Highland Gospel Mission

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Matthew 14 today. In this whole chapter, Jesus lost a close friend/relative, the disciples faced a storm, and several thousand people were hungry. Yet even though Jesus felt the emotions of a human, he was able to cope with the loss by healing the sick, fed thousands of people with a small lunch, and walked on w...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Ephesians 4 today. We talked about this subject back in February, but the message is just as important. To preserve the unity of the spirit and grow in Christ, God gave us each gifts. Therefore, it is important for us to use these gifts to grow the body of Christ. What gifts has God given you to utilize? “Go the...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Romans 14 today. In the moment, it's easy to pass judgment on people based on visible sin. However, for the lost person, all this does is shut the door to Gospel. We need to be individuals who show compassion to one another for the purpose of seeking and saving the lost, and let God be the judge. “Go therefore a...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Galatians 6 today. In addition to adopting good behaviors for our own spiritual benefit, we also need to bear each other's burdens to build accountability and strengthen relationships. Keep doing good to others. “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in 1 Corinthians 3 today. God doesn’t expect all Christians to be on the same level. A brand new believer isn’t expected to act as someone who has followed Christ for 20 years, but growth should be happening, and maturity is necessary, especially when it comes to sharing the Gospel. “Go therefore and make disciples...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Revelation 21 today. A coward isn’t someone being afraid, but someone who lets their fear control them. While it’s natural for the flesh to be cowardice to the pressures of the world, God wants us to surrender that over to him so that the Gospel can be proclaimed. Are you letting cowardice get in the way of shar...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Philippians 1 today. It is good for us to pray, but our prayer should have the right motivation. If we pray out of selfish motivation, God may still answer that prayer, but not in the way we might expect. Pray for the encouragement of others, for peace and love in a way that will bring glory to God. “Go therefor...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in James 3 today. Nobody likes being misquoted or misrepresented. But there is a danger in misrepresenting what God says. Before declaring “God told me to do this”, read scripture to discern if it really is God speaking, or if it is just your selfish motivation. “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations,...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Matthew 11 today. We as humans have a bad habit of carrying around a lot of extra weights and burdens that aren’t beneficial and wear us out. When Jesus called us to repent, He called us to put down those burdens and let Him carry them. What unneeded burdens are you carrying? “Go therefore and make disciples of...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. This week, Pastor Keith will be giving a report on the recent mission trip that he took to Bozeman, Montana to help build up the Church at Four Corners. At first, he wasn’t sure why he came down to help, but the Lord revealed to him that a lot has to be given up to support the mission. What are you willing to give up to carry...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in 1 Corinthians 8 today. We have been given liberty in Christ to be able to do some things that others might view as sinful. However, while we might not stumble as a result of our actions, it is important that we don’t cause others to stumble. How are you caring for other believers? “Go therefore and make disciple...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. Pastor Doug will be delivering a special message this morning. Peter denied Jesus 3 times even after saying that he would remain faithful, and struggled to grasp the task he was given at the great commission. When we try to be faithful in our own strength, we often fail. It’s only when we rely on His strength that we can be c...

Happy Resurrection Day everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in John 19 today. Every sin we committed put Jesus on the cross. We mocked Him, beat Him, drove the nails into His hands, and ultimately killed an innocent man. Christ could have stopped this, but He chose to take the punishment and forgive us, so we should be able to forgive one another. “Go therefore...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in John 13 today. Jesus offered to wash Peter’s feet to demonstrate an act of love. This was very important, because as Paul pointed out, love is the only thing that will endure after everything else is gone, and is one of the most valuable investments you can make. How are you loving one another? “Go therefore and...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in 2 Samuel 6 today. While God is a God that is to be feared when things are going bad, He is also to be praised when things are going good. So when David found out that the ark of the Lord brought about great blessings, his own wife was embarrassed that he was dancing in his underwear praising God. Even though he...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in 1 Kings 18 and 19 today. Elijah was courageous standing up to the prophets of Baal, but as soon as his life was in danger, he hid from his enemies. It’s easy to get discouraged and fearful when our life is in danger, but if we listen to God, He will deliver us and accomplish great things through us. God’s voice...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Galatians 4 today. When we come to Christ, we are adopted into the Kingdom as sons and daughters of God. We are no longer slaves to sin, and have a perfect Father that loves us. This also means that we are brothers and sisters to one another, and we ought to love one another as our Father first loved us. “Go the...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Matthew 11 today. God has a purpose for each one of us, and when we go at it alone, it’s difficult to find peace when things get hard. By trusting in Christ and following His direction, His will would be  accomplished with the peace that passes all understanding. “Go therefore and make disciples of all the...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Philippians 1 today. Our mission as Christians is to share the Gospel and the name of Jesus. Regardless of how this is accomplished, there will always be a cost. Paul was persecuted and chased from city to city, ultimately dying for the cause. This shouldn’t discourage us, as our reward is in Heaven. Pray this w...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Ephesians 4 today. God has given each of us a calling, and sometimes things don’t go our way. But God is often equipping us with the tools that we need to accomplish His will. This is why it’s important to walk in a manner that is worthy of our calling by preserving the unity of the Spirit. “Go therefore and mak...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Matthew 20 today. A life in Christ isn’t supposed to be about getting what we want, as the mother of the sons of Zebedee wanted, but about serving others as Jesus demonstrated by healing the blind. How are you living out a life in Christ? “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in John 9 and 10 today. As Jesus gives the parable of the shepherd and the sheep, He points out that He is the good shepherd that calls our voice, and we are to follow. Jesus doesn’t let us out of the church, He leads us out. Follow Jesus, and share His message. “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations,...

Sorry about the audio quality, we are in the process of adjusting and fixing some audio issues with our mixer board that’s creating a lot of noise in the recording. We hope to have it resolved in the next few weeks. Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Hebrews 3 and 4 today. It is more important than ever that as believers we are sharing the Gospel...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in John 14 today. Jesus made a way for us to get to Heaven, by living the life that we couldn’t. But Jesus wants more than our salvation, He wants a relationship with us. That’s why He wants us to keep His commandments. He gave His life for us, at the very least, we should live our lives for Him. “Go therefore and...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Acts 3 and 4 today. Peter and John were bold to speak of the Gospel after the crucifixion, which eventually led to their martyrdom. They were untrained and uneducated, but even despite this, they were still faithful to share the message. Today, we don’t face nearly as many struggles and challenges as they faced,...
