…in the body of Christ.

The Glorious Ordinary [1 Peter 4:7-11]

May 12, 2024

SBC frame line - current sermons

Sermon Notes

Date: 05/12/2024

Preacher: Josh Peglow, pastor

Series: 1 Peter

Key Text: 1 Peter 4:7-11

Description:

SBC Host: What would you do if you knew Christ was returning today?

Avg Guy: Clean the house??

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Josh Peglow continues with our study through 1 Peter in which we’re reminded that “the end of all things is near.”

But our response shouldn’t be to put on a pretty face.

Instead, we should do what we’ve always been called to do: to pray, to love, to be hospitable, to serve with the gifts given us.

… recognizing that these seemingly routine tasks — when coupled with His imminent return — infuse us with a heightened anticipation that enables us as Christians to live lives filled with great purpose and intentionality, allowing us to not only participate in God’s redemptive work, but — above all else — to bring Him glory.

Date: 01/22/2023

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor

Series: Romans

Key Text: Romans 1:8-15

Description:  

What if you could listen to the prayers of Paul?

…What if you could look over his shoulder and peek at his itinerary and plans of all the things he wishes to accomplish?

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in the book of Romans and shows us how the introduction allows us this opportunity… and it’s a good thing.

For God has used His Word to model through Paul, shaping how we, as well, are to submit our prayers and plans before the Lord.

When Good Things Come to an End [selected texts]

February 16, 2020

SBC frame line - current sermons

Monty Simao 2014Sermon Notes

Date: 02/16/2020

Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor

Series: Revelation

Key Text: Isaiah 2:2-4; 1 Corinthians 13:13,8; Ephesians 4:11-13

Description:

“All good things must come to an end.”

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monthy Simao preaches his final sermon for our study in the book of Revelation, in which he points out the many wonderful and good gifts the Lord has given to His church in this life. 

Many of His good gifts, however, will come to an end. They will come to an end when this present evil age is over, and they no longer are needed.

For unlike the idiom we all know, stated at the beginning, which conveys negative emotions of acceptance that all things are temporary… with God, these things come to an end because they must make way for the better things that have arrived.

A Gifted Church [Ephesians 4:11-12]

June 5, 2011

Sermon Notes

Date: 06/05/2011

Preacher: Monty Simao, elder

Series: Ephesians

Key Text: Ephesians 4:11-12

Description: Because this is God’s church, He has given us marching orders on how it should be structured and run. In modern times, we have allowed the idea of pragmatism to enter the church and have started adopting business practices and other unbiblical methods.  Paul tells us not only the leadership structure of a church but also the purpose of the leaders and it looks very different from what we usually see today.
