What are you building your life on today? Is it the people and achievements and acquisitions of this life? Or is the finished and redeeming work of God proven in Jesus to overcome sin and death? Sermon by Pastor Tre

Jesus's disciples could not properly love their enemies without first ensuring their hearts were right. Without this foundation, they would be ineffective in sharing the Gospel, responding to attacks or slights with the "unclean water" of their own hearts. In this week's study of Luke's Gospel, Jesus uses natural events to teach His disciples a spiritual lesson about fruitful...

We often hear that the Bible says we should not judge, but is that actually, right? Does the Bible discourage judging other people? Also, how can we guard against being judgmental toward others? Find out what God's word says in this message from Pastor Tre.

Pastor Mike shares with powerful message.

In this week’s study of Luke, Jesus tells His disciples what they have signed up for by agreeing to follow Him. If they thought it was going to be easy following Jesus, boy were they wrong. The Kingdom in Paradox will challenge you and inspire you to live differently in this world as ambassadors of Christ.- Sermon by Pastor Tre

In this week’s study of Luke, Jesus prepares for a pivotal ministry decision by choosing twelve disciples to follow His model. The lessons we will learn challenges us to move beyond spiritual mediocrity and complacency toward the abundant, Spirit-filled life Christ intended. -Sermon by Pastor Tre

We are starting our study of Luke 6 this morning and in our Scripture we will find Jesus infuriating the Pharisees because of what He and His disciples were doing on the Sabbath. It is very difficult to talk about the Sabbath in modern-day America, even here in Oklahoma City, the buckle of the Bible Belt. The difficulty lies in the fact that the Sabbath, which is from sunset on Friday to sunset on...

The Bible tells us that our God is full of compassion, slow to anger, and abundant in mercy. That alone is enough reason to give Him praise! This week, we will see Jesus spending time with people who, by religious standards, were considered "sketchy"—those who didn't follow the rules or were seen as a blight on the community. The way Jesus responds to them serves as a conviction to a...

This week, we will examine the account of the paralytic and his friends. While this narrative demonstrates God’s power to heal and forgive, it also illustrates how we should respond to His power.  Sermon by Pastor Tre

Sermon from Pastor Tre: I've got six more words for you,"If You are willing, You can..." (Lk. 5:12 )Those six words speak to the struggle we all have with trusting in God's power and understanding God's plans. Honestly, sometimes God's ways just don't make sense, and thankfully His will doesn't depend on my understanding. However, if we will trust Him , we'll...

Six of the most transformative words you can ever speak are, "...nevertheless at Your word I will..." (Lk. 5:5) Sometimes God's ways just don't make sense, but if we will trust Him anyways, our lives will be changed forever. -Sermon from Pastor Tre

"...the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world. - 1 John 4:4 In this sermon we get to follow Jesus from Nazareth to Capernaum where He shows Himself mighty to save! -Sermon from Pastor Tre

Pastor Mike has prepared a powerful message to share with us from God's Word.

"Good morning BCC!This morning, we are jumping back into our study of Luke’s Gospel. Today we are in chapter four - The Temptation of Jesus. The writer of Hebrews reminds us,Hebrews 4:15–16 NKJV15 For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin.16 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we m...

Famed Jewish historian, Josephus, called Jesus  a wise man, if it be lawful to call him a man.” [1] Napoleon Bonaparte, French general and statesman during the French Revolutionary war,  boldly declared, “I know men, and I tell you that Jesus Christ is not a man.” [2] One of the great distinctives of the Christian faith is the teaching that the Creator of all things willingly clothed Himself in th...

 Last Sunday I shared with you the first of the four titles for the Messiah that we read about in Isaiah 9:6: Wonderful Counselor. I'm so excited to share with you the last of the four titles given to Jesus: the Prince of Peace. -Sermon from Pastor Mike

Isaiah was a prolific prophet in perilous times. He wrote 66 chapters that are filled with judgment, justice, love, and redemption. Throughout all 66 chapters, through the hard times as well as the seasons of peace and prosperity, there is a thread of hope in Isaiah. Some of the most vivid and awe-inspiring words of hope that have ever been written are found in the pages of Isaiah. His brilliant a...

Last week, we were introduced to John the Baptist's public ministry as the Word of God came to him in the wilderness. The way in which Luke records this event sounds like an insult to the political and religious leaders in power. The Word of God didn’t come to them, it came to the one who had humbled himself under God's mighty hand, resulting in a provocative call for repentance. I challenged you...

So, I noticed something this past week as I was preparing to share God’s Word with you today. From the beginning of our tag team teaching, Pastor Mike has mainly spent his time introducing us to John the Baptist and I have mainly focused on Jesus. For the past couple of weeks that’s changed and today, I have the honor of shifting the focus of my Biblical character to John. I find it rather appropr...

I've had such a wonderful time studying these verses and learning about the very first words Jesus ever spoke, in verse 49. Those first words not only set the framework for the rest of Jesus' life, but they also set the framework for all of us who are followers of Jesus. Sermon from Pastor Mike

 There's a man in our Scripture who we will never read about again in the Bible and yet what he had to say as he took Mary's baby in his arms is absolutely revolutionary!  Sermon from Pastor Mike

Sermon from Pastor Tre "I want to begin by reading our scripture for today’s message. Grab your Bibles and go with me to Luke chapter 2.  We’ll begin with verse fifteen."

If you were with us last week, you’ll remember how the sovereign hand of God was at work bringing about the timely birth of Jesus. In conjunction with the census issued by Caesar Augustus, the prophecy of  Micah 5:2  was fulfilled. Mary and Joseph ended up in Bethlehem where Christ was born. As I mentioned then, His arrival into our world challenges us to live sacrificially as we pursue Him, and i...

You’ve probably noticed the landscapers putting up the lights already. Retail stores are decking the halls with the latest gift ideas. Before too long, we’ll start to hear the familiar call for everyone to hang their stockings by the chimney with care. What call? Well, it’s the voice of Christmas, Mariah Carey singing “All I Want for Christmas is You” it’s the only way that we know the season has...

It had been a crazy nine months! The angel Gabriel had visited the old priest named Zechariah who was serving in the temple in Jerusalem. The angel said, “Do not be afraid, Zechariah; your prayer has been heard. Your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you are to call him John.” (Luke 1:13 NIV) Zechariah was speechless!
