Sermons By Alan Bentrup

This sermon, titled “Dependence Day,” was preached on July 6, 2025, during Independence Day weekend.While our nation celebrates freedom and self-reliance, this message from Luke 10:1–11, 16–20 calls us to something deeper: a life of dependence...on God and on each other.In the wake of tragic flooding in Kerrville, where lives were lost and communities shaken, we’re reminded that we were never meant to carry life alone. Jesus sends his followers not with strength, but with trust. Not with resources, but with peace.This is a Gospel of grace, not achievement.Whether you’re grieving, searching, or just tired of trying to do it all yourself, this message is for you.Watch, reflect, and remember: You are not alone. You never have been.
