Listen to a message from Emmanuel Baptist Church of Longview, TX.Support the show
More and more it seems we have forgotten just how important the church is. When we associate the church with a building and not people, this can be easy to do. When we forget that the church is the body of Christ, and every member is a part of the body, we can be fooled into believing we can walk the narrow road alone. Every part plays a part in maintaining the health of the church. In this sermon, Trevor Knox expounds on three essential qualities for a healthy church. Amidst the criticism that the church gets, Trevor leaves us with a convicting question ... "If everyone treated the church like me, what type of church would this be?"
What does it really mean to be the Church—not just attend one or have your name on a membership roll? In this message from Ephesians 2, we're reminded that the Church is more than a place or a program—it's the body of Christ, made up of people who were once far from God but have been brought near by His grace. Paul walks us through what the Church is not (divided, hopeless, without God) before showing us what Jesus has made it to be: unified, at peace, and built together into a dwelling place for God. A healthy church breaks down walls, embraces peace, and focuses on being over doing.

A healthy church, reflecting the transformation seen in Nehemiah chapter 8, will show several key characteristics. This chapter describes a significant change occurring in the people's hearts and lives, showing not just in words but in actions. This change begins with a deep engagement with God's Word. Ultimately, we desire for the church to experience this kind of transformation seen in Nehemiah 8, moving from weeping over sin to the joy of the Lord, being doers of the Word and not merely hearers.

What Drives a Healthy Church? // Ryland Walter // Every church is driven by something. There is a guiding force influencing every aspect of the church's life. Some churches are driven by tradition or finances. Others are driven by buildings or politics. What is the driving force behind Rock Brook?

Message from Pastor Lynn on May 18, 2025
Making disciples.These are words that we might see on a church website and it's definitely ones that Pastors or Missionaries like.But, if we are honest, most of us have no clue what it means to be apart of “making” someone a disciple of Jesus.Well, this weekend, we are going to flesh out what this means as we study Titus 2:1-10.And what we will discover is that, for a church to be healthy it must not only have Pastors committed to teaching sound doctrine and living out their faith; no, many unhealthy churches can have that.A healthy church must have more.It must have godly men and women committed to living out their identity as disciples and their calling to make disciples. But, again, what does this mean? Is it a 10 step program? A course offered at Millar College? A seminar we attend?This weekend, we want to explain how we practically live out this calling and explain what we mean when we use biblical phrases like this.For, if we are to be faithful to Jesus' commands, we have to know what a disciple is, and then, becoming convinced we have a role to play in helping other to follow Jesus, we need to know who to prioritize in discipleship and how to practically do this out. Honestly, our goal this weekend is to de-mystify disciplemaking and show you how you can get off the bleachers and into the game that God created you to be apart of so that we can be faithful to Jesus, who commanded us to go and make disciples (Matthew 28:19-20).

Paul White teaching from Paul White Ministries.
In the final episode of the series, McGregor, Suzanne, and Rex talk about love. Why is this a sign of health for a church? What happens when this gets neglected? Listen in and find out.
"Your gifts might open doors in ministry, but your emotional health and family life will determine how long you can stay in the room."In this episode, Jason and Lauren Vallotton dive into the crucial (and often overlooked) connection between emotional health, family life, and sustainable ministry. Ministry isn't just about being gifted—it's about being grounded. Whether you're a pastor, leader, or someone pursuing a call to serve, this conversation offers a timely reminder: who you are behind closed doors matters more than what you can do on stage.

Let's be honest: a lot of people wrestle with the point of church. Why gather? Why commit to a church family? Maybe you've been hurt in the past, maybe life feels too busy, or maybe you've even thought, “Can't I just follow Jesus on my own?” This week, we're diving into Hebrews 13:7–21 as Pastor Doug helps us explore what it truly means to be part of a healthy, life-giving church. This isn't a guilt trip—it's an invitation. A fresh reminder of the beauty and purpose found when we live out our faith together. So come be encouraged. Bring a friend who's been feeling disconnected. Let's rediscover why the Church matters and how it can be a place of hope and healing again.
A healthy church honors its leaders, cares for one another with patience and wisdom, and pursues good in all circumstances as a reflection of Christ's love.
