Church at the Armory

The moon is not a source of light; it reflects the light of the sun. This sermon is about reflecting God’s light in a dark world. Drawn from 1 Peter 3 and Peter’s words to a suffering church, it presents a code of conduct for Christians living in dark times.

Wendell Miller, a former missionary and local church pastor, shares stories from his missionary journeys and an important lesson on The Art of Forgetting . This message is sure to encourage you and give you hope!

Epistemology is the branch of philosophy that studies knowledge. In simple terms, it asks: How do we know what we know? What is the source or foundation of our knowledge or beliefs. This message is meant to reaffirm our epistemological confidence in the Word of God as the thing we stand on for knowledge, wisdom and our worldview.

There are many titles given to the Messiah in the Old Testament: Mighty Warrior, Cornerstone, Branch, Son of Man, Redeemer, and Deliverer, to name just a few. But have you ever considered one of the more obscure titles given to Him: the Tent Peg? This message explores that powerful and often-overlooked image. I also highly recommend the book Gospel of the Skull Crusher by Joel Richardson, which I...

When death comes to those we love, we have “more than a memory”, we have a hope. This message is about that hope: the resurrection of the dead, because He was resurrected from the dead, what Paul calls “a fact.”

This message examines the four covenants given to Israel in the Old Testament, the fourth of which is the New Covenant. It explores the New Covenant in a way you may not have considered before.

This message asks a simple yet profound question: Who is the aggressor, the Church, or the “gates of hell”? The classic discourse of Matthew 16 is approached with a fresh perspective.

This sermon from Pastor Andrew Runnels focuses on what we are to do when we are between the promise and fulfillment. Using David’s life as a lesson, we can see that the journey to receiving fulfillment is not as simple as making things happen, but instead a commitment to repent when we stray from dependence on God.

This Christmas message explores the birth of Christ through the lens of His home town Nazareth. It’s more than just His history, it’s Bible prophesy hiding in plain sight.

Abram (Abraham) is known as the father of our faith. He believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness. But what exactly did he believe? Was it merely what God would do in his own future, or did he recognize how God was using him to fulfill a prophecy from the past? This sermon explores the true nature of Abraham’s faith and what it was ultimately all about.

This sermon walks us through the flood and the righteous line from Noah to Shem to Abram. Along the way, we see God establish a covenant, the first mention of a covenant in Scripture, and we continue tracing the seed line that will ultimately bring forth the One who will crush the serpent’s skull.

This sermon examines the firstborn children of Adam and Eve and what their story reveals about the righteous and unrighteous seed lines, the nature of sin, and how the apostle John used this account to instruct the early church.

“The practical vehicle for teaching, admonishing, and imparting wisdom is singing with a heart of gratitude. We see this beautifully illustrated in Jonah’s deliverance from the belly of the great fish, where he echoes the words of Psalm 42. This Thanksgiving season, sing with thankfulness in your heart!”

Two seed lines converge in an epic battle that transcends the moment. This is one of several points along the timeline where the seed of the serpent faces off against the seed of the woman, and loses. It’s the classic story of David and Goliath, perhaps in a way you’ve never heard it before.

From Genesis 3, we learn of two types: walkers and crawlers . God walks, man walks, and the serpent walks…until he doesn’t. Under the curse, the serpent is condemned to crawl. Throughout the rest of the biblical narrative, we continue to see these two types: the walkers and the crawlers, as the cosmic battle unfolds and God’s eternal plans and purposes are revealed. This message focuses on the cra...

Danny Rivers, an overseer in the church, shares a fresh perspective on the story of Jonah. His teaching offers practical application for our lives, not only through Jonah’s successes and failures, but even more importantly, through how God handled the situation.

There seems to be a common idea among the Christian community in the West that we should focus primarily on the New Testament, while the Old Testament is no longer valid or relevant for today. This message challenges that mindset and emphatically declares that we cannot fully understand the New Testament unless we view it through the lens of the Old Testament. This truth is powerfully illustrated...

In this final message of our verse-by-verse journey through the book of James , we explore James’ closing two instructions to the church. I’ve summarized them this way: Become vulnerable — share your life, both the good and the bad, with others. Support one another through accountability — hold each other up and willingly submit to mutual guidance.

Chester (Eddie) Passmore Jr. shares a profound word about finding strength from God and His Spirit in the midst of personal weakness. The well-known verse from Zechariah reminds us: “Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,” says the LORD Almighty. If you’re in a season of weakness, take a moment to listen, and be encouraged by this message.

James begins chapter five, his closing section, with a warning to the rich and instruction for the church to respond to the injustices of poverty and wealth without integrity. At the center of this discussion is one defining truth: “the Lord’s coming is near.” This marks the thirteenth installment in our verse-by-verse journey through the book of James.

Psalm 8 is a well-known passage of Scripture that raises one of the most profound philosophical questions about humanity: What is man, and why does the God of the universe think of him or care for him? This message reflects on Psalm 8 and the depth of this timeless question.

The well-known verse that says, “If anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn’t do it, it is sin for them.” is found in James chapter four. However, this verse may carry a deeper meaning than we often assume when we read it at face value, isolated from its context. This message explores the verse within its proper setting as we continue our journey through the book of James, studying...

Dr. Gladstone continues his teaching through these two chapters of Ephesians. Chapter four marks a shift from understanding who the Church is to what the Church must do in light of that identity. The session concludes with a time of Q&A.

Dr. Robert Gladstone teaches through Ephesians chapter three to illustrate the importance of understanding the identity of the Church and the strength that comes through weakness. This is an excellent commentary on these verses and will encourage any believer who has walked through seasons of weakness.
