Bay State Baptist Church's Podcast

Self control and anger are like water and oil, they just don't mix.

Lust is an unhealthy attachment to an unholy thing.

If you have the energy for the things you love, but refuse to tackle what's in front of you.... thats laziness.

The Solution to pride is honesty, the answer to arrogance is authenticity.

Christianity didn't invent or introduce a sin problem, it simply identified THE problem and offers THE solution.

Prophecies about the future done overrule the current calling God has placed on your life. The world. might change but your mission doesn't. 

We aren't fully in control of what happens around us, but we are able to control what we choose to do despite what is around us.

Pastor Bryan continues our series through Daniel

“You can't want your way into a godly life. You can't want your way into a healthy marriage. You can't want your way into high character. You can't want your way to God, because you can't just want change, you need to NEED change”

“You need people in your life who aren't just there to make you feel better. You need friends who will honestly challenge you to BE better”

If the Bible was the definer of truth for the early church, it still should be the definer of truth for you and I today .

The Old Testament tells the story of humanity exhausting every possible solution outside of God, The New Testament tells the story of meeting Humanity's deepest need.

This week we have Evan Steel continuing our series Old books going through the Old Testament.

If you believe the Bible is TRUE, then it's not enough to think you are RIGHT. You must Live like it's TRUE.

Pastor Bryan is back continuing our read through First John in our series Living in the Light

Real faith affects real life- If your faith never affects your "Real Life" then it isn't a real part of your life.

Seeing yourself as a child of God frees you to see who you're actually living for.

Our Lives don't always match up to what we expect or what we expect god expects.

The Christian faith isn't built on an idea,  its built on a person and a specific event called the resurrection.

God may not have INITIATED your pain, but He does have an INTENTION for your pain.

We have special guest Pastor Aaron Kaeble from New Life Community Fellowship out of Pittsfield MA  Pastor Aaron finishes up our Series Last Pick

Maybe in the pursuit of our own success we've let the American Dream blur our conviction about God's Dream.

It's hard to expect God to heal us when we are still clinging to what's harming us.

Jesus spent time with, invested in, ate with and did life with reputation ruiners.

Easter Sunday "The FIRST people to be forgiven by the crucified savior were the very people killing Him. Jesus started with people who had the most damage and the people who were most damaged."

If everything is only as true as YOU  decide it is, we don't have anything trustworthy to stand on.

Fighting fire with Fire

Pastor Steven talks about how to work hard while trusting God! "God's favour rarely rests upon people who assume they have it."

Pastor Steven Lucas preaches about how we can show true love towards our neighbor as Jesus commanded.

Asking God for forgiveness, regularly, honestly, and sincerely opens you up to experiencing more of His Love.

We all live in a world of being diagnosed, we all have problems, pain baggage etc. We can either choose to react or respond.

Our relationships shape everything about us.

People often bring their old laws to their new faith.

ALL of God existed in Jesus, so everything God wanted you to know about Him is seen in Jesus

Sabbath is not a day without purpose, it is a day to remind you of your greatest purpose, to connect deeper with God.

"Fasting without prayer is just a diet, they are a package deal" Pastor Steve Continues the Abide Series talking about how fasting and how we can grow closer to God in doing it.
