Sermons from Seven Mile Road Church in Waltham

In this sermon, Pastor Kevin walks through the Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus. Jesus contrasts two men whose earthly lives appear vastly different, reminding us that the life we now live is not always what it seems. Their deaths reveal the reality of the two eternal destinies that await every person—heaven and hell. Yet this account is also a gracious warning, for God’s Word points us to Christ, who freely offers eternal life to all who repent and believe.

In this sermon, Pastor Clint walks thru Luke 12:49-59. Jesus declares that His coming brings a refining fire that will divide even the closest relationships, exposing where true allegiance lies. He urges the crowds to discern the spiritual urgency of the moment, recognizing that God’s kingdom is breaking in and demands a response.

In this sermon, Pastor Clint preaches on Luke 12:13-34. In this passage, Jesus continues to speak about the fears that rule the heart. In this section of teaching, Jesus exposes the folly of coveting, warns against the futility of anxiety, and points us to the freedom of trust. Desire for provision and concern about the future are good and normal, as long as they are tethered to the Lord, trusting his providential care and provision. Disconnected from Him, these desires quickly devolve into fears that overwhelm the heart. Listen and be challenged to consider the folly and futility of the untethered heart.

In this sermon, Pastor Kevin finishes Luke 11. Jesus confronts the Pharisees and lawyers for religious hypocrisy- meticulously cleaning the outside while their hearts remain full of greed, pride, and self-righteousness. The passage exposes the danger of outward religion without inward renewal and calls us to the only true remedy: a heart cleansed and made alive by Christ.

In this sermon, Pastor Clint considers Luke 11:14–26. Jesus exposes the deeper heart issues behind people’s reactions to Him. He diagnoses hard hearts that stubbornly attribute God’s work to Satan, divided hearts that try to remain neutral toward Jesus while benefiting from His power, and empty hearts that experience moral reform without true allegiance to Him.

In this sermon, Pastor Clint walks through Luke 10:25-42. In the parable of the Good Samaritan, Jesus calls his followers to a life of humble, sacrificial love of neighbor instead of self-justification. The story of Mary and Martha teaches us that the gospel is a call into the presence of Christ before it is a call to action.

In our annual Vision Sermon, Pastor Clint walks thru Psalm 73. The Psalm Asaph’s journey from envy and confusion over the prosperity of the wicked to renewed clarity as he enters God’s presence and sees life from an eternal perspective. He learns that nearness to God, not outward success, is the true good, and that the apparent security of the wicked is fleeting compared to the lasting refuge of the Lord. At the start of a new year, this psalm helps reorient our hearts to measure life by faithful communion with God, reminding us that through the gospel Christ Himself is our portion—secured for us not by prosperity, but by grace.

In week three of our Advent series, with the Nicene Creed as our guide, using select scripture texts, Pastor Clint walks us through what it means that Christ came for us nd for our salvation. We rejoice that the eternal Son of God came down for us and for our salvation, entering our broken world in humility and love, and truly suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. On the third day He was raised, securing forgiveness, new life, and a living hope as we await His coming again.
