Delivery from Distress // Pastor Andrews by Central Baptist Church
Man's nature and purpose are not according to the autonomous will of man but determined, ordained, and commanded by the sovereignty of God. A biblical worldview affirms the sovereignty of God over all of creation, including man, but the world claims that each person has total autonomy, independent of any authority. Genesis 1:26-31 testifies to the creation of man and man's nature and purpose.In the sermon from Genesis 1:26-31, Pastor Ben explains that God's creation of man demands that you honor every human life as God's image bearer, be a good steward of God's creation, and submit to God's authority to create and command.Find Out More:Ben Smith is the pastor of Central Baptist Church, Waycross, GA.Additional podcasts, books, and downloadable PDFs of Pastor Ben's sermon outlines and manuscripts are available at http://bensmithsr.org.You can find information about Central Baptist Church at cbcwaycross.org.Special thanks to David Carnes for his beautiful rendition of This Is My Father's World from the album Journey… a Praise Offering.

The Three Persons of Church Music // Bro. Aaron Baker by Central Baptist Church
Genesis chapter one is the testimony of creation. By God's authority, out of His will, and according to His command, He created all things.As with all of scripture, Genesis chapter one is a testimony of God that reveals His authority, will, and nature. It is not a story about men but a testimony to who God is and how He is working.Genesis chapter one does not answer every detail you may wish were included. There are many questions about how God accomplished His work that are left unanswered. Not the least of which is how God created all that is from nothing. In His perfect providence, God has given us His word to declare that He is the author and creator of all things while leaving unanswered the mysteries that the mind of man cannot conceive. Genesis chapter one is a foundational text for a Christian worldview and many of the most fundamental doctrines. From Genesis chapter one, Pastor Ben Smith preaches on how God's creation forms how Christians understand God and all that He has made.Find Out More:Ben Smith is the pastor of Central Baptist Church, Waycross, GA.Additional podcasts, books, and downloadable PDFs of Pastor Ben's sermon outlines and manuscripts are available at http://bensmithsr.org.You can find information about Central Baptist Church at cbcwaycross.org.This sermon was originally preached on 8/17/2025.Special thanks to David Carnes for his beautiful rendition of This Is My Father's World from the album Journey… a Praise Offering.

Three Prerequisites for Church Musicians // Bro. Aaron Baker by Central Baptist Church
Pastor Ben Smith preaches expositionally from Psalm 16 on how the power, providence, and salvation of God give hope to Christians in the present and for eternity.Psalm 16 is a Psalm of David. God would make a way for David to be king, but there would be a long period where he was a fugitive on the run from an enraged and unhinged monarch. Psalm 16 may have been written during this chaotic period of David's life.On the run, hunted, and under constant threat, David finds real and lasting peace and security in the power, providence, and faithfulness of God.Everyone is looking for peace and security, but how do you find real and lasting peace and security? How can you find unshakable hope and peace in a world filled with so much trouble? Psalm 16 declares the sureness, goodness, and faithfulness of God and encourages the church to know the sure hope of God, in God's refuge, providence, and eternal salvation.Find Out More:Ben Smith is the pastor of Central Baptist Church, Waycross, GA.Additional podcasts, books, and downloadable PDFs of Pastor Ben's sermon outlines and manuscripts are available at http://bensmithsr.org.You can find information about Central Baptist Church at cbcwaycross.org.This sermon was originally preached on 8/3/2025.

The Blueprint of a New Beginning // Pastor Jeremiah Andrews by Central Baptist Church
When God saves you, He transforms you, and your life will bear the evidence of His holiness. David begins Psalm 15 with a question.Who can sojourn or abide with God, and who can dwell or remain in the presence of God? The simple answer to this is no one, unless they have been redeemed and made righteous through saving faith.David answers his opening question with six characteristics of a life that has been transformed by God. These six characteristics are not an exhaustive list but are representative of the transformation that God brings to your life through salvation that produces in you a life after God's own heart.

Prayer // Brother Jonathan Montgomery by Central Baptist Church
In this expositional sermon from 2 Thessalonians 3:16-18, pastor Ben Smith makes clear that being saved through faith in Jesus Christ is the only source of peace and the only hope of grace. Although simple and brief, these concluding words to the Thessalonian church testify to the hope and blessing of salvation, encouraging the church to continue in the faith.These are Paul's last recorded words to the Thessalonian church. He signs the letter to ensure that they will know that these words are authentically his (17). The church had received a counterfeit letter (2 Thessalonians 2:2), and Paul wanted to assure the church that this letter was genuine, authentic, and authoritative. In addition to his signature, he prays for them and blesses them. Both the prayer and the blessing are founded on their salvation in Jesus Christ. Paul wanted to remind the church of the blessings that flow from salvation in Jesus Christ.These verses encourage the church with two blessings that flow from salvation in Jesus Christ: 1) The peace that comes only from Jesus Christ, and 2) the grace of Jesus Christ.Find Out More:Ben Smith is the pastor of Central Baptist Church, Waycross, GA.This sermon was originally preached on 7/20/2025 at Central Baptist Church of Waycross, GA.Additional podcasts, books, and downloadable PDFs of Pastor Ben's sermon outlines and manuscripts are available at www.BenSmithSr.org.

Sunday Sermon l July 20th, 2025 l Jonah Boiling in a Stew of Bitterness
The cost of faithful obedience does not negate the worthiness and value of Scripture's commands. The difficulty or unpleasantness of a task does not mean that the task is unnecessary or a worthless pursuit.Church discipline is hard, relationally taxing, and requires significant attention and energy from the church. This level of investment and cost was causing the Thessalonian church to grow weary, and some were surely tempted to give up or give in. In our day, many church members are weary from the excessive commitments they have made outside of the church. This leads them to be unprepared and with little tolerance or energy for the mental attention, emotional fortitude, and spiritual determination required for church discipline. Additionally, our culture places great importance on preserving the individual's self-esteem, emotional stability, and autonomy. Any attempt to express judgment towards an individual is countercultural and generally rejected. The church is not immune to these cultural forces and is often tempted to compromise biblical fidelity for the sake of cultural acceptance.In this passage, Paul pleads with the church to faithfully endure in church discipline, regardless of how difficult the task may be.Find Out More:Ben Smith is the pastor of Central Baptist Church, Waycross, GA.This sermon was originally preached on 7/6/2025 at Central Baptist Church of Waycross, GA.Additional podcasts, books, and downloadable PDFs of Pastor Ben's sermon outlines and manuscripts are available at www.BenSmithSr.org.

Central Baptist Church in Kansas City Sunday sermon by Aaron S. Jonah 3
In this sermon, Pastor Ben Smith expositionally preaches from 2 Thessalonians 3:6-12, addressing the critical issues of the sin of idleness and the often-abandoned practice of church discipline. He emphasizes that sin is a serious threat to individual Christians and the church, rightly understood as rebellion against God's lordship. The sermon highlights that faithful labor is submission to God, contrasting it with sinful idleness. The sermon also outlines three basic principles of church discipline: it is an action of the church, a direct confrontation of sin, and is fundamentally gospel-driven. Listeners will understand why the church must obey Christ's commands, even when they are countercultural, to affirm the gospel, combat sin, and rescue wayward members. Episode Notes: In this sermon, Pastor Ben Smith expositionally preaches from 2 Thessalonians 3:6-12, addressing the critical issues of the sin of idleness and the often-abandoned practice of church discipline. He emphasizes that sin is a serious threat to individual Christians and the church, rightly understood as rebellion against God's lordship. The sermon highlights that faithful labor is submission to God, contrasting it with sinful idleness. The sermon also outlines three basic principles of church discipline: it is an action of the church, a direct confrontation of sin, and is fundamentally gospel-driven. Listeners will understand why the church must obey Christ's commands, even when they are countercultural, to affirm the gospel, combat sin, and rescue wayward members.Key Highlights· The Church's Abandonment of Discipline: Pastor Ben explains how historically, church discipline was a regular part of church life, but in recent years, it has been largely abandoned, indicating a lack of seriousness about the danger sin poses to individuals and the body of Christ. This abandonment is often rooted in a desire to "be nice" or concerns about inflated membership numbers, rather than faithful biblical witness.· Idleness as Rebellion, Not Rest: The passage in 2 Thessalonians addresses the sin of "idleness," which is defined as a moral disorder and rebellion, not simply rest. Paul, as an example, worked night and day to avoid being a burden, emphasizing that faithful labor is submission to God. Idleness can lead to other sins, such as being a "busybody" who disrupts the church.· Gospel-Driven Church Discipline: Church discipline is presented as an action commanded by Christ, to be carried out by the church on its members, specifically those living in unrepentant sin. Following the principles of Matthew 18, it involves direct confrontation of sin, potentially leading to the disfellowshipping of unrepentant members. Ultimately, church discipline is driven by love and the gospel, aiming to bear a true witness, rescue wayward members, and affirm that unrepentant rebellion is not acceptable to God.Find Out More:For more sermons and content from Pastor Ben Smith, visit BenSmithSr.org.

A Picture of Progress // Pastor Jeremiah Andrews by Central Baptist Church
The advancement of the gospel and the endurance of the church are testimonies to the faithfulness and power of God, not the tenacity or ingenuity of man. What has enabled the church to endure in a hostile world? What empowers Christians to share the gospel when faced with such difficulties and costs? How can you remain faithful and encouraged in a world that is indefatigably working against God?2 Thessalonians teaches that the only way to faithfully endure in a hostile world is to put your trust in the power, promises, and goodness of God.Find Out More:For more sermons and content from Pastor Ben Smith, visit BenSmithSr.org.
