Thou shalt not steal. This may be the most broken commandment in our culture today.

God’s laws, God’s commandments, protect us from anything that may harm us. Pastor Cameron Cloud shares three key truths from the seventh commandment, Exodus 20:14.

The sabbath is a holy day, a day for offering praises to God, a day of rest. Pastor Cameron Cloud shares truths about rest from the fourth commandment in Exodus 20:8-11. We are to enjoy the Lord’s Day, enjoy the blessedness that He gives to us, and enjoy the rest!

The sixth commandment, thou shalt not kill, is a powerful and convicting commandment. Pastor Cameron Cloud shares from Exodus 20:13; Matthew 5:21-24 and Ephesians 4:32 how this commandment has to do with more than the exterior, it has to do with the interior, the heart.

Is God your One and Only? We need to be continually reminded of the first commandment because we are continually tempted and drawn toward other gods.

Jesus Christ was numbered with the transgressors and died with the unrighteous. Pastor Cameron Cloud shares from Luke 23:32-43 looking at the people with whom Christ died. There are three crosses and each one of them reminds us of some great truth. Which side of the cross are you on?

It is the responsibility of every believer to pass the faith to the next generation; to make certain that the next generation knows God and the faith, the trust in Christ, is in them. Pastor Cameron Cloud shares from Deuteronomy 6:1-12 the process of teaching the next generation this faith. They must see it in us as we saw it in the generation before us.

In every church there's wheat and there are tares; there is true and there is false; there are saved and there are lost. Pastor Tom Wagoner shares from Matthew 13:24-30 three thoughts from a parable of Jesus.

There is something about the truth of Jesus that calms our souls in times of desperate need. Pastor Dan Frost shares two things from Matthew 11:28-30 that are helpful to everyone as we consider the Savior who is calling us to Himself. Christ offers rest to all who will come to Him, and that rest is found in Him alone.

The Bible is God’s gift to us for what we need. It is God speaking to us. Pastor Cameron Cloud shares from 1 Thessalonians 2:13. In this verse, Paul gives three reasons why we should receive the Word of God. We can have complete and absolute confidence that the Bible is God’s Word, and it is alive and active.

Continuing to look at the basis of our confident faith, we see how God has revealed Himself through creation. Pastor Cameron Cloud shares four basic things from Romans 1:18-20. These verses tell us about God speaking through creation. The God that spoke all the universe into existence cares enough to speak to us personally because He loves us and wants to draw us into a relationship with Him.

God has clearly revealed Himself to this world through creation, His Word, and His Son, Jesus Christ. Can we have confidence in God, and what He has done, and in the salvation that He gives to us?

Our youth are increasingly confronted by the command to bow down to the ways of this world.

Listen to ways we will equip our students who refuse to bow.

As Believers, God wants us to grow spiritually. This is called discipleship. Pastor James Neal shares from 2 Timothy 3:16-17, the function and the purpose of the Bible and how important it is in our personal discipleship as well as our discipleship with others. Studying the Bible facilitates our growth, and it allows us to grow closer to Him and to each other, expanding our borders.

The big plan for God to expand our borders includes children. Children are important to God, and they are important to us. Listen as Pastor Jeremy Autry shares truths from Psalm 78:1-8. All Christians are called to minister to children.
