FBC Mayfield

Have you ever considered why we exist? Although making disciples is a key aspect of our focus, it does not describe our ultimate goal. Join us for the second part of our missions statement as Pastor Paul teaches from Isaiah to establish the main thing as the main thing.

Who are we? Where are we going? What is our heartbeat? What initiatives describe our church? What guides and motivates our ministry? Have you ever wondered about the answers to these foundational questions? Join in as Pastor Paul delivers a sermon on the essential vision of FBC Mayfield drawn from Matthew 28.

Jesus was doing more than just traveling as he entered Jerusalem for the final time. He was making a statement to the crowd: I am King. 

In the sermon today, Pastor Paul explores two portraits of Christianity as exemplified through the stories of the Rich Young Ruler and Elisha. These stories will lead us to the challenging question: Are you following Jesus, or have you invited Jesus to follow you?

Galatians chapter 6 provides an example of how inward perspectives form outward actions. In Galatia, the Judaizers were allowing their flawed perspectives to shape their actions in ways contrary to the gospel. If unchecked, we have the potential to fall victim to the same pattern. We invite you to join Pastor Paul as he explores two specific perspectives that have the power to shape how we live ou...

One of the major issues affecting the churches of Galatia was disunity. In the text today, Paul provides a seemingly simple process to help unify the body of believers. However, Paul’s remedy is a very sensitive and delicate process that involves restoring brothers and sisters who are caught in sin. We invite you to listen in and learn how to best restore our brothers and sisters for the glory of...

Paul says we are free from the law, but what do we do with that freedom? Paul says we cannot satisfy the desires of our flesh, but rather we are to walk by the Spirit and grow in Christlikeness.

In Galatians 5, Paul challenges the churches of Galatia to see that it is possible to be set free but continue to live in bondage. In much of the same way, the church today struggles to live in the freedom Christ has secured, and like the world, we continue to experience anxiety, fear, guilt, depression, and weariness. So how do we as Christians gain freedom from this bondage? We encourage you to...

In this week’s passage from Galatians 4, the Apostle Paul provides a brilliant illustration using the story of Hagar and Sarah to help us clearly see the distinction between works of the flesh and faith in Christ. Join in to find out how Paul used this story to teach the churches of Galatia and discover ways that this story can guide us today.

In Galatians chapter 4, Paul uses strong language to confront us with hard truths. The text invites us to ask questions like, Are we in or out? Do we want to live by his word, or do we want to live by the ways of the world? Do our lives revolve around the things of the world, or do they revolve around his kingdom and glory? Join us as we seek to gain clarity on these challenging concepts.

Can we eat bacon? Is it permissible to get a tattoo? If salvation comes through faith, then what is the purpose of the law? If we have been set free from the law, does that mean we are no longer obligated to keep it? In today’s text, we will explore Galatians 3 and seek to discover the answers to these questions and many more.

We may have heard about the common belief of justification by faith alone, which Paul addresses throughout the book of Galatians. However, James argues that a person is justified by works and not faith alone. In today’s text, we explore the relationship between the teachings of Paul and James to discover ways to fight against two distinct opponents.

All Christians, even the most influential leaders, are susceptible to falling back into the old patterns of the flesh. These cracks, however small they may be, if unattended, can lead to catastrophic consequences. In the Scripture today, we will discover ways to prevent the cracks and walk according to our new nature in Christ.

What was your life like before Christ? What about your encounter with Christ? And how is your life different after Christ?

Federal agents are trained how to spot counterfeit dollar bills. How do we spot distortions to the gospel? And what are some common distortions that we see in our culture today?

As the new year is upon us, there will be many voices suggesting aims and goals in 2025. What are your resolutions? What will you invest in? What will be your point of focus? In 1 Timothy, Paul answers these questions to help us biblically align our aims.

As you reflect on 2024 and look forward to 2025, find comfort in God’s promises and taste his goodness when God is faithful to appoint affliction.

After thousands of years since the sin in the garden cursed humanity, the New Testament opens, alerting people that the promise of salvation has come. Jesus the Messiah is born! Come behold the wondrous mystery as we explore the intricacies of God’s plan and adore His promise delivered!

Though it seemed as if Israel’s sin might derail God‘s plan for salvation, God’s determination to save people from their sin was made even more clear.

Does it feel like God’s promises are slow to develop? The promise made to Israel took thousands of years to transpire. Yet, God gave his people assurances through the ages that he would be faithful to his promise. They just needed to be patient and continue to trust in him.

Jesus’s coming was the fulfillment of a promise made to Adam and Eve thousands of years prior, highlighting the faithfulness of God.

What is one important valuable you have lost? Remember how hard you searched for it? So also, James exhorts us to seek the lost and share the truth with them so that they might be saved.

It can be hard to be patient. So, what is the fuel that helps us persevere?

As Christians, how can we leverage our wealth for the kingdom of God?

How can we plan for the future, while not presuming we have ultimate control?
