One Beat Christian Ministries Podcast

In Christ, we are free. We were once slaves to sin but through God’s perfect timing and the work of Jesus, we are now adopted into God’s family. Do you want to experience the freedom of being taken into God’s family? - Place your faith in Jesus. Have you already placed your faith in Jesus? - Then, let us live boldly and confidently in our identity as sons and daughters of God. Our prayer is that a...

Jesus calls us to die to our old nature, our selfishness, and our sinfulness so that we can be transformed into something new – a new creation in Him.   “The Day I Died” – highlights the reality of what it means to die to self. It’s not a literal physical death, but a spiritual death to our old ways of thinking, our selfish desires, and our sinful nature.   As we reflect on the message of dying to...

Today, we are blessed to be hearing about missions through our guest speaker, Dr. Hyeok Seon Kwon.   Our Scripture today, Matthew 25:14-30, also known as the Parable of the Talents, tells the story of a master who gives his servants different amounts of money or “talents”, trusting them to put it to good use while he’s away. This story speaks to us about missions by reminding us that we each have...

As we listen to today’s service entitled, Jesus Plus None, may we come to realize and accept that true freedom only comes from knowing Jesus Christ as our personal Lord and Savior.   Paul reminds the Galatians that there is no other way to salvation, only through Jesus alone – no needed addition. There is nothing else we need – only Jesus.   We are also reminded to be careful about what we listen...

We conclude our Life in CommUNITY series with a sermon entitled WalkINg Fellowhsip” –rather Walking IN Fellowship.   Life in community starts and ends with our walk with God.   We ask ourselves, how is my walk with God? How is my fellowship with Him? Can I have a private relationship with God and exclude others? Can I love like Jesus?   We can only love like Jesus if we walk in fellowship with Him...

“Whenever, wherever. You don’t have to go far – you can love (disciple) where you are.” F.F. Feliciano   This Sunday, we dig deeper into the Parable of the Good Samaritan. Here we see a conversation between Jesus and an expert of the law regarding how to inherit eternal life. Jesus’ answer included this parable teaching that we can’t inherit eternal life by doing good works but only by God’s grace...

Why was the early church so attractive? The people saw something in the church that people were drawn to it.   But what did the early church do? TOGETHER they devoted themselves to the Apostles’ teaching, fellowship, breaking of the bread and prayer. They even sold what they what they had and gave it to the needy. They did life together.   May we learn from the model that we see in Acts 2.   “The...

February is here and we have a new series – Life in Community.   This month, we will get to see the deeper meaning of “koinonia” – a Greek word whose primary meaning is “fellowship, sharing in common, communion”. God has designed us to thrive in a “koinonia” – a community that is centered around the love of Christ.   Our scripture today points back to the importance of belonging in a community. Th...

We are so blessed to hear God’s word today through our guest speaker, Pastor Scott Harris, all the way from Northshore Christian Church, Everett Washington.   This Sunday, we delved deeper into God’s word in the book of John where Jesus shared His last words – His prayer – for the disciples and for us. Jesus highlighted the importance of being united in Him. Our unity is a very powerful witness an...

As we end our series Stops and Steps, we look into Moses' encounter with God. God grabbed Moses' attention by a burning bush that doesn't burn up. We have a lot of burning bushes around us, but do they grab your attention? Or are we too preoccupied and busy to even notice? Is the Lord grabbing your attention today?  “We want big directional signs from God. God just wants us to pay atte...

What is God telling you to stop doing? What is He telling you to take step to?   The story of Paul in the Road to Damascus shows us how God guides our steps and stops. Paul was living the life. Yet, God had a greater plan for Him. God was going to use Paul to proclaim about Him to the Gentiles.   Aren’t you glad, Paul said yes? He could have not believed and continued to live his life persecuting...

Happy New Year!  As we begin the year 2025, we also begin a new series entitled Steps and Stops. We learn this month that God does not only guide our steps but also our stops.   We learn today that Joshua led the people of Israel into the promised land. As he was about to die, he challenged them in their faith. He offered them a choice- to recommit to the Lord and serve Him or serve other gods. Jo...

“God has a reason for allowing things to happen. We may never understand His wisdom, but we simply have to trust His will.” Anonymous   How was your Christmas celebration? What are your preparations for the New Year? 2024 is about to end and 2025 will begin in a few days. We have a lot of apprehensions and fears about what is to come as the new year starts. Today’s message tells us the story of Jo...

If we discovered we only have 10 minutes left to say all we wanted to say, every telephone booth, every phone and all networks will be so busy calling each other just to say words of love. But why wait until the last minutes?   Today’s message is entitled Chr1stm4s Lov3. Imbedded in the title are the number 143 – a known code for “I Love You”.   Anyone and everyone can love you, but only God’s lov...

Overjoyed! This word is an adjective that describes someone who is extremely happy or pleased. The Magi’s or the wise men who went to find Jesus were already overjoyed. This feeling was only upon seeing the star that pointed to His exact location. Just imagine what they must have felt when they are already face to face with Him. They must have been beyond ecstatic!   Today, as we celebrate the thi...

Today, we celebrated Christmas together! It is truly a joyous and memorable day! Indeed, it is far better to share the warmth, excitement and joy of the season with people you see and feel as family.  As we continue with our series, we are now to hear of today’s sermon entitled, Puzzle Peace. One thing to greatly remember during this special time of gifts, parties and festivities, is that there wi...

It’s December! We can already feel the breeze, the excitement and the rush of the Christmas season!   One thing about the Christmas is the giving and receiving of gifts! So today, we start we a new series entitled, Exchange Gift!   This season of gift-giving, what is the one thing that you want to receive from God? Or an even better question, what are you willing to give Him this season?   This wo...

Do you know that we take approximately 23,000 breaths every single day? The process of inhaling and exhaling is not as easy as you may think. It is a complicated respiratory task that requires physiological precision. Yet we tend to thank God only for the things that take our breath away. And this is fine, but maybe we should thank Him for every other breath too. Before your start to watch or list...

Today was a great Sunday service in our new home!   It’s our first day in our new home but today we end our series Glorify with the sermon entitled Grace to Praise.   What is grace? What is it all about? When we understand grace, there is no other for us to do but praise. So, what prohibits us from praising God?   Today, we learn our lessons from the Parable of the workers in the vineyard.   We pr...

We all have the same calling: to glorify God in everything we do. God created us for His glory and instructs us to do everything for His glory. But what does it mean to glorify God? It means to recognize God for who He really is and to respond appropriately. Today’s message is a reminder why we give glory to God. Come join us today as we learn to KNOW (Him) MORE, EXPERIENCE (Him) MORE, and GROW (i...

NO Is life more than that? YES May today’s message push you to think and to act on God’s calling in your life…...

To end our series “It’s His”, we look into the story of Moses and the Israelites as they cross the Red Sea. We have learned in the past weeks that the battle is the Lord’s but this doesn’t mean that we will not do anything. In today’s service, we will get to know what we should do as He fights our battles. At the end of the sermon, we pray that we all see our part as He parts the sea of troubles i...

In this life, we face many battles. And we want to win these battles.  We win some, but here comes another one. Also, there are those un-winnable ones. But no matter what, one thing is for sure, that God is true to His words. In today’s service, we will learn about one of the most unbelievable wins in the course of history – a battle led by King Jehoshaphat. One which is impossible to win. But the...

What do you do when you face obstacles, or the uncertainty of tomorrow? Are you inclined to think only in terms of the worst-case scenario? Before the Israelites were about to take over the land promised to them, they sent 12 people to spy on the land. Out of the 12, only 2 gave positive reports. These two chose with side of the battle line they will fall in. They chose the Lord’s side and chose t...

It is October! And with it comes our new series entitled It’s His! The battle is the Lord’s! To start off, we will look into the familiar story of David and Goliath. Where God has shown His power through the yielded life of David. Whatever battle you are facing, remember God is stronger. Whatever the circumstance, God is the answer. Whatever burden you are carrying, God can lift it. Stand still an...
