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 is...

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 anot...

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 in 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 is 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...

As Pastor Eddie begins his new teaching series through the book of 1 Thessalonians, he'll be exhorting you to live your life expectantly for 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 for Him w...

Today, Pastor Eddie will remind you that judging to condemn is the Lord's job... But Christians are still to discern false teachers. That is what you are called to judge. Don't just take someone's word for what the bible says, ask them to show you or find where it is in the bible yourself. Many groups today often have religious beliefs and rules that cannot be found anywhere in the bible. These ty...

In today's message, Pastor Eddie will remind you that not everyone will walk with the Lord the same way that you do. Some may choose to eat kosher, or some may choose to not drink alcohol. The bottom line is, as brothers and sisters in Christ, who are we to judge another for their practices? Pastor Eddie will also encourage you to not do the things that could cause another to stumble.

In today's message, Pastor Eddie will remind you that humans are generally creatures of habit. We have a way that we think works and should work for everyone... Even though that isn't always the case. Pastor Eddie will also remind you that everyone is different in the workings of the Holy Spirit. The Lord speaks to everyone in different ways, just because someone hears from the Lord differently th...

Have you ever wanted to do something you knew you probably shouldn't do? Sure you have! Maybe it was a party or bar you knew you shouldn't be at... And in today's message, Pastor Eddie will warn you not to use the excuse of “being a light in the darkness” to do things that you secretly want to participate in. Think of it, would you take Jesus to a Bar? Or a party where people are using His name in...

The disciple John saw Jesus do many miraculous things... Such as walking on water and feeding thousands. But as Pastor Eddie will share with you in today's message, At first John asked the question “Why did Jesus allow himself to go to the cross?” And as John eventually came to understand, it was because of love. Jesus didn't carry the cross to Calvary and say “Okay this is how much I love you” an...

In today's message, Pastor Eddie will share with you a portion of scripture that says not to owe anyone anything... Except for one thing. Love. Now, as Pastor Eddie will share, this doesn't mean that Christians can't take out loans or anything like that... But, what it is saying is that the one thing you owe every person... and every person owes you, is love. Love is the debt that cannot be paid o...

In today's message, Pastor Eddie will share with you the way you as a Christian should share the Gospel is peacefully... Maybe for you, that simply means having your bible out at lunch or passing out books on a street corner. Pastor Eddie will also remind you to set an example within your workplace. Your employer didn't hire you to preach, they hired you to work. So show up on time, work hard and...

In today's message, Pastor Eddie will share with you that if you share about Jesus and His Gospel everything will fall into place. You don't need to worry about what is politically correct, you, as a Christian should be concerned about what is correct according to God's word. Pastor Eddie will also encourage you to be praying for the leaders in your government... Even if they don't share the same...

In today's message with Pastor Eddie, You'll be reminded that all people, Christian or not, should submit themselves to their own government. You'll see that the scripture doesn't say “Only submit to your government if you agree with them” the scripture tells you to be in prayer for your government... Especially if all or some of what they do and say is biblically incorrect. Pastor Eddie will also...
