In The Season of Screens from Psalm 115, we learn that while technology is part of God’s smiling providence—a gift meant to serve us—it can easily become a master that steals our worship. The psalm draws a line between lifeless idols and the living God, calling us to guard our hearts from the glow that lures our desires and to give glory to the God who reigns above every glow. True worship keeps the heart alive, for those who trust in idols become like them, but those who behold the living Go...

The Season of Adversity

In Philippians 4:10–13, the apostle Paul reassured the Philippians while imprisoned and explained how it was possible. As part of The Seasons of Keeping the Heart, this passage shows that adversity is one of God’s appointed means to keep and shape the heart — a classroom where the heart learns contentment, a gym where faith and obedience are trained, and holy ground where the believer depends on Christ who strengthens. Even in God’s frowning providences, He is at work — forming hearts to trus...

The Season of Prosperity

In Deuteronomy 8, Moses warns that prosperity can quietly lead the heart away from God. The believer keeps the heart in seasons of abundance through remembrance, obedience, and worship—remembering the Lord’s faithfulness, obeying His Word, and blessing Him as the true Giver of every good gift. The rarest treasure in life is a heart kept humble and steadfast when the hands are full.

Holy Habits for the Seasons of Keeping the Heart

This reflection invites the church to engage in holy habits of heart-keeping by storing and musing upon God’s Word together throughout The Seasons of Keeping the Heart. Rooted in Proverbs 4:23 and Colossians 3:16–17, it encourages believers to let the Word of Christ dwell richly within them—writing, praying, and sharing it with one another—so that personal soul formation leads to corporate unity in love and holiness.

The Great Work of Life

In this opening sermon from The Seasons of Keeping the Heart, Proverbs 4:23 records a wise father, Solomon, impressing upon his son the sacred, lifelong responsibility of guarding the heart. This great work, commanded by God, is to be pursued with active and ongoing vigilance, for from the heart flows all of life. The sermon calls believers to take up this essential labor of the inner life, for the purity of the heart shapes every season of the Christian journey.

A Good Witness Part II

In 1 Peter 3:15b–17, Peter shows that in unrighteous times, a good witness rests secure—always ready with reason and virtue, keeping a good conscience as both a divine device and gift, and submitting to God’s will with one perspective, one truth, and one choice. The believer’s confidence, conduct, and calm resolve all flow from honoring Christ the Lord as holy in the heart.

A Good Witness Part I

In 1 Peter 3:13–15a, the apostle Peter instructs believers living in unrighteous times to remain steadfast when righteousness provokes opposition. Even if they suffer for doing good, they must not be ruled by fear but by faith—honoring Christ the Lord as holy in their hearts. A good witness rests secure, suffering for good, fearing no man, and exalting Christ above all.

Doxa Church: Sermons

In 1 Peter 3:8–12, the apostle Peter lays out the essential virtues within for the church to live righteously in unrighteous times. He calls us to embody unity, sympathy, brotherly love, tenderheartedness, and humility within the community; to bless rather than retaliate in our witness; and to walk consciously before God’s face by guarding our words, turning from evil, pursuing peace, and trusting His watchful care. Together, these virtues form the Spirit’s portrait of a people set apart, bea...

A Soul Sustained

The psalmist closes Psalm 119 not with triumphalism, but with dependence — showing that a soul sustained is one that clings to the Word of God’s grace and to the God of grace Himself. His prayers are shaped by the Word, his praises rooted in the Word, his help found in God’s nearness, and his hope anchored in God’s pursuit. For the blessed saint, and for us, true life is dependence on the Shepherd who seeks His sheep, sustains His people, and turns even death into gain.

Doxa Church: Sermons

In Psalm 119:161–168 we see a soul fixed — marked by white-hot affection for the Word and cool, steady loyalty to the Word, even in the face of pressure and persecution. The psalmist shows us that true love for God’s Word is reverent, joyous, pure, and continuous, and that real loyalty to God’s Word is unshaken, hopeful, wholehearted, and sincere. Like Ambrose standing before Theodosius, the blessed saint lives under God’s gaze with courage and integrity, and by the Spirit we too are called t...

When You Come To The Lord

This passage shows us what happens when you come to the Lord. The leper came in faith, Jesus responded with kindness and power, and his life was forever changed. Expectation gives way to surprise, and the surprise supplies something better — when we come to Jesus in our need, we find He cares, He can, and He changes us so that we obey Him and tell others of His mercy.

Doxa Church: Sermons

In the Resh stanza [119:153-160], the blessed saint is still walking through affliction — the same affliction that surfaced earlier in verses 50, 67, 71, and 75. Yet even as enemies press in, his suffering does not silence the song of praise on his lips or the prayers that rise from his heart. Strangely enough, these very trials serve as his help, not his harm. So what do we see in Resh? We look through the window and behold it clearly — a soul, not dead, but alive.

Doxa Church: Sermons

From Psalm 119:145–152, we see the blessed saint hemmed in as his enemies draw near. Yet his response to such dire circumstances is neither merely human nor ordinary, but deeply spiritual—his soul cries out to Yahweh. What unfolds before us in the Qoph stanza is a beautiful portrait of how a blessed saint responds to crisis in a way that honors the Lord and sustains the soul. A soul that cries—shaped by the promises of God’s Word—finds the nearness of God sustaining it, even when the ne...

A Soul Anchored

From Psalm 119:137–144, we’re reminded that the blessed saint drops the anchor of faith into the rock of God’s Word—a Word that builds confidence, fosters endurance, and cultivates dependence. We see it in the psalmist, and supremely in the Lord Jesus, who would not settle for anything less than God’s Word. My prayer is that the Spirit would work this in us, so that we would be a people anchored in Scripture, teeming with God’s glory in every inch of the earth we tread.

Psalm 119:129–136 lifts our eyes to see what a Word-formed soul looks like. The blessed saint is captivated by the wonders of God’s testimonies, dependent on the Spirit for light and understanding, desperate for God’s presence, and grieved by a world that refuses His ways. When the Word truly shapes us, it doesn’t produce cold knowledge—but deep communion, steady steps, and sorrowful prayer.

But God: From Death to Dwelling [Matt Hardy]

Ephesians 2 shows how God takes us from spiritual death to life in Christ, not by our works but by His grace. Through Jesus, enemies become family and strangers become His dwelling place. This is the miracle of the good news of Jesus Christ that changes everything.

Doxa Church: Sermons

In Psalm 119:121–128, the blessed saint models a soul that longs—not merely for relief, but for God’s righteous action, merciful instruction, and enduring truth. He cries out from a place of integrity, pleads to be taught even in affliction, and resolves to love God’s Word in a world that rejects it. This is what it looks like to wait faithfully: longing for God while being shaped by His Word.
