Sermons on Matthew (Page 3)
The Final Question
Who do you say that Jesus is? That’s been a critical question throughout Matthew’s gospel. How you answer that question has eternal implications. As we come to the end of Matthew 22 and the beginning of Matthew 23, the identity of Jesus is on display once again. He asks the religious leaders about the Christ, whom they rightly identify as the son of…

Giving to God & Government
Welcome to our time of worship here at Chapel City Church. We have been working through Matthew’s gospel account, and we are in the middle of the passion week narrative.

The King’s Invitation
Last week we finished Matthew 21 with a look at two parables that demonstrated the rejection of Jesus by the religious leaders. It’s important for us to remember that the chapter breaks in our bibles, while helpful, can sometimes separate things that go together. Chapter 22 opens with a third parable that Jesus gave on that occasion, and the three are all…

The House of the King
Good morning and welcome to our time of worship here at Chapel City Church. We gather together for worship, but how do we determine what that is or what it looks like? In some respects, worship is defined very clearly in God’s word. When his people gather, they sing, they pray, they study the scriptures, and they celebrate things like communion and baptism. But…
The King has Come
Merry Christmas, and welcome to Chapel City Church! This time of year is filled with reminders of what God has done. More than carols and comfort, more than family and tradition, we are reminded that the exalted Son of God took on flesh to redeem sinners. The greatest became the least, and in the most humble circumstances the Christ came into his creation. But…
A Light in the Darkness
Thank you for joining us here at Chapel City Church. We come together to worship the Lord, and Matthew’s gospel has helped us understand who Jesus is in a powerful way. As we move toward Christmas on the calendar, we are moving closer to the cross in Matthew. The final verses of Matthew 20 have Jesus leaving Jericho, and into the most familiar scene a most…
When Worldviews Collide
Welcome to Chapel City Church! We are so glad that you have joined us today for our time of worship. As we continue working through Matthew 20, we are going to be confronted with two very different worldviews. We know that as disciples of Christ, we are supposed to think and react differently than others. However, many times our thinking looks a lot like the world around…
