You've changed from who you once were, but you still carry the scars of your past. God granted you a birthright that you've been hesitating to embrace. In Genesis 32, the right to lead was designated for the younger of the twins. The elder, Esau, was destined to serve his younger brother, Jacob, but it seemed unjust. What do you do when God bestows you with a role that feels undeserved? When you are chosen but hesitant to accept the mission? God is urging you to fully embrace the gift He has given you.

Pastor James Epperly delivers a compelling sermon titled "The Blessing of Esau." He delves into the difficulties faced by those raised in an era where receiving a blessing appears unattainable. Have you ever experienced the need to fade into the background to avoid confrontation, or felt a lack of love and support within your own household? This sermon speaks directly to you. Explore the defining traits of homes lacking in blessings, which can inflict lasting emotional scars and leave you questioning your worth. Gain insight into how to confront the obstacles presented by an Esau-like upbringing, and liberate yourself from the shackles of past emotional distress.

In this message, Pastor James Epperly teaches on the life of Jacob and the power of living under an open Heaven as we yield ourselves to His working in our lives. Our prayer is that this message will inspire faith in your heart to see God do what you could never have imagined was possible.

Jesus is Good News! In this message from Pastor James Epperly highlights the importance of spreading the same message that John the Baptist preached long ago. Just as John proclaimed to the world that Jesus is Good News, we are called to do the same today. Jesus' message is one of redemption for all, and we are now entrusted with the task of sharing it with the world.

This message gives insight on how to maintain the desire to be a witness for Christ. It explains the importance of cultivating the two sides of the gospel. One side being the glorious gospel & all Jesus did for us through redemption. The other is the reality of the lostness of people without Christ.

In this powerful message, we explore the parable of the Good Samaritan and its profound implications for our lives. We're challenged to examine which 'chair' we're sitting in - the villain, the victim, the bystander, or the good neighbor. As followers of Christ, we're called to occupy only one role: the good neighbor.

In this powerful message, we're reminded of the profound importance of loving our neighbors as ourselves. This isn't just a nice suggestion, but a core principle repeated throughout Scripture, from Leviticus to the Gospels and Epistles. We're challenged to see this command as the pattern of life in God's kingdom, contrasting sharply with the world's ways. It's a call to lift our neighborhoods through small acts of kindness and to recognize that proximity, not sameness, defines our neighbors.

This message explores the power of pursuing God. Just as Elijah called for a drought to turn Israel back to God, we can declare a drought to 'dry up' the things in our lives that have pushed God to the back seat. By turning our focus back to God, we declare that we want God to be our priority again and to lead every aspect of our lives.

There is great power in the blood of Jesus. All too often, the real value of the divine blood of Jesus has been ignored by the Christian world; but man's greatest connection to God is through the divine blood. Life-changing salvation only comes through the blood of Jesus. It not only affects our eternal salvation, but has so much power to transform a life for the here and now!
