5/31/26-Dr. Phillip Burden-God's Hall of Faith_ Endless Examples of Faith (Part 2) | Hebrews 11_36-38 by Sermons from FBCOzark
Featuring: Judah Thomas, David LaManna, Lenny Salgado, Johnny V., Mike McHugh, and James Gowell Edited by: Tim NicholsonIn this episode of Thriving in the Word, we continue The Hall of Faith series and we stop at a man who left his home without a destination, waited 25 years for a son, and then was asked to give him back.We walk through Genesis 12, 15, and 22 and trace it into Hebrews 11:8–19, where Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out, not knowing where he was going. He lived in tents. He waited on a promise that looked impossible. And when God finally gave him Isaac, the miracle, the heir, the whole future of the covenant, God asked Abraham to put him on the altar.And Abraham went up the mountain.That's not blind faith. That's tested faith.We talk about what it actually means to follow God when the destination is unknown, when the promise is delayed by decades, when obedience costs you the one thing you love most. Abraham didn't just believe in God. He believed God was capable of raising the dead, because that was the only way this could end well.That leads us into some honest questions: Do we trust God's promises when the timeline makes no sense? Are we willing to follow when we don't have the full picture? And when God asks for the thing we've built our whole life around, will we go up the mountain?Topics include: Hall of Faith, Hebrews 11, Abraham, Genesis 12, Genesis 22, faith and obedience, trusting God's promises, obeying without a destination, faith that waits, Abraham and Isaac, Mount Moriah, covenant faith, what is faith, walking with God, friend of God, radical obedience, delayed promises, trusting God's timing, faith under pressure, endurance, Christian podcast, Bible teaching, Bible study on Abraham, faith-based living, tested faith, believing the impossible, God's faithfulness.More Info: https://www.thrive.church Give: https://www.thrive.church/give/ Need prayer? prayer@thrive.church This is a presentation of Thrive.Church. © All Rights Reserved.

5/24/26-Dr. Phillip Burden-God's Hall of Faith: Endless Examples of Faith by Sermons from FBCOzark
Featuring: Judah Thomas, David LaManna, Lenny Salgado, Johnny V., Mike McHugh, and James Gowell Edited by: Tim NicholsonIn this episode of Thriving in the Word, we continue The Hall of Faith series and we stop at a man who built something no one had ever seen, for a disaster no one believed was coming, in a world that had never seen rain.We walk through Genesis 6 and trace it into Hebrews 11:7, where Noah warned about things not yet seen, moved in holy fear and built an ark to save his family. And while the whole world watched and mocked and kept living like nothing was wrong, Noah kept swinging the hammer.That's not stubbornness. That's obedience.We talk about what it actually means to obey God when it doesn't make sense, when the assignment looks ridiculous, when the timeline is 120 years long, and when nobody around you believes what you believe. Noah didn't just have faith in a promise. He built something with it.That leads us into some honest questions:Will we obey God when the instructions don't come with an explanation? Do we only follow God when it's convenient or culturally acceptable? Are we building what He's asked us to build, or are we waiting for the world to validate the blueprint first?From there, the conversation gets real. Think about what it costs to be different, not just a little different, but build-an-ark-in-your-front-yard different. Noah's obedience wasn't quiet. It was public. It was long. And it condemned the world simply by being faithful.Topics include: Hall of Faith, Hebrews 11, Noah, Genesis 6, faith and obedience, obeying God, building in faith, holy fear, righteous in a corrupt generation, Noah and the ark, Bible study on Noah, faith without explanation, what is obedience, walking with God, trusting God's instructions, long obedience in the same direction, faith that costs something, endurance, discipleship, spiritual formation, Christian podcast, Bible teaching, faith-based living, the flood, ark, righteousness through faith, will we obey God, obedience over comfort, hearing God and doing it.This faith-based Christian podcast is for anyone who wants Bible teaching that doesn't stay on the surface, because obedience isn't an emotion. It's a decision. And Noah made it for 120 years without a single person in his corner.The question isn't whether God is asking. The question is: will we obey?More Info: https://www.thrive.church Give: https://www.thrive.church/give/ Need prayer? prayer@thrive.churchThis is a presentation of Thrive.Church. © All Rights Reserved.

Featuring: Judah Thomas, David LaManna, Lenny Salgado, Mike McHugh, and James Gowell Edited by: Tim NicholsonIn this episode of Thriving in the Word, we continue The Hall of Faith series and we stop at a man who never died. A man who walked with God so closely that one day, God simply took him home.We walk through Genesis 5 and trace it into Hebrews 11:5, where Enoch, 300 years of unbroken communion with God, is lifted as one of the greatest acts of faith ever recorded. And he did it without a single page of Scripture in his hands.That's not a footnote. That's the whole point.We talk about what it actually means to walk with God, not just talking at Him, not just showing up when life gets hard, but walking with Him, the way you walk with someone whose company you genuinely love.That leads us into some honest questions:Are we walking with God or just talking at Him? Do we acknowledge God in all things, or only when we need something? Are we companions of God or just acquaintances?From there, the conversation gets real. Think about a hike or a long walk with someone you fully trust, the silence isn't awkward, it's comfortable. You never want it to end. God wants that same thing from us. Not constant chatter. Not a running list of needs. Sometimes He just wants you present, aware of Him, enjoying Him, the way you enjoy a meal with someone whose company you'd never trade.James shares a story about a speeding ticket and what it looks like to acknowledge God in everything, not just the moments that feel spiritual. Lenny jumps in with his own history behind the wheel. And Judah tells the story of a contest held before GPS existed, challengers had to find the fastest route from New York to San Francisco (I think it was these two cities...doesn't matter as it's not the point), and the winner didn't submit a map. He submitted two words: "Good Company."We close with 30 seconds of complete silence on the Blue Mic, because sometimes the most faithful thing we can do is stop talking and let Jesus speak. Jesus gets the mic for 30 seconds to wrap us up.Topics include: Hall of Faith, Hebrews 11, Enoch, Genesis 5, walking with God, being present with God, companionship with God, silence in prayer, awareness of God's presence, enjoying God's presence, faith without the Bible, acknowledging God in all things, spiritual intimacy, companion of God, Good Company, spiritual formation, discipleship, faith-based living, Christian podcast, Bible teaching, endurance, and the question we all eventually have to answer: Are you walking with God or just near Him?This faith-based Christian podcast is for anyone who wants Bible teaching that doesn't stay on the surface because walking with God isn't a ritual. It's a relationship. And Enoch proves it doesn't require a program, it requires His presence.More Info: https://www.thrive.church Give: https://www.thrive.church/give/ Need prayer? prayer@thrive.churchThis is a presentation of Thrive.Church. © All Rights Reserved.

Featuring: Judah Thomas, David LaManna, Lenny Salgado, Johnny V., Ben Cossette, Mike McHugh, and James GowellEdited by: Tim NicholsonIn this episode of Thriving in the Word, we kick off a brand-new series — The Hall of Faith — and we don't start with the obvious heroes. We start at the beginning, with two brothers, one altar, and a question from God that changes everything.We walk through Genesis 4 and trace it into Hebrews 11:4, where Abel — a man who died at the hands of his own brother — is listed among the greatest acts of faith ever recorded. That's not an accident. That's a statement.We talk about what made Abel's offering acceptable and Cain's rejected — and it has everything to do with the heart behind the worship, not just the act itself.That leads us into some honest, uncomfortable questions:Are we bringing God what He asks for — or what's convenient for us?What do we do when we do the right thing and it still don't get what we expected?Is there an area of your life right now where sin is crouching at the door — and you already know it?From there, the conversation moves into the reality of unchecked anger, jealousy, and pride — and how quickly they move from a feeling to a decision to a consequence we can't take back.Hebrews calls Abel a man of faith — even after his death, he still speaks. This episode asks the question: what will your life say when it's over? Are you building something that outlasts you, or are you slowly negotiating away the things that matter most?Topics include: Hall of Faith, Hebrews 11, Genesis 4, Cain and Abel, faith and worship, acceptable offering, heart posture, jealousy and envy, anger, sin crouching at the door, God's warning, Abel's legacy, faith after death, spiritual formation, denying yourself, obedience, doing what is right, God's mercy, grace, discipleship, endurance, and the question we all eventually face: Are you doing what is right — or just what feels right?This faith-based Christian podcast is for anyone who wants Bible teaching that doesn't stay on the surface — because real faith isn't just believed, it's lived.More Info: https://www.thrive.church Give: https://www.thrive.church/give/ Need prayer? prayer@thrive.churchThis is a presentation of Thrive.Church. © All Rights Reserved.

4/19/26-Dr. Phillip Burden-God's Hall of Faith-The Faith of Moses by Sermons from FBCOzark
Join us as Jonathan Pennington unpacks Hebrews 11, where we're reminded that faith is trusting in God's promises, even when we can't yet see their fulfillment. Through the lives of those who have gone before us, we see a pattern of endurance and hope, rooted in God's unchanging faithfulness across generations. As pilgrims on the same journey, we're invited to live by that same faith as we look ahead to the redemption still to come.Scripture: Hebrews 11Pastor: Jonathan Pennington

In this powerful message, we conclude our “Greater Than” series by answering the ultimate question: If Jesus is greater than everything, how are we supposed to live? Using the metaphor of a spiritual marathon, Pastor Parker dives into the book of Hebrews to reveal the secret to endurance when you're feeling exhausted, not falling away. Discover the three essential steps to finish the race God has marked out for you: learning how to “lose the weight” of hurry and comparison, how to “fix your eyes” on Jesus as the trailblazing Pioneer and Perfecter of your faith, and how to “remember the joy” that allowed Jesus to endure the Cross—the joy of a relationship with you. Stop running for God and start running with Him, knowing the pressure is off and the prize is certain.

All throughout the Bible we see wonderful examples of God using people greatly as they turned to Him in faith. The good news is, just as God used these men and women, He can use us too! Today on a Daily Walk we'll be encouraged by some examples of faith and their accomplishments by the grace of God. Pastor John Randall has an eye on Hebrews eleven, and verses 23-40.

Each of us are faced with a choice in life, similar to Moses. And that is will we choose the eternal or the passing pleasures of sin? Moses was remembered in the Hall of Faith because he looked to the reward, his faith transformed his values and shaped his decisions. Let's be encouraged to do the same.

As we conclude our series on Hebrews 11, we are encouraged as believers to continue to run the race set before us. It's important to remain strong in our faith, especially during tough times. As a church, we are to encourage one another to press on, to fix our eyes on Jesus, and to run.
Hebrews 11:32-38 highlights the duality of facing troubles while expecting victory through Christ, referencing biblical figures who exemplified true faith. It calls for passionate living and addressing complacency all while encouraging believers to deepen their trust in God.
Pastor Mike teaches on Hebrews 11:30-31 which highlights faith of the Israelites as they obey God's command to march around Jericho. God encourages us to trust in His plan even when we don't understand and even when it doesn't make sense. Rahab sees God's power and develops a personal relationship with Him, saving her faith saving her and her whole household.

Danny shares his journey to becoming a youth director, encouraging youth to stand firm in faith. The study of Hebrews chapter 11 highlights faith through Old Testament examples. Moses exemplifies faith, prioritizing spiritual riches and leading the Israelites to salvation, emphasizing the importance of a personal relationship with Jesus.
Faith, described in Hebrews chapter 11, is described as tests that provide opportunities for growth. The narrative highlights God's promises, the importance of reliance on divine strength, and the significance of forgiveness, encouraging a deeper relationship with God and community connection.
Who are you, really? In a culture rife with comparison, the question of identity is one that tends to plague many of us. Is your identity anchored in things such as your accomplishments, your net worth, your social media presence—or in God's purpose and plan for your life?
