The Spiritual Discipline of Encouragement. Acts 20:1-2. 5/17/2026

Worth Resurrecting. Acts 20:7-12. 05/24/2026

This sermon examines the story of Eutychus from Acts 20:7-12, moving beyond the humorous surface of a young man falling asleep during Paul's lengthy sermon to reveal deeper spiritual truths. The message emphasizes the importance of commitment, wise decision-making, and utilizing the wisdom of fellow believers. Through examining biblical resurrections—Elijah's widow's son, Elisha's generous host's child, and Tabitha (Dorcas)—the sermon identifies what God deems "worth resurrecting": faith and trust in His provision, generosity without expectation, and acts of service and charity. The pastor challenges the congregation to examine their spiritual lives, asking what areas need resurrection—whether commitment to God's house, generosity, service, or trust in God's provision. The sermon concludes with a call to stay spiritually awake, like the disciples at the Transfiguration, so we can witness God's glory and receive His revelation.

The Spiritual Discipline of Encouragement. Acts 20:1-2. 5/17/2026

This sermon explores the biblical command and spiritual discipline of encouragement, drawing from Acts 20:1-2 and the story of Elijah in 1 Kings 19. The pastor emphasizes that encouragement is not merely giving compliments or praise, but rather a deliberate act of depositing courage into others and changing perspectives during difficult times. Biblical encouragement offers a plan for overcoming obstacles and helps believers attack the future with faith rather than fear. The message challenges listeners to examine how they encourage others, how they speak to themselves, and whether they are living with correct facts based on God's truth or incorrect information based on feelings and lies. The sermon calls believers to practice encouragement as a spiritual discipline, just as they practice prayer and confession, recognizing that God commands His people to encourage one another and themselves.

Mother full of Faith. May 10, 2026

This message honors mothers by highlighting the transformative power of maternal faith through biblical and historical examples. The pastor emphasizes that mothers filled with faith are those who believe in God's promises even when they do not yet see them manifested. Through the stories of Sarah, Deborah, and Mary, the sermon illustrates how a mother's faithfulness can impact not only her immediate family but also entire nations and future generations. The message challenges mothers to know God's Word deeply so that they may stand firmly upon His promises—especially during times of waiting, suffering, or uncertainty. Maternal faith possesses the power to break generational curses and establish spiritual pathways that point toward the Kingdom of God.

True Concept of God

This sermon challenges believers to examine their understanding and concept of God, emphasizing that our perception of God directly shapes how we live. The speaker shares powerful testimonies from the mission field about God's faithfulness in answering prayer, particularly regarding drought and provision. The central message is that many problems in society and the church stem from an incorrect or diminished concept of God's holiness, power, and faithfulness. When we truly understand who God is—His omnipotence, omniscience, and loving nature—we become transformed to reflect His character. The sermon calls for repentance from false concepts, a return to holiness, and childlike faith that believes God can do the impossible. Our concept of God must be formed not by human reasoning but by Holy Spirit revelation through Scripture, tradition, and personal experience with His faithfulness.

Remember. Acts 19:23-26. 4/26/2026

This sermon addresses the critical importance of relying on God's wisdom rather than our personal judgment when making life decisions. Using Acts 19:23-26 as the foundation, the pastor warns against the trap the Ephesians fell into—allowing personal interests, comfort, and cultural pressure to override biblical truth. The message emphasizes that even after experiencing God's deliverance and blessing, we remain vulnerable to the enemy's attacks and our own tendency to forget God's faithfulness. The sermon calls believers to practice the spiritual discipline of remembering God's works, applying practical biblical wisdom to daily life, and passing on testimonies of God's faithfulness to the next generation. It challenges the congregation to examine whether they're building their lives on God's foundation or their own understanding, especially during times of crisis and uncertainty.
