An in-depth study of Mark 5.

Encountering Jesus changes lives from the inside out. He calls anyone to follow him, but it doesn’t come without sacrifice. He came to us, He sees us, and we are found by Him. Will you follow?

An In-depth study of 1 Kings 3.

Did you ever try running away from home as a kid hoping your parents would beg you to come back home? In Revelation 2, Jesus calls the Ephesian church to “Come back home!” Why? What were they doing wrong? Jesus commends them for all the things they’re doing well, but He says there is one thing they lack–love. It’s possible to do a lot of things for God but not be in love with God. In today’s message, Pastor Austin challenges us to avoid cold, mechanical religion and to fall more in love with Jesus.

An in-depth study of 1 Kings 2.

For the Christian there is a battle within—a battle between our spirit that wants to please the Lord, and our flesh that wants to please self. In Romans 8, Paul gives us three encouraging ways that the Holy Spirit helps us to fight the battle of the flesh and spirit: He empowers us, adopts us, and prays for us. Pastor Gary explains all this in today’s teaching, “Winning the War Within.”

In Romans 8, Paul opens and closes the chapter with two important exhortations: (1) There is no condemnation and (2) There is no separation from the love of God for those who are in Christ Jesus. Too many Christians still walk around under the heavy weight of condemnation, shame, and guilt. In addition, some Christians believe the lie that God doesn't really love them. In this study, Pastor Gary exposes the lies we believe from either Satan, others, or ourselves. Follow along in today's study entitled, "No Condemnation, No Separation."

Easter 2024 Service

Join us for our annual Passover service!

In Luke 19, Jesus sent two of His disciples to retrieve the young donkey on which He would ride for His triumphal entry into Jerusalem preceding His crucifixion. When the owners inquired as to why the disciples were taking their donkey, the disciples were to respond, "Because the Lord has need of it." The owners immediately and graciously complied. In this special Palm Sunday message from guest speaker Dr. Mark Rutland, we learn that we too can give and receive spontaneous grace, "because the Lord has need of it."

An in-depth study of 2 Samuel 23-24.

Since Christians are under grace instead of the law, the question becomes—is the law of God pointless now? Some Christians think that! But Paul says otherwise. In Romans 7, Paul gives us three reasons why God’s law is important in the life of the Believer today. Pastor Gary unpacks Romans 7 and also helps us to understand the battle that lies within between wanting to please God and wanting to live for our own sinful pleasures.

An in-depth Bible study of 2 Samuel 21-22.

The Christian life will have its share of temptations. That’s because when a person trusts Christ as Lord and Savior, his or her spirit is regenerated but not the flesh. The flesh is constantly at war with the spirit so that the spirit wants to please God, but the flesh wants to please self. In Romans 6-8, Paul gives us a few directives about how to get victory over sin and temptation.

An in-depth study of Psalms 46.

When Adam and Eve sinned against God in the Garden of Eden by eating from the one tree that God had warned them not to eat, the human race became tainted. The genetic code of the human soul became permanently altered, and thus all of the descendants of Adam inherited the same sinful nature. That’s why Paul says in Romans 3:23 that “all have sinned”, and why David said in Psalm 51:5 that he was sinful from conception. But in Romans 5, Paul teaches us that what the first Adam ruined in the Garden, the “last Adam” (Jesus) redeemed on the cross! Paul contrasts the two lives of Adam and Jesus to help us understand that Jesus came as a cure to the sin problem that we all have.

An in-depth study of Genesis 22.

How do we follow Christ in a culture that celebrates wickedness? Bishop E.W. Jackson challenges us to rely on God’s power as we seek to steward all that God has given us, trusting in Him as the Anchor for the soul.

An in-depth study of Exodus 15.
