Psalm 84
An Introduction to Eternity

Will Dyer reflects on the significance of worship, emphasizing its dual nature as both a communal celebration and a way of life. ​ Drawing from Psalm 84, they highlight worship as a glimpse of eternity, where heaven and earth intersect, and a celebration of God’s goodness. ​ He recount their experience at Camp Kid Jam, observing the joyful worship of children, and connect this exuberance to the ancient Israelites’ pilgrimage to the temple, where they encountered God’s presence. ​ Worship, he argue, is not a mundane routine but a foretaste of the joy and celebration of God’s kingdom, as described in Revelation and Jesus’ parables. ​ The act of communion is presented as a powerful reminder of God’s abundant love and grace, inviting everyone to partake in the celebration of His goodness. ​ Worship, ultimately, is an invitation to experience eternity and the boundless love of God. ​

Psalm 145
Worship As a Way of Life

The sermon emphasizes that worship is not confined to a Sunday morning activity or singing songs but is a holistic, daily orientation of the heart and life. ​ Drawing from Psalm 145, Will Dyer highlights King David’s declaration to praise God every day and meditate on His works, underscoring that worship permeates all aspects of life. ​ The sermon challenges the common division between sacred and secular, urging believers to see all of life as an opportunity for worship—whether in mundane tasks, interactions, or work. ​ Examples like Brother Lawrence’s approach to daily chores and Paul’s exhortation to rejoice, pray, and give thanks in all circumstances illustrate this perspective. ​ Worship is presented as a posture of gratitude and reverence that transforms every act into a divine offering, encouraging listeners to live with an awareness of God’s presence in all moments. ​

Galatians 3:26-29

The message emphasizes the importance of living as followers of Jesus in polarized and divided times, urging Christians to prioritize their identity in Christ over political allegiances. ​ Drawing from Galatians 3:26-29, the Will Dyer highlights that in Christ, divisions such as male or female, slave or free, Republican or Democrat, are secondary to the unity found in Jesus. ​ Violence, whether physical or verbal, is never acceptable for followers of Jesus, and Christians are called to love their enemies and pray for those they disagree with, reflecting the radical love of God who reconciled humanity to Himself while they were His enemies. ​ Will Dyer encourages engagement in politics but warns against making it primary, urging believers to ensure their thoughts and actions produce the fruit of the Spirit. ​ Ultimately, the message calls for the church to break away from polarization and division, remembering their true allegiance to the eternal kingdom of God and living as people of peace and unity. ​

Isaiah 58:13-14
The Art of Sabbath

The sermon focuses on the concept of Sabbath as a sacred rhythm rooted in creation and a revolutionary act of resistance against a culture that values people solely by their productivity and consumption. ​ Drawing from biblical texts like Genesis, Exodus, and the teachings of Jesus, Will Dyer emphasizes that Sabbath is not about restrictions but an invitation to rest, delight in God’s presence, and remember one’s intrinsic worth as an image-bearer of God. ​ The sermon critiques modern societal pressures to “make more bricks” and challenges listeners to trust in God’s goodness by intentionally practicing Sabbath—disconnecting from work, technology, and consumerism to embrace rest, prayer, and meaningful connection with loved ones. ​ It concludes by encouraging the congregation to view Sabbath as a gift from God and a transformative practice that redefines their value beyond worldly achievements. ​
