Our homes should be a reflection of our faith. We must love the Lord with all our heart, soul, and might, and diligently teach these commandments to our children. It's a call to ensure that our homes are not just places of comfort but centers of spiritual activity and growth.

True progress in our faith and church life requires constant movement towards deeper relationships with Jesus and greater impact in our community.

God is with us, God is in us, and God is for us. These truths are simple yet profound and can transform how we live our daily lives, facing challenges with the assurance of His presence and support.

The nature of Christ not only offers comfort but also demands a response of faith and trust. As we navigate the challenges and changes of life, holding fast to the truth of Jesus Christ assures us of His sufficiency in all things.

The call to want more from our relationship with God is a call to active participation in His kingdom work. It’s about moving beyond complacency, stepping out in faith, and being proactive stewards of the gifts God has given us. 

Let's explore the profound implications of the Christian mission, in Luke chapter 10, where Jesus sends out the 72 disciples. This passage serves as a cornerstone for understanding our role and responsibilities as followers of Christ.

It's so important that we live a life that reflects Jesus. Just like in the movie "The Truman Show," where the protagonist's life is constantly under surveillance, we too, as Christ followers, need to realize our actions are always being watched by others.

What do you see when you look at your life? Do you see insurmountable barriers or do you see a cause that cannot be stopped? As Christ followers, we must be people who see opportunities for God to work, rather than obstacles that are unbeatable.

The miraculous event of Jesus feeding the 4,000, emphasizes that His miracles always have a motive and purpose beyond the spectacle, to glorify God and edify us. Jesus' deep compassion for the crowd is a model for us to follow.

Our faith is often tested in small ways, and how we respond to these tests prepares us for larger challenges. Just as Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego had practiced their faith in small acts of obedience, we too must be faithful in the small things to strengthen our resolve for the bigger tests of faith.

The resurrection of Jesus is a historical fact that has personal implications for each of us. It is not just a past event but a present reality that continues to impact our lives. As we reflect on the resurrection, we are reminded that Jesus is intimately involved in our lives and desires a personal relationship with each of us.

The Lord's Supper is a profound moment of reflection and proclamation. As we partake, we declare the Lord's death and His eventual return. This act of remembrance is not just about looking back at the cross but also looking forward to the fulfillment of His promise to come again. It's a dual act of faith—honoring the past sacrifice and anticipating the future victory.

There are 3 times where the Bible recorded Jesus weeping, Listen in as Bro. Larry Wright explains why He wept in those moments.

Granger Smith joins us and recounts a deeply personal and transformative journey that began with a devastating tragedy and led to a profound spiritual awakening. The journey unfolded through four pivotal moments: a devastating day, a nefarious night, a miracle morning, and a really bright light..

Listen in as we discuss Jesus and his encounter with Barabbas.

Walking by the Spirit is a daily surrender that leads to a life free from the grip of fleshly desires. As we become consumed with God's purposes, our former vices lose their appeal and power over us. This intentional focus on spiritual matters ensures that our time and energy are invested in what truly matters—God's kingdom work.

Worthy is The Lamb! Listen in!

Knowing Jesus is essential for breaking the grip of vice. It is not enough to know of Him; we must know Him personally and intimately. This knowledge is transformative, leading us from salvation into a life of sanctification where we grow in our understanding and application of His truth.

WORTHY IS THE LORD! Listen in as we take a look at Revelation 4!

The conflict of desires is the daily battle between our flesh and the Spirit of God within us. Galatians 5:17 tells us that the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and these are opposed to each other. This internal struggle is why we find ourselves reaching for the forbidden fruits, succumbing to temptations, and falling into cycles of sin and repentance. We hate our sins, yet we continue to indulge in them because, deep down, we might still find some enjoyment in them.

Does God really love us? If so, what else matters?

God's presence is not drawn to the outwardly attractive or esteemed by worldly standards, but to those who are often overlooked and marginalized. The church must reflect this heart of Christ, embracing and transforming lives regardless of societal status.

To experience God's presence, we must be hungry and humble, willing to die to self and earnestly seek Him. It is not about religious rituals or legalistic steps; it is about a relationship with the living God. We must wake up to the reality of where we are, build up our relationship with Him, look up to His works, take up His word, and move up in repentance towards Him.

The essence of Christian service is rooted in self-denial and the willingness to perform humble tasks for the benefit of others. This concept is foundational to the church's mission and reflects the sacrificial nature of Jesus Christ's own ministry. The act of service is a tangible expression of love and commitment to the well-being of the community.

The Word of God is not merely a text but a dynamic presence that invites believers into a personal encounter with Jesus. When individuals open the Bible, they are not just reading words but entering into a space where they are taught and held by Jesus Himself. This understanding transforms the act of reading scripture into a deeply relational experience.

The process of refinement in the Christian life is akin to the purification of gold; it is a necessary and ongoing journey that aims to remove the dross of our human nature to reveal the image of Christ within us. This process is not comfortable, but it is essential for spiritual growth and effectiveness in God's kingdom.

Listen in to the message as it challenges individuals, especially heads of households, to take a stand for righteousness and to ensure that their homes are places where God is served and honored.

Listen in as we begin a new series! Jesus is intimately involved in the life of the church, knowing the hearts and actions of His followers. This knowledge is not for condemnation but for the purpose of guiding believers back to a place of love and obedience. The awareness of Jesus' presence should inspire a sincere devotion and a desire to please Him above all else.
