01/18/2026 | Forgiven

Speaker: Pastor David Goebel

Just as we couldn’t have “chosen” ourselves, so we also can’t extend forgiveness to ourselves for the sin in our lives. Only God can do that. In Christ, that’s precisely what He’s done. At our core, we are a forgiven people. Forgiven people learn to forgive.

Romans 5:6-11 (ESV)

You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath through him! 10 For if, while we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life! 11 Not only is this so, but we also boast in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.

01/11/2026 | Chosen

Speaker: Pastor David Goebel

God is a God who chooses to be in relationship with humanity. In Christ, we are a new “chosen people.” Like the chosen people of old, we too are “blessed to be a blessing.” How are you blessing others in your life right now?

Ephesians 1:1-4 (ESV)

Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, To God’s holy people in Ephesus, the faithful in Christ Jesus: Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight.
