1 Kings 10:1-13 - The Queen of Sheba

We hear of the Queen of Sheba coming to experience the wisdom of King Solomon (1 Kings 10:1-13). Finding the truth that is in Christ alone is a worthy quest, but while the queen sought it at the feet of an earthly king, we find the wisdom that changes lives at the foot of the cross.

Mark 5:1-20 - Jesus Loves Beggars

In this message, Tyler Dirks will be sharing from God’s Word. We will be looking at Mark 5:1-20, and see that Jesus Loves Beggars. We must come to grips with our profound neediness and dependency before we are able to understand that Jesus alone can meet that neediness.


The Dirks are with us this morning as they and the Wisconsin Presbytery prayerfully consider planting a church on Milwaukee’s eastside. Tyler is originally from Dodge City, KS. While in college at Kansas State University, Tyler served on staff with Young Life at Crooked Creek Ranch in Fraser Valley, CO where he met his wife Carrie, who is from South Carolina. Tyler graduated with his M.Div. from Reformed Theological Seminary in Charlotte, NC in May of 2007, and took a call to be the Campus Minister for RUF (Reformed University Fellowship) at Johnson & Wales University in Charlotte. Tyler and Carrie are proud parents to Margaret Grace, Henry Lewis and Haven Katelin.

1 Kings 9:1-9

Some 20 years have passed since Solomon came to the throne. At the beginning of his reign, God came to him, granting him wisdom. Now at the half way point, God again speaks (1 Kings 9:1-9), promising His positive presence where there is obedience and discipline where there is disregard for His Law. This chapter marks the beginning of Solomon¹s great decline and is a warning for us, as well.

1 Kings 8:22-30, 46-61

With the Temple now complete and all the furnishing in place, Solomon dedicates the Temple by offering not only sacrifices, but prayer (1 Kings 8). Solomon¹s words not only recall God¹s promise to his
father, David, but also remind us of the need of turning from sin and to God. Repentance is critical to finding rest in all God has done for us in Christ.
