Treasures the Heart Cannot Lose

A Place Prepared for You

Welcome to the Preached Word. On the night of his arrest, Jesus spoke some of the most tender and certain words in all of Scripture to men whose world was falling apart — words about a prepared place, an unshakeable promise, and a reunion that no power on earth can prevent. In this sermon on John 14:1–3, Dr. Frank Walker sets before us the comfort that sustained the eleven through suffering and martyrdom, and that sustains us still.

Treasures the Heart Cannot Lose

Welcome to the Preached Word. In Matthew 6:19–21, Jesus goes straight to the thing that tells the truth about ourselves, namely, what we treasure. This sermon by Dr. Frank Walker follows that searching word into the heart, asking not merely where we keep our valuables, but who, finally, holds us.

Diligently Guarding Your Heart

Welcome to the Preached Word. Solomon's command in Proverbs 4:23 — "Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life" — cuts straight to the source of everything we say, do, and love, which is precisely why we are so reluctant to take it seriously. In this sermon, Dr. Frank Walker shows us that this command is not a burden to crush us but a grace-given call, made possible only because Jesus kept his heart perfectly in our place and now guards ours by his Spirit.

Trusting the Lord to Direct Your Paths

Welcome to the Preached Word. Proverbs 3:5–6 may be among the most quoted verses in the Bible, but familiarity has a way of turning living truth into décor — something to cross-stitch rather than to live by. In this sermon, Dr. Frank Walker recovers the radical claim these verses actually make, showing us that their three commands and one promise find their perfect fulfillment not in our striving but in Jesus Christ himself.

The Life I Now Live

Welcome to the Preached Word. Galatians 2:20 is one of those rare verses that dismantles everything we assume about ourselves and rebuilds it entirely on the person and work of Jesus Christ — his death, his resurrection, his love, and his indwelling life by the Spirit. In this sermon, Dr. Frank Walker walks us through Paul's compressed, almost breathless confession of what it means to be crucified with Christ and yet be truly, newly alive.
