This is a basic message on what it means to be a Christian, laying a foundation for deeper studies into Revelation. Today's common terms of “accepting” or “receiving” Christ do not convey their root meanings of grasping and holding on to Him.  Being a Christian is not something we are born into, that is done by our own will, or by others wanting it for us.  God is the initiator of our salvation.  It is His regeneration in us that makes us new creatures in Christ.

In this episode we're joined by Rev. Dr. Malcolm Foley, Pastor at Mosaic Waco, Special Advisor to the President for Equity and Campus Engagement at Baylor University, and the author of The Anti-Greed Gospel: Why the Love of Money Is the Root of Racism and How the Church Can Create a New Way Forward (published by Baker). Over the course of our conversation we talk about how Jesus is calling Christians not simply to be generous, which can lead to paternalism, but more specifically anti-greedy, actively rooting out sites in our lives where greed can grow and take over. We discuss several biblical passages about wealth and riches on the one hand and the value of sharing on the other. Team Members on the episode from The Two Cities include: Rev. Dr. Nathaniel Adishian, Dr. John Anthony Dunne, and Rev. Daniel Parham. Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on December 8, 2024) When we paused the message yesterday, we were learning that our self image should be different after we are born again. In our Christian self image, we should no longer see sin in the same way; rather than acceptable, we should see it as reprehensible....

Even with the wisdom of God's Word and the presence of the Holy Spirit, Christians still wrestle to align their values with God's.In today's episode, we continue our sermon series from the archives, Elect Exiles, from 1 Peter. In this message, Paul unpacks three core values from 1 Peter that can reshape how we live as we wait for Christ's return.For more sermons from Paul, visit PaulTripp.com/Sermons.

John gives us a glimpse into the mystery and majesty of the throne room in heaven, seeing the triune God and those that surround Him. There, John sees the 24 elders who have been redeemed for a purpose: to praise and worship God as they behold the spectacle of salvation. We who have been redeemed exist for the same purpose, and we can prepare to spend eternity with Him by praising Him in all things.

Globalism: One more thing we read about first, in the Bible. In the past there were some monarchs who believed themselves to be king of kings, ruler of the world - but they weren't really. As vast as their empire may have been, it was only the civilized world, or the known world. But there's a man coming who will really subjugate the entire planet. He's a globalist dream-come-true, and a nightmare for everyone else. Here's Jim with the message, Superman Rules the Earth.

A crucial and often uncomfortable topic that touches the heart of many individuals and churches alike is that of sexual sin and its impact on the Body of Christ. There is no doubt that there is something particularly devastating when one hears that a church friend, a confidante, or leader in the church has committed sexual sin. It is an offense to Christ and a violation of trust. For the church, it feels like the ultimate act of hypocrisy. How does a person recover from this kind of sin? Is it possible to find victory again? How should the church respond to recover those people who have fallen in this way? How do we promote faith within the church family despite the feelings of betrayal that they have? In today's episode, we will explore the biblical subject of sexual sin, fornication, and its ramifications on the church. We will also discuss what it looks like to break free from sexual sin and find the road to recovery. To have this conversation, we have invited Dan Reneau, Pastor of Living Faith Lee's Summit and a professor of Biblical Studies at Living Faith Bible Institute.Visit https://www.lfbi.org/learnmore

This week, we took a break from Haggai and our Whole Heart series to hear a message on prayer from our Student Pastor, Ryan Oakes. Drawing from Philippians 4, Ryan reminded us that prayer is not about getting everything we ask for, but about being with God in every moment and bringing our honest selves before Him. He challenged us to let go of our desire for control and trust that, while God may not always change our circumstances, He promises a peace that guards our hearts.

Each of the seven churches suffered from something that had the power to hinder them from overcoming. As believers, we face the same things in a life-long battle for our soul, and for the church: a wrestling match with the world, the flesh, and the devil. Overcoming isn't easy, but if we focus on Christ, the giver, the one who already overcame the world, the flesh, and the works of the devil, none of these things will separate us from Him who's given us the key to overcoming, and that is by simple faith in Him.

There is nothing "basic" about THE BASICS.

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on May 18, 2025) In the sermon today, we ask the question, “Has the devil ever been your father?” The answer we most often find in the religious world is that there was a time when the devil was indeed our father, but through the exercise of our wills...

When was the last time you slowed down enough to hear God's voice? What do you do when God's Word is hard to receive? In a time when God's voice was rarely heard and spiritual darkness covered the land, the Lord broke His silence—not through a priest or a king, but through a young boy named Samuel. This moment would mark a turning point in Israel's history and reveal something essential about how God speaks—and how we must respond. In his message, “When God Speaks,” centered on 1 Samuel 3:1-21, Pastor Josiah explores the critical difference between those who reject God's word and those who receive it in faith. God is still speaking. The question is—are we listening?

In the beginning, God didn't just create individuals—He formed a world that was woven together in relational goodness. “Very good” wasn't about perfection; as much as it was about connection. We were made to flourish in relationship not in isolation. God isn't just saving you—He's saving us.
