Episode Synopsis

Title: Kiss the SonSpeaker: Luke BrandonScripture: Psalm 2Episode Overview:In this episode, we explore Psalm 2—a powerful, prophetic psalm that pulls no punches. This message exposes the futility of humanity’s rebellion against God and reveals His sovereign response through the installation of His Anointed King. You’ll hear how the gospel doesn’t start with comfort but with confrontation: humanity’s hatred for God’s authority, God’s holy derision at the rebellion, and the gracious invitation to find refuge in the Son. This sermon brings both a sobering warning and a liberating hope—there is no refuge from God, only refuge in Him.Key Highlights:• The madness of man’s rebellion against God (vv. 1–3)• God’s enthroned response and divine decree (vv. 4–9)• The invitation to “kiss the Son” and receive mercy before judgment (vv. 10–12)• Why the gospel must be preached with the truth of judgment as its backdrop• A reminder that God's grace shines brightest against the black velvet of judgmentCall to Action:Psalm 2 confronts us with a choice: resist the rightful King or surrender to Him and find mercy. If your heart has sensed the weight of rebellion or the fear of judgment, don’t delay. God’s warning is also His invitation. Humble yourself, kiss the Son, and take refuge in Him. He is not only just—He is merciful. Today is the day to repent, believe, and be made new. Respond not with polite dismissal, but with reverent surrender.Redeemer Church211 Northshore Dr. Bellingham, WA 98226www.redeemernw.org
