The End in the Beginning
Welcome to Chapel City Church! We are so glad that you have joined us for our time of worship today. As we move into the Advent season, we are filled with a certain anticipation. We know that Christmas is coming, so we decorate our homes, we sing familiar songs, and we buy gifts for those that we love. But there is a greater anticipation that we as believers are called to…
The King Who Came &
is Coming Again
Thank you for joining us for our time of corporate worship here at Chapel City Church. As we prepare our hearts to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ, we are reminded of the day that he entered into the city of Jerusalem. He came in humility, riding on the colt of a donkey. He came to…
Anticipating the Advent: The Joy of the Lord
Welcome to Chapel City Church! Whether you are a member, a regular attender, or a first-time guest, we are so glad that you are here. During this advent season, we are taking time to prepare our hearts to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. The incarnation of the Son of God is more than a…
Anticipating the Advent: Peace
Good morning, and welcome to our time of worship together here at Chapel City Church. As we light the second advent candle, we are reminded of the theme of peace. We live in a world of conflict. We see it between nations, we see it in the workplace, we see it in our homes, and we find it in our own hearts. The reality is that sin breaks peace. But the strife between…
He Who is Mighty
Merry Christmas, and welcome to Chapel City Church! Tonight, we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. But this is so much more than the story of an overlooked baby born into obscurity. It’s more than angels and shepherds, more than wisemen and their gifts. This is when we remember the fact that the God of all creation sent his son into the world. The infinite and…
Down the Mountain
Welcome to our time of worship together here at Chapel City Church! Last week we witnessed one of the most dramatic scenes in Matthew’s gospel account as Jesus was transfigured before three of his disciples. They saw the King of Kings in his glory and splendor; a foretaste of what the coming kingdom will look like. But does that experience clear up all of their…
The King Comes into His City
As we come into our “new normal,” this week we are confronted with celebrating very traditional times in a very non-traditional way. We will celebrate the Lord’s Supper together, although we cannot physically be together. We will remember Palm Sunday and the entry of Christ into Jerusalem, but we cannot be together to sing His praise. Perhaps this will give us…
The Grateful Samaritan
We’re glad you’re here to worship with us this morning. We’re entering into a season of holidays that can be uplifting and spiritually rewarding, or they can be just another tradition. We want to pour real meaning into Thanksgiving and make it a part of our lives. We’ll see today how sincere gratitude reflects the heart of people who are being…
The Son of Adam
(Click “Save” above to download the sermon and notes.) During this Advent season, there is a great deal of anticipation. Some of that anticipation is the excitement and joy that surrounds this season. We look forward to friends, family, gifts, food, and so many wonderful things. Some of that anticipation comes closer to apprehension. The season might bring…
Replacing Self-Pity With Brokenness
(Click on “Save” above to download this week’s sermon and notes.) We’ve all been there at one time or another. We’re stuck in a funk – unable to move forward. Whether we feel persecuted, victimized, unworthy or unloved, we can’t refocus and move forward. Sunday is a day to get some biblical tools to understand ourselves better,…
The Covert Rebel (They’re Harder to Spot Than You Think)
(Click on “Save” above to download this week’s sermon and notes.) Luke 15:11-32 speaks of two sons; not just one. The other son is smart, well-behaved, and morally upright. He is an exemplary son. Yet Sunday we’ll see that the other son can be just as much an angry rebel as…
The Overt Rebel
(Click “Save” above to download this week’s sermon and notes.) Rebellion takes on different forms. Sometimes it’s noisy and in-your-face. Other times it’s quiet, simmering, and hidden. Over the next couple of Sundays we look to one of the most famous stories in the Bible, the story that had a prodigal son, but two rebellious brothers. A…
