Highland Gospel Mission

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in 1 Peter 4 today. God has promised us some great things in the end, but the things on earth can hold us back from all of that. Not only are we responsible to conduct ourselves in a Christlike manner for our own benefit, but also for the benefit of others. The world is watching, and our actions will either lead to...

Happy New Year everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.  We will be in James 2 today. Many believers have faith, but fail to apply it to their lives. We have a habit of acting like a Christian among other believers, yet beyond that, behave like the rest of the world. If we have faith, but don’t actively work to avoid sin, then what is the point of having faith? Our podca...

Merry Christmas everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.  We will be in Luke 3  today. John the Baptist was called before he was born to be the one to prepare the way of the Lord, and he did that by removing obstacles that would get in the way of the Gospel. We have that same responsibility to remove those obstacles to share Christ with the world. What obstacles do...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.  We will be in Matthew 7 today. Jesus teaches us about judging one another and treating one another with fairness, but our actions are critical of our foundation. If our character is built upon anything other than Jesus, it won’t last long, and will eventually fail. What foundation are you built upon? Our podcast is rebr...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Ephesians 6 today. Brother Kerry will be delivering a special message today since Pastor Keith is out of town. The armor of God is a great metaphor demonstrating how we ought to equip ourselves to defend against Satan, and the fallen world. Don’t forget to pray for one another, especially during these uncertain...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.  We will be in 1 John 2 today. We all need Jesus not only to cover our sins, but to help us to overcome our sin struggles. In that way, we are called to walk in the same manner as Jesus walked. Don’t forget to pray for one another, especially during these uncertain times.

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.  We will be in 1 Corinthians 3 today. As Christians, we have a responsibility to grow in Christ. A lot of people in the Church have just gone through the motions, fill a seat on Sunday, and live the rest of the week in the world. Paul is calling those people out to stop following people and start following in Christ. How...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.  We will be in 1 John 4 today. We live in a world of fake news and misinformation, and with that, the truth of God’s word often gets twisted to the point where it’s no longer the truth. Before accepting someone’s word, it’s important to make sure it is in line with what the Bible tells us. Don’t forget to pray for one an...

Welcome to a special episode of the Highland Southern Baptist Podcast that I’m calling “The Producer’s Rant”. This week, I am discussing some of the issues with politics in the Christian Church, and how it’s affecting our ability to share the Gospel message. My challenge to you is this. What ways can you include Jesus in some of those difficult conversations and situations? You can reach us at fac...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.  We will be in John 8 today. In this famous passage of scripture, we reflect on the adulterous woman who was about to be condemned for her sins. Jesus was quick to point out that everyone is a sinner, and we are all equally held accountable to God’s standards. He then eliminates this excuse by telling the woman to repent...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.  We will be in 1 John 1 today. Koinonia is the intimate fellowship with God, and with other followers of Christ. These relationships are important to keep us walking in the light and to stay out of the darkness. How is your relationship with one another? How is your relationship with God? Don’t forget to pray for one ano...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.  We will be in 1 Thessalonians 5 today. The enemy (Satan) is constantly laying traps for us to fall into, especially as our society trends further away from God. We need to be alert and sober not only to avoid those traps, but to also encourage and lift up those who are struggling. Don’t forget  to pray for one anot...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.  We will be in 1 Corinthians 15 today. The resurrection of Christ is something that is often taken for granted. We say that Christ rose from the dead, but do we really really understand what we are saying, or has it become a phrase that rolls off the tongue? Are we living our lives with the urgency to share the Gospel me...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.  We will be in Philippians 4 today. While times continue to get more and more difficult, the Church has struggled lately with being faithful. The Bible doesn’t guarantee us an easy life, so we encourage everyone to stand firm in the faith. Don’t forget  to pray for one another, especially during these uncertain time...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.  We will be in Romans 8 today. As Christians, we all have battle inside between the flesh and the Spirit. Our natural desire is to please the flesh and sin, but the spirit compels us to follow the law in obedience. Jesus followed the law so that even though we fail to follow it, we will not be condemned. Don’t forget &nb...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.  We will be in James 1 today. As Christians, we are constantly faced with trials. Our mindset shouldn't be to run or hide from the trial, but to understand the why behind the trial. The question is, do you trust God in these trials? Don’t forget  to pray for one another, especially during these uncertain times. You...

We are back. We apologize for the month long hiatus. Our church went through a very difficult time related to the COVID-19 pandemic, but we are happy to be back, and should continue with our weekly message. We will be in 1 Timothy today. We all have a responsibility to leave a legacy to live for Christ. The way we live and serve should have an impact on those who are coming up behind us, so that t...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Acts 3 today. The early Church was on fire for Christ despite the persecutions they faced. However, we live in a world where we have become cold, and wonder why things are getting worse. Now is the time to repent and return to Jesus. Don’t forget  to pray for one another, especially during these uncertain t...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Jude again today. As we continue with this sermon, we need to understand how to respond to this changing world. While the world continues to move farther away from God, we need to be obedient to Him. How is your faith? Keep praying for one another. Don’t forget  to pray for one another, especially during th...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Jude today. There’s no doubt that our world continues to get worse. This is unfortunately true even within the church, especially with Satan in control of this world. We can’t take on Satan alone, so we need to run to the Father who fights for us. Keep praying for one another. Don’t forget  to pray for one...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Ephesians 4 today. When we drive, and the gas tank is on empty, we won’t get very far unless it’s filled with gas. If it’s filled with anything else, it won’t run either. The same thing applies to us. If we aren’t filled with the holy spirit, we can easily be filled with other things that hold us back. What are...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in 1 Peter 3 today. Living a Christian life isn’t promised to be an easy one, especially when surrounded by sin and persecution. When we suffer in Christ, it’s a result of turning from sin. How well are you suffering? Don’t forget  to pray for one another, especially during these uncertain times. You can reach...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in 2 Corinthians 11 today.

What weaknesses can you boast about? Don’t forget  to pray for one another, especially during these uncerta...
