The Weight of Silence: Revelation 8:1-13 | A Call to Renewed Faith

Edgerton First Reformed: An Evangelical Presbyterian Church

Have you ever experienced the eerie calm before a storm—a moment of stillness that signals something massive is about to happen? Revelation 8 opens with a profound silence in heaven, a moment heavy with anticipation and awe. What does this silence reveal about God's judgment and mercy? How do the prayers of the saints rise before God as incense, and what do the trumpets of judgment call us to in our lives today? In this sermon, Pastor Mark takes us through the seventh seal and the first four trumpets, showing us the seriousness of sin, the significance of prayer, and the hope of repentance. As the year closes, it’s the perfect time to reflect on where we stand before God and renew our focus on Christ for the year ahead. Our confessional Presbyterian and Reformed church emphasizes Christ-centered preaching and a deep commitment to scriptural fidelity. Join us as we explore the timeless truths of God’s Word and seek to glorify Him in all we do.
