Walking in Truth

The Israelites were enslaved by the Babylonians for 70 whole years. Eventually, the children of Israel became complacent and gave in to the reality of their Babylonian captivity... And in today's message, Pastor Johnny will remind you that sometimes you can give in to the reality of the hold that your sin has on your life... But it doesn't have to be that way. The Lord promises that if you call ou...

We live in a world ripe with injustice. And so often, we become angry with the gap between how things are and how they ought to be. As Christians, we’re called to seek justice; and yet, as Pastor Johnny points out today, the Bible makes clear that justice will not come to fullness until God’s judgment of all mankind. Because of this truth, we can have peace and rest in the reality that one day all...

As people living in a world broken by the effects of sin, we all find ourselves turning away from God from time to time.

As Pastor Johnny teaches through the book of Judges today, we see a portion of Israel’s history reminiscent of all human history – up to this day. Despite God’s goodness and promises, people always turn away from Him and to worthless things. God is a fountain of living water that nourishes and satisfies us, but over and over again we neglect Him and attempt to gather water from empty wells. But in...

Today, as Pastor Johnny teaches the story of Abimelech – son of Gideon – we see the universal truths that these texts expose about leaders. Leaders who only desire their own power and selfish ambitions continue to rise up, just like Abimelech. And when people turn away from God and toward these leaders, it never ends well. As followers of Jesus, we are not to put our faith in humans, but in God hi...

While the story of Gideon is promising for a while, it eventually takes a turn. As Pastor Johnny points out today, Gideon made the right decision by refusing the people’s request to make him king – instead of reminding them that God is their king. But we soon question his heart in the matter, as Gideon goes on to make a monument to himself and becomes an idol to the people. Pastor Johnny uses this...

As Pastor Johnny teaches about the story of Gideon today, he brings attention to a shift we see in Gideon’s character. While Gideon entered the scene as a cowardly farmer hiding from the enemy, he has developed into a confident man who is mature enough to put his own pride in check to resolve disputes. Pastor Johnny shows how we likewise ought to put our pride in check and remember Jesus’ call on...

Gideon didn't think he was anyone special. God called him, and he didn't believe it at first. He was the least in his family, which was the least in their clan. He really seemed like nobody. But, he followed God in faith, and the rest is history. As Pastor Johnny encourages you today with Gideon's story, take some time to think, “do I have at least that much faith – that when God calls me, I follo...

Do you know what God's will is for your life? Do you know what everyone is called to when they come to know Christ personally? He wants you to go out and TELL others about Him! And, as you'll see mentioned today by Pastor Johnny, you should do it in joy, so people will WANT to know about the hope that you have. Others may be afraid to step out in faith, and some may not yet know that to which they...

There are two roles you can fill as a follower of Christ. You can be the leader that points others to Christ and moves people closer to Him, or you can be submitted to someone in leadership to serve God through helping others lead. Pastor Johnny's going to show you today how you need one or the other because to sit back and do nothing wastes the resources God's given you to serve Him with and make...

Men should be the spiritual leaders of their home and should be bold in doing so. It's a noble calling from God that requires responsibility, that every man needs to step up to. As you'll get to see today with Pastor Johnny, sometimes men might be afraid to step up, and women take the role. And as you'll also see from the example today, men, just like Barak in the book of Judges, sometimes might b...
