On Being Human and the Sanctity of Life

, Media, On Being Human, Sermons | by Pastor Adam Sinnett

On Being Human

One of the most profound questions we face in life is, “What is a human being?” This question lies at the heart of some of the most significant and controversial issues of our day – and the implications are huge. So, over the course of this series we’re laying out a biblical anthropology to explore what it means to be human and how that impacts our understanding of relationships, gender and sexuality. Fortunately, the Bible is not silent on these issues. Today, we look at the sanctity of human life and our role in protecting the most vulnerable among us.

Raising Image Bearers: Practices

, Media, On Being Human, Sermons | by Pastor Adam Sinnett

On Being Human

Today, we look at what it means to be human as we raise image bearers and some practical methods for doing so. Ephesians 4:32; Ephesians 5:2, 25; 2 Corinthians 8:7, 9; and Romans 15:7 pertain to concepts of godly parenting: to raise children who fear God and cultivate hearts that trust and love their King. Parenting is an overflow of the heart, and God must be our foundation, example, and goal as our children are formed through our influence on their life.

This week, we will read Ephesians 5:22-33 and discuss what is means to be women and how we are to respond to our husbands in marriage.

Marriage and the Mystery of Christ

, Media, On Being Human, Sermons | by Pastor Adam Sinnett

On Being Human

Today we look at what it means to be human in marriage. Marriage is a specific part of God's design for life, not merely a matter of personal preference or political constructs. God's purpose throughout time is to bring unity to all things, and marriage exists to point to the deeper reality of Christ and the church. In marriage we display the glory of Jesus who rescued, redeemed, and loves His bride the church.
