In this “Dollars & Sense” message, Pastor Mike shifts from practical budgeting advice to a deeper spiritual question: Do you truly trust God, especially with your finances? Drawing on Jesus' teachings and passages like Matthew 6 and James 2, he explains that obedience in areas like tithing, stewardship, and generosity is directly connected to faith and trust in God rather than just financial knowledge. He concludes that as believers build trust through God's Word, prayer, and community, obedience becomes a natural response—and financial faithfulness flows from a heart that fully trusts the Lord.

This sermon, part two of the “Dollars & Sense” series, teaches that God cares deeply about how we handle money and that the basics—budgeting, getting out of debt, living on less than you make, saving, and giving—still work when practiced faithfully. Drawing from Scripture and practical principles (including Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace approach), it emphasizes that money is a tool, not a master, and that wise planning leads to peace and freedom. The message challenges listeners to trust God with their finances, commit to biblical habits, and experience joy and generosity as a result.

In Week 3 of the New Beginnings series, we asked the central question of Genesis 22: Will you lay it down? Through Abraham's test and Jesus' challenge to the rich young ruler, we saw that God often reveals our devotion by confronting what we love most, not to take it from us, but to ensure He remains first. The invitation is simple but costly: if anything stands in the way of fully following Jesus, will we trust Him enough to lay it down?

This sermon continues the New Beginnings series by calling the church to be open to what God wants to do for us and from us, emphasizing that God is always creating new life, purpose, and identity. Centered on the power of names, it teaches that God gives His people new names and identities—like forgiven, chosen, and beloved—while urging believers to reject false labels from the world or the enemy and embrace who God says they are. The message concludes with a strong call for 2026 to be a year of deeper discipleship, challenging everyone to live fully as devoted, obedient followers who reflect, imitate, and invite others to Jesus.

This sermon invites the church to begin the year with 21 Days of Fasting and Prayer, emphasizing that fasting is meant to deepen prayer, Bible reading, and focus on God as we seek new beginnings. It teaches that although God never changes, He is always doing something new, calling believers to trust Him for fresh faith, transformation, and miracles in their lives. Finally, it challenges each person to consecrate themselves to God by giving Him greater commitment through spiritual disciplines, church involvement, and obedience, believing He will do wonders in 2026.

This sermon celebrates the third week of Advent by focusing on the theme of joy, teaching that true joy is not based on circumstances but on God's presence with us through Jesus Christ. It explains that Jesus' birth brings “good news of great joy for all people” because He is our Savior, Messiah, and Lord, offering salvation, restored relationship with God, and a life surrendered to His loving rule.

This sermon emphasizes that true peace cannot be earned through our own goodness or religious effort but is found only in Jesus, the promised Prince of Peace. Using Simeon's encounter with the infant Jesus in Luke 2, Pastor Mike highlights that real peace comes from knowing Christ personally—not from behavior, circumstances, or self-justification. Jesus brings peace for our past through forgiveness, peace in our present through His presence in life's storms, and peace for our future through the assurance of eternal life. The message concludes by urging believers to seek God first, pray continually, and trust Him in order to walk in His lasting peace.

This sermon concludes a series on Nehemiah by emphasizing how Nehemiah stayed focused, prayerful, and committed while facing distractions, lies, and opposition, refusing to “come down” from the great work God gave him. It highlights the importance of finishing what we start for God, showing how Nehemiah's completion of the wall led to long-term blessings, restored worship, renewed commitment, and future generations being strengthened. Ultimately, the message calls believers to be Kingdom Builders with Jesus—remaining faithful, resisting distractions, and building lives that honor God and bless others.    

In week four of The Book of Nehemiah Series, Pastor Mike challenges the church to be true Kingdom Builders who stand up for what's right, defend those being mistreated, and build every part of their lives around God's Word. Nehemiah's example shows how godly leaders confront injustice, lead with integrity, and choose generosity and sacrifice over personal privilege. The message concludes with a call for us, as believers, to live intentionally, give faithfully, and prayerfully pursue one more person who needs Jesus and His church.

This sermon challenges believers to be “Kingdom Builders” who pray, trust, and work faithfully for God's mission, drawing inspiration from Nehemiah's determination to rebuild Jerusalem despite opposition. Pastor Mike Burnette emphasizes that true Kingdom Builders respond to criticism and hardship with prayer, perseverance, and both spiritual and practical action, knowing that “God fights for us.” Finally, the message invites everyone in the church to take part in building God's Kingdom—serving, giving, and leading—so that their names will be counted among those who helped build God's Church rather than those who “sat it out.”

Kingdom Builders: How God Rebuilds What's Been Torn Down Guest speaker Pastor Mike Burnette shares a powerful message from Nehemiah 1, reminding us that God is still building His church and calling us to partner with Him in rebuilding what's been broken.  

In the final message of the Seven Letters of Revelation series, Pastor Stephanie examines Jesus' warning to the lukewarm church in Laodicea, challenging believers to move from complacency to wholehearted devotion. Pastor Stephanie emphasizes that Jesus lovingly calls His people to repentance, urging them to reignite their passion, depend fully on Him, and open their hearts to His transforming presence.

This sermon focuses on Jesus' letter to the church in Philadelphia from Revelation 3:7–13, highlighting it as a message of encouragement for believers who feel small, overlooked, or under pressure. Pastor Mike Burnette emphasizes that, like the Philadelphian church, followers of Christ must remain faithful, obedient to God's Word, and steadfast in their devotion even when they seem to stand alone. Ultimately, the message calls believers to “hold fast” to Jesus, trusting that He will reward their endurance with eternal security and make them lasting “pillars” in the house of God.

The sermon, based on Revelation 3:1–6, examines Jesus' letter to the church in Sardis, warning them that although they had a reputation for being alive, they were spiritually asleep and in danger of death. Using Sardis' historical downfall due to a sleeping watchman, Pastor Mike Burnette challenges believers and the church today to “wake up,” repent, and reignite their passion for Christ so their faith is truly alive, not just outwardly impressive. He concludes by encouraging the faithful remnant to stay alert, fully devoted, and “on fire” for Jesus, living ready for His return and the promise of eternal life.

This sermon from the Letters to the Church series focuses on Jesus' message to the church in Pergamum, a city described as being in the heart of satanic influence, yet home to believers who boldly held to their faith. While Jesus commends their loyalty, He also rebukes them for tolerating false teachings and moral compromise, warning that His Word will bring correction if they don't repent. Ultimately, the sermon calls the church today to stand firm in truth, reject cultural compromise, and live faithfully for Christ, trusting in His eternal promises of provision, forgiveness, and reward.    

Today our local candidate forum continues, this time going up into the Interior. In hour one we'll chat with Melissa Burnett who's running for reelection on the Fairbanks School Board, where she's currently serving as President. Then in hour two we'll visit with Barbara Haney, who's running for re-election on the Fairbanks Assembly.

In the first of seven letters to the churches in Revelation, Jesus praises the Ephesian church for its perseverance and commitment to truth, but rebukes them for abandoning their first love for Him—reminding us today that no matter how much we do for God, what He desires most is our passionate, personal relationship with Him, and calling us to return to the basics of faith: remembering our redemption, repenting of drift, and repeating our first love.

This week, we return to the subject of autonomous trucking with a SPAC target that already logged months of its trucks operating autonomously in an industrial setting with rollouts on public highways and defense applications inbound. That company is Kodiak, which announced a $2.6 billion combination with Ares Acquisition Corporation II (NYSE:AACT) in April. Kodiak CEO Don Burnette joins us to explain how the company has sought to blaze a trail to commercialization for the company while burning a fraction of the R&D cash that some of its peers have to get to this same point. Don explains how the company has looked to apply that same capital efficiency to the structure of its SPAC combination and what opportunities he sees on the other side of the company's drive into the public markets.  

This sermon, part of the "Forgotten Virtues" series, focuses on the powerful virtues of mercy and grace, reminding the church that although our culture leans toward cancelation and judgment, God's people are called to be radically different — extending mercy as God has done for us. Pastor Mike Burnette illustrates the biblical meanings of justice, mercy, and grace, emphasizing that while justice gives what is deserved, mercy withholds it, and grace gives what is undeserved — all modeled perfectly in Jesus Christ. Ultimately, the call is clear: since we have freely received grace and mercy, we must freely give it, living as reflections of God's character in our homes, workplaces, and communities.

This sermon launches a new series called Forgotten Virtues, focusing on restoring the lost value of living virtuously, starting with the virtue of honor. Pastor Mike Burnette emphasizes that honor is not the same as respect—while respect is earned, honor is given freely—and challenges believers to choose honor in how they treat God, His Word, those in authority, and all people. Ultimately, the message urges the church to reclaim honor as a defining trait of Christ-followers, motivated by the example of Jesus, who honored even those who crucified Him.

This week's Step 3 of the Growth Track, “Take Your Next Step,” calls every person in the Church to discover how they can serve with purpose and make a real difference by joining the Dream Team. Building on the previous weeks of learning about the church's mission and personal gifts, this message challenges the whole church to step into their God-given calling through clear next steps like salvation, small groups, baptism, and serving. With an emphasis on using your gifts to prepare hearts for the Word of God, the message reminds us that serving isn't just helpful—it's holy.

This sermon walks the congregation through Step 2 of the Growth Track, helping them discover their God-given personality and ministry strengths through tools like the DISC assessment and a spiritual gifts survey. The message emphasizes that every person has been uniquely made, gifted, and placed by God to serve with purpose and make a lasting difference in the church and the world.

Me - I didn't care... I didn't care."

This sermon urges believers to deeply commit to God's Word by reading it daily, loving it, trusting it, and living by it, emphasizing that Scripture is God-breathed and essential for spiritual growth and direction. Drawing from 2 Timothy 4, it challenges both pastors and the entire church to boldly preach and live out the Bible, remaining discerning and faithful even when truth becomes unpopular.

This sermon emphasizes the importance of our words and actions in reflecting our identity as God's people, urging believers to guard their speech and live in a way that honors Him. It challenges Christians to actively pursue righteousness, mature spiritually, and remove anything dishonorable from their lives to be used effectively by God. The message concludes with a call to deeper submission, service, and repentance, highlighting God's desire to use willing and mature believers for His purpose.

Drawing from 2 Timothy 2, it challenges believers to live with the discipline of a soldier, the integrity of an athlete, and the perseverance of a farmer as they share the Gospel. Ultimately, the message calls the church to become a "Pass It On" community, empowered by God to impact others and endure through trials.

This sermon encourages believers to live boldly and unashamed of their faith, taking pride in the Gospel and the Church while standing firm in their convictions despite cultural pressure or potential suffering. Drawing from 2 Timothy 1, it emphasizes passing down faith through spiritual generations, being filled and led by the Holy Spirit, and guarding God's work in our lives with strength and devotion.

In this sermon Pastor Mike begins the series 2 Timothy by emphasizing that all blessings flow from God, using the Doxology as both inspiration and declaration. It highlights three main sources of God's blessings: the guidance of spiritual mentors, the legacy of a godly family, and the active presence of the Holy Spirit. The pastor challenges listeners to recognize and cultivate these blessings in their lives and become a blessing to others.   Copyright Disclaimer The Audio clip from THE FORGE used in this sermon is for educational and illustrative purposes only, under the terms of Fair Use (Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976).

This Easter sermon passionately proclaims the central message of Christianity: that Jesus, the Son of God, died a brutal death on the cross to pay for the sins of all humanity, fulfilling God's plan of redemption and defeating the power of sin and death. It emphasizes that Jesus' resurrection is the cornerstone of our faith, offering not only forgiveness but transformation, freedom, and new life through the power of His blood. The preacher invites listeners to receive this gift personally, reminding them that God's plan of salvation is deeply personal—Jesus did it all for you.

Pastor Mike challenged the cultural message of "following your heart," urging believers instead to follow Jesus, who isn't following our personal feelings or desires. The sermon emphasized guarding, submitting, and transforming our hearts through God's Word, confession, and delighting in Him. By honestly examining the condition of our hearts and aligning our lives with God's will, we can avoid spiritual indifference and produce lasting, godly fruit.

This weeks sermon focuses on the challenging teachings of Jesus, specifically His invitation to "Follow Me." Pastor Mike highlights the story of the Rich Young Ruler to explore the cost of following Jesus, urging listeners to identify and surrender the “one thing” standing between them and full devotion to Christ. The message emphasizes that following Jesus requires daily decisions of surrender, evaluation, and action, with the promise of eternal life and a transformed life on earth for those who truly follow Him.

In today's sermon, we explore how the church should operate as a spiritual family, emphasizing respect, honor, and care for one another, especially across generations.
