Not One, Not Two, But Three Witnesses

Sernon on 7/12/2026 by Pastor Todd Sapp  What happens when the truth makes us uncomfortable? In this powerful sermon on 1 John 5:6-12, we step into a spiritual courtroom to look at the three undeniable witnesses God has given us: the Water (Jesus' baptism), the Blood (Jesus' crucifixion), and the Holy Spirit. If you are struggling with doubt, trying to earn your salvation, or looking for real meaning, this message is a reminder that eternal life is a present possession and a free gift. You don't have to pretend your way into faith—you can bring your honest doubts to God today. #FirstJohn #BibleStudy #ChristianSermon #EternalLife #Gospel Truth #JesusChrist #HolySpirit #AbundantLife #FaithAndDoubt #Salvation Music used with Permission through our CCLI Copyright License Number #54024 and Streaming License Number #20133927  Find out more about Northwoods Church at www.nwctally.com

A Prayer For America

Sermon on 7/5/2026 by Pastor Todd Sapp  What happens when the pressures of leadership collide with absolute conviction? In this sermon, we dive into a powerful historical lesson from the First Continental Congress of 1774 and explore what God's Word says about our responsibility to pray for those in authority. In September 1774, as tensions rose between the British and the American colonies, 56 delegates gathered in Philadelphia. To build unity across different Christian denominations, Samuel Adams recommended Jacob Duché, the rector of Christ Church, to lead the very first session in prayer. His powerful words moved the room to tears—yet just a few years later, under intense pressure and imprisonment by the British, Duché faltered. This forgotten piece of American history teaches us a critical lesson: any person in leadership—whether in government, the church, a business, or a family—is under immense pressure to compromise. That is why the Apostle Paul’s charge in 1 Timothy 2:1-7 is so vital for us today. Join us as we break down what it truly means to pray for all people, how to pray for leaders we disagree with, and why the ultimate goal of a peaceful and quiet life is the unstoppable proclamation of the Gospel. #FirstContinentalCongress #1Timothy2 #PrayForOurLeaders #JacobDuche #ChristianHistory #Sermon #BibleStudy #GeorgeWashington #PrayerForAmerica #GospelOfJesusChrist #FaithAndHistory #Intercession Music used with Permission through our CCLI Copyright License Number #54024 and Streaming License Number #20133927  Find out more about Northwoods Church at www.nwctally.com

Perfect Love And A Fearless Life

Sermon on 6/28/2026 by Pastor Todd Sapp What if the secret to living completely free from fear isn't about trying harder to be brave, but understanding how deeply you are loved? In this powerful sermon on 1 John 4:7-21, we dive into what it truly means that "God is love" and how His perfect love has the power to cast out all fear, anxiety, and dread from our lives. Through the incredible real-life stories of Corrie ten Boom—from her childhood fears to her miraculous ability to forgive a Nazi concentration camp guard—we learn that we don't have to live defensively. When you are securely rooted in the love of your Heavenly Father, you are finally free to stop self-protecting and start selflessly loving the people around you. If you are struggling with fear of the future, carrying bitterness, or wondering how to experience God’s presence in difficult seasons, this video will give you a fresh, biblical perspective on faith, forgiveness, and the transforming power of the Holy Spirit. 📖 What You'll Learn in This Video: * The Source of Love: Why true, sacrificial love is not natural to human behavior, but is an evidence of being reborn by God. * What "God is Love" Really Means: A look at how God's love perfectly intersects with His justice, sovereignty, and mercy (featuring insights from Charles Spurgeon). * The Meaning of Propitiation: How Jesus satisfies holy justice to bring us absolute forgiveness. * Knowing vs. Believing: How to trust God's love during painful or uncertain seasons of life when you can't "feel" it experientially. * The Ultimate Test of Faith: Why our love for the invisible God is directly proven by how we treat the visible people around us. #1John4 #CorrieTenBoom #GodIsLove #OvercomingFear #ChristianSermon #BiblicalForgiveness #PerfectLove #FaithOverFear #BibleStudy #SermonOnline Music used with Permission through our CCLI Copyright License Number #54024 and Streaming License Number #20133927 Find out more about Northwoods Church at www.nwctally.com

Learn To Discern

Sermon on 6/21/2026 by Pastor Todd Sapp How do you know what is true in a world filled with confusion and competing voices? In this Father’s Day sermon, we dive into 1 John 4:1-6 to discover biblical keys to spiritual discernment. Using the shocking real-life story of Tanya Head and the 9/11 survivor network, we look at how easily people can be manipulated when they lack discernment. Apostle John warns us that "many false prophets have gone out into the world," but the good news is that God has not left us empty-handed. Learn how to test the spirits, recognize modern false teachings (like the prosperity gospel, progressive Christianity, and hyper-grace), and rely on the Holy Spirit dwelling inside you to anchor your life in the truth of God's Word. #SpiritualDiscernment #1John4 #FalseTeachers #BibleStudy #ChristianSermon #TestingTheSpirits #GodsWord #NorthwoodsChurch #ProgressiveChristianity #ProsperityGospel #HolySpirit #BiblicalTruth Music used with Permission through our CCLI Copyright License Number #54024 and Streaming License Number #20133927 Find out more about Northwoods Church at www.nwctally.com
