Welcome to the Unity Baptist Church sermon podcast! Have you ever had to do something for someone else? I’m not talking about a good deed, although it can be classified as that if your motives are right. I use to work as a carpet cleaning technician for a prominent carpet cleaning business in our area. Summer was always busy. I got a call from our supervisor and he asked me if I could come in and...

Welcome to the Unity Baptist Church sermon podcast! All paths have a purpose of destination. Every person you see is on a path. As an outdoorsman, I enjoy going out into the woods, or as my kids call it, “the deer woods.” Depending on what path I take will determine the difficulty of travel and time. If we are honest with one another, the easier the better right? I have learned, that kind of think...

Welcome to the Unity Baptist Church sermon podcast! When I became a home owner, our home had little to no landscaping. This is where the “Honey-do” list started. We spent some money and invested the time and labor to spruce up our home’s curb appeal. It looked great! After a year, we noticed something very annoying. Weeds. They sprouted everywhere and tried to take over the landscaping! Naturally,...

Welcome to the Unity Baptist Church sermon podcast! What is the most humble act you can do for someone else? I know, it’s completely counter cultural to embrace being humble. If you look out your window, you see a world that is calling for each person to do what’s true to them. Humility is something that is not natural. It is within our human nature to be filled with pride. Pride not kept in check...

Welcome to the Unity Baptist Church sermon podcast! Introductions are one of the greatest opportune moments that give us a taste of what is to come. How do you introduce yourself to others?

Welcome to the Unity Baptist Church sermon podcast! Who do you put your trust in? In 1956, President Dwight Eisenhower signed a joint resolution from Congress stating “In God We Trust” as the United States national motto. For the first time, on October 1, 1957, this motto was printed on the back side of the dollar bill.

Welcome to the Unity Baptist Church sermon podcast! Do you ever feel like you need to hit a reset button in your life? If we allow it, we can let our lives get so busy and distracted from what is most important. The business controls and manipulates everything we end up doing. When we allow this to happen, the most important things about life get buried and sometimes forgotten. This week we are lo...

Welcome to the Unity Baptist Church sermon podcast! Has there every been a time where you wronged someone? I remember when I was around the age of 10, I was outside playing with one of my younger sisters. We were at my great grandmother’s house enjoying the summer evening playing tag in the back yard. For some reason, my sister “hit” me really hard. So, I grabbed her by the shoulders and turned he...

Welcome to the Unity Baptist Church sermon podcast! What comes to your mind when you hear the word or phrase “fasting.” Maybe your like me and immediately think about the new diet fads that have embraced the science of fasting, or maybe your mind just went straight to, “no food!

Welcome to the Unity Baptist Church sermon podcast! What is it that keeps your mind on Christ? How often do you go back to the moments that drew you near to God?

Welcome to the Unity Baptist Church sermon podcast! What does the model citizen look like in our day and age? We all would have some opinions about how a citizen of the United States should look like. Many of us would hope that they would agree to and live by our local, state and government laws. That would mean, a person would need to submit. Do you have a hard time submitting to authority? Do yo...
