Audio, video, and written files for 2002-2017 are available. We are working diligently to get 1975 and 1980-2001. We also have 1974, 1976, and 1979 lessons on reel-to-reel tapes that we plan to convert to MP3s. We hope to load video from past lessons as quickly as possible, but please understand that this is a very slow process as everything prior to 2006 was recorded on video tape.

The Substitute for Our Sins
Title: The Substitute for Our Sins Speaker: Bradley Hicks Series: 2025 Sunday Sermons Date: October 19, 2025 Bible: Luke 22:19-20 The sermon centers on the profound truth that Jesus Christ is the ultimate substitute for humanity's sins, as revealed in the institution of the Lord's Supper in Luke 22:19–20. It emphasizes that sin results in spiritual death—a separation from God, the source of life—and that all people, regardless of background, are accountable for their sins and face eternal judgment. Through the Old Testament sacrificial system, particularly the Passover, God foreshadowed Christ's role as the perfect, unblemished Lamb whose death satisfies divine justice on behalf of sinners. Jesus' body, broken, and His blood, shed, are not mere symbols but declarations of His substitutionary sacrifice, bearing the punishment that sinners deserve so that believers might be reconciled to God. The observance of the Lord's Supper is thus a personal, transformative remembrance, inviting individuals to personally embrace Christ as their substitute and find refuge in His atoning work, with urgent pastoral appeal to those still outside this saving relationship.
