Fountains & Wells - Sam Harper

A Bridled Tongue - Damon Davis

In this sermon, the message comes from James 1 and James 3, where Scripture deals plainly with the power of the tongue. James teaches that if a man seems religious but cannot bridle his tongue, his religion is vain. The sermon challenges the idea that worship can be separated from speech, reminding us that what comes out of the mouth reveals what is happening in the heart. True religion is not just seen in outward appearance, church attendance, or spiritual language, but in a life that is governed by God, including the words we speak. The message also looks at how James compares the tongue to a bit in a horse’s mouth, a small helm on a ship, and a little fire that can set much ablaze. Though the tongue is small, it has the power to steer direction, cause damage, bless God, or wound people made in the image of God. This sermon reminds us that even joking words can offend and injure when they are not brought under the control of the Spirit. Out of the same mouth should not come both blessing and cursing, and God calls His people to let their speech reflect a pure and undefiled faith.

Breaking False Covenants - Damon Davis

In this sermon, the message comes from Exodus 34, where God makes covenant with His people and warns them not to enter into covenant with the inhabitants of the land. The Lord declares that His name is Jealous, revealing that His jealousy is not insecurity or envy like we often think of in human terms, but His holy refusal to share His people with any rival. He is zealous over the covenant He has made, and He calls His people to destroy every altar, break every image, and remove every snare that would pull their hearts away from Him. The sermon reminds us that what we come into agreement with can become a covenant in our lives. God does not want His people joined to disease, depression, anxiety, doubt, or anything that sets itself up as a rival to His promise. Where sickness tries to speak, He offers healing. Where depression tries to rule, He brings joy. Where anxiety rises, He gives peace. Where doubt takes hold, He calls us back to faith. Through passages like Psalm 115 and Psalm 135, the message shows the danger of trusting in lifeless idols and reminds us that we become like what we worship. God’s jealousy is His passionate love calling us away from every false covenant and back into full devotion to Him.

Whereas I Was Blind, Now I See - Damon Davis

In this sermon, the message comes from John 9 and the story of the man who was blind from birth. When the disciples saw his condition, they immediately tried to assign blame, asking whether his blindness was caused by his sin or his parents’ sin. But Jesus revealed a greater purpose: this man’s condition would become a place where the works of God would be made manifest. The sermon reminds us that some things we have walked through may not have been for our destruction, but so God could receive glory through our encounter with Him. The message also points to the way Jesus healed the man, using clay made from the dirt and sending him to wash in the pool of Siloam. Not every encounter with Jesus is clean, polished, or sanitary. Sometimes healing involves mud, process, obedience, and a willingness to go wash. This sermon reminds us that Jesus is not afraid of our mud moments. He will meet us in the dirt, bring us out of the miry clay, set our feet upon a rock, and give us a testimony that says, “Whereas I was blind, now I see.”

The Death of Self - Damon Davis

In this sermon, the message looks at the words of Jesus in Matthew 16:24-26, where He calls His disciples to deny themselves, take up their cross, and follow Him. While the phrase “my cross to bear” is often used today to describe a hardship or burden someone has to live with, this sermon points back to what those words would have meant when Jesus first spoke them. A cross was not a symbol of inconvenience or struggle. It was a sign of death, surrender, shame, and the complete end of self-rule. The sermon challenges us to see that Jesus was not simply calling His followers to endure difficulty, but to let the self-life be crucified. The part of us that fights to preserve itself, live on its own terms, and demand its own way is the part that must be denied. Through Matthew 16 and Luke 9, the message reminds us that following Jesus means losing the life we tried to save, so that we may truly find life in Him. Taking up the cross daily is the declaration that our old demands no longer rule us, and that we now belong fully to Christ.

Shut Your Pine Hole Lip - Damon Davis

In this sermon, the message centers on the command of Psalm 46:10: “Be still, and know that I am God.” In a world filled with confusion, constant noise, social media, opinions, fear, and endless voices, the believer must learn that not every voice deserves attention. Just as Jesus stood in the storm in Mark 4 and spoke, “Peace, be still,” there are times when the voices of fear, doubt, and confusion must be brought under the authority of Christ. The sermon reminds us that doubt speaking does not mean someone is not a believer. It simply means there is a voice that must be silenced. Through the power of God, we are called to cast down imaginations, pull down strongholds, and bring every thought into obedience to Christ. Some voices are not meant to be reasoned with, entertained, or allowed to keep speaking. By the authority God has given us, we can declare peace, put a muzzle on fear, and be still in the knowledge that He is God.
