Christ the Servant | Les Newsom

Scripture Reference: Isaiah 52:13-53:12
Israel’s suffering is judgment for sin, but the Servant suffers voluntarily and substitutionally. Christ is not just an example of suffering; He bears our guilt to create a new community by grace.

Sermon Points:

  • The Ordinary Servant
  • The Suffering Servant
  • The Substituting Servant

Christ the King | Les Newsom

Scripture Reference: Isaiah 9:1-7
Isaiah ministered during a time of great gloom and fear, a real social darkness. But a new kind of King is coming! Christ is the Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace—the King who doesn’t use power to take, but to save.

Sermon Points:

  • The Historical Setting
  • The Good News of the Child
  • The Messiah’s Kingdom

Christ the Bridegroom | Brian Sorgenfrei

Scripture Reference: Hosea 1:1-3, 3:1-5
When the prophet Hosea lives out God’s strange command to him and speaks as God’s mouthpiece, something incredible emerges. In what theologians have called the most scandalous book of the Bible, we actually see something about the desires of our heart. We long for someone to see us for who we really are and committed to love us with a never stopping, never giving up love.

Christ the Glory | Les Newsom

Scripture Reference: Ezekiel 10:1-4, 43:1-5
Visions of glory are a powerful human motivator. In Ezekiel’s prophecy, God’s glory leaves because of sin, yet returns in promise. In Christ, God’s glory takes up residence not in a temple of stone but in His incarnate body—and through Him, in us.

Sermon Points:

  • Glory Examined
  • Glory Lost
  • Glory Regained
