Romans: Transforming Power of the Gospel, Pt. 25 – Gospel Stumbling BlocksRomans 14:1–23 | King's Chapel Live StreamRomans 14 reminds us that unity in the church is not built on everyone agreeing about everything—it is built on the gospel.Paul urges believers to welcome one another, even when we differ on secondary matters. We are called to honor the Lord, walk in love, and pursue peace rather than becoming stumbling blocks to one another.This passage teaches us that we belong to the same Savior, we serve the same Lord, and we are accountable to the same Judge. In Christ, liberty and love work together to build up the body, not tear it down.If you have ever struggled with differences in the church or wondered how to walk in love toward others who see things differently, Romans 14:1–23 gives wisdom and clarity rooted in the grace of Christ.Connect with King's Chapel in Longwood, FL- ▶️ www.kingschapelfl.com▶️ https://www.facebook.com/KingsChapelfl▶️ https://www.instagram.com/kingschapelfl/For the GLORY of our Great GodFor the GOOD of our NeighborRomans 14 sermon, gospel stumbling blocks, unity in the church, King's Chapel Longwood FL, Romans Bible study, Paul letter to the Romans, faith and liberty in Christ, how to handle differences in church, Christian love and unity, building up the body of Christ

Did you know that several Bible characters have been given nick-names? Some are recorded in the scripture, but others are not. There is one man in the Old Testament who has been given the title, "The Weeping Prophet." He cried a lot because his heart was breaking because of the nation's refusal to return to God. Our subject today is "Journey Back to God." This is what we all need to have when we go astray from God's love.

Do you remember playing a game when you were a child called “Hide and Seek?” One person would be “It” and would hide their eyes while others ran and hid. Then after counting to a certain number in a sing-song kind of way, “It” would say, “Here I come, ready or not.” Today we're thinking about the matter of being ready when God calls us. Many will not be ready, and there is great peril in putting off Jesus. That is our subject for this morning.

Romans: Transforming Power of the Gospel, Pt. 23 – Obeying AuthorityRomans 13:1–7 | King's Chapel Live StreamRomans 13:1–7 calls us to wrestle with a challenging question: how do we live faithfully under human authority while remembering that God is the ultimate authority?Paul reminds us that every position of power is given by God. History itself is His story with a beginning, a turning point at the cross, and an ending point when Christ returns. Because of this, we are called to honor God as we live under earthly rulers, giving what is owed to Caesar, to God, and to our neighbor.This passage does not dismiss the reality of injustice or the brokenness of human authority. But it does point us back to the sovereignty of God and to a life that trusts Him above all.If you have ever wondered how to live out your faith in a world of governments and systems, Romans 13 will help you see how the gospel transforms our perspective on authority.Connect with King's Chapel in Longwood, FL- ▶️ www.kingschapelfl.com▶️ https://www.facebook.com/KingsChapelfl▶️ https://www.instagram.com/kingschapelfl/For the GLORY of our Great GodFor the GOOD of our NeighborRomans 13 sermon, obeying authority in the Bible, God and government, King's Chapel Longwood FL, Romans Bible study, Christian view of authority, Paul letter to the Romans, ultimate authority is God, giving to Caesar and to God, gospel and obedience, biblical authority explained

Pastor Ricky Gravley- A sermon preached Sunday Evening, on September 21, 2025.

We welcome you this morning to our Sunday worship service from Ocean Lakes Family Campground in Myrtle Beach, SC.

Let's give now some serious thought to this all-important matter. Thank you for joining us in worship today.

Romans: Transforming Power of the Gospel, Pt. 22 – Gospel-Empowered LoveRomans 12:9–21 | King's Chapel Live StreamRomans 12:9–21 shows us what love looks like when it is shaped by the gospel. Paul gives a vision of love that is genuine, humble, and powerful.This kind of love honors God, clings to what is good, and fuels everything we do. It blesses our enemies, empathizes with our neighbors, and reaches out to those in need. And it is powerful because it refuses vengeance, seeks peace, trusts God's justice, and shows radical kindness.Gospel-empowered love is not easy. But it is the love Christ has shown to us, and it is the love He calls us to show to others.If you are wondering how to love people who are hard to love, Romans 12:9–21 will point you to the transforming power of Christ.Connect with King's Chapel in Longwood, FL- ▶️ www.kingschapelfl.com▶️ https://www.facebook.com/KingsChapelfl▶️ https://www.instagram.com/kingschapelfl/For the GLORY of our Great GodFor the GOOD of our NeighborRomans 12 sermon, gospel empowered love, love shaped by the gospel, King's Chapel Longwood FL, Romans Bible study, how to love your enemies, Paul letter to the Romans, gospel and relationships, Christian love in action, genuine Christian love, radical kindness in the Bible

Shane grew up in Bangkok in a home marked by conflict, fear, and idolatry. Searching for acceptance, he fell into gangs, drugs, and dealing—living a reckless lifestyle that left him empty inside. Everything shifted when he walked into an English class run by a church. There, simple kindness and daily Bible stories planted seeds of hope. Through a powerful encounter with God's presence, Shane realized Jesus wasn't a criminal to be mocked, but the Savior who loved him enough to die for him. He surrendered his life, experienced radical transformation, and even saw his mother come to Christ. Now Shane boldly shares his testimony of deliverance, forgiveness, and hope, reminding us that God's love reaches the darkest places and that He never fails.Listen on Podcast Spotify Podcast ⇨ https://spoti.fi/3RBKdq3Apple Podcast ⇨ https://apple.co/3evzCuuConnect with ushttps://www.facebook.com/delafetestimonieshttps://www.instagram.com/delafetestimonies/Connect with ShaneInstagram ⇨ https://www.instagram.com/shane_thawornFacebook ⇨ https://www.facebook.com/ShanepichayaMesa Global (Missions Organization) Link: https://www.mesaglobal.co/workers/31593Credits:Testimony by Shane ThawornDirected by Eric Villatoro Interviewed by Eric Villatoro Edited By Joshua GayleAudio Mixed by Paul Nicholas Testimony Recorded in Bangkok, ThailandDelafé Testimonies is a global evangelistic project with the mission of creating the world's largest archive of Jesus testimonies until His return. Chapters00:00 Introduction00:21 Warning00:26 Being Raised in a Buddhist Family02:10 A Chaotic Home Environment05:16 Being Exposed to Sex as a Child 06:41 Joining a Gang in Middle School 13:03 Hearing about Jesus for the First Time 17:19 A Thought Provoking Conversation with My Teacher22:05 Going to a Church Service for the First Time 28:37 “Do You Know What Love Is?”35:03 Reading the Bible for the First Time40:41 Experiencing the Love of God 42:56 Giving My Life to Jesus46:26 The Lord Shows Me a Vision48:54 Telling My Mom I Became a Christian53:52 My Mom Allows Me to Pray for Her57:06 My Mom Gives Her Life to Jesus1:03:39 What Happened with My Dad1:10:06 Forgiving My Dad1:18:07 Talking to My Dad About Jesus 1:22:26 Meeting My Wife1:30:31 Getting Married1:31:54 Who is Jesus to You?1:32:36 Prayer1:35:28 Final WordsThai Gang Member Becomes Christian After THIS Happened...

The Bible speaks of heaven in terms of a mansion. But there are other words which are also used to describe the final residence of all those who know Jesus, the Son of God, as their own personal Savior. Today we will take a look at some of these beautiful ideas, terms, to see what God has let us knew about heaven - “A House Not Made with Hands.” For more information on the Campground, insider tips and FAQ's, listen to our General Ocean Lakes Podcast, Campground Conversations.

Romans: Transforming Power of the Gospel, Pt. 21 – Blessed Body of ChristRomans 12:3–8 | King's Chapel Live StreamIn Romans 12, Paul shows us what it means to be the body of Christ. The church is one body made up of many members, each gifted by God to bless His people and build His kingdom.Romans 12:3–8 reminds us that none of us are the whole story, but every one of us matters. Paul teaches that every member has a role, and every gift is given by grace to strengthen the body of Christ.This passage calls us to humility, to recognize our need for one another, and to celebrate that every member belongs.If you have ever wondered where you fit or how God has gifted you, Romans 12 will remind you that you have a place in His body and a purpose in His church.Connect with King's Chapel in Longwood, FL- ▶️ www.kingschapelfl.com▶️ https://www.facebook.com/KingsChapelfl▶️ https://www.instagram.com/kingschapelfl/For the GLORY of our Great GodFor the GOOD of our NeighborRomans 12 sermon, body of Christ explained, spiritual gifts in the Bible, King's Chapel Longwood FL, Romans Bible study, one body many members, blessed body of Christ, using your gifts for God, Paul letter to the Romans, spiritual gifts sermon, Christian community and belonging

Is church supposed to be a checklist or a journey with purpose attached with everything we do? In this episode we share something that isn't new, but actually old and powerful. The question is not, "How do I want to worship?" but rather, "How does God want to be worshipped?"

Romans: Transforming Power of the Gospel, Pt. 20 – Living SacrificesRomans 12:1–2 | King's Chapel Live StreamRomans 12 opens with one of the most life-changing calls in the entire Bible. Paul urges us to present our bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God.This call is not about rules or rituals. It is about responding to the mercy of God shown at the cross. Because of what Jesus has done for us, our whole lives are meant to be an offering of worship.Living as a sacrifice means refusing to be shaped by the values of the world. Instead, we are to be transformed by the renewing of our minds. A renewed mind begins to see the world through the truth of Scripture. It helps us discern the will of God and live it out with confidence.This message reminds us that true worship is not just about what we sing on Sunday but how we live every day. If you want to know God's will and live a life that honors Him, Romans 12:1–2 shows the way forward.Connect with King's Chapel in Longwood, FL- ▶️ www.kingschapelfl.com▶️ https://www.facebook.com/KingsChapelfl▶️ https://www.instagram.com/kingschapelfl/For the GLORY of our Great GodFor the GOOD of our NeighborRomans 12 sermon, living sacrifice meaning, transformed by the renewing of your mind, King's Chapel Longwood FL, Romans Bible study, God's will for my life, what is true worship, Paul's letter to the Romans, renewing your mind sermon, gospel centered teaching

In John's gospel, chapter 16, the very last verse, Jesus told His followers, “In the world you shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” That's the KJV. In another translation, that verse reads this way: “While you are in the world, you will have to suffer. But cheer up! I have defeated the world.” That sounds like something we all could use, doesn't it? For the next few minutes we will be thinking about how Jesus was able to deal with suffering, hardships, and all other kinds of situations.

Romans: Transforming Power of the Gospel, Pt. 19 – DoxologyRomans 11:33–36 | King's Chapel Live StreamAt the end of Romans 11, Paul bursts into praise. After wrestling with the mystery of God's plan for salvation, he can only stand in awe and worship. These verses remind us that the gospel is not just about what God has done for us, but about who He is.Paul's doxology highlights three truths: the depth of God's character, the mystery of His ways, and the glory that belongs to Him alone. His riches, wisdom, and knowledge go beyond anything we can grasp. His judgments and ways are unsearchable. And every single thing in creation exists from Him, through Him, and for Him.This passage is a call to humility, worship, and trust. It invites us to stop trying to figure God out and instead to bow in reverence before Him.If you need to be reminded of God's greatness and why He is worthy of your trust, this message will lift your eyes and strengthen your faith.Connect with King's Chapel in Longwood, FL- ▶️ www.kingschapelfl.com▶️ https://www.facebook.com/KingsChapelfl▶️ https://www.instagram.com/kingschapelfl/For the GLORY of our Great GodFor the GOOD of our Neighbor

If you have ever been totally occupied in giving your full time and attention to some project, and along comes someone who interrupts you in what you're doing, then you know just how frustrating and annoying that can be. You may be tempted to give that person “a piece of your mind.” The Bible tells us that Jesus was “in all points tempted, as we are, yet without sin.” This may well be the time when a look at how Jesus handled interruptions can help us also. That's what our subject is this morning: “Jesus and Interruptions.” For more information on the Campground, insider tips and FAQ's, listen to our General Ocean Lakes Podcast, Campground Conversations. 

Romans: Transforming Power of the Gospel, Pt. 18 – God's Plan for IsraelRomans 11:1–32 | King's Chapel Live StreamRomans 11 raises some of the biggest questions in Scripture. Has God rejected His people Israel? Has their stumbling meant failure? And what does their story mean for us today?Paul answers with hope. God has not rejected His people. He has always kept a faithful remnant saved by grace. Israel's stumbling has even opened the door for the nations to receive the blessing of the gospel. At the center of it all stands Jesus, the true Israel, the promised seed of Abraham, the beloved Son, and the true Vine.In this message, we look at the mystery of God's plan for Israel and His promise that all who believe in Christ, both Jew and Gentile, are brought into His family. The chapter reminds us that God's purposes never fail, His promises are sure, and His mercy is wider than we could imagine.If you have ever wondered how Israel fits into God's plan of salvation, this passage shows us the beauty of God's wisdom and the certainty of His love.Connect with King's Chapel in Longwood, FL- ▶️ www.kingschapelfl.com▶️ https://www.facebook.com/KingsChapelfl▶️ https://www.instagram.com/kingschapelfl/For the GLORY of our Great GodFor the GOOD of our Neighbor
