Waynesboro FM Church Sermons

Don’t worry about anything, but in everything, through prayer and petition with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7 To support this ministry, visit www.waynesborofm.com/give  

"Remember your leaders who have spoken God’s word to you. As you carefully observe the outcome of their lives, imitate their faith." Hebrews 13:7 To support this ministry, visit www.waynesborofm.com/give  

When the winds rise and the waves crash, fear can take over—unless you know who’s in the boat with you. In Matthew 8, the disciples panic in the storm, but Jesus speaks peace into the chaos. What if the presence of God in your life doesn’t mean storms won’t come—but that you never face them alone? Join us as we explore how God's indwelling presence makes us brave.

Jonah's story isn't just about God's mercy toward a wicked city—it's about His mercy toward a stubborn prophet. While Nineveh's deliverance grabs the headlines, the final scene zooms in on Jonah's heart, exposing a deeper struggle that echoes in all of us. This week, we’re asking the piercing question Jonah wrestled with, and we must as well: Are you okay with God loving your enemies? To support t...

As we draw near to the end of Jonah’s story, He’s been a first-hand witness to God doing unbelievable miracles AND ministry to reform a whole society far from God, yet we still find a storm raging… not on the sea, but in Jonah's own heart. The story of Jonah leaves us with a cliff-hanger: Does Jonah ever change? Here we find yet another example in the Word of what we all need for true transformati...

What if all the truth in the Bible could be summed up in a five-word sentence? As Jonah sinks into the sea, powerless to save himself, he discovers the truth that echoes through all of Scripture: “Salvation belongs to the LORD!” This Easter, come and see how God meets us in the depths—and brings us to life.

In the next part of Jonah’s story, it’s the pagan sailors—not the Lord's prophet—who have more spiritual awareness, who show more compassion, who fear the Lord, pray earnestly, and respond in worship. Jonah, the one with God’s word, would rather be thrown overboard than turn back to obedience to his God. In a surprising twist, God uses them to expose him. Could the same be happening today? Join us...

No one likes to talk about it, but deep down, we all know it’s true: our sin has consequences. The choices we make and the actions we take can disrupt relationships, damage our own lives, and cause harm in ways we don’t always see. But perhaps the most terrifying reality from Jonah’s story this week is this—we can be completely asleep to the destruction our sin is bringing. Are we awake to what Go...

Throughout the ages, our God has repeatedly proven himself to be merciful and gracious, forgiving sin, and blessing abundantly. But what happens when we meet an Israelite prophet who doesn’t like that about God and decides to rebel instead of obey when the Lord calls Him? Come find out this and way more as we start our new series through God’s word in the book Jonah — The Prodigal Prophet of a Gra...

Christ is continually at work in those who belong to Him, shaping and molding us into His likeness. One of His greatest works is to convince us of and help us live in our true identity as His followers. Among the many things He graciously declares us to be, there’s only one that He says will help increase our faith… and that is that we are “unworthy servants.” To support this ministry, visit www.w...

How does the church partner with Christ in seeing people reconciled in all things? 1 John 3:18 "Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth." Hear from our family pastor talk about ways how a local organization, Love INC , equips churches to love people not only with their words, but their actions.

We are a people set apart, called by our heavenly Father to live the Jesus Way... to give a blessing when we are cursed, to forgive when we are hurt, to love when we are hated. As beautiful and right this ideal is, there's one lingering question: how? How can we live so radically? The simple answer is: where are you looking?

When we think of a “calling,” we often picture a life mission—our purpose, passion, a moment we were made for. While it’s true that every follower of Jesus has a calling, Scripture describes it less as a grand mission statement and more as a way of life. Our true calling is to live the Jesus Way.

If you live long enough in this world, you soon learn that suffering is inevitable. Out-of-control hardships come in all shapes and sizes and never seem to wait for you to get ready for them—they hit when they want to, and all our plans get lost in the dust clouds of the collision. How are we, who are in Christ and sons and daughters of a good and holy God, to endure the suffering that He allows i...

For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal. 2 Corinthians 4:17-18 To support this ministry, visit www.waynesborofm.com/give  

In The Lord’s Prayer, Jesus gives us much more than a pattern for prayer, He gives us prayer priorities. As we look to the second part of these priorities, we’ll continue to look to not just learn a routine but to experience all Jesus gives to us in His prayer. Again, do you want to experience prayer the way Jesus taught us to pray? To support this ministry, visit www.waynesborofm.com/give  

As we continue in this season of prayer and fasting and this series on prayer, we turn our minds and hearts to how Jesus told us we should pray, a model for prayer given to us by “He who lives to make intercession for us.” And though it is a prayer that has been quoted millions of times throughout the ages, many haven’t yet experienced it. Do you want to experience prayer the way Jesus taught us t...

We're in week two of our annual new-year sermon series, PRAYER•OLOGY, centering all our goals and ambitions for this new year in the heart of seeking God's face and trusting His hand. Today, we'll be led in a thorough examination of the motives of our prayer lives, especially when it comes to praying with others. In it all, we'll see two amazing, prayer-life-shaping truths that will revolutionize...

With all the resolutions we've set, changes we want to see, and goals we want to accomplish in this New Year, do any of them involve your PRAYER LIFE? With the start of this new year, we are going to center our meditations, studies, events, and lives on prayer and fasting as we start this annual New Year's series, PRAYER•OLOGY, and kick off HUNGER TOGETHER, a season of prayer and fasting. To suppo...

How, then, can they call on him they have not believed in? And how can they believe without hearing about him? And how can they hear without a preacher? And how can they preach unless they are sent?

 For in this hope we were saved. Now hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for what he sees? But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience. Romans 8:24-25 To support this ministry, visit www.waynesborofm.com/give

What does it look like to live out our faith in tangible, impactful ways? In this week’s passage, the Apostle Paul urges us to be devoted to doing good works—not as a way to earn God's favor or saving grace, but as a natural response to the grace we've received. This Sunday, we’ll explore how living a life of kindness, service, and love transforms our lives and the world around us. To support this...
