An episode from Lukfata Baptist Church, a conservative, independent body of King James Bible believers located in Broken Bow, Oklahoma. The mission of Lukfata Baptist Church is to be obedient to the words of Christ who is the head of the church and commands us to “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching themto observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.” (Matthew 28:19, 20) Lukfata Baptist Church (LBC) believes in sending the message of the gospel into all the world (Mk. 16:15). When we're unable to take the gospel to foreign lands personally, we can help send those who go in our place. LBC maintains a missionary zeal, and we are excited to be partnered together with those families who are bringing the life-giving message of the gospel to the furthest corners of the globe.

In this sermon, Bryan Brammer preaches from Acts 18:1-17 as we look at what our expectations should be as followers of Jesus.
Colossians teaches us that the gospel is not simply a one-time message that get us into heaven or a safety net from hell that we place upon the footnote of our lives. The gospel is a good message of the supremacy of Jesus that saves us, sustains us, and sanctifies us to the very end when we know it, believe it, and apply it to our everyday lives. Colossians shows us how the gospel of Jesus Christ affects and redeems every single aspect of our lives and, when applied, causes us to be growing in the gospel until Jesus comes back again. Join us as we continue Growing in the Gospel together through our study in Colossians this Winter!

Acts 8:1-25 / Pastor Roy Shinn
Message preached at Grace Family Church, Caymanas Estate, Jamaica, by Sheldon Campbell on May 12, 2024. "The gospel of Jesus Christ saves all kinds of people, reaching everyone from the privileged and the oppressed to God-fearers and former oppressors."
While the issues at the front and center of American politics in 2024 are different from those that the religious leaders highlighted during Jesus' day, they certainly aren't any less contentious. In this week's message from Mark 12, Pastor Bryan shows us how Jesus navigated stormy political waters with grace—and how we can do the same. When we recognize that it should be our faith that drives our politics (and not the other way around), we can then approach the upcoming election season in a way that honors both God and other people. Message originally given on 5/12/24 at Summit Church in Raleigh, NC

Join Sam Fornecker for a chat with David Gustafson (Chair of Mission and Evangelism at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School). Drawing on insight's from David's book, Gospel Witness through the Ages (Eerdman's, 2022), this conversation focuses on how Christians can learn to fulfill our charge to "do the work of an evangelist" (2 Tim. 4:5) by learning from the evangelistic strengths—and weaknesses—of the Church throughout the ages.
Bible Study Don't just take our word for it . . . take His! We would encourage you to spend time examining the following Scriptures that shaped this sermon: . Sermon Outline One Charge (v.2 — "Preach the word!") ... urgently ... relevantly ... patiently ... intelligently Two Worlds The world that is coming (v.1) The world that is passing away (v.3–5) Three Victories Desertion (v.9) Treachery (v.14) Abandonment (v.16) Application Questions How would Timothy have understood Paul's command to "preach the word"? What characterizes the kind of preaching Paul has in mind? How does that apply to you? To our church family at St Andrew's? What does it mean to have "itching ears" (v.3)? How is Timothy to respond to this situation? Why does Paul anticipate so keenly the return of Christ (v.8)? Do you look forward to Christ's return? (See v.8 and v.18.) In what ways did the gospel prevail despite great opposition? Where does the gospel go forward today in conditions of great hardship? How you are engaged with Christians enduring hardship, persecution, or opposition for Christ's sake?

Oxygen is essential to our survival. Did you ever think that Beauty might also be essential to our survival?
