The leaders and pastors among you are given to you by God and are there to help you grow, to give you wisdom, to correct you, and to lead you. Today, Pastor Eddie will encourage you to submit to your leadership. Submission isn’t always easy. It takes humility and respect. But, your leaders have great faith in God and give their hearts to you in this call. So, out of love, esteem them, respect them...

All humans on earth for all time have been sinful. And by our sin, we deserve to go to hell. But, as Pastor Eddie teaches today, Jesus made a way so you don’t have to go to hell. By believing in Jesus and trusting in Him for your salvation, you can go to Heaven. Because there is a day coming, The Day of the Lord when God’s full judgment will be given out on earth for rejecting His Son. The only wa...

Be alert, be steadfast, and be ready. Jesus tells believers that you do not know when He’ll return, so He calls you to be vigilant and ready for His return. But, as Pastor Eddie explains today, man is often more comfortable living unholy lives, not expecting Jesus. Instead, he teaches, that you should live holy lives. Don’t just rest on your salvation prayer, but live faithful, obedient, and humbl...

Mankind has forever been trying to figure out when the day of the Lord will be. There’ve been numerous theories and predictions. But, as Pastor Eddie teaches today, the man simply will not know. Only God knows! So, stop trying to figure it out! Instead, focus on living your life prepared for Jesus’ return. Seek to spend this time well, telling others how to be saved from the judgment that’s coming...

Brothers and Sisters, there's coming a glorious day for each of us. Today, Pastor Eddie is excited to share with you about the rapture of the bride of Christ. Think about what that means. Every believer, from the dawn of time, will be together with Jesus. We'll see Abraham, Moses, David, the Apostles, and more! Mom's, dad's, and other loved ones, who have passed into the arms of Jesus, before us –...

In Romans, Chapter Eight, the Apostle Paul writes, that our present suffering is but a minor affliction, compared to the glory that awaits us in the presence of Jesus. In today's message, about the rapture, Pastor Eddie wants to encourage you. Unless we are alive, at the time of the rapture, we will all die. But, the death we experience is simply a change of residence. We'll leave these broken and...

Jesus loves His bride, so much that He gave His life for her. Pastor Eddie reminds you, today, that you are part of the Bride of Christ. And, if Christ loved you enough to die for you, you can rest assured that He won't allow you to go through His wrath. As you study the Scriptures, the end times prophecies sound kind of frightening. But, know that those judgments described are not intended for th...

Have you ever heard the saying, “Talk is cheap?” Pastor Eddie wants you to know, that, just saying I love you, isn't really love. Real love is shown by what you do. Real love, means making sure your brother's, or sister's needs are put ahead of your own. Selfishness has no place in love. If you love someone, as a Christian, you will love with the love of Christ. No greater love can one have, than...

Love is a consistent theme in the Scriptures. Today, Pastor Eddie wants you to remember that you are to love your brothers and sisters in Christ. Jesus said, in John Chapter Thirteen, “By this, all will know that you are my disciples, if you have a love for one another.” Our love, demonstrated to each other, is God's greatest evangelical tool. Most people want someone to genuinely love them. God i...

If you saw a bottle with a skull and crossed bones on it, you probably wouldn't fill a drinking glass and take a big sip of its contents, would you? Pastor Eddie is sounding the same alarm that the Apostle Paul sounded two thousand years ago. Just like that bottle with the warning label, they both are pleading with us to treat immorality like the deadly poison that it is. May God's Word resonate i...

Have you ever used something that it wasn't intended for? Or have you ever tried to use something but your method was far from proper? Well, Pastor Eddie will explain today that we have the right purpose, and it's important that we follow the instructions of the one that created us. God can do beautiful things when we submit to his plan, and humbly surrender to his well-trained hands.

Thinking of your relationship with Jesus as a walk is a great picture for us to hold onto. How we walk, where we walk, what we do along the walk, and who we walk with, are all factors in where we will end up. Pastor Eddie will be diving into 1 Thessalonians 4 today and will challenge us to walk alongside God and to live a life focused on pleasing Him. Who knows what unexpected adventures will happ...

Jesus said that the greatest commandment was to love God with all our heart soul mind and strength and to love our neighbor as ourselves. When we fail to love our neighbor, we are sinning against God and our neighbor. Pastor Eddie will show us, our best attempts to fill the law will always fall short. It's not just hard to love, it's impossible! That's why we need God to live in us so that his lov...

When we come into this world, we meet our family for the very first time. When we are born again, and become children of God, then we get an entirely new family! Pastor Eddie shares that the connection we have with one another in the spirit goes even deeper than blood. If you loved your church family like you love your earthly family, what would change? Others will know us for our love for one ano...

The Apostle Paul as he was traveling, and sharing the Gospel, was witnessing God's kingdom being established as more and more people began to believe. The fellowship and family that was created in those early days of Christianity were special, and Pastor Eddie shows us how important it is for us to get together with fellow believers. We will also get a glimpse at the relationship between Paul and...

Are you experiencing persecution and hatred from the world? Why? Is it because you’re standing by-laws and religious rituals? Is it because you’re siding with political groups that aren’t mainstream? Or is it because you’re following Jesus and sharing His Truth and love? As Pastor Eddie will point out in today’s message when you truly follow Christ, it’s going to be fully counter-cultural, and des...

We need humility to follow Christ. He’s a gracious Savior, but one thing that can never stay in His presence is sinful pride. You must lay down your own agendas and confidence in your strength and capabilities. As Pastor Eddie will challenge us in today’s message, if you want to grow and be successful in God’s Kingdom, it requires humbling yourself and submitting fully to the guidance and correcti...

God prefers to use those who are humble. When He sent His Son into the world, He didn’t choose the wealthiest, most powerful family to provide comfort and safety. He chose a humble virgin, engaged to be married. Women were very second-rate citizens at that time, especially unmarried women, yet that’s who God chose to bring His Son into the world. Today, Pastor Eddie will remind us that God loves a...

You can’t save anyone. Billy Graham didn’t save anyone. The Apostle Paul didn’t even save anyone. Jesus alone saves. Even the most revered evangelists and pastors are simply vessels that God uses to pour out His grace on humanity. This should take a lot of pressure off of you. As Pastor Eddie will explain in today’s message, all you can do is share the truth of Jesus, and everything after that is...

God allows His Children to experience suffering and trials. Don’t believe anyone who tells you otherwise. But there’s a difference between Him inflicting it and simply allowing it. There is some controversy in the Church over the timeline of when the rapture will happen, but as Pastor Eddie will explain in today’s message, God won’t inflict His wrath on those who have already accepted Him, and He’...

It doesn’t require a degree or special training to share the Gospel. All too often, we make excuses to get out of this calling. Deep down we may be afraid of rejection, or maybe we’re genuinely afraid of just saying something wrong and misleading someone. As Pastor Eddie will explain in today’s message, those obstacles are all put in place by Satan. If you just simply tell people what God’s done i...

Preaching the Gospel isn’t just the job of the pastor. We’ve moved to a church culture where the pastor and Sunday morning worship service are at the center of so much of what we do. For many believers, it’s the only spiritual or Gospel-related thing in their lives. As Pastor Eddie will exhort us in today’s message, we shouldn’t be relying on one man behind the pulpit to share the Gospel – we need...

Do you remember how much internal restlessness and distress you felt before you knew the Lord? All of humanity yearns to be at peace and have forgiveness of sin. As Pastor Eddie continues his teaching series, he'll be explaining how you can only have peace, if you first experience salvation by the grace of God. This is why Paul starts most of his letters with “grace and peace to you” because he kn...

As Pastor Eddie begins his new teaching series through the book of 1 Thessalonians, he'll be exhorting you to live your life with the expectancy of the Lord's imminent return. The Apostle Paul wrote this letter to encourage the church, and to help them understand that there would be a Second Coming of the Lord. The Lord can return for His church at any moment, the question is, will you be ready fo...

The Old Testament was filled with over 600 laws that the Israelites had to keep in order to be in “right standing” with God. When Jesus started His ministry He summarized the entire law into just two commandments. They were to “Love God” and “Love Others.” In today’s message, Pastor Eddie will be sharing how we are called to live by these two commandments. The Christian life is measured by how wel...
