“Growing in Knowing” Series, part 4 — Colossians 1:10 “…that you may walk worthy of the Lord… and increase in the knowledge of God.” In Part 4 of our series, Pastor Andrew brings a deeply encouraging and prophetic message titled “The God Who Is Faithful.” From Deuteronomy 7:9, we are reminded that God is not just loving or holy—He is the faithful God, the covenant-keeping God, the God who stays when others walk away, the God who renews when life has drained you, and the God who finishes what He starts. This message is specifically for the broken, the weary, the rejected, and those who feel like they are running on fumes. If you have felt abandoned, overlooked, unsupported, or spiritually exhausted… God sees you. And He is faithful.
Freedom Fighters | John 8:31–36 | Walking in the Liberty Christ Purchased In this powerful message, “Freedom Fighters,” Pastor Andrew Eldridge takes us deep into John 8:31–36, revealing Jesus' call for believers to walk in true spiritual liberty—not someday in heaven, but here and now. Many Christians quote “the truth shall make you free,” but Jesus teaches that freedom begins with continuing in His Word (v.31). Before truth sets us free, we must first abide—remain in, dwell in, and live by the Word of God. Freedom is not accidental; it is the fruit of discipleship. Using the powerful illustration of the American Revolution freedom fighters, Pastor Andrew reminds us that liberty is never won by passivity. Freedom must be pursued. Jesus—the ultimate Freedom Fighter—organized, strategized, sacrificed, and secured our victory on the cross. Now He calls us to stand fast in the liberty He purchased (Galatians 5:1). Throughout this message, we explore:
“In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” (1 Thess. 5:18, NKJV) In this message, Pastor Andrew unpacks what it really means to live with a spirit of thanksgiving — not just one week in November, but every day of the believer's life. Scripture calls us to something far deeper than seasonal gratitude: a lifestyle where thanksgiving becomes the posture of our hearts, no matter what is happening around us. Drawing from 1 Thessalonians 5:16–18, Colossians 3:15–17; 4:2, Ephesians 5:19–20, Habakkuk 3:17–18, and Jonah 2, we explore:
Many believers today live caught between two extremes—sinless perfection on one side and greasy grace on the other. Both distort the gospel and leave Christians confused, insecure, or exhausted by performance-based religion. But Scripture gives us a better way. In this message, Pastor Andrew looks deeply at Paul's words in Philippians 2:12–13, where he calls us to “work out” what God Himself is working in us. You'll discover the freedom that comes when holiness is understood not as human effort, but as Spirit-empowered transformation. We confront the fears that plague many believers: • “What if I sin and don't realize it?” • “What if I'm not good enough?” • “What if God is disappointed in me?” We also expose the bondage of legalism: • The idea that you must maintain your salvation through performance • The fear that God withdraws whenever you stumble • The belief that weakness means God is finished with you And we confront the imbalance of cheap grace that ignores sanctification altogether. Through Scripture, we walk through: • Why struggle does not mean you're lost • What it truly means to be “perfect” as Jesus commanded • The difference between reverent fear and terror • Why believers should not live afraid of hell • How grace not only saves—but keeps, teaches, enables, and transforms • How the Holy Spirit causes us to walk in obedience • Why spiritual maturity—not flawlessness—is God's goal for your life Above all, you'll be reminded of this truth: The God who began the good work in you will complete it. This message is for the believer who wants clarity… for the struggling Christian who feels unworthy… for the weary saint trapped in legalism… and for anyone longing to walk in grace, assurance, and Spirit-empowered holiness. If God started it, God will sustain it—and God will finish it. Subscribe for more messages of hope, truth, and Spirit-filled teaching. Like, comment, and share to spread the Word!
In this message, Pastor Andrew begins a vital new series that will carry us all the way to Christmas: Growing in Knowing. This first message — “The God You Know” — lays the foundation for what may be one of the most important studies our church has walked through. In Colossians 1:9–10, Paul prays that believers would be “filled with the knowledge of His will… increasing in the knowledge of God.” That prayer reveals a stunning truth: it is possible to believe in God, attend church, and even serve — and still not truly know Him. In this message, Pastor Andrew confronts one of the greatest crises of the modern church:
“So I sought for a man among them who would make a wall, and stand in the gap before Me on behalf of the land, that I should not destroy it; but I found no one.” — Ezekiel 22:30 (NKJV) In this powerful message, “Standing in the Gap,” Pastor Andrew dives into God's heartbreaking search for an intercessor — someone willing to step into the breach and contend for a people, a generation, and a nation. From the Hebrew word perets (breach, break, gap), we learn that a “gap” in Scripture represents vulnerability and spiritual exposure. Where there is a breach, the enemy finds access. But God's heart is always restoration — to repair the breach, rebuild the ruins, and restore what has fallen (Isaiah 58:12; Amos 9:11). In this message we explore:
1 Corinthians 2:9 “But as it is written: ‘Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.'” This message dives deep into one of the most powerful promises in Scripture — the truth that God has prepared things for His people that our natural eyes, ears, and minds can't even begin to comprehend. In this sermon, Pastor Andrew Eldridge explores the dual revelation of this verse — the glory that awaits us in eternity, and the power and purpose God is revealing right now. Through Scripture, revelation, and encouragement, you'll be reminded that: ✨ God is still acting, still moving, still preparing, and still revealing. ✨ True knowledge of God doesn't come through intellect alone — it comes by revelation of the Spirit. ✨ Heaven isn't the only place where blessing begins — the same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead is working in you today! ✨ The best is yet to come — in your life, your home, and in the Church! If you've been discouraged, weary, or wondering what's next, this message will renew your hope and stir your faith to believe that eye has not seen what God has in store for those who love Him.
Back to the Basics (Part 6): The Baptism of the Holy Ghost
“It's a different time in pastoring, and a lot of guys are struggling with staying in the ministry, staying in the pastorate, they feel like failures, so it's really important for the church to show love back to them.” Dr. Tim York talks about the critical need for churches to value their pastor and bless him and show him support, both during Pastor Appreciation Month and throughout the year. Dr. York is moderator of the NAFWB and pastors two churches: The Grove Church and Rejoice Church. #NAFWB #BetterTogether #Pastors #PastorAppreciation #PastorAppreciationMonth
Faith is where it all begins. From the moment God called Abraham to leave everything familiar and step into the unknown, the life of faith was born. Today, the Spirit of the Lord is calling us back to the foundation of our walk with Him — a life built on complete trust and confidence in God. In this message, Pastor Andrew Eldridge takes us through the story of Abraham — the Father of Faith — to remind us that: • Faith begins with a call. God speaks first, and we respond. • Faith requires leaving in order to receive. Sometimes you must step out of what's comfortable to walk into what's promised. • Faith looks forward. God rarely shows us the whole picture, but He always gives us His word. • Faith obeys. True faith moves — it acts on what God has said, even when you don't have all the answers. • Faith grows. Abraham's journey wasn't perfect, but he kept walking — and so must we. • Faith points us to Christ. The same faith that was counted to Abraham as righteousness is now fulfilled in Jesus.
When most people hear witchcraft, they think of witches, cauldrons, spells, and Halloween. But the Bible reveals something far deeper—and far more dangerous. Witchcraft isn't just about the occult; it is a spirit of manipulation, rebellion, and counterfeit spirituality that seeks to infiltrate even the church. In this in-depth study, Pastor Andrew unpacks what Scripture really teaches about witchcraft, sorcery, and control. Together, we'll look at:
Who is God—really? Not just who He is to you, but who He declares Himself to be in His Word. In this message from 2 Peter 3:18, Pastor Andrew calls us to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Too many believers stop at “Jesus is my Savior” and never go deeper. But Scripture urges us to study, to know His character, and to let Him reveal Himself—not to create our own definition.
September 14th Sunday Morning by The Grove Church
In this Sunday's message, Pastor Andrew preaches from Song of Solomon 2:8–13 on the call of the Bridegroom to His bride: “Rise up, My love, My fair one, and come away.” The Song of Solomon may seem like just a love story between a man and a woman, but Paul reminds us: “first the natural, then the spiritual” (1 Corinthians 15:46). Spiritually, this passage paints a powerful picture of Christ and His church. Just as the Bridegroom calls His bride, Jesus is calling His people today into intimacy with Him. In this message, Pastor Andrew challenges us with three calls: 1️⃣ Come away from the world – We cannot cling to the world and still pursue the presence of Christ. 2️⃣ Come away from religion – God is after relationship, not ritual. 3️⃣ Come away to the secret place – Beyond separation, Christ invites us into deep intimacy with Him. The season is changing. Winter is past. Flowers are appearing. The voice of the Beloved is calling: “Rise up, My love, and come away.”
Shady Grove Church – Study in Romans The book of Romans is one of the richest, most powerful, and most theologically profound letters in all of Scripture. Written by the Apostle Paul around A.D. 56, Romans provides a clear and orderly presentation of the gospel message—showing that both Jews and Gentiles alike are in need of salvation, and that justification comes by faith alone in Jesus Christ. In this video, Pastor Andrew walks through Romans chapter 2 and the beginning of chapter 3, where Paul addresses both Jews and Gentiles, showing that all are accountable before God. Having the Law is not enough—what matters is true righteousness, which comes only through faith in Christ. Together, we'll explore: God's impartial judgment of Jews and Gentiles alike (Romans 2:1–29) Why outward religion or heritage cannot save us How all humanity is guilty before God (Romans 3:1–12) The good news that justification is by faith, not by works We'll also draw personal application from Paul's message, including: ✅ Trusting Christ alone for salvation ✅ Rejecting self-righteousness ✅ Understanding God's righteous judgment ✅ Rejoicing in the gospel that saves both Jew and Gentile Romans is more than theology—it's the gospel applied to everyday life. Join us as we dive deep into this life-changing book and discover the righteousness of God revealed through faith in Christ.
