Eureka Baptist Church Keysville Sermons

This sermon contrasts two “towers”: the Tower of Babel, which represents humanity’s prideful attempt to glorify self and resist God’s purposes, and God’s “strong tower,” where people find salvation and security in Christ. Pastor Matt argues that believers should reject self-promotion and rebellion, trust in Jesus rather than their own achievements, and join God’s mission of spreading the gospel to...

Pastor Matthew Homan gives a Mother's Day sermon in Titus 2 concerning older Christian women who are called to live as godly examples, avoid sins such as gossip and drunkenness, and intentionally disciple younger women in biblical womanhood.

First, those who abide in Jesus will have their desires transformed to align with God's will, meaning their prayers will reflect sanctified desires that advance His mission. Lastly, joy is the ultimate result of this abiding relationship, as Jesus imparts His own joy to believers both now an...

This sermon only got through the first sermon point: those who abide in Jesus, the true vine, will bear spiritual fruit. This fruit manifests as good works, including repentance, obedience, and a transformed life. The professing Christian that does not bear fruit ought to examine to see if he is truly saved.

Though Jesus will soon ascend to heaven, his work must continue through his disciples and today's Christians as we pray in the name of Jesus, obey his commandments, and rely on the Holy Spirit for guidance and empowerment. Just as a business must carry on after its founder steps away, the ministry of Jesus advances through believers who trust in his promises and labor for his kingdom until his ret...

In this sermon, Pastor Matt preaches about how Jesus comforts His troubled disciples by assuring them that He has prepared a place for them in the Father’s house, using the imagery of a bridegroom returning for his bride to emphasize the intimacy and permanence of their communion with God. He also declares that He alone is the way, the truth, and the life—offering exclusive access to the Father.

Though we are unworthy and unsuitable to bear the cross of Christ, Jesus alone was qualified to suffer for our sins, offering us the privilege of following Him in faith and sacrifice.

This sermon examines Judas Iscariot's betrayal of Jesus in John 13:18-30, highlighting how Jesus prepares His followers for betrayal and spiritual opposition.

Pastor Matt presents Jesus' final public appeal in John 12:44-50, urging belief in Him as the Light sent by the Father to save humanity from eternal darkness and judgment. It challenges listeners to respond with genuine faith and obedience, prioritizing love for Jesus above worldly comforts, as this faith leads to eternal life as the Bible has promised. **Note: Due to technical difficulties, the l...

Jesus removes himself from the people of Israel. We work through a difficult text about God hardening the hearts of those who have persistently rejected him and we consider if our hearts are hardened towards Jesus.

In Part 2, Jesus teaches us about the dignity of taking up our crosses, the defeat of Satan when we take up our crosses, and the foolishness of the cross to those who are in darkness. As we see Jesus endure towards the cross, we are challenged to endure.

In Part 1, Pastor Matt preaches through the distress of the cross. Even Jesus had a troubled spirit. Therefore there is such thing as a righteous distress and an unrighteous distress. The Christian is called to emulate Jesus in the midst of fear as he takes up his own cross.

This passage expands on the famous verse John 3:16 to further define Christian belief as a hatred, as a sacrifice of ourselves in order to follow Jesus.

The crowds and even Jesus' disciples misunderstood His entry into Jerusalem. Instead of being a political savior, Jesus came humbly on a donkey to conquer sin and death through the cross. This sermon warns us not to misunderstand Jesus.
