Do ever feel caught in the trap of striving and working for your salvation? Today, Pastor Eddie teaches that religion is the hamster wheel of strife; rituals, rules, and regulations. However, grace is a gift to all who believe. With grace, we no longer have to strive and perform, but receive the gift of justification. He teaches that justification means “just as if you had never sinned.” Salvation...

We can't exclude when it comes to the gospel. Just like Paul did in his day, we are obligated to share the gospel to everyone who will listen. In today's message we learn from Pastor Eddie that Jesus wanted everyone to have access to him. So, whether sophisticated, not sophisticated, homeless or elite; Paul understood the gospel was for all. That is the challenge for believers today; to share the...

Today Pastor Eddie shares with us why prayer needs to be a habit of the church. As we look to Paul, we see that he regularly made mention of fellow believers in his prayers. This tells us that Paul thought this to be a crucial habit in the church. Prayer tells God that we have faith in Him and that we wish to consult with Him. It's an important connection with Him that we let go unused too often....

Do you ever feel like the calling on your life seems small? In today's message, Pastor Eddie teaches that every call from the Lord is great no matter how big or small it seems. His challenge to us, is to be careful in how we view our callings. Like Paul, we must fix our eyes on God, and where He is leading us. We may think that other's callings seem more significant, but we are reminded that just...

Was not Jesus a servant? Today, Pastor Eddie encourages believers through the teaching of Paul, to follow after Christ's example in humility and service. Paul considered himself to be enslaved to Christ, and was diligent in obeying his will. He carried out his life and work unto the Lord. As believers, if Jesus was willing to humble himself to God's will and serve; even to the point of death on a...

Sometimes we might not fully understand the gift of grace. However, as believers we all have experienced grace within our lives. In today's message, we will learn from Pastor Eddie, that grace is unmerited favor. Grace, he explains, is God's riches at Christ's expense. It's a gift that God has extended to those who have placed their faith and trust in Jesus Christ through his death and resurrectio...

Are you going through a trial right now? If not, chances are you just came out of one or you’re about to go into one, but don’t let that discourage you. Paul went through many hardships including some near-death experiences, as we’ll see in today’s teaching. However, Pastor Eddie shows how God used these same trials to grow the church and answer prayer! So the next time you find yourself going thr...

We often hope God will give us the desires of our heart and He loves to do so! But more than just granting selfish wishes, God wants to place desires in our heart for His perfect will. Once you receive those promises, don’t lose hope as God works to fulfill them. In today’s message, Paul is the perfect example of God’s faithfulness. His desire to share the Gospel in Rome was fulfilled despite all...

A chapter by chapter, verse by verse study of the book of Galatians.

Do you live your life in such a way where you could be accused of being a Christian? Would the evidence stack against you leaving no doubt? Sharing the Gospel shouldn’t be a crime but this is exactly what Paul was facing, as we’ll see in today’s teaching with Pastor Eddie. This passage is becoming more and more relevant today as many churches and Christians are finding themselves outside the law....

How well do you know the scriptures? Well, we might be coming into some days where we’re tested in this area- and not by a friendly Sunday school teacher, but by antagonistic, worldly people and authorities. In today’s message, Pastor Eddie teaches on Paul’s trial before Festus. Like Paul, there may very well come a time when we have to defend our belief in Jesus and His resurrection. Are you read...

Being a follower of Christ won’t exactly help you win any popularity contests; in fact, the Word promises that we’ll face persecution in this world. The apostle Paul was no stranger to persecution, as we’ll see in today’s message. Pastor Eddie shows us how- despite Paul’s innocence- he was tried several times. You may face similar treatment today, but the reason is something you can rejoice over:...

The Apostle Paul was a man with a singular mission: to preach the Gospel. Paul was so committed to his calling that he considered his life nothing. In today’s message, Pastor Eddie reminds us that there are many Christians worldwide that continue to fulfill the Great Commission at great personal risk. In fact, many of God’s people give their very lives to tell others about the Good News of salvati...

When Paul testified about Jesus and preached the Gospel to others, he did not have the benefit of the synoptic Gospels or the rest of the New Testament. However, he had the entire Old Testament and all the prophecy concerning the coming Messiah to prove that Jesus was indeed the Promised One. In today’s message, Pastor Eddie reminds us that all of Scripture points to Jesus, and therefore both the...

In today’s message from Acts 22, we will hear about Paul’s trial in Rome. The Jewish leaders were murderously angry at Paul because Paul preached the message of Jesus Christ. In order to further their malicious agenda, the Jewish leaders used coercion and flattery. Pastor Eddie teaches us about the dangers of using flattery for personal gain. God detests manipulation and falsehood, and flattery fa...

Perhaps no single man has been more used of God than the Apostle Paul. He established many churches and wrote much of the New Testament. However, when Paul’s passionate zeal for his own people led him to preach the Gospel in Jerusalem, he was met with great opposition. In today’s message, Pastor Eddie teaches us that when we proclaim the Good News, it will not always be easy. We may not even live...

In the book of Acts, Paul appeared before the Sanhedrin to give testimony about Jesus Christ. The Sanhedrin consisted of Jewish authorities that were fiercely divided into two groups: the Pharisees and the Sadducees. The Pharisees believed in the resurrection and the afterlife. The Sadducees did not. In today’s message, Pastor Eddie points out that through the guidance of the Holy Spirit, Paul use...

In Acts chapter 22, Paul appeared before the Sanhedrin and boldly declared the Gospel Message of Jesus Christ and Him crucified. Paul spoke knowing that his boldness could cost him even his very life. In today’s message, Pastor Eddie teaches us that whenever we dare to tell others about Jesus, there will be those that will try to shut our mouths. However, we should pray, as Paul surely did, for st...

In Acts 22, speaks to the Jewish authorities. Paul chose pontificate with eloquent theology or give listeners a brief course in Christian apologetics. Instead, Paul shared his personal life changing testimony. In today’s message, Pastor Eddie encourages us to be willing to share what the Lord has done in our lives. There is nothing more miraculous to a desperate world than a life changed by the Lo...

The Apostle Paul never shied away from sharing the Gospel. He would do anything to reach the lost. In today’s message, Pastor Eddie teaches us that as Paul spoke to people, he did everything that he could do identify with them. When he was speaking to the Jews, for instance, he spoke to them in Hebrew, their mother tongue. As he did so, cultural barriers were instantly removed. We should emulate P...

Paul was not a people pleaser. He lived to bring glory to God and lead others to Christ. He was a Gentile to the Gentile and a Jew to the Jew. But as Pastor Eddie clarifies in today’s message, he never went so far as to compromise his faith in Christ. He respected people’s customs, and even participated in some for the sake of finding unity with them. He knew that it wasn’t about rules and regulat...

It is only by the grace of God and the power of His Holy Spirit that we live a righteous life. There’s nothing for us to boast about or take pride in apart from Him. He has redeemed us and equipped us to share His love with the world around us. In today’s message, Pastor Eddie encourages us to find confidence in Him, and when He accomplishes good works through you, give Him all the glory.

Would you be willing to sacrifice your eternity in heaven if it meant your friends or loved ones could experience it? If we’re honest, most of us would say no. Fortunately, God would never call us to do that. He loves us too much. As Pastor Eddie reminds us in today’s message, Jesus sacrificed Himself for us. He was without sin, but He took on ours, freeing us from condemnation.
