The Man Believed the Word (7 Miracles of Jesus Christ)

What happens when your faith is pushed to its absolute limit? In this episode of The Pulpit Ministry, we dive deep into the Gospel of John, chapter 4, verses 46-54, to examine the profound miracle of Jesus healing the royal official’s son. Imagine traveling a day’s journey in absolute desperation, begging a local teacher to save your dying child, only to be told: "Go thy way; thy son liveth." No grand gestures. No physical touch. Just a word spoken from twenty miles away. What We’ll Explore Today: * The Progression of Faith: How the official moved from a desperate "crisis faith" to a resolute "word-centered faith." * The Power of the Spoken Word: Understanding that Jesus’ authority is never limited by geography, distance, or our physical sight. * The Household Effect: How one man’s willingness to take Jesus at His word transformed an entire family's eternity. Whether you are currently walking through a season of waiting, battling doubt, or needing a reminder that God hears you even when He feels distant, this sermon will challenge you to step out in radical obedience. Jesus doesn’t need to be physically present to change your reality—He only needs to speak. Scripture: John 4:46-53

The Elder (II John Series Message)

In a world obsessed with the new, the fast, and the next, the church faces a silent crisis: the silencing of its greatest treasury. In this episode of The Pulpit Ministry, we are turning our attention—and our ears—to the back pews and the front lines of faith. We are talking about the Elders. True "Elder-hood" isn't just a title on a church board, and it isn't merely about the number of candles on a birthday cake. It is the sacred intersection of chronological age and spiritual maturity. These are the men and women who have weathered the storms of life, walked through the valleys of doubt, and emerged with a tested, resilient faith. "An altar built by a seasoned hand stands firmer against the winds of culture." Join us as we unpack why the modern church needs to stop and listen to what the Elders have to say. We’ll discuss: * The difference between just growing old and growing mature in Christ. * How the generational gap is weakening our spiritual foundations. * Practical ways younger believers can actively seek out and honor the wisdom of our spiritual fathers and mothers. It’s time to bridge the gap. Turn the volume up, open your heart, and let’s listen to the voices that have gone before us. Scripture Passage:  II John 1:1-13

America Needs Preachers

America is not ultimately in need of better politics, more programs, or greater entertainment. America needs preachers. In this episode of The Pulpit Ministry, we examine the biblical necessity of God-called preaching from Romans 10:14-15. What is a preacher? Why does God still use preaching to reach the lost? What qualifications and responsibilities does Scripture place upon those who stand behind the pulpit? We will consider: • Why preachers must preach Christ above all else • The necessity of a divine call and sending • The importance of sound doctrine and biblical training • The responsibility to declare the whole counsel of God • The fervency and boldness that should characterize biblical preaching From Elijah to John the Baptist, from Jeremiah to the Apostle Paul, God has always used faithful men to proclaim His truth. May God raise up a new generation of preachers who will speak with certainty, clarity, and urgency in these challenging days. Scripture: Romans 10:14-15

What Makes Giving Better Than Receiving?

From Acts 20:35, we explore the words of the Lord Jesus: “It is more blessed to give than to receive.” What does Biblical giving really look like? As Paul prepared to depart from the Ephesian elders, he reminded them to watch over the flock, stand upon God’s Word, support the weak, and live lives marked by Gospel compassion. This message explores: • Why giving is more than money • How the Gospel and compassion work together • Why Christians should labor honestly and generously • What it means to support the weak • How giving becomes a way of life for the believer A healthy church is not built merely on activity or noise, but on truth, compassion, generosity, and mutual care. Scriptures include: Acts 20 Matthew 9:36 Find one person. Meet one need. Give something they cannot repay. All in the name of Jesus Christ and for His glory.

He Gave Him Tithes of All | Genesis 14:20 | Honoring the Most High God

Why did Abram give tithes after the battle? In this message from Genesis 14, we examine Abram’s encounter with Melchizedek, the king of Salem, and the powerful truth behind the first recorded tithe in Scripture. Long before the Law of Moses, Abram honored the LORD because he recognized that the victory had come from God. This message explores: • Why tithing begins with God, not money • The difference between honoring God and serving gain • What Abram’s refusal of Sodom reveals about the heart • How our treasure reveals what is “most high” in our lives Tithing is not about God needing our money. It is about honoring the Most High God who gives the victory, provides daily grace, and is worthy of our worship. Scriptures include: Genesis 14 Matthew 6:21
