Sunday's message was part 42 in our current series through Hebrews. It is entitled "Disciplined as Sons" and is based upon Hebrews 12:3-13. You can listen to or download it HERE.
I thought Sunday’s sermon was outstanding and very thought provoking. Do you believe that, in addition to trials and hardships being God’s discipline in our life, there is also an element of God’s greater plan. That what we consider trials and hardship are, in the scheme of things very small and inconsequential (I am not for a moment making light of the tragedies in all of our lives) and if we really have an eternal view and have truly given our lives over to Christ to be used for His will and His purposes, anything we go through in the furtherance of His will is to be considered gain.
A native of Houston, Texas, Todd served as youth pastor in churches in Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, and Oklahoma.
Todd was called as the first pastor of Metro East Baptist Church in September of 1999. In November 2008 Todd became the Teaching Pastor of Church of the Saviour in Wayne, Pennsylvania.
Following a call to the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA), Todd became the Lead Pastor of Covenant Presbyterian Church in Harrisonburg, VA in August of 2013.
He is a graduate of Southwest Baptist University and Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. Todd and his wife, Karen, have been married since 1990 and have three children: Kate, Ryan, and Matthew.
"Therefore the Christ who is grasped by faith and who lives in the heart is the true Christian righteousness, on account of which God counts us righteous and grants us eternal life."
Martin Luther
"The Gospel is sheer good tidings, not demand but promise, not duty but gift."
