In this second message of the series, we explore the arrival of two angels in Sodom and Lot's urgent invitation for them to stay in his home. Genesis 19 shows the immediate danger surrounding them as the men of the city demand access to Lot's guests, revealing the depth of moral corruption in Sodom. The passage highlights a moment of crisis where fear, pressure, and responsibility collide.The sermon focuses on Lot's shocking offer of his two daughters to the mob in an attempt to protect his guests. Genesis 19:5–8 is examined closely to show the intensity of the situation and the moral confusion that arises under pressure. Lot's actions are discussed in light of his desire for hospitality and protection, even as he makes a deeply flawed decision.We also see how the angels intervene, pulling Lot back inside and striking the men with blindness in Genesis 19:10–11. This divine intervention emphasizes God's protection and His plan to rescue Lot from destruction while still executing judgment on the city. Genesis 19:13 confirms the coming destruction due to the overwhelming outcry against Sodom's sin.The sermon then connects Lot's fear-driven decision-making to broader biblical teaching on righteousness, human weakness, and influence. Even righteous people can be overwhelmed by sinful environments.In 2 Peter 2:7–8, Lot is described as distressed by the wickedness around him. The message also draws on the principle that bad company corrupts good character, reminding believers that environment and influence matter deeply.Ultimately, this teaching emphasizes that God can still intervene and correct our mistakes, even when we act out of fear or confusion. It challenges believers to act in faith rather than panic, trust God under pressure, and step into obedience without hesitation, knowing that God is able to guide and redeem imperfect actions.Referenced Verses:Genesis 19:1–13Genesis 19:5Genesis 19:6-7Genesis 19:82 Peter 2:7–81 Corinthians 15:33Romans 3:10Psalms 14:3Psalms 53:3Ecclesiastes 7:20Genesis 19:10Genesis 19:13

Sodom and Gomorrah reveal the serious consequences of unchecked sin, rebellion, and rejection of God's standards.In this first message of the Sodom, Gomorrah, Lot, and His Daughters sermon series, we examine Genesis 18–19 and explore why these cities became known throughout Scripture as examples of extreme wickedness and divine judgment. The sermon focuses on God's declaration that the outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah had become so great and their sin so grievous that He would investigate and bring judgment upon them. Through Genesis 18:20-21, we see that God is aware of human actions and responds to persistent evil and injustice.The sermon explores the wickedness of Sodom and Gomorrah, focusing on the widespread immorality and corruption that defined these cities. It emphasizes how the people accepted behaviors God condemned, creating a culture that embraced sin instead of righteousness.The account then moves to Genesis 19, where angelic visitors arrive in Sodom and are welcomed by Lot. The reaction of the men of the city demonstrates the extent of the moral decay present within the community. Genesis 19:5 and Genesis 19:8-9 reveal a society consumed by sinful desires and hostile toward anyone who opposed them. These events set the stage for God's eventual destruction of the cities and Lot's dramatic escape.Ultimately, this teaching challenges believers to examine their own culture and lives through the lens of Scripture rather than public opinion. God does not change, and His standards remain consistent. Christians are called to pursue holiness, reject sin, and learn from biblical examples so they can live according to God's truth. This sermon serves as both a warning and an invitation to remain faithful to God's Word in every generation.Referenced Verses:Genesis 18:20Genesis 18:21Genesis 19:5Genesis 19:8Genesis 19:9-Social Media Ministries, founded by Spencer Coffman, is committed to sharing the Word of God with the entire world.

Bobby Harrington unpacks research showing that 95% of North American churches lack a Jesus-style disciple-making culture, describing how consumerism, program-driven models, and unclear metrics have produced few reproducible disciples. He also shares encouraging findings: nine Level 5 churches demonstrate that multiplication is possible through seven shared practices—clarity of mission, simple reproducible models, prayer and scripture, relational life-on-life discipleship, clear pathways, mission beyond the walls, and aligned leadership.

Psalm 145 is King David's final psalm, and it serves as a powerful roadmap for a life of genuine praise. Blessing God is not about adding to who He is but about acknowledging who He already is. Praise grows naturally when we take time to remember and reflect on what God has done in our lives. God is compassionate, patient, and good to all people, not just those who follow Him. He is outside of time, sovereign over all creation, and our daily provider and sustainer. He is near to those who call on Him with sincerity and integrity. After a lifetime of victories and failures, David's conclusion was not bitterness or regret but praise. We have that same opportunity every single day.Support the show

Biblical teaching on evangelism, discipleship, and sharing the gospel—this sermon explains why believers are called to have beautiful feet by bringing the good news of Jesus Christ to others.This message explores Paul's teaching that salvation begins when people hear the gospel. Romans 10:13-15 shows that people cannot call on Christ unless they believe, cannot believe unless they hear, and cannot hear unless someone shares the message. Because of this, Scripture declares, “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news.”The sermon challenges believers to recognize their role in the Great Commission. Some are called to go and preach, while others are called to support and send those who minister. Both roles are essential in advancing God's kingdom and helping others come to faith.A major focus is the eternal impact of leading people toward Christ. James 5:20 reminds believers that turning a sinner from the error of their ways helps bring them from death to life. The message emphasizes that every Christian has a responsibility to share the hope they have received.The teaching also highlights that salvation is a gift from God, received by grace through faith (Ephesians 2:8). As believers grow in faith through hearing the Word of Christ (Romans 10:17), they are called not only to make converts but to make disciples, following Jesus' command in Matthew 28:19.Ultimately, the sermon encourages Christians to remember that someone once shared the gospel with them. Having called on the name of the Lord and been saved (Romans 10:9, Romans 10:13), believers are now called to help others hear, believe, and follow Christ.Referenced Verses:Romans 10:13-15James 5:20Ephesians 2:8Romans 10:17Matthew 28:19Romans 10:9Romans 10:13-Social Media Ministries, founded by Spencer Coffman, is committed to sharing the Word of God with the entire world.

In Matthew 28:18-20 Christ says the mission of the church is to go to all people groups and 1) baptize or submerge the people in relationship with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and 2) teach the people to do the things Jesus wants them to do. The focus of this sermon is on the responsibility of immersing fellow believers in the presence of fellow believers, especially of believers admonishing one another. The story in Acts 18:24-28 of Aquila and Priscilla taking Apollos aside and explaining “to him the way of God more accurately” is an example of discipling a fellow believer. According to Romans 15:14, ordinary believers are qualified to admonish. To admonish means to warn based on instruction. According to Galatians 6:1-5, admonition requires meekness and willingness to bear another's burden and address “a man overtaken in any trespass.” A trespass is a fault or misstep. A person who is spiritual can restore someone who has committed a trespass. According to I Thess. 5:14-15, different needs require different kinds of admonition. The unruly (insubordinate, undisciplined) should be warned, the fainthearted (timid) should be encouraged, and the weak should be supported. Matthew 18:15-22 says that those who do not receive admonition or discipline after being approached three times should be excommunicated. I Cor. 5 and II Cor. 2 also speak about excommunication and restoration. How can we best approach our responsibility to admonish and receive admonishment? I have observed that in general people do not like to be admonished, and neither do people like to admonish others, which results in the ordained doing most of the admonishing. Amidst these challenges it is important to remember that the level of love, humility, and secure belonging and attachment present in our relationships determines to a large extent how we share and receive admonishment.

After The War came to Fellowship Baptist Church, Bobby reflects on the joy of watching God use the next generation, especially as his son David recruited teens, helped in the invitation, and personally led several young men to Christ. But the episode moves beyond one exciting week of outreach to a bigger challenge from the Great Commission: every Christian has a next mission. If you have received the gospel, your next step is to grow; and as you grow, God calls you to go help others grow too. Topics Discussed The return of The War under Austin Brownlee's leadership Watching God use young people in evangelism David Bosler recruiting teens and leading several to Christ The follow-up event after The War: “The Next Mission” Matthew 28 and the Great Commission The receiving side of the Great Commission: grow The sending side of the Great Commission: go Baptism as the first step after salvation Surrendering to God's next step in your life Helping others take their next step without pride or condescension Depending on Christ's presence and power to fulfill His mission Key Takeaways Every saved young person has a next step. The first step after salvation is believer's baptism. Christian growth does not stop with one decision; God wants obedience in all things. The Great Commission is not only something you receive, but something you obey. God calls growing Christians to help others grow. You do not have to feel fully prepared before God can use you. Christ's mission requires surrender, but it also comes with His enabling presence. God wants to use you to make a difference in someone else's life.

Jesus Followers Must Meet Jesus' Expectation of His “Great Commission” By Both “Going” and “Making Disciples” MESSAGE SUMMARY: Jesus, in Luke 15:4-7, tells us, through His Parable of The Lost Sheep, the importance to God of our discipleship: “What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he has lost one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the open country, and go after the one that is lost, until he finds it? And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep that was lost.' Just so, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.".   Immediately before His Ascension into Heaven Jesus told the Apostles and us today, in His Great Commission found in Matthew 28:18-20, that as we go into our communities and into all parts of the world, we are to make disciples: “And Jesus came and said to them, ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.'”. We must begin, as followers of Jesus, to meet His fundamental expectation for us by both going and making disciples!   TODAY'S PRAYER: Abba Father, I open my clenched fists to surrender everything you have given to me. Reestablish my identity in you — not in my family, my work, my accomplishments, or what others think of me. Cleanse the things in me that are not conformed to your will. By faith I unite my will to yours so that the likeness of Jesus Christ may be formed in me. In his name, amen.         Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 85). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, because I am filled with the Holy Spirit, I will not be controlled by my Anxiety. Rather, I will walk in the Spirit's fruit of Peace. “The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.” (Galatians 5:22f).

Church growth is a gift, but it comes with real challenges. In Acts 6, the early church faced a crisis when rapid growth caused some of its most vulnerable members to be overlooked. Rather than slowing down or shutting the doors, the apostles restructured, delegated responsibility, and built a team capable of caring for everyone. The result was not less growth but more. A healthy church grows relationally, not just numerically, and every believer plays a role in making sure no one slips through the cracks. That means connecting with people you do not know yet, interceding for one another, inviting people into your everyday life, and serving where there is a need. Rest is also part of the equation, because sustainable faithfulness matters more than burning out. The mission has not changed: making disciples who carry the presence of Jesus into every area of life.Support the show

We also had Leonard Tanks Jr. join us to share his story of radical transformation and explain how discipleship happens through real-life relationships, surrender, and walking alongside others as they grow in Christ. Leonard is an apologist and emerging theologian based in Cleveland, Ohio, where he serves as the pastor and church planter of Reach City Church.

284. Live from the Running Track in Athens - 1 Corinthians 9 Today's episode takes us to Athens, where Cris stands among the ancient sporting sites of Greece and reflects on Paul's words in 1 Corinthians 9. Surrounded by the world that inspired Paul's athletic imagery, Cris explores what it means to "run in such a way as to get the prize", and how followers of Jesus can live with purpose, perseverance, and their eyes fixed on an eternal reward.   Support the podcast with a coffee....

Our Regional Director from Bakersfield, CA, Josh Sherley, did a great talk Saturday night of our Summit, zeroing in on the Target to Making Disciples and what that looks like today and in our ministry.  Many were inspired and many made major commitments to the Lord that night.  Listen and be challenged in your own life.

Arizona Christian University's most recent American Worldview Inventory report addressed the level of Biblical worldview in eight different categories. For the marketplace, I believe their category, Lifestyles, Behaviors, and Relationships is critical. Unfortunately, according to the report, only 10% of adults are integrating the Bible into their behaviors and relationships. Our biggest opportunity, however, lies ...

282. The Discipleship Crisis of Constant Noise We are being spiritually formed by constant noise, distraction and algorithms, often more than by Scripture, prayer or Christian community.

Small Groups are NOT the same as disciple-making. Brian was deep into Small Groups, doing it the way everyone's been doing it for ages, when the Lord suddenly convicted him that he wasn't actually fulfilling the Great Commission with the work he was doing. He chose the path of humility and allowed the Lord to strip him of all that he thought he knew, and to build him back up. And the results have been incredible. Brian's disciple-making went to the 4th and 5th generation and beyond, and he now helps churches make disciples who make disciples...again, getting to that magical 4th generation where growth becomes natural and expected. This is an exciting episode, and one in which I got a major download about something Brian said related to making both Small Groups AND disciple-making work hand in hand without cannibalizing each other.
