Discussing the last days of the world is not always a fun topic. In fact, it can be intimidating and if we’re honest, frightening. But as you listen to today’s message, Pastor Terry will encourage you to not live in fear. Although the enemy is very real, Jesus is the real deal. He left the comfort of heaven to live and die for you. So be careful to not get lost in all the distractions of the world...

Have you ever found yourself in a place where you blink and the day is just gone? Where you were 15 yesterday and suddenly you’ll be 40 tomorrow? That’s life. It gets busy. And in the midst of the ‘busy’, there are distractions. And in the midst of the distractions, you forget why you’re living in the first place. Today Pastor Terry teaches on the shortness of life and how if you’re not careful, y...

Paul wrote in Romans 12 verse 1, “present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.” As Pastor Terry continues to teach on the life of Paul in today’s message, you’ll learn what it means to present your bodies as a living sacrifice. Of course, this doesn’t mean to physically sacrifice your body, but it does mean that your life should reflect th...

This life is filled with shiny things that can distract you from what matters. Today Pastor Terry will remind you that this world isn’t your final home. Think about it, if this world isn’t your final home, why do you invest so much into it? At the end of the day, the large homes, the fancy cars, the ‘in style’ clothing…none of that will matter. Just as this world will pass away so too will all the...

As you listen to today’s message with Pastor Terry, you’ll learn about the apostle Paul. Now Paul used to be known as Saul, a man who persecuted Christians. But the day Jesus met him on the road to Damascus, Paul was forever changed and that grace was something he never forgot. Like Paul, who you were doesn’t have to be who you become. The grace of Jesus is real and available to you too. If you’ve...

When you first step into a relationship with Jesus, you’re just beginning to understand what it means to live for Him. But as you mature in your faith, living for Him should look different than when you first met Him. Today Pastor Terry will expand on this. When you begin to understand Jesus’ mission, you begin to understand that He doesn’t just call you to stay in one place. He calls you to go. N...

Faith should be active. In fact, as believers in Christ, we're called to live as He lived…and Jesus acted. In today’s message, Pastor Terry will challenge you with this question, “Will you seek to multiply yourself for the Kingdom of Heaven?” This isn’t as complicated as it may seem. Simply put, Jesus had twelve disciples and these disciples were taught to teach others. This is what building the c...

In today's message, Pastor Terry will provide some clarity on an often quoted verse in the Bible. The Bible says that God has not given His children a spirit of fear. The word fear more accurately means cowardice. When we feel fear, many of us might just push it down and try to forget about it. Truthfully, there are many things that we could fear... But cowardice is letting the fear get the better...

In today's message, Pastor Terry will warn you that becoming a Christian doesn't just magically remove all of your problems from life. God is faithful to bless you and protect you when you need it... But the Bible says that Christians will have struggles in this world. Notice that it says will have struggles not could. As the world grows closer to the return of Jesus, the attack on Christianity be...

In today's message, Pastor Terry will share some important truths for those who are out in the workforce. In many ways, it can be difficult to represent Christ in your workplace or business. Besides being open and honest about your faith with those who might have questions, you can make the best possible product or service. In the workforce and in business, Christians should be the best in their f...

In today's message, Pastor Terry will remind you that ministry doesn't only take place in the lives of those who have made ministry their full-time employment. In all things and in all places, you can work in ministry. Whether you're working in a school, are in school, or own your own business... You have the opportunity to represent Christ in your job. You can choose to use honest business practi...

In today's message, Pastor Terry will share with you a new definition for witnessing to people about your faith. For some people, witnessing about Jesus to someone who may not know about Him can be a very daunting task. It can feel nerve-wracking and a bit uncomfortable... In reality, “witnessing” is really just getting people to know Him. It's simply introducing people to who Jesus and who He isn...

In today's message, Pastor Terry will encourage you to search for and create applicability in teachings and in your own readings of the Bible. How many of you have read through a textbook and didn't really retain the information? By only reading and not using practical application, you might not grasp a concept. The Bible is the same way. We have to incorporate the practical application into our l...

In today's message, Pastor Terry will speak to you about the purpose and history of the Holy Spirit. In the New Testament, Jesus is about to ascend back into heaven after His time on earth, serving with His disciples. Jesus tells the disciples that there will be a helper for them since He is leaving. He calls this helper the Holy Spirit... And that's exactly what the Holy Spirit is, a helper. It h...

In today's message, Pastor Terry will help clear up some misconceptions about the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the third part of the trinity that lives inside of believers in Jesus. The Holy Spirit serves as an aid and as a guiding light as we go through the world... But maybe you're confused about how that all works. Some people talk about “hearing” the voice of the Holy Spirit... Oftentimes i...

Everyone is a sinner. Everyone. No one is blameless and worthy of God’s favor and righteousness on their own. God’s law reveals how sinful every person is. It proves everyone is guilty. But there is hope! Today, Pastor Terry will encourage you to remember that because of the Lord Jesus, there is grace for you. Though no one deserves it, he gives it abundantly to anyone who comes to him in faith. J...

Early Jewish believers in Jesus were rejoicing that so many gentiles were being saved. But, they were still submitting to the old religious Jewish life and trying to force new believers to as well. However, as Pastor Terry teaches today, Paul and the early church realized early on that because of Jesus’ sacrifice for sins, you are saved by grace. There’s no need to be a slave to the law that could...

When Paul adjusted his methods to win believers for the gospel, he was flexible. He followed the leading of the Holy Spirit. He was willing to try new methods to speak to new cultures. This flexibility is crucial in ministry, as Pastor Terry teaches today. You can’t just get in a rut! However, there are some things you simply can’t bend on. Our culture today declares the bible outdated and irrelev...

The Jewish people should’ve been the ones in society who were most open to the Messiah Jesus, and to his message of Salvation being taught in the early church. However, as Pastor Terry teaches today, they rejected Jesus and they rejected his message. Paul tried to start teaching about the good news of the gospel to the Jewish people in new towns, yet, in pride, jealousy and stubbornness, they reje...

The life of the believer isn’t merely to just sit and take it all in. Instead, as Pastor Terry will teach today, you are in fact created for good works. God wants to use you! He calls you to serve him in this world. He may call you to big plans, like Paul, or he may be calling you to serve in smaller ways in this season. Yet, all roles God has are important, all are necessary. Get involved in a ch...

Paul was a pretty important and infamous person in the early Christian Church. Rightly so. He was incredibly dedicated to believers, devoted to God, and desperate for people to know and love Jesus. However, as Pastor Terry teaches today, Paul likely wouldn’t have had the ministry he did without the help of other believers like Barnabas. He believed in him. He encouraged and challenged Paul in his...

Have you ever found yourself in a place where you blink and the day is just gone? Where you were 15 yesterday and suddenly you’ll be 40 tomorrow? That’s life. It gets busy. And in the midst of the ‘busy’, there are distractions. And in the midst of the distractions, you forget why you’re living in the first place. Today Pastor Terry teaches on the shortness of life and how if you’re not careful, y...

Paul lived a life of religion and rules, not relationship and devotion to God. Yet, once God got a hold of him, his life changed. Yet, it wasn’t like God changed him instantly. It took some time alone with God to change him, grow his faith, teach him about biblical truth, and become intimate with the Lord. Today, Pastor Terry will teach about Paul’s years alone with Jesus and how that fueled the e...

God often takes the most broken, the most wayward person and transforms them. He opens their eyes to their evil life and by His incredible power, He redeems them and gives them new life. Pastor Terry teaches today that in these unbelievable transformations, God makes warriors for his name's sake! They become a powerful weapon against the enemy. And God uses them and their salvation story to save o...

In Paul’s early life, he was religious, zealous, hard-hearted, and murderous. He was as against Christianity as one could get. He opposed Jesus and anybody for Jesus and persecuted them mercilessly. Yet, even his life was redeemed, as Pastor Terry teaches today. Your life is never too far gone, your sin never too big for God to rescue and redeem you. God can and will use any life when it’s surrend...
