Anthology Church Sermons

When something in life is broken, our instinct is often to fix it, avoid it, or move on as quickly as possible. Nehemiah begins differently: he stops, grieves, prays, and gets honest with God. This week, we’ll talk about why rebuilding often starts before anything actually gets repaired.
 
About the Series: Out of the Ruins is a four-week journey through Nehemiah about how to faithfully face what is broken, take the next right step, and discover why we need God and other people in the process.

As Anthology celebrates its first birthday, we look back with gratitude at what God has done through the stories and faithfulness of ordinary people. And we look ahead, trusting Him with the story He is still writing.

Most of us have parts of our story we wish didn’t define us. In More to the Story, we’ll look at how Jesus meets us beyond our labels, failures, and past—and how His grace can give us a new way forward.

Jesus doesn’t just rescue us from our past—He gives us a new life to live. Grace reminds us that our past doesn’t get the final word and invites us into meaningful work right where we are.

People may reduce us to our reputation, failures, or worst chapter—but Jesus sees more. Through the story of Zacchaeus, we see how grace meets us where we are and invites us into a different way of living.

Following Jesus changes how we approach the ordinary work right in front of us. Whether our responsibilities feel meaningful or unnoticed, God can use ordinary faithfulness to shape who we are becoming.

Joy is not a distraction from following Jesus; it is part of the life he invites us into. This message invites us to recover wonder, play, celebration, and delight—and to receive joy as a gift from God rather than something we were supposed to outgrow.

Recovering Recess is a four-week series about recovering the childlike trust, humility, tenderness, and joy that Jesus never asked us to outgrow.

Life has a way of making us guarded, hardened, and less open than we used to be. In this message, we look at Jesus’ invitation to bring him our whole soul and allow him to make tender again what life has made calloused.

Comparison, image management, and the need to be noticed can quietly turn life into a ladder we are always trying to climb. Jesus invites us to step off the ladder and practice the kind of humility that can say, “I don’t know,” “I was wrong,” and “I need help.”

Jesus says the kingdom of God must be received like a child—not earned through achievement or controlled through effort. In this message, we explore what it looks like to loosen our grip, trust God with what we cannot control, and live with nothing to prove and something to receive.

What you allow to shape your mind will eventually shape your life.
