"Hath God said...?" The serpent's questions were carefully crafted to sow the smallest seeds of doubt. Today, even supposed Biblical scholars and professed clergy continue to sow doubt over the Lord's word, changing plain statements understood a certain way for millenia into smoke and mirrors. How do we recognize when this happens, and how do we guard against it? Sermon by Pastor Aaron Trelfa, rec...

Today we explore Isaiah 54's illustration of a Groom calling for his bride.

In Matthew 8, we meet a centurion whose beloved servant was terribly sick. In what he asked of Jesus, our all-knowing Savior confessed being astonished--not by what the centurion asked, but at the faith he demonstrated. Today, guest speaker Pastor Tabor Nudd reminds us of what faith can do in our lives! Sermon by Pastor Tabor Nudd, recorded April 1, 2023, at Ringgold Seventh-day Adventist Church

In an artist's self-portraits, one can usually gather clues of the artist's view of themselves. Today, we consider the meaning of God's self-portrait: unfallen humanity. Explore with Pastor Aaron seven things we learn from God's self-portrait, their contrast with our current fallen state, and how God's image can be restored in us. Sermon by Pastor Aaron Trelfa, recorded March 18, 2023, at Ringgold...

A Western movie classic showed us interesting distinctions between the good, the bad, and the ugly. The beauty and substance we see in classic art/architecture all too often contrasts with hollow art we may see today. Pastor Aaron reminds us that though God's "very good" creation is in a very fallen state now, by Christ's sacrifice we have hope of creation's--and our own --restoration! (This messa...

Water: As simple as it seems, just when we think we know everything about it, we learn just how complicated and unique this special compound is. We know it's essential to life, so when what God offers is compared to water, shouldn't we tune in to that? Hear scientist and science educator Ben Roy muse on the wonders of water, its Creator, and what our Creator offers us. Sermon by Ben Roy, recorded...

Hear Southern Adventist University theology student Karl Camacho ponder Moses and David's daring when they asked to see God's face and glory. Do we sell ourselves short by putting limits on our relationship with God? And daring as it would be, how might our relationship with God be deepened if we seek His face? Sermon by Karl Camacho, recorded on February 4, 2023, at the Ringgold Seventh-day Adven...

World leaders point out that we are in the year of the "poly-crisis," when several negative events with global impact seem to be happening all at once. When we feel our own poly-crisis building up--perhaps we're feeling bewildered, or feeling null and void like the earth at pre-creation--God can put His creative power to use in restoring and transforming us. Learn from Pastor Aaron Trelfa how we c...

Sermon by Dr. John Doh, recorded on January 21, 2023, at the Ringgold Seventh-day Adventist Church.

Party politics is hardly new. In fact, in Jesus' time they were not all that different from today. But somehow, a bipartisan interest did bring together the Pharisees and Sadducees--plotting to silence Jesus. Listen to Joe Story as he describes the political dynamics in Jesus' day and what we can draw from it today. Sermon by Elder Joe Story, recorded on September 3, 2022, at the Ringgold Seventh-...
