Hope for the Homeward [1 Peter 1:1-2]

December 25, 2022

Sermon Notes

Date: 12/25/2022

Preacher: Josh Peglow, pastor

Series: 1 Peter

Key Text: 1 Peter 1:1-2

Description:

His greeting went way beyond “Hello.”

Today, Christmas Morning, on the Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Josh Peglow presents us the gift of new a study in the book of 1 Peter — a book that encourages and equips the suffering, exiled Christian.

For in just the first two verses, not only does Peter’s salutation greet — but remind.

It reminds us of just who we are — through a complex set of mighty designations involving God the Father, the Holy Spirit, and the Son, Jesus Christ… Who’d make His entry into this world — helpless, naked, and lying in a manger.

Goads and Nails [Ecclesiastes 12:9-14]

December 18, 2022

Sermon Notes

Date: 12/18/2022

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor

Series: Ecclesiastes

Key Text: Ecclesiastes 12:9-14

Description:

How do you sum up a book that seemingly is all about uncovering the vanity and meaninglessness of life??… life under the sun?

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao brings us to the conclusion of our study in the book of Ecclesiastes and shows us the ONE THING we should walk away with after reading this book: The secret to NOT having a meaningless life.

… And that secret??… The fear of the Lord.

After all, it is the fear of the Lord that is the fruit of the Gospel. Not a fear of dread… but of love, awe, and wonder.

Gentle Wisdom [James 3:13-18]

December 11, 2022

Sermon Notes

Date: 12/11/2022

Preacher: Josh Peglow, pastor

Key Text: James 3:13-18

Description:

SBC Host: Just what is WISDOM exactly?

Avg Guy: Well, according to Wikipedia, WIDSOM (also know as sapience or sagacity) is the ability to contemplate and act using knowledge, experience, understanding, common sense, and insight.

SBC Host: Fair enough. But there’s something very important that your definition is missing.

Avg Guy: Oh??

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Josh Peglow takes to the pulpit to uncover the “challenge test” that James puts forth onto wisdom.

Because while wisdom IS “the ability to contemplate and act using knowledge, experience, understanding, common sense, and insight” …it’s where that ability COMES FROM that matters.

For wisdom can either come from above (being pure, peaceable, and gentle) or from below (full of bitter jealousy, arrogance, and selfish ambition).

Rejoice and Remember [Ecclesiastes 11:7 – 12:8]

December 4, 2022

Sermon Notes

Date: 12/04/2022 Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor Series: Ecclesiastes Key Text: Ecclesiastes 11:7 – 12:8 Description: You’ve been given the opportunity to address today’s youth. What will your message be? Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in the book of Ecclesiastes and presses us to consider what we’d say if we had such an opportunity. What words of wisdom would you give to a young person just starting out in life? Would you tell them about education? …Investments? Would you share insights about love and family?

As you consider what you’d say, you might want to consult our passage in Ecclesiastes, for Solomon had some timeless words of advice for them… advice that may surprise you.
