Sundays with Hosanna Fellowship

A tree is identified by the fruit it bears. So are we. Pastor Gray expounds on Matt. 7:15-23, "by their fruit you  shall know them" (vs. 20).  When Jesus went to the fig tree for a fig, he discovered no figs. That fig tree represents both the church and individual believers.  Will the world find good, evil, or no fruit at all from us when it seeks to know the Lord?

"For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul" (Mark 8:36 KJV).  Pastor Gray asks us, have we given up our lives for the sake of Jesus or are we holding onto the pleasures of this world?  Where will your eternal destiny be? Will you meet Jesus as Judge or as Savior?

Pastor Gray preaches on Isaiah 59:19, "when the enemy comes in like a flood."  On Oct. 7, 2024, it will be one year since Hamas attacked Israel. The code name for this insurrection was The Flood. Israel's ultimate enemy, Satan, like Hamas, wants to destroy them. In doing that, Satan must also destroy the true church because it is the only ally Israel has.  What tactics does Satan use to do this? A...

Pastor Gray speaks about the baptism of the Holy Spirit, the benefits of that baptism, and the instructions Jesus gave the disciples before He ascended to heaven.

Pastor Gray expounds on 1 Peter 4:17-19, "For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God; and if it begins with us first, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God?" (verse 17).  Pastor encourages the church to examine themselves, repent of any sin, and walk holy. Then to proclaim Jesus to those around us.

Looking at Revelation 2:13, Pastor Gray examines Christ's word to the church at Pergamos.  The doctrine of Balaam had entered that church, and the same accusation can be said of today's churches. The doctrines of humanism and secularism are prevalent.  We must repent and return to living the Truth--Christ's shed blood paid the price for our sins.

Pastor Gray exhorts the congregation with words from Revelation 2:1-7.  Jesus knew the good works the church of Ephesus was doing. But they had left their first love…Jesus. He was no longer first in their lives. Idols had taken a place in their hearts instead.  He that has an ear let him hear. Have you left your first love?

Pastor Gray expounds on Colossians 3:1-3. If you have been raised up with Christ, you are seated with Christ and hidden with Him in God.  Pastor asks, is your mind set on Christ? Have you been established in the Lord? Are you always searching out the things of Christ? Listen in and discover more about your position in Christ.

Pastor Gray examines Luke 15:1-32 the parable of the lost as he exhorts us to seek the lost and bring them the good news of salvation.  The lost don't know they're lost. Like sheep, many have simply wandered off. Like the coin, the lost have not lost their value. And we must seek them out. But for the prodigals, we must pray for them to come home.

Pastor Gray preaches from Ezekiel 37:1-14 concerning dry bones.  Today's churches are filled with dry bones, people whose relationship with the Lord is dead. Just as He promised Israel through the prophet Ezekiel, the Lord will open our graves and cause us to rise again.  Do you have a grave that needs to be opened?

Pastor Bill Grace encourages us with Romans 8:37, we are more than conquerors, and 2 Chronicles 20:17, the Lord is with you.  He discusses the connection between the spiritual and natural. We must be rooted in Christ to overcome. And God makes a promise to those who overcome.  Grab your Bible and follow along.

Pastor Bill Grace preaches on bringing others hope.  The world lacks hope, but hope is always available to us through Jesus. As Timothy was a kindred spirit for Paul, Pastor Grace encourages us to be kindred spirits for our pastor. To bring hope to the world, to encourage and build them up.

Pastor Gray speaks out about the false prophets of today and the need for repentance.  The world and the church of today are filled with arrogance. Prophets are the eyes and ears of the Lord. But many refuse to listen to the Lord's instructions. We must beware of false prophets for they come in sheep's clothing but are ravening wolves.  Wake up! And start preaching Jesus, simply Jesus.

Pastor Griffin delivers the last workshop of the Simply Jesus Conference. He examines are we walking in God's plan or our own plan.

In workshop 3 of the Simply Jesus Conference, Pastor Jeff  Pickerel examines the role of worship.

Pastor Dave Chikosi delivers the second workshop of the Simply Jesus Conference, a powerful lesson on gaining breakthrough.

In this first workshop of the Simply Jesus Summer Conference, Pastor Duree discusses the price Jesus paid and that we need to be about our Father's business.

Pastor Doc Shell discusses the fear of God that is often missing in the churches of today, and being born again. Do not be one to whom Jesus says, "I never knew you."  Pastor expounds on four steps to knowing with certainty that you are born again. The first is conviction of sin. Next is confession of the truth. Third, God cleanses your heart.  Listen in to hear the fourth.

On the second night of the Simply Jesus Conference, Pastor Shell asks the question "Why did Jesus come?"  Pastor Shell examines in a whole new way the parable of the lost sheep, lost coin, and lost son in Luke 15. Listen in and ask yourself if you fit into any of these three categories.

Our Simply Jesus Summer Conference opens on Friday night, July 19, 2024, with Pastor Doc Shell preaching about the kinsman redeemer.  The kinsman redeemer bought back something that had been lost. Listen in and discover everything Jesus, as our kinsman redeemer, bought back for us. 

Pastor Gray expounds on 1 Peter 2:21, "For you have been called for this purpose, since Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example for you to follow in His steps."  We are soldiers for the Lord. But we cannot be soldiers without first being servants, and we cannot be servants without first being pupils. Christ is the example we are to follow and become like. Grab your Bible and follow al...

Pastor Gray looks at God's timetable and our time on earth.  Our time here on Earth is equivalent to 7 minutes in eternity. Is your life glorifying God?

Pastor Gray outlines what Jesus did to be our sacrifice for sin.  In the fullness of time, Jesus came to the earth, not as God, not as an angel, but as a man. Why? Because only as man could He pay the price for mankind's sin.  What the law could not do, Jesus did, so we could receive the adoption of sons.

Pastor Gray continues his study of the book of Galatians. In this message he covers 2:4-5.

Pastor Gray examines what today's church has forgotten: God is a holy God.  Second Timothy 3:1-5 gives us a glimpse of what today's world is like. But God calls His  people to be holy and separate from the world. Holiness is not about being perfect, but being holy in all our behavior.  Listen in for how you can make a difference in the world around you.
