Purely because everything that has been prophesied has come true…it has happened exactly as God said it would happen! In today’s message, Pastor Mark will show you that as a Christian, there should be NO doubt in your mind that the...

The enemy of your soul is constantly trying to distract you and lead you as far away from God as he can. Thankfully, the devil also knows the power that lives inside of you.

In today’s message, Pastor Mark will encourage you to be aware of the devil's doings, but also be aware...

Going where God calls and doing what God says, and being who God wants us to be, is hard. It’s not easy to do the right thing ten times out of ten. Especially while fighting our human nature. In today’s message, Pastor Mark will remind you that when you truly love God, obeying Him and His commands will come easily! When you love the Lord and recognize Him as the Lord in your life, obedience comes...

A lot of times in life, all we care about is our rights and what we can get or have. The Bible shows us that that is not the Christian way. God’s way is giving over receiving and serving over being served every single time. We’re called to put others before ourselves just as we saw Jesus do! In today’s message, Pastor Mark will invite you to start today by putting others before yourself! Learn to...

Today, Pastor Mark will be reminding you that the enemy is very active in this world, and unfortunately, very active in the church.

As Pastor Mark continues his teaching series through the book of 1 Thessalonians, he’ll be explaining the difference between loving the idea of Jesus and having an intimate relationship with Him.

Today, Pastor Mark will be challenging you to be bold for the Lord, because what you're proclaiming to the world is the truth, and it’s the only truth that can set humanity free.

Do you ever find yourself waiting? Perhaps you’ve had to sit around for an oil change. What about at the doctor’s office? Maybe you sent an important email that left you anticipating a response.

In today’s message, Pastor Mark explains what it means to be waiting on the...

John 3:16 is one of the most quoted and loved verses in the bible. “For God so loved the world that He gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him…” …Whoever. That means your neighbor, prisoners, the opposing political party, and even you. Whoever believes in Him will be saved. Jesus set the foundation for today’s message when He died on the cross. Today, Pastor Mark teaches that God w...

Do you have any favorite clothing or food brands? If so, the company likely used some celebrity to showcase why their product is great.

Today, Pastor Mark will teach that you ought to be a good example for Christ. Preaching the Gospel...

The world is enamored with this idea of rebuilding from the rubble. Think about it. You’ve likely heard a song with the lyric, “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.” You’ve likely seen a movie where the main character loses everything but comes back stronger than before. The world is fascinated by endurance. In today’s message, Pastor Mark encourages you to stay diligent, stay strong, and sta...

The study of cultures is integral to a successful mission trip. Missionaries must be aware of the stumbling blocks within a culture. For instance, a missionary to an Asian culture should expect to take their shoes off when visiting someone’s home, even if they are used to tracking mud through their own house. In today’s message, Pastor Mark will teach you the importance of worshipping God without...

Have you ever ridden on a train? If so, you know how powerful they are. Around 1 billion people each day use a train. They are crucial to global economies and have a major impact on our history.

What is election? An easy example happens every four years. Election is when someone is chosen, right? In the Christian faith, God has elected His believers – that is, they’ve been chosen to spend eternity with Him. This concept can cause a lot of tension and confusion, but today, Pastor Mark will walk you through it. As you listen, Pastor Mark will teach that election is evidenced by the fruits o...

People often say that they will get into heaven based on their good deeds. “I’m a nice person.” “I give to the poor.” “I volunteer at a food bank.” Works are great, but there’s more to getting to heaven than just simply being a good person and volunteering some of your time and energy. It takes faith. Faith and works go hand in hand, and today, Pastor Mark will teach you that it is a balancing act...

If you’re a parent, you know that when your kids are young, they hate getting clean. All they want to do is play and have fun, but what you’re concerned with is how they look, how they act, and how they continue to grow. And sometimes, that’s how people act in Christ, like little kids not wanting to clean or grow up. Today, Pastor Mark encourages you to grow in Christ by not resisting His guidance...

Many people believe that they can say the right words at the right time and truly think they are saved in Christ. But the reality is that while God does save those who sincerely come to Him, He designed us to be in a relationship with Him. He wishes to walk with us throughout our lives and love us deeply. In today’s message, Pastor Mark emphasizes that when we come to Jesus with all our hearts and...

Oftentimes, when we go through trials and hardships, we think, “Why me, God? Is there a point to this pain?” But what you might forget is that as a follower of Christ, you will be hated, not just by the world, but also by the enemy who seeks to delay God’s plans. That’s why God needs His family sharpened and ready for anything. Today, Pastor Mark urges you to understand that there will be seasons...

Many times, we can be tempted to go along with what the world says, even when we know God’s Word teaches otherwise. It may seem easier in the moment to stay quiet or avoid difficult conversations, but compromise never leads people closer to Christ. That’s why now more than ever, people need the light in a world of darkness. In today’s message, Pastor Mark reminds us to stand firm in the truth of G...

When we look at what life was like a hundred years ago, and what life is like now, you can see just how backwards this world really is. And oftentimes, it can feel easier to just conform and accept than it is to share the Word of God, even at the cost of sounding judgmental. If push came to shove, would you stand up for Christ? In today’s message, Pastor Mark wants you to know that there’s nothing...

In our lives, when we see a loved one heading down the wrong path, it can be tempting to stay silent and hope they figure things out on their own. But real love doesn't ignore the truth. Real love is willing to speak with grace, pointing others back to God's Word even when the conversation is difficult. In today’s message, Pastor Mark reminds us that if we want to understand what biblical love and...

Many times, when we see someone making poor choices or walking down the wrong path, we hesitate to say anything. We worry that we'll come across as harsh or judgmental. But before we speak, we should examine our hearts and ask ourselves: Am I speaking from pride, or from genuine love and concern for them? Today, Pastor Mark reminds you that lovingly speaking the truth is not the same as condemning...

When you have kids, you know that as they grow, it’s not just physically, but mentally too. When they’re just toddlers, they don’t have a lot of responsibilities, but as they grow, they need to learn how to function and become responsible. That’s how it is when people become Christians, too. They need to learn to grow up. In today’s message, Pastor Mark encourages you to develop good spiritual hab...

When we fall into sin, we think we’re the only ones who can get us out. But the reality is that God doesn’t want us to only rely on ourselves, but to seek Him through all of our lives. The Bible tells us to lean not on our own understanding but to trust in the Lord with all of our heart. This is the first step to being free from the world. In today’s message, Pastor Mark encourages us to seek Jesu...

We live in a world where we can’t always control what happens to us. Some days are filled with joy, while others bring pain, disappointment, and hardship. And when we allow those experiences to shape our outlook on life, they can also affect our walk with God and the way we treat others within the body of Christ. In today’s message, Pastor Mark encourages us to forgive those who have wronged us an...
