Christ and his people. Timothy genuinely cared for the spiritual interests of the Philippians, and Epaphroditus risked his life to serve Paul. In doing so, both men imitated our Savior, Jesus Christ, who sought us out in our time of need and gave up his life on the cross so that we might be saved. As we consider the lives of Timothy and Epaphroditus, we are called to follow their example and to live a life worthy of gospel imitation by pouring out our own lives in service to Jesus Christ. 

In John chapter 12, we see the dramatic shift from rejoicing to rejection as the crowds welcome Jesus into Jerusalem with palm branches and cries of “Hosanna,” only to later turn away in disbelief when He reveals that His mission is not one of political liberation, but sacrificial salvation. The people’s expectations of a conquering king collided with the reality of a humble Messiah who came to be lifted up on the cross, defeating sin and Satan through His death and resurrection. We are reminded that we do not get to define the Messiah—Jesus defines Himself—and through His sacrifice, He offers eternal life to all who believe.

In John 11, Jesus reveals that he is the Resurrection and the Life by showing that He is the source of it. The raising of Lazarus stands as Jesus’ final miracle, unmistakably revealing His full deity and true humanity, while also setting in motion His own path to the cross. At the heart of the chapter is Christ’s call to personal faith: eternal life is not found in good works, but in trusting in the Son of God, who has absolute authority over sin, death, and the grave.
