Eastland Baptist Messages

In this message from the book of 3 John, Isaac Mardirosian examines what authentic Christianity looks like in our daily lives. By contrasting the faithful charity of Gaius with the prideful preeminence of Diotrephes, he illustrates how our treatment of others, especially missionaries and fellow believers, is a direct reflection of our personal relationship with God. The sermon challenges us to move beyond simply knowing the right words to truly knowing the Shepherd, urging listeners to faithfully demonstrate their love for God by actively encouraging and supporting fellow helpers of the truth.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

In this message, Pastor Dorrell examines the principle of sacrifice from 1 Corinthians 9, explaining that for the gospel to advance, a "necessary transaction" must occur. Using the apostle Paul as the ultimate example of one who gave up everything to "gain" others for Christ, this sermon investigates the cost of missions. Pastor Dorrell challenges us to consider what personal comforts or resources we are willing to set aside so that people around the world might have the chance to hear the good news and be saved.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Continuing the series in the Book of Numbers, Pastor Dorrell examines the specific, orderly instructions God gave for the Israelite encampment in chapter 2. This detailed arrangement around the central Tabernacle reveals a core attribute of God: He is a God of order, not chaos. This principle of divine structure extends from the precise balance of the universe to the design for our own lives. Pastor Dorrell explores how applying this concept of keeping God at the center brings necessary order to our personal walk, our families, and our commitment to the local church, ultimately challenging us to consider what truly sits at the hub of our lives.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

In this concluding message from the series on Proverbs 4, Pastor Daniel examines the practical application of living a life of wisdom. Building on the foundational instruction to "keep thy heart with all diligence," this sermon unpacks Solomon's advice on how to guard the control center of your life. Discover three critical areas that require intentional focus: the words you speak, the direction of your gaze, and the path your feet take. Learn how making conscious, deliberate choices in your communication, focus, and actions can lead to an established life that is secure, honors God, and prepares you not just for today, but for eternity.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

In our Christian freedom, it's easy to focus on our rights and what we are permitted to do. But what if true spiritual maturity is found in willingly setting those rights aside? Pastor Dorrell examines 1 Corinthians 9, where the Apostle Paul uses his own life as a powerful example of deference. Paul gave up his right to financial support, choosing to work and even go hungry, so that nothing would stand in the way of the Gospel's message for the Corinthian church. This sermon introduces the principle of "relative sacrifice," challenging us to consider how we can live for something bigger than ourselves. It is a call to intentionally lay down our preferences and comforts for the well-being of others and the advancement of the Gospel, reminding us that we are running a race not for a temporary prize, but for an incorruptible crown.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

In this introduction to the Book of Numbers, Pastor Dorrell examines the often-overlooked story of Israel's 40-year journey in the wilderness. Using the analogy that after the "wedding" at Sinai comes the "marriage," this sermon explores the real-life journey of faith with all its challenges. Focusing on the census in the first chapter, the message unpacks God's call for His people to be counted, signifying a universal expectation of commitment and participation. This sermon challenges believers to embrace the responsibility that comes with being part of God's family, highlighting that the rewards of belonging, fellowship, and shared victory far outweigh any sacrifice required.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

In a world where we meticulously protect our phones with cases and screen protectors, do we show the same diligence in guarding our hearts? Continuing in Proverbs 4, Pastor Andrew focuses on one of the most vital commands in scripture: to guard your heart above all else. Using powerful analogies of an unlatched gate and a water filter, he illustrates how the heart is the source from which our entire life flows. This message explores the practical ways we can tune our ears to God's voice, treasure His Word as a filter for life's impurities, and actively protect ourselves from the influences that seek to contaminate our souls. It's a stirring challenge to "check the gate" of your heart, because what you allow in will ultimately determine the direction of your life.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

In this message, Pastor Dorrell addresses the complex topic of Christian liberty using 1 Corinthians 8 as a guide. He explores the historical conflict in the Corinthian church over eating meat sacrificed to idols to reveal a timeless principle: knowledge must be governed by love. While we may have the freedom to do something, our choices must be filtered through a consideration for how they affect others. This sermon offers practical guidelines for navigating modern "gray areas," challenging us to exercise our freedom not just based on what is permissible, but on what is loving and edifying to the church body.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

In a world that glorifies busyness, how do we make space for what truly matters? Drawing from 1 Corinthians 7 and a key principle in Ecclesiastes 4:6, Pastor Dorrell discusses the spiritual danger of an over-cluttered life. He explains that our constant hurry, endless responsibilities, and accumulation of things—even good things—can prevent us from hearing God's voice and experiencing His peace. This message offers a practical challenge to choose "a handful with quietness" over a life full of "travail and vexation of spirit," freeing ourselves from distraction to better attend upon the Lord and find true spiritual rest.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

In this message, Pastor Daniel explores the profound choice presented in Proverbs 4 between the two paths available in life. Using Solomon's urgent instruction to his son as a guide, he illustrates the critical difference between the path of the just—which shines brighter over time like a rising dawn—and the path of the wicked, a deceptive road that descends into darkness and causes one to stumble. This sermon serves as a powerful call to self-reflection, urging us to consider which direction our decisions and attitudes are taking us. It is a challenge to consciously choose the way of wisdom, hold fast to it, and avoid the subtle but powerful pull toward a life of folly and regret.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

In this message from 1 Corinthians, Pastor Dorrell addresses the common feeling that we could serve God better if only our circumstances were different. Drawing from Paul's instruction to the Corinthian church, this sermon challenges the idea that we need a new job, a different marital status, or a change of location to be effective for Christ. Instead, we are called to view our current life as a divine assignment. Discover how your workplace, neighborhood, and family are the unique and consequential mission field God has given you, and learn to embrace the purpose you can fulfill right where you are, today.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Life can often feel overwhelming, with daily pressures and major decisions causing stress and anxiety. Using the story of Jesus calming the storm in Mark chapter 4, Jason Cohan explores a powerful alternative to fear. He presents three foundational truths to anchor our faith when we feel we might perish: God has a specific plan for our lives, He always cares for our best interest, and He maintains absolute control over every storm we face. This message challenges us to exchange our worry for a profound peace that comes from trusting in the sovereignty of the one whom even the winds and the sea obey.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Kicking off a new series in Proverbs chapter 4, Pastor Daniel examines why wisdom is called "the principal thing." He defines true wisdom not as worldly knowledge, but as a spiritual understanding that sees life from an eternal perspective, making it far more valuable than wealth, power, or success. Highlighting the critical responsibility of passing this treasure from one generation to the next, Pastor Daniel challenges listeners to actively and intentionally pursue wisdom at all costs. This message explores the lifelong cycle of getting and giving wisdom, showing how this singular pursuit guards, promotes, and enriches every aspect of our lives.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Pastor Dorrell examines the challenging and sensitive topic of marriage, divorce, and remarriage by navigating through key passages in the New and Old Testaments. He explains God's original intent for marriage as a sacred, lifelong covenant, while also addressing the difficult exceptions of infidelity and abandonment that arise from the "hardness of heart." Ultimately, this message calls believers to honor the sanctity of their current marriage, offers hope and redemption for those who have experienced the tragedy of divorce, and encourages all to reflect Christ's restorative love within their most intimate relationship.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

In this challenging conclusion to our series in the Book of Judges, Pastor Dorrell examines the horrific and shocking narrative of chapters 19-21. This single, brutal story of a Levite, his concubine, and a subsequent civil war serves as a graphic illustration of what happens when a nation has no king and, as the text says, "every man did that which was right in his own eyes." This message unpacks how this ancient account exposes the devastating consequences of moral relativism, drawing a direct parallel to our modern culture that prizes personal truth over absolute standards. It is a vital warning about what happens when human solutions are applied to spiritual problems and a powerful call to anchor our lives in the unchanging truth of God's Word.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

We all care what other people think about us, but what if our primary concern was what God thinks—specifically, about our words and our innermost thoughts? In this message, Pastor John examines the powerful prayer found in Psalm 19:14, "Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight." He explores the unbreakable link between our inner life and our outward expression, challenging us to identify the things that compete with God for first place in our hearts. This sermon serves as a practical guide to aligning our focus, taming our tongue, and living a fully integrated life that is pleasing to God by depending on Him as our ultimate strength and redeemer.

Following up on the discussion of immorality in the culture, Pastor Dorrell turns to 1 Corinthians 7:1-9 to address the sanctity and potential pitfalls within marriage. He unpacks the Apostle Paul's direct instructions regarding physical intimacy, explaining that it is a God-given gift meant exclusively for the marital covenant. This sermon confronts the common but unbiblical extremes of either worldly indulgence or a rigid, joyless abstinence. Pastor Dorrell challenges married couples to see intimacy not as a weapon or bargaining chip, but as a mutual, joyful responsibility and a selfless gift that protects the union from temptation and strengthens the bond of becoming "one flesh" in a way that honors God's design.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

The story of Micah and the tribe of Dan in Judges 17-18 illustrates a dark period in Israel's history where "every man did that which is right in his own eyes." Pastor Dorrell examines this sobering narrative of stolen silver, household idols, and a priest-for-hire to reveal the profound dangers of a faith based on personal convenience. This message challenges us to consider our own motives, asking whether our spiritual lives are truly guided by the authority of Scripture or if we have created a customized Christianity that suits our personal preferences.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Continuing the series in Psalm 19, Pastor Andrew shifts the focus from God's glory in creation to the role of His Word as a mirror for our own hearts. This message explores the two kinds of sin David prays about: the "secret faults" we are blind to and the "presumptuous sins" we knowingly commit. Through compelling illustrations, you will see how unaddressed sin distorts the image of God in our lives and learn why we must humbly allow Scripture to expose our blind spots. This sermon is a powerful call to depend on God's Word daily to cleanse us and protect us from the destructive dominion of sin.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

In this message from 1 Corinthians 6, Pastor Dorrell examines the Apostle Paul's urgent correction to a church that had mistaken Christian liberty for a license to indulge. The Corinthians' catchphrases—"All things are permissible" and "Meats for the belly"—are countered with the profound truths that not all things are beneficial and that we must not be mastered by our appetites. Pastor Dorrell applies Paul's teaching that our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit to our modern, gratification-pleasing culture, challenging us to flee from temptation, cultivate self-mastery, and consciously honor God in our bodies and spirits, which are His.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

In this sermon, Pastor Dorrell examines the final chapter of Samson's life from Judges 16, presenting a powerful cautionary tale about how a person's greatest strengths can be undone by their moral weaknesses. This message explores the life of a man blessed with immense potential and divine power, who repeatedly surrendered to his own passions and indulgences.

Through vivid imagery and practical application, he challenges listeners to cultivate an intentional awareness of God by observing the natural world and recognizing the message it continually preaches.

In this powerful message from Judges 14, Pastor Dorrell explores the tragic character of Samson—a man chosen by God yet ruled by his appetites. Through the story of Samson's impulsive pursuit of a Philistine woman, his disregard for his Nazarite vow, and his manipulation of others for personal gain, we see a sobering picture of what happens when indulgence overtakes discipline.
