The UnSafe Bible

We can begin our walk with Jesus full of passion, commitment, and a desire to follow wherever He leads. But over time, it’s easy to lose focus, become comfortable, and forget that we have been called to live on mission. Pastor Ken will challenge you today by reminding you that your faith was never meant to be something you simply add to your life; it’s meant to transform every part of who you are....

We’re called to be holy, set apart for God, but that doesn’t mean becoming strange, disconnected, or putting on a show of being ultra-religious. True holiness is about reflecting Christ's character in the way we live, love, and serve others every day. As Pastor Ken will share with you today, God calls you to stand out not because you act weird, but because His Spirit is transforming you from the i...

We all wrestle with difficult questions at times. Why is there pain and suffering? Why do bad things happen to good people? Why doesn’t God always intervene the way we hope He will? While we may not find every answer in this life, we can still choose to trust the One who sees the whole picture. Today, Pastor Ken will explain to you that faith isn’t built on having every question answered; it’s bui...

We often wonder when Jesus will return, knowing His coming could happen at any moment. Yet God’s heart is full of mercy, patiently giving people every opportunity to repent and receive His gift of salvation. His delay isn’t a sign of indifference; it’s a picture of His incredible love. Today, Pastor Ken will share with you that God desires that no one should perish but that all would come to repen...

Many of us have heard the idea that after we die, there’s a waiting place before we can finally be with God. That kind of uncertainty can leave us wondering what really happens after this life ends. But the good news of the gospel gives us a sure hope. Pastor Ken will explain to you today that because of Jesus’ finished work on the cross, those who belong to Him don’t have to wait to enter His pre...

We can be incredibly grateful that we don’t have to live under the Old Testament sacrificial system. Day after day, sacrifices had to be offered to cover sin, yet they could never fully remove it. That constant cycle reminded people of their need for atonement. As Pastor Ken will tell you today, everything changed when Jesus gave His life for you. His sacrifice was perfect and complete, offered on...

We can sometimes think sharing our faith means having all the right answers or winning every argument. That pressure can keep us from speaking up at all. But God hasn’t called us to convince people through debate; He’s called us to faithfully share what He has done in our own lives. Today, Pastor Ken will tell you that your personal story of God’s grace and transforming power can speak louder than...

We often carry burdens that were never meant to rest on our shoulders. We rely on our own strength, trying to solve every problem, control every outcome, and hold everything together. It’s no wonder we become worried, anxious, and afraid. But God never asked us to depend on ourselves. Pastor Ken will explain to you today that the Christian life is lived by trusting in God’s overwhelming strength i...

We live in a world that encourages us to chase popularity, approval, and acceptance. But as followers of Jesus, we’re called to value something far greater than being liked. In fact, Jesus warned that those who faithfully follow Him would face rejection because of His name. As Pastor Ken will tell you today, your goal isn’t to win the world’s applause but to remain faithful to Christ. You don’t ha...

Forgiveness is one of the hardest things to master in life. It seems like when we want to forgive someone, our hearts harden to the idea because we want justice. The truth is, Jesus forgave you, and that should be more than enough reason to forgive someone fully. Without Christ, you’re condemned to eternal separation from God, but with Christ, you’re promised a new creation! Today, Pastor Ken remi...

When you’re siblings with someone, things in life mean more, which makes it easier to get upset with them. But you can’t hold onto your anger because you know the next morning they’re going to be right there. After all, family’s permanent. Today, Pastor Ken says that when you’re at church, you’re with your family, and problems will arise. So, when you feel tension, you must bring it up! It’s unhea...

Have you ever had a craving for a specific kind of food? Most of the time, we end up getting what we want because we must satisfy our heart’s desire. Today, pastor Ken says you must fight the desire to satisfy your flesh. Don’t let the enemy win! Every day, you must make the conscious decision to follow Jesus above all. He loves you and will satisfy every need you have! You must trust in Him and b...

The word submission has become a word that has negative connotations to it. Today, Pastor Ken reminds women that Submission does not mean obey. If your husband calls you to do something that’ll damage your testimony, don’t do it. You can be respectful while still politely declining. Ultimately, your relationship with Jesus matters more. Trust Jesus to lead you in those moments! Run to Him when you...

When a player gets traded from one team to another, the whole outlook of their career could change. The expectations put on them are different; the role they’re in may be different; even the way the coach utilizes them will be different. In today’s message, Pastor Ken says that when you choose to follow Jesus, your life is drastically changed for the better. Your outlook on life is different, and...

Have you noticed how the world has started to normalize divorce? It’s interesting because it seems like the Bible is extremely clear that divorce isn’t okay, and yet we seem to be becoming numb to it. Today, Pastor Ken shares that divorce was also normalized in Biblical times. The enemy wants to desensitize you to purity. You must remind yourself of who God calls you to be so you can know what’s o...

Have you ever been given something that you didn’t deserve? It doesn’t happen often, but when it does, it gives us a weird feeling inside, and we start to ask the question: Should I accept this or not? In today’s message, Pastor Ken says you can’t forget that Jesus died for your sins. It’s your reason to respond with faithfulness to Him! He didn’t have to die, but He chose to because He loves you!...

How many of you have gone over the speed limit this past week? I know I have; it’s not an uncommon thing to do! It’s so easy to let your foot push the gas pedal just a little bit to go faster than what’s acceptable. Today, Pastor Ken says you must submit to authority because it’s honoring to the Lord. Now, if the government asks you to do something that’s not of Christ, you stand firm on your trut...

Some things in life are essential to everyday living. For example, you should exercise every day to maintain good health, or you must drink a lot of water so you’re hydrated and don't pass out, or finally, you should be getting adequate sleep so that you can function in your workplace. Those are just a few things, but today, Pastor Ken says one of those things must be to follow Jesus wholeheartedl...

In school, it’s easy to follow what the teacher says, but isn’t it one of the most satisfying feelings when you tell a teacher they have something wrong and you’re right? Those times only come when you’ve done your studying and know the content that they’re reviewing! Today, Pastor Ken says you must be knowledgeable in Scripture so that you can know what’s of God and what’s not. To get to that poi...

Have you ever tried to keep up with someone who’s a faster runner than you? You keep up for a couple of minutes, then burn out quickly because it’s not the right pace for you. Today, Pastor Ken says you must be careful running with the culture. It may feel good in the moment, but sooner rather than later, you’ll find that the culture is pulling you away from God. You must know what’s right and wro...

It seems like the world around us is starting to silence Christians. You see people ostracizing those who follow Jesus because of their beliefs on a certain topic. Today, Pastor Ken says that this is because Christianity isn’t providing the consensus for our society. This makes it imperative that you know the Word of God so that you can know what’s of God and what’s of this world. Trust in Him and...

All people – Jew, Gentile, male, female, rich, poor – people of all kinds can become a part of this spiritual nation of Jesus followers. As Pastor Ken will point out in today’s message, this family is open to all. The only requirement is placing your faith in Jesus as your Lord and Savior. When you make that choice, citizenship is granted immediately. We sometimes assume that certain groups are to...

Regardless of your opinion on recent events in the Middle East or Israel’s role in them, it’s important to remember that God is not done with Israel. As Pastor Ken will explain in today’s message, it’s clear in Scripture that God still has a plan for His chosen nation. They were chosen to be a blessing to all other nations, which they have done in a big way through Jesus. God will draw a remnant o...

On the cross, Jesus tore down the spiritual and physical barriers that separated all of us from interacting directly with God. As Pastor Ken will point out in today’s message, this is a point where Christianity separates itself from its Jewish orthodox roots, as well as religions such as Islam. They have a special place where God or Allah presides. In Christ, the presence of God is brought right i...

Is that true of your life? Would the people around you look at you and say that Jesus is your source of life? Or have you allowed the ways of the world and the pull of your fleshly desires to overtake you? As Pastor Ken continues our study in the book of 1st Peter today, he’ll challenge us to contemplate these questions seriously. Our lives should look different, as individual followers of Christ,...
