Responding to Our New Reality [Colossians 3:1-4]

October 26, 2025

Sermon Notes

Date: 10/26/2025

Preacher: Josh Peglow, pastor

Series: Colossians

Key Text: Colossians 3:1-4

Description:

What if the most practical way to live with what’s in front… begins by looking up?

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Josh Peglow returns to our study in the book of Colossians — where Paul moves from theology to practice; from what is true about us in Christ, to how we are called to live because of it.

Because here’s the truth: when we fix our eyes on Christ in heaven above, everything here on earth below… begins to make perfect sense.

The Covenant-Keeping Wisdom of God [Proverbs 3:1-12]

October 19, 2025

Sermon Notes

Date: 10/19/2025

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor

Series: Wisdom and Worship: Walking Through Psalms and Proverbs

Key Text: Proverbs 3:1-12

Description:

It’s not a spiritual formula — it’s a covenant call.

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues our Wisdom and Worship Study by taking us to Proverbs 3 —
one of the most beloved passages in all of Scripture…
but also one of the most misunderstood.

This isn’t about following steps to get a blessed life.
It’s about trusting the covenant-keeping God who gives life.

Every command to trust Him…
every command to turn to Him…
every command to honor Him…
is not a demand for performance —
but an invitation to faith.

For Christ is the true Son who walked the wise path for us.
And through Him,
the blessings of the covenant are ours:
peace in the midst of chaos,
guidance in confusion,
discipline that restores,
and hope that endures to resurrection life.

God Is the Strength of My Heart [Psalm 73:1-28]

October 12, 2025

Sermon Notes

Date: 10/12/2025

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor

Series: Wisdom and Worship: Walking Through Psalms and Proverbs

Key Text: Psalm 73

Description:

The wicked prosper…
The righteous suffer…
And God seems silent.

What do you do??

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao embarks upon a new study of Wisdom and Worship as we walk through selected Psalms and Proverbs.

In Psalm 73, Asaph walks us through a crisis of faith.
Tempted by envy and disillusioned by the ease of the ungodly,
he nearly loses his footing — until he enters the sanctuary.

There, his vision clears.
He sees not only the end of the wicked…
but the sufficiency of God.

In a world where circumstances often lie,
this psalm lifts our eyes higher —
to Christ, our true sanctuary and eternal portion.

Holy to the Lord: The Judgment, the Reign, and the Glory [Zechariah 14:12–21]

October 5, 2025

Sermon Notes

Date: 10/05/2025

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor

Series: Zechariah

Key Text: Zechariah 14:12-21

Description:

What if the final word in redemptive history isn’t destruction — but holiness?

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao brings our study in the book of Zechariah to a close in which the prophet reveals graphic images of judgment and breathtaking glimpses of glory.

The enemies of God are defeated,
the nations are gathered to worship,
and — from the bells on the horses to the pots in the kitchens —
the Church is made holy.

This is not a return to Old Covenant shadows… it’s the fulfillment of God’s eternal plan:

To make for Himself a holy people in a holy city, where every square inch is marked “Holy to the Lord.”
