This sermon reminds us that God is near to the brokenhearted and faithful to deliver those who trust in Him. Ultimately, Psalm 34 points us to Jesus Christ, who fulfills God's promise to rescue us from sin and death.

Psalm 33 calls us to joyfully praise the Lord, not out of duty, but in response to who He is. In this message, we explore how Christian joy is expressed, why God is worthy of praise, and how rejoicing in Him builds deeper trust. We see God as the powerful Creator, the faithful Redeemer, and the loving Savior whose plans never fail. As we praise, our hearts are anchored in His steadfast love. This passage invites us to respond to God's greatness with trust, joy, and worship.
In this message from 1 Peter 5:4–10, we're reminded to trust that God cares for us, resist the devil's schemes, and remember Christ's ongoing work in our lives. We face lies, fear, and temptation—but we do so with a Savior who strengthens and restores us. This sermon equips believers to stand firm in faith, cast their anxieties on God, and walk in confident hope. No matter the trial, Christ is with you—and He will see you through.
In a world full of conflicting voices, how do we know who to follow? In 3 John 9–14, the Apostle John contrasts two men—Diotrephes and Demetrius—to show us the difference between prideful leadership and Christlike character. This message challenges us to examine our own hearts and relationships, urging us to imitate what is good and reject what is evil. Join us as we explore how humility, integrity, and truth shape a life worth following.
In this message from 3 John 1–8, we explore the faithful example of Gaius, a man known for his commitment to truth and his generous love for others. The Apostle John prays for Gaius to prosper physically, materially, and spiritually—reminding us to pray holistically for our friends. Gaius' life demonstrates that walking in truth and loving others sacrificially are inseparable in the Christian life. His example challenges us to live Christ-centered lives that bring joy to others and reflect the love of Jesus.
In this message from Malachi 4:4–6, we explore God's final words before 400 years of prophetic silence. Through a call to remember His law, repent, and prepare for the coming Day of the Lord, God reveals His heart of mercy and justice. We'll see how this prophecy was fulfilled in John the Baptist and how it still speaks to us today. Discover how to live with hope, holiness, and restored relationships in light of Christ's return.
In a world where faithfulness often feels overlooked and evil seems to prosper, how do we keep trusting God? This message explores the tension between cynicism and faith through the lens of Malachi 3:16–4:3. Discover how God responds to those who doubt, honors those who remain faithful, and promises a day of healing, justice, and joy. Whether you're feeling weary or walking strong, this sermon offers hope, perspective, and a call to deeper trust in God's timing and character.
What does our giving say about our hearts? In Malachi 3:6–12, God calls His people to return to Him—not just with words, but with faithful generosity. This message explores how God's unchanging nature and abundant grace invite us to trust Him with our resources. Discover how joyful giving reflects a life rooted in worship and dependence on Christ.
When injustice seems to go unpunished, it's easy to wonder if God is really paying attention. In this powerful message from Malachi 2:17–3:5, we explore how God responds to Israel's accusations with a promise—not only of justice, but of purification through His coming Messenger. Discover how this prophecy points to Jesus, the refining work He began, and the final judgment still to come. This sermon will challenge you to trust God's timing, examine your heart, and embrace the refining fire of His righteousness.
This sermon from Malachi 2:10–16 calls God's people to remember their covenant identity and live with faithfulness toward both Him and one another. The Israelites had compromised by marrying unbelievers and breaking their marriage vows, reflecting a deeper spiritual unfaithfulness. God desires relationships marked by loyalty, peace, and integrity. Ultimately, Christ stands as our model of perfect faithfulness, empowering us to reflect His love in all our commitments.
This sermon from Malachi 1:6–2:9 challenges us to examine whether our worship is wholehearted or half-hearted, like the Israelites who dishonored God by offering second-rate sacrifices. It reminds us that God desires our best—not what's convenient—and that true worship flows from a heart anchored in His love. Through Christ, our Great High Priest, we are called to repent and offer sincere, devoted worship in response to His mercy.
