We will continue to study the Israelites’ journey after they were delivered out of Egypt in today’s message with Pastor Terry. Three months after leaving Egypt they came to Mount Sinai where God appeared to Moses in a powerful way. Not only was His appearance powerful but it was almost frightening… anyone who came near Mount Sinai would die. His mighty power was enough to get their attention, they...

We learn in the Old Testament that despite the Israelites’ efforts, they still failed to obey God’s commands. They were in the age of the law, and they continually fell short, no matter how hard they tried. It’s important for us to understand what happened in the Old Testament so we can now appreciate what God has done for us in the New Testament. He gave His only son to atone for our sins, to bri...

Do you feel like you are constantly failing to obey God? You’re not alone, no matter how hard we try, using our own strength, we will always fall short. In today’s message with Pastor Terry we will continue our study of the Israelites’ journey after leaving Egypt. It’s important to understand what happened in the Old Testament so we can have a better appreciation of what God did for us in the New...

In today’s message with Pastor Terry, we will discuss the Ten Commandments the Lord gave to the Israelites and how they were reiterated again in the New Testament. Before God gave them the commandments, He reminded the Israelites of His authority, that He was the one who brought them out of slavery into freedom. God has been SO faithful to us as well… He’s redeemed us from bondage and provided us...

Pastor Terry explains some of the Ten Commandments in today’s message and offers helpful insight on how we can apply them to our lives. We all have fallen short and disobeyed the commandments at one time or another, as much as we desire to do good, it’s part of our human nature to stray away. God desires for us to follow Him, and when we fall short, to seek His forgiveness and direction. As you li...

In today’s message with Pastor Terry, we will hear an in-depth description of the Tabernacle that the Lord instructed His people to build. He appointed specific artisans to create the ornate details, each detail with a specific meaning and symbolism. This was not a task to be taken lightly, the Tabernacle was God’s dwelling place among His people, it signified the presence of God in Israel. In tod...

The world wants you to forget what Christmas is truly about. Instead of being about the birth of the worlds savior, the world wants Christmas to be about materialism. Pastor Terry reminds you today that Christmas is about Christ. He teaches you that all the gifts given throughout all of history do not compare to the one gift that God gave you through His son Jesus. With Jesus you are given the gif...

Sin's a plague that hunts us as human beings. It's the core thing that rots away at us all. Pastor Terry teaches you today that despite the rot that you and everyone else was born with there's still hope. Through Jesus you can be made pure. Without Christ's influence in your life your battle against sin will ultimately fail. Even if you live a great life here you'll fall short before the judgement...

You were born as a sinner. Selfishness, lust, greed... it's all been there inside of you since the day you were born. Only one human was ever born sinless and that human was Jesus. Pastor Terry asks you today “what would a human without sin be like”? He challenges you to consider what Jesus was like throughout His life. How did He act as a baby, a child, then as a teenager? How different He must'v...

It's easy to sometimes overlook the significance of Christ. Jesus... a God, became a man. He lived a life not too different from the life that you are living, yet He did it while knowing that He was God. Pastor Terry challenges you today to consider the relevance of an omnipotent God willing to place Himself in a fragile human body. Consider the great love and concern that He must've had for you t...

Pastor Terry teaches you today that the time in history that Jesus chose to be born as a man was the perfect time for His Word to spread. A part of this is due to the fact that the Roman Empire was in charge. Their empire insured that the greek language was a priority for all to know. As such Jesus's teachings could easily spread throughout the lands and be described in depth due to the great vers...

You've been conditioned to get everything you want as quickly as possible. Fast food, overnight delivery, grocery stores with infinite variety... these things have subtly placed in you a discipline of expectation. You'll likely struggle when the thing that you want doesn't come with a quick and clear timeline for completion. Pastor Terry teaches you today that God works on His own timeline. He's n...

Moses was governing the Israelites, but it was too much for one person to handle. Jethro, Moses’ father-in-law recommended that he appoint judges amongst the people to help govern them. Later in the New Testament, Luke refers to the early church as the “Body of Christ” … there’s a theme here. In today’s message with Pastor Terry, we are reminded that God never intended for the church to be run sol...

In today’s message with Pastor Terry, we hear about the battle between Joshua and the Amalekites. As they fought, Aaron and Hur went to the top of a hill with Moses. As long as Moses held his hands up to God, the Israelites would prevail. When Moses felt tired, Aaron and Hur helped to support him. Just as they banded together in unity, we too should come together in prayer with our brothers and si...

As the Israelites wandered through the dessert, their second complaint to God was their lack of food. The Lord heard their grumbling and being a patient and gracious God, He provided them with manna to sustain and nourish their bodies. In today’s message with Pastor Terry, we discuss how this story foreshadowed what was to come in the New Testament. Jesus is the bread of life, He sustains us spiri...

Soon after the Hebrew people crossed the Red Sea to safety, they began complaining about their circumstances in the wilderness, as if they were beginning to take their freedom for granted. God was gracious and patient with them, He provided despite their grumbling. In today’s message with Pastor Terry, we learn about God’s faithfulness to the Hebrew people and how He satisfied their thirst and hun...

God led His people to an unexpected place before crossing the Red Sea, they were at a “dead end” but God showed his faithfulness and power by making a way for them to cross over to safety. He can do that in your life too. Are you facing a “dead end”? In today’s message with Pastor Terry, we continue to learn about God’s faithfulness. As we go through the Old Testament narrative of how God redeemed...

In today’s message with Pastor Terry, we will dive into the scripture and hear about God’s mighty power and protection of the Hebrew people. The Hebrews were led by God to an unexpected place where they were trapped, with the Egyptians following close behind. God made a way for them to escape and it was made clear that God had a plan all along… a plan that would show His protection over the Hebrew...

As we study the Passover in today’s message with Pastor Terry, we are reminded that the sacrifices of lambs was a foreshadowing of The Lamb that was to come. There are many correlations which will be discussed in detail between the Passover and the ultimate sacrifice Jesus made for all of us. Just as the innocent lambs were given, God gave his own son to save us from eternal separation from Him. T...

In today’s message with Pastor Terry we hear about the last plague, which ends up being the most severe: the death of each Egyptians’ firstborn child. Seems cruel but justice was served, God is a fair God… remember earlier in scripture we read that Pharaoh ordered every male Hebrew baby to be thrown into the Nile River. The Lord’s plan to save the Hebrew firstborns laid the groundwork for the futu...

Even Pharaoh’s magicians recognized the mighty power of God was stronger than their gods. With each plague, Moses pleaded with Pharaoh to obey God’s command and set the Hebrew people free. Each time, Pharaoh denies his requests and ignores the strength of God displayed in all the plagues. In today’s message with Pastor Terry we will continue our study of the plagues. There are many lessons we can...

In today’s message with Pastor Terry we continue our study of the plagues inflicted upon Egypt. After each plague, Pharaoh hardened his own heart, but when he reached the 7th plague, the Bible tells us that God hardened his heart. Have you been rejecting God? The Lord provides us with many examples that we can learn from in scripture and this is one of them. Don’t be like Pharaoh, keep your heart...

In today’s message, Pastor Terry discusses Moses’ calling to deliver his people out of Egypt. Unfortunately, Pharaoh was stubborn and refused to let the Hebrew people go. As Pharaoh continued to resist Moses’ requests, God inflicted plagues on Egypt. The series of plagues became more severe and hardened Pharaoh’s heart with each of Moses’ requests. It seems as though the plagues were directed at t...

God called Moses to lead the Hebrew people out of Egypt. You would think this task should be assigned to someone with strong leadership and speaking skills. But instead, God chose Moses, an average guy… Moses was fully aware of his weaknesses and he doubted his ability to lead the Hebrews. In today’s message with Pastor Terry, we will dive into scripture and learn how God showed up for Moses despi...

What God-given ability do you possess that can be used for the Lord? He blesses us all with different gifts and talents, but it’s up to us to commit those gifts to the Lord. No matter how small you think your abilities are, hand it over to God and He will use it for His glory. In today’s message with Pastor Terry, we hear about Moses’ calling to lead the Hebrews out of Egypt. Moses doubted his abi...
