Government on SermonAudio

US government schools are failing. There's been a 24-point drop in math skills since 2009, and a 14-point drop in reading skills just since 2018. Why? According to a recent study, it is not a failure of academics – the real issue is student behavior. Chaos and violence in the classroom is an everyday occurrence that makes teachers' jobs "almost impossible." Kevin Swanson and Daniel Craig discuss w...

A Kenyan preacher, Paul Mackenzie, and 28 others have been convicted of murdering 190 children and one adult.

As with Jew/Gentile and master/slave relationships, male/female relationships among believers must also be defined and governed by the realities of the new creation inaugurated with Jesus' resurrection.

This is a very significant day in the life of our congregation together. Perhaps the most significant day came way back in 2009, seventeen years ago, when we gathered for worship as a church for the very first time. That was the day we were established. Another significant day was in April 2016, when we became a particular church, one recognized by the presbytery as self-governing through its own...

We are called to worship God in spirit and in truth (John 4:24), but what does that mean? In this next lesson, we consider what it means to worship in truth. Since truth is found in God's Word, worshipping in truth means that our worship will be governed by the Word, and saturated with the Word.

This sermon examines the theological distinction between dispensationalism and covenant theology, arguing that the core disagreement lies in hermeneutics rather than specific eschatological details.

An exposition of 1 Timothy 3:4–7 examining three of the apostolic qualifications for elders in the local church: domestic faithfulness, experience in the faith, and a credible testimony among outsiders.

Main points:...

Daniel who realized that the prophet Jeremiah had been the last prophet in the area of Judea under king Zedekiah warned h...

1 Timothy 3:3

Believing That Is Becoming 1 Corinthians 2–3 | Jeremiah 32:38–40 This message emphasizes that genuine faith in Jesus is more than believing something about Him; it is a believing that is continually becoming more like Him. Our believing affects our behavior, and our behavior reveals whether we're being led by the Spirit of God or governed by the desires of our flesh. Paul confronted the believers...

Has modern Christianity created a version of God who never gets angry with His own children? In an age when biblical masculinity, fatherly authority, and accountability are increasingly under attack, even our understanding of God's character has been distorted. Modern psychology and feminism have helped undermine the biblical role of fathers, while popular religious teaching often portrays God as...

What was the sin of Nadab and Abihu, and what does their shocking judgment teach us about worship, obedience, and the holiness of God today? In Leviticus 10:1–3, we read how these two priests offered "strange fire" before the LORD—something "which he commanded them not." Their tragic account provides a sobering warning about the danger of approaching God according to human preferences rather than...

Yet Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself. His decision illustrat...
