What do you do when God promises a future that feels impossible? In Romans 4, Abraham believed God—even when his circumstances said otherwise—and it was counted to him as righteousness. This message explores a faith that rests not on performance, but on God's promise; not on human strength, but on God's power. It's a faith anchored in Scripture and secured by the resurrection of Jesus. When God speaks a future you can't yet see, you can trust the One who gives life to the dead and calls into existence what does not exist.
This Sunday, Pastor Curtis continues in the series with Part 3 of 'Sacred Silence' God Speaks, focusing on the true goal of silence—learning to hear God clearly and respond in obedience. Through the story of Abraham, we're reminded that time with God builds trust, obedience brings blessing, and in the quiet, we discover that the Lord always provides.
Most people want to hear from God. They want clarity. Direction. Confidence in their decisions. But what if one of the biggest ways God speaks is the one we're most likely to ignore?In this week's message, we look at the third strand in the rope of hearing God: trusted voices. We've talked about the Word of God. We've talked about the Holy Spirit. Now we talk about the People of God.Through the story of Rehoboam in 1 Kings 12, we see how listening to the wrong voices can divide a kingdom—and how insecurity, pride, and surrounding ourselves with “yes men” can quietly shipwreck our lives.God's will isn't discovered in isolation. It's confirmed when the Word of God, the peace of the Holy Spirit, and wise counsel line up—like range lights guiding a ship safely into harbor.In a world full of noise, you can always find someone who agrees with you. The real question is: who is shaping your decisions?If you want to hear God clearly, this message will challenge you to evaluate the voices in your life—and to become the kind of person who can receive wisdom, correction, and truth.Listen in and ask yourself: Who am I really listening to?
Sunday Morning Message | 1 Samuel 3:1-21 | February 22, 2026
Several years ago, I had purchased an old pickup with engine problems; the plan was to do a quick repair and sell it, and make some profit. I read a few articles about the process, and a couple mentioned a ‘trick' that would save me quite a bit of time when replacing an internal engine part. Thinking I understood what the article meant and confident I could figure it out if I needed to, I jumped in and started disassembling the motor. When I got to the part where I planned to use the ‘trick' mentioned in the article, though, I was stumped. It could not work! The parts were worn, everything was dirty and oily, and my old fingers simply couldn't make things work. I re-read the articles, and even pulled out the factory manual for help – nothing helped! Finally, I turned to YouTube, an online video site, and punched in a title that I thought would help. It took a few minutes to find the right video, and I finally found one that discussed the ‘trick' I was looking to use. The mechanic's voice-over made it seem really simple. After he got the light and the camera, he performed the trick – it was an amazing feat! Just like the article said, when you got your fingers in the right place and applied just the right pressure, you could disassemble part of the engine almost instantly, without any tools. I couldn't learn what I needed from just hearing about it – I needed to see it with my own eyes, and once I did, it worked well. Amazing! The Apostle Palu knew nothing about working on an old truck motor. Still, he did understand the importance of a ‘picture' or example of doing something, so that others might learn. In his letter to the Philippians, Paul taught the early Christians how to live like Jesus. He put things into his own words, and then, to make sure they ‘got it,' he pointed to the example of Jesus: not what He said, but what He did. Here is the way Paul taught the early church how to live: Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form Of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Philippians 2:5-8 Do you see what Paul did? He did not repeat the words of Jesus in this section; he merely reminded readers of how Jesus lived and how he put his faith in God into action. That was Paul's teaching method! Jesus' actions taught us: 1) Understand your ‘place' in the Church. A believer is “in Christ,” with all the potential for Spiritual gifts and usefulness to God. 2) We must understand our ‘place' in the church as a humble servant of God. The point of our faithfulness is to proclaim the Gospel, minister to others in the name of Christ, and glorify Him. Finally, 3) True faith leads one to obedience to the leadership of the Spirit and submission to God's Word. We are to seek and find God's will for us in any given situation, and prayerfully submit. That is God's eternal plan! Let me challenge you to learn from the actions of Jesus and learn to do more than just talk about your faith. Put it to work! The best way you can support our ministry is by sharing this video with your friends and family!

On the Mount of Transfiguration, God declared, "This is my beloved son." This was not the first time God declared this, He also declared it at Jesus' baptism. But even before that, Peter writes that God spoke these words through David almost a thousand years earlier in Psalm 2. Peter, who physically heard God repeat what He had spoken so long ago writes: "For no prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit."

What if the reason you struggle to hear God isn't that He's silent… but that other voices are louder?In Week 3 of Hearing God, we lean into a powerful truth: God speaks through the Holy Spirit. And not in a weird, mystical, unpredictable way—but as an Advocate. A Defender. A Guide.Jesus called the Holy Spirit our parakletos—our defense attorney. When lies creep in, when shame gets loud, when insecurity starts preaching at you, the Spirit steps in and reminds you of what is actually true.In this message, we unpack:What Jesus really meant in John 14 and 16Why the Holy Spirit will never contradict ScriptureThe four competing voices that try to drown out GodWhy small “yes” moments shape your futureHow the Spirit guides you into truth, not confusionThrough real-life stories—from a terrifying emergency C-section to descending 250 feet into Mammoth Cave—we talk about control, trust, and what it looks like to actually follow the Spirit's lead.
I recently came across a story, told by a college professor, about an experience she had in which she believed God had clearly directed her in a specific situation. The Professor (Joan) told the story of a young woman (Sherry) in one of her classes who was dressed poorly and looked a little ‘shabby'; she also kept to herself and dropped her eyes when she spoke to the teacher and others in the class. One day, as the young lady was walking out, she said “goodbye” to her, and as the woman walked out, she heard a voice in her head clearly say, “Give her the money in your wallet.” The professor felt a little odd about the situation and so resisted. She did look in her wallet and found a $20 bill; not much to lose, she thought. By the time she walked into the hallway to find her, Sherry had gone out the door and was nowhere to be found. Joan didn't think any more about it, thinking she had imagined the whole thing. She was an active Christian and willing to help, but she had never had an experience in which she thought God might be speaking to her! A few weeks later into the semester, and nothing had changed. Joan had spoken to Sherry but had never mentioned the experience to her or offered her any money. And then, one night, it happened again: as the young woman walked out, Joan heard that voice in her head again, “give her the money in her wallet.” She quickly dug out her wallet and found $40, twice the amount as before. She leapt to her feet and ran out into the hallway, and chased down the young woman. She caught up to her and blurted out, “I've never done this sort of thing before, but I'm Christian, and I feel like God has told me to give you the money in my wallet.” The young woman, surprised by her teacher's approach, took the money and then explained that, just before class, even though she didn't believe in God, she and a friend had prayed for a box of diapers. She explained that she was a single mother, had run out of money, and could not even buy her infant a box of diapers. She was desperate and had asked her friends and parents for help, but no one could help her! The two women spoke for a few minutes about the situation; Sherry was not a Christian and had never been to church, so she didn't know what to say about God speaking to her teacher, but she was thankful for the help. They spoke for a few minutes, then went their separate ways. Over the next few months, they talked often, first about the young child, and then Sherry's prospects for life. They spoke often over the next few years; eventually, Sherry received Christ as her savior and remembered the help her friend had given her at the prompting of God's Spirit. There are so many truths from this true story! Let me speak of just one: God speaks to his people! Sometimes it is through the words of a teacher or preacher; or, as in our story, God speaks in the heart of a believer to act and, through the actions of others, to help in some way. More often, God speaks through the Bible, which Christians believe to be the living, powerful Word of God. Regardless, God speaks! Here is one passage that speaks to this truth: “From childhood you have known the sacred writings which can give you the wisdom that leads to salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. All scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work.” II Timothy 3:15-17 Let me encourage you to read the Bible and learn to trust God's Word. The scriptures can lead you to salvation in Jesus. As the teachings are applied to your life, they can transform and improve every area of your life, literally. In the Bible, God speaks!

This week, Pastor John continued our Established sermon series with a message from 1 Samuel 3. He reminded us that God is always speaking to His people through His Word, His Spirit, and His work, often most clearly in moments of darkness. As we position ourselves with surrendered and attentive hearts, God establishes those who are willing to listen and respond.

Drawing from 2 Timothy 3 and John 10, this message helps reframe the Bible from a confusing textbook into a living, relational story that equips us for everyday life.We break down how to read the Bible with clarity, how to understand its different genres, and how to discern what's essential versus what's personal conviction. You'll also get simple, realistic tools to build a sustainable rhythm of engaging with Scripture so you can better recognize God's voice and follow His leading.This series is designed for the whole church, from kids to adults, and it's never too late to jump in. Our hope is simple: that you wouldn't just hear God's voice, but learn to trust it and live it out.If this message helps you, take a next step.

Father Mitch talks Cultural Connections. Adam Wright of Covenant Radio talks about his cancer journey and how God amazingly spoke through it. Plus, the voice of the prophet Samuel in the movie "David", and T's Two Sense talks over the transgender ideology that is pushed on us.
How do you actually hear God in a world full of noise?In Week 1 of our Hearing God series, we lay the foundation for the most trusted, reliable way God speaks—His Word. This message isn't about mastering a technique or unlocking a formula. It's about posture. Humility. And learning to recognize God's voice by truly knowing His character.We explore why truth isn't something we define for ourselves, how our experiences can mislead us, and why Scripture isn't primarily informational but deeply relational. Through the story of Samuel, we're reminded that hearing God begins with a simple prayer: “Speak, Lord, your servant is listening.”You'll hear:Why the Bible holds ultimate authority in our livesHow to read Scripture through the lens of who it's about, not just what it saysWhy proximity to Scripture isn't the same as hearing from GodHow culture's loudest voices compete with God's voice—and how to filter themWhy anyone can hear from God, starting right where they areWhether you're new to faith, feeling spiritually stuck, or wanting to hear God more clearly, this message will help reset your approach to Scripture and invite you into a deeper, daily relationship with Him.Challenge: For the next six weeks, open your Bible every day and pray, “Speak, Lord, your servant is listening.”Don't give up. God still speaks—and His Word is alive.
When we consider how God speaks, spectacular methods like dreams, visions, angels and more might come to mind. And while God does speaking in those ways—as we've studied already in this series—more often he speaks to us in “ordinary” ways, such as the topic of this message: a human voice. In this message, Pastor Joel explains what is happening when God speaks through people, some common ways it happens, and how when God does speak through people like us it's a parable of the gospel.
Are you ministering to the Lord or just about him? Have you moved beyond religious activity to a place of personal intimacy with God? I would say that children raised in godly homes still need their own Samuel moment, a personal call and a personal response. Faith has to be personal between you and God.

GOD: An Autobiography, As Told to a Philosopher - The Podcast, S1
Questions? Comments? Text Us!Can God speak through more than one religion?In this episode of From God to Jerry to You, philosopher Jerry L. Martin explores a central insight from God: An Autobiography, As Told to a Philosopher: that divine wisdom may be working through many religious traditions across history, not just one.Drawing from his recorded conversations with God, Jerry reflects on the idea that different religions may carry distinct spiritual assignments for different cultures and times. Rather than competing versions of truth, these paths may represent a spiritual “division of labor,” each revealing something essential about the divine.This vision leads to what Jerry calls Theology Without Walls — an approach to faith that remains open to truth wherever it appears, including in other religions, philosophy, literature, science, and lived experience.He also introduces the idea of a “New Axial Age,” a turning point in spiritual history in which seekers begin drawing wisdom from multiple traditions while deepening their personal relationship with God.Whether you belong to a particular faith, identify as spiritual but not religious, or are simply curious about how divine guidance might move through different cultures, this episode offers an expansive and hopeful view of humanity's shared spiritual journey.Listen, reflect, and experience the world from God's perspective — as it was told to a philosopher.Other Series:The podcast began with the Dramatic Adaptation of the book and now has several series:The Life Wisdom Project – Spiritual insights on living a wiser, more meaningful life.From God to Jerry to You – Divine messages and breakthroughs for seekers.Two Philosophers Wrestle With God – A dialogue on God, truth, and reason.Jerry & Abigail: An Intimate Dialogue – Love, faith, and divine presence in partnership.What's Your Spiritual Story – Real stories of people changed by encounters with God.What's On Our Mind – Reflections from Jerry and Scott on recent episodes.What's On Your Mind – Listener questions, divine answers, and open dialogue.

Wednesday January 28, 2026III Week After Epiphany Today's readings remind us that God is never distant from our struggle or silent in our waiting. In Genesis 16:1–14, Hagar encounters the God who sees her—meeting her in the wilderness and calling her by name. Hebrews 10:1–10 points us to Jesus, whose once-for-all sacrifice accomplishes what the law never could: true redemption and restored relationship with God. And in John 5:19–29, Jesus declares His divine authority, revealing that life, judgment, and resurrection flow from the Son who perfectly does the Father's will.This episode invites us to trust the God who sees us, saves us, and speaks life—calling us out of fear, striving, and self-reliance into confident faith in Christ.

Expanding on last week's discussion about listening for God's voice, Ben Taatjes slows down to explore something many avoid: pain. For retirees, pain isn't theoretical; it's deeply personal. Discover why pain is often when we give God our fullest attention and how pain accomplishes what comfort never will. Learn how comfort dulls our questions while pain awakens them and why pain functions as a signal—not a sentence or verdict on your life. Rather, it is a call to correction and growth. Ben reveals how God speaks through restlessness, peace, people, and yes, pain itself. This tender episode encourages those who are hurting to resist rushing past their pain and instead lean in and listen carefully to what God may be saying through it.

In today's episode, Pastor Jeff explores the deep connection between our self-esteem and the perception of those we hold in high esteem, offering insights on how words of affirmation can significantly shape our life's trajectory. Listen in as he shares touching personal stories and the uplifting truth about the unshakable support and unconditional love that can heal and reaffirm our worth.
