Worship Life Today

What are the ways in which we walk with God? There are boundaries God set for us to walk in. We don’t barter or argue with God, we just try to obey all His ways in all we do and say. We try to obey His commands. By obeying His commands, we are showing our love for Him and demonstrating that we trust His guidance and direction. Today, Pastor Holland takes us deeper into what it means to walk with G...

There are many gods in our world that rule and reign us in all directions. We have to decide whom we will follow. Will it be Almighty God or another god? We can’t teach our children and families about the virtues of God if we don’t know Him ourselves. Many forces are vying for the lives of our children and families. In today’s message, Pastor Holland discusses the importance of having a personal r...

There is a huge cultural war going on in our world that wants to change and alter who God made us to be. We are bombarded every day with messages to ‘ fix’ this flaw or that imperfection. We are groomed by TV and social media to not be content with who and how God made us. The enemy wants us to think God made a mistake when he made “me.” Pastor Holland takes us through scripture today to explain h...

What is meant when we hear the word holiness? Many thoughts might go to someone with angel wings floating on a cloud in heaven. It’s a popular belief that holiness is something that we achieve based on our behavior. A national study showed that 73% of ADULTS , not exclusively Christians, believe it is possible to achieve holiness. In today’s message, Pastor Holland takes an in-depth study of holin...

Have you heard someone say that the Old Testament is not as relevant as the New Testament? That there’s a different standard for correctness for the New Testament than for the Old Testament. We have many prophecies delivered almost all the time during a newscast or special government announcement. We have to ask, did it come true? Does this person have a reputation or ‘track record’ of being corre...

It is normal to be a little skeptical of someone ‘claiming’ to have a prophetic word about someone or something. After all, they ARE giving a ‘prediction’ about someone or something. Only God knows the future and things to come. We have government officials who ‘claim’ that something will happen if we don’t do this or that. They appear to know, but they really don’t . In today’s message, Pastor Ho...

When you hear the term ‘prophet’ used in a statement, do you think of an older bearded man wearing a long robe? It’s natural to only associate a prophet with someone in the religious world. However, we have many so-called prophets active in our society today. There are news anchors, world leaders, government officials, and self-proclaimed experts who think they are prophets. But, they are really f...

“Emmanuel, God with us.” As you listen to today’s message from Pastor Holland, he explains to you that humankind was never supposed to live separated from God. God created us to dwell with Him. But that all changed when sin entered the picture. Sin separates us from our loving Father. Pastor Holland encourages each and every person to receive Jesus as their Savior. When you receive Jesus you’re no...

Have you ever read a passage of scripture that struck you as just a little bit weird? Throughout the Bible, there are many verses and even entire chapters that often take a lot of studying to begin to understand… And in today’s message, Pastor Holland will encourage you to dig deep into your study of the Bible! Nothing in the Bible was put there as filler or fluff! While a verse may seem a bit of...

Have you found that some words and phrases seem to take on a different meaning as you learn more about their origins? The Jewish people used many descriptive words and phrases to express their desire for deeper relationships with God. Jesus used descriptive phrases to express His promise of eternal life through Him. Today, Pastor Holland takes us through some scriptures where these words were not...

Separation from the people who help us feel we are normal, accepted, and wanted, can be a very isolating feeling. We get a sincere sense of being totally alone by that separation. We were all born separated from God. We are born with a human nature that opposes God’s design of fellowship with Him. In his message today, Pastor Holland takes us through several instances in the scriptures where the p...

Have you ever been at the end of a one-sided relationship? When you constantly have to be the one to schedule time to hang out with someone or check in on them, and then you receive nothing in return. It’s like you don’t even exist until they choose to put effort into the relationship. It’s exhausting, isn’t it? Well, God feels the same way when you choose to put Him off until you really need Him....

Are you a Christian if you believe there is a God? On the surface, you might think that belief in God means you're saved. Unfortunately, just because you believe there is a God doesn’t mean you are going to heaven. There is a much deeper level of commitment that God is looking for beyond just belief. In today’s message, Pastor Holland is going to explore what it really means to call yourself a...

Have you ever experienced unconditional love? That means love without conditions. If you’ve ever experienced this kind of love from a parent, a loved one, a friend, or a pastor, then you know how it almost feels unfair. It feels like you don’t deserve to be forgiven because you’ve wronged them, but they haven’t wronged you. In today’s message, Pastor Holland is going to remind you that this is wha...

Has your heart truly been changed for God? It’s one thing to say that you are a believer in the gospel, but does your life reflect that? You might be trying to earn your way into heaven, but God doesn’t give out rewards based on your merit, your social status, or your bank account. He allows you to enter into His eternal kingdom through your faith in Him, and allowing Him to change you from the in...

Today’s society is a ‘me’ society. Go for it, you deserve it. You can do it! Take it, you earned it. That’s your right. That’s your truth . Oh boy. Those are some dangerous thoughts. It’s not all about us. Folks, you and I came out of the womb. We were knit together to live for one person and one person only. That’s Jesus. He created us. He saved us. The least we can do is put our whole self…body,...

What do you do for love? I know it sounds cliche, but I wonder what the Israelites thought as Moses was speaking to them about their relationship with God. Did they blush in embarrassment or shrug their shoulders in indifference? It’s a dangerous thing when we don’t remember why or how much we love. Pastor Holland clarifies today about how putting our faith in any thing or any body other than Jesu...

Why is it hard to lead by example? Maybe it’s the pressure or the simple fact of not thinking about it. Either way, people are watching us, right? The effect we have on other’s lives hinges on our actions that should be supporting what we BELIEVE. Don’t let people know you only for your love of earthly things, but rather for JESUS! In his message today, Pastor Holland challenges us to remember tha...

Our relationship with Jesus should be like that of the poor widow who searched for her last, lost coin until she found it. It's going after it with every fiber of your being. Mentally, physically, emotionally, spiritually. Leave nothing out. Leave nothing behind. Seek the Lord . Consequently, if you choose not to, Jesus may just take you back to the very beginning. Where sin ran rampant in you...

It’s no secret that all of us have some sort of past that we’re not proud of. Whether we grew up in the church, or just recently became a believer in Jesus, we have all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God; however, the good news is that it doesn’t stop there! Today, Pastor Holland will be sharing a message with us about pressing forward in our faith! This relationship we have with God is n...

Have you ever felt lonely? Have you ever felt like you had no one to help? I have found myself in situations like this before and oftentimes, it’s in those moments that I find Jesus. Today, Pastor Holland is going to be sharing a message with us about stripping away everything of this world and solely focusing on Jesus. This culture we live in is full of distractions and temptations to take our fo...

Have you ever been in a bad situation and wondered why God would allow something like that to happen to you? I know that I have! The truth is, that God doesn’t ever put his children into bondage intentionally. Today, Pastor Holland will be sharing a message with us about how God loves and takes care of His children. Though He never wants to see us suffer through difficulties and trials, He does te...

Do you need refuge from your life? A place where you can relax in peace and safety? In today's message, Pastor Holland associates Jesus with the names of the cities of refuge that God gave to Joshua. There are specific meanings in the names of the six cities mentioned in Joshua 20. These meanings apply to Jesus as our refuge. Jesus is our righteousness. He has the power to save us from the Ave...
