Boone's Creek Baptist Church

As we resume our study of the Sermon on the Mount, we consider Jesus' teaching on giving, and how we can practice our righteousness in a way that is not hypocritical, but sure to earn the rewards and favor of God. 

We conclude our series on the genealogy of Jesus by looking at the last woman mentioned, Mary, and what her inclusion implies for all of us hoping for the fulfillment of God's promises through Jesus Christ. 

Many of us approach Christmas with appropriate joy mixed with grief for the loved ones that are newly, or long absent from our gatherings. Yet Christmas itself reminds us that our grief and our separation from our loved ones will not be permanent, since the very reason Jesus came was to defeat death and release us from it's bondage. 

We look at redemption through the lens of Ruth, and what her redemption reveals about the Savior that would ultimately come through her offspring. 

The first message in our Christmas series looking at the women of Jesus' genealogy as recorded in Matthew. This week, we look at the two most unlikely candidates to be included in Jesus' genealogy, Tamar and Rahab, and what their inclusion means for us. 

Jesus concludes this section of the Sermon on the Mount with perhaps his most difficult exposition of the Old Testament Law, loving your enemies, even when they take advantage of you and harm you. How can we put this instruction into practice today? Join us as we explain and apply this text together. 

Jesus' oft-referenced instructions regarding an eye-for-an-eye are regularly misunderstood. Join as we examine what Jesus truly expects of his followers regarding how they are to pursue, or not pursue, vengeance. 

What does Jesus tell his followers about taking oaths and keeping their word? Let's examine his words together!

Bro. Larry Braswell, the Boone's Creek Baptist Association AMS, delivers our homecoming message from Psalm 14. 

What does the Bible actually say about divorce? When is divorce permitted, and what hope does God offer to those that have experienced the pain of divorce? Join us as we consider Jesus' teaching on this painful subject from the Sermon on the Mount. 

Where does adultery begin? How can we do battle against lust in our porn-saturated culture? Does Jesus really want us to cut off our hands and pluck out our eyes?  All of this and more as we look at Jesus' teaching on adultery and lust from the Sermon on the Mount. 

What does it mean to commit murder? How does Jesus define a murderer? Join us as we explore his answers in our Sermon on the Mount series. 

What does it mean that Jesus has come to fulfill the law, and what then is the Christian's relationship to the law? Join us as we answer these questions from Jesus' Sermon on the Mount.

Pastor Tim Wade and Youth Director Chris Ratliff answer questions submitted by the BCBC youth, including: Do Catholics go to heaven? Do babies who die go to heaven? Can you go to heaven if you commit suicide? Who made God? What is happening in Matthew 27:52?  And others!

Today we consider Jesus' statements that his followers are the salt of the earth and the light of the world. What does this mean, and how can we live up to our Lord's expectations? 

Pastor Tim fields questions from Chris that have been submitted by the BCBC Youth. 

In our second sermon on persecution, we look at the ways which Jesus tells us to expect persecution and how we can support our brothers and sisters around the world who are experiencing persecution, even if we are not. 

One of the most shocking things Jesus says in his entire ministry is found in Matthew 5:10, Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake. How can persecution equate to blessing? How do we endure persecution when it arises? And what kind of reward is promised for those who endure it? 

Here we finish looking at the Peacemaking Beatitude by looking at ways in which we can very practically pursue peacemaking with principles derived from Peacemaker Ministries. 

Learn how to apply biblical peacemaking principles from the example of David's exchange with Saul.

Jesus says, "Blessed are the Peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God." What is peacemaking though? How does it differ from peace-faking and appeasement? What does it mean to be called sons of God? We explore these questions and more in our 8th sermon on the Beatitudes. 

Sermon number 7 in our series on the Sermon on the Mount. Today we consider the beatitude, "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God!" What does this promise mean, and how can we acquire this all-important heart purity? 

Sermon number 6 on the Sermon on the Mount, considering Jesus' statement that the merciful are blessed because they will receive mercy. What is mercy? How do we show mercy? And what is the result of showing mercy?

Youth Director Chris Ratliff preaches from John 3:36 on our expectations for obedience. 

The next in our Sermon on the Mount sermon series in which we explore the beatitude, "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied."
