Yesterday's sermon, which I turned into a blog post with accompanying audio, video, and notes:
https://www.scottlapierre.org/jesus-cleanses-the-temple/
The second instance of Jesus cleansing the temple of corruption is in all three synoptic Gospels (Matthew 21:12-16, Mark 11:15-18, Luke 19:45-48). The first instance is only in John 2:12-25 right after the wedding at Cana when Jesus’ ministry began. The first thing Jesus did after his ministry began was cleanse the temple, and the first thing he did after making his triumphal entry into Jerusalem was cleanse the temple. These two cleansings serve as bookends on Jesus’ three-year ministry and reveal his heart for “pure and undefiled religion” (James 1:27).

Sin doesn’t just break lives—it distorts minds.
King Saul’s story shows how rebellion against God led to confusion, jealousy, and despair. But it also reminds us that true wisdom, peace, and clarity are found only when we walk closely with the Lord.
This message challenges us to examine our hearts and choose the wisdom that comes from obedience rather than the madness that flows from sin.

As our bodies age and weaken, it can be easy to lose heart. But Scripture reminds us that even as our outer selves are wasting away, our inner selves are being renewed day by day.
Learn how we can find strength, perspective, and hope when our physical strength fails — by fixing our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen and eternal.
