Between the two testaments of our Bible lies four hundred years of silence — no prophets, no burning bushes, no new word from God. But the silence was not empty. In this four-week series, we trace the dramatic history that shaped the world Jesus was born into: the spread of Greek culture, the clash of empires, the rise of Roman occupation, and the competing hopes of a people who never stopped waiting for God to act. Between the Testaments is the story of the long pause before everything changed. Understanding Jesus is much clearer when you understand his world.

Exile and Return is a six-week sermon series tracing one of the most formative seasons in all of Israelite history, from the fall of Jerusalem and the destruction of the temple, to the long, complicated journey back. It follows a displaced community through catastrophic loss, raw grief, and the hard-won discovery that God was never confined to one building, one city, or one nation. Along the way, we'll sit with the poetry of Lamentations, the visionary hope of the prophets, and a faith that grew larger precisely because everything familiar had been stripped away. The series closes with the difficult, unglamorous work of rebuilding, and asks what this ancient community's experience of loss and survival still has to say to us now.

This five-week series walks congregants from Israel's settlement in the land through the rise and fall of the monarchy, tracing the persistent human temptation to trade covenant faithfulness for the false security of transactional religion and human kingship. The series holds honest historical and archaeological grounding alongside careful theological reflection, without shying away from the moral complexity of the biblical text. It closes with a bridge into the coming Exile unit, as the fractures within the united kingdom set the stage for what follows.

What if the wilderness wasn't a detour, but the destination? The next 6 weeks we're journeying through the Exodus story together, from the ancient festival behind Pentecost to Moses standing at the threshold of everything he'd hoped for. Six weeks. One honest walk through the wild places where God meets us.

Have you ever wondered what happened to the disciples after Jesus' resurrection? Where did they travel? What became of them? This series engages the journey of the Gospel through the disciples and others, and how the news of resurrection challenged, confronted, and grew faith and eliminated boundaries.

This year we are doing something a little different at NCC (and ICC). Have you wanted to read and engage with your Bible and don't know how to? Have you tried reading and start out with good intentions, but struggle with it?
Yeah, you're not alone. This year we are breaking it down and giving you what you need to understand, read, and engage thoughtfully with the Bible. This year we have 8 different sermon series (which you can read about in the comments) that cover how the Bible came to be, the significant stories that shape the scriptures and thus our own faith, and what the Bible says about life now, after death, and how God will redeem all life. Each Sunday has handouts that you can put together in a binder and have a rich resource that will serve you for life.
Our first series, which began January 11th and continues through February 15th, feels a lot like a Bible study class where we break down the different genres of the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament and trace how these collections of writings came to be the bound book we carry in our hands today.
We'd love for you to have these tools and resources as well. There are 2 ways for you to participate. First - come and join us! Be in the room, hear and ask questions, receive the handouts. If this isn't for you, there's a link in the comments where you can access all of the handouts and the audio recording and transcript of each week's sermon.
Don't depend on the media or anyone else to tell you who God is and what God wants. Get the tools you need to engage with these Scriptures yourself. You may be surprised by what you find!
