Memorial Baptist Church Jefferson City

From the beginning, God has been building a family—not just a people, but a household. Through Jesus, we’re not just saved—we’re adopted. In this message, Pastor Jimmy walks us through what it means to be “Familified”—grafted into the household of God through faith in Jesus, and called to live as brothers and sisters in a spiritual family. 🔥 In this message, Pastor Jimmy unpacks: ✅ How Jesus red...

A life that won’t fall apart is built day-by-day, moment-by-moment, on Jesus Christ, through the power of the Holy Spirit.   When Jesus finished His most famous teaching—the Sermon on the Mount—He didn’t end with a benediction or a blessing. He gave a warning: Will you build your life on His words, or just admire them?   🔥 In this message, Pastor David unpacks: ✅ Why Jesus is the only true found...

From childhood, we learn to hide our mistakes—but God calls us to bring them into the light. The Bible shows us that confession isn’t about shame—it’s about freedom, healing, and true life in Jesus. Confession is surrender leading to healing, freedom, worship—the way to true life.   🔥 In this message, Pastor David unpacks: ✅ Why confession is surrender, not punishment (Psalm 32:1-5) ✅ How hidin...

Suffering isn’t what God intended, but in His mercy, He meets us in our pain. When Jesus faced the weight of the cross, He turned to the Father in honest, lamenting prayer. His example teaches us how to bring our deepest emotions before God—without fear, without hiding, and without losing faith.   🔥 In this message, Pastor Jimmy unpacks: ✅ Why Jesus lamented in Gethsemane and how it models praye...

Our natural desires—hunger, rest, pleasure—are God-given, yet sin twists them into appetites that can lead us away from Him. We are either mastered by our desires or mastering them through Christ. 🔥 In this message, Pastor Nathan unpacks: ✅ Why our flesh is not inherently evil, but fallen (1 Cor. 10:1-14, Jer. 17:9) ✅ How Jesus' victory in the flesh changes how we handle temptation ✅ The dange...

What messages are shaping your soul? Every day, we are either being formed by the truth of Jesus or deceived by the lies of the enemy (The Devil). The messages we consume shape our hearts, minds, and actions.   🔥 In this message, Pastor David unpacks: ✅ How the enemy uses lies to distort truth (John 8:44) ✅ The spiritual battle for your mind and identity ✅ How Jesus stood against Satan’s lies...

🛑 What is shaping your soul—Jesus or Babylon? From Cain and Nimrod to the Tower of Babel and Babylon, Scripture reveals a powerful pattern: we are always being formed—either by the world (Babylon) or by Christ. 🔹 What does Babylon symbolize in the Bible? 🔹 How did Israel become like Babylon? 🔹 What does it mean that we are a city on a hill? 🔹 How does John 15 call us to abide in Jesus rather...
