Pastor Brian teaches on God's pattern of how he elevates people spiritually.

In this sermon, Pastor Brian tackles the question that has nagged him most as a worship pastor: "What are we doing here?" He explains that Biblical worship involves humbling ourselves before God and demonstrating His worthiness through our actions and attention. Jesus told us in John 4 that "true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father is seeking such people." Pastor Brian distinguishes between two essential types of worship. First, private worship (Monday through Saturday) deepens our closeness with God through both scheduled devotional times and spontaneous moments of praise. Second, corporate worship (Sunday) strengthens our identity as Christ followers when we assemble together. The Sunday service follows an intentional order to offer our collective worship in an orderly way, as Paul instructed in 1 Corinthians. Pastor Brian concludes with practical takeaways: establish a private worship practice, set prayer triggers throughout your day, memorize Scripture, and get involved with a local assembly of believers, as Hebrews 10:25 encourages us not to give up meeting together.

This week, Pastor Brian continues to walk through the final chapter of Revelation with a message titled The Eyewitness. As the Apostle John reflects on all he has seen and heard, he embraces his responsibility to testify—and reminds us that we have that same calling.

This sermon challenges us to recognize the urgency of our moment and boldly share our stories as faithful witnesses to Christ's redeeming work.

When we feel downhearted and utterly defeated—remember, God isn't bestowing that feeling! Satan lays guilt on us, but God says “There is no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus” (Romans 8:1). Look up from your earthly struggles! Don't define yourself by what you see—define yourself by Whose you are. There's nothing that the devil can hold against you that beats the power of Jesus.

This exploration of Luke 16 delves into the concept of 'mammon' and its spiritual significance. We discover that mammon goes beyond money, representing a spirit that seeks to usurp God's place in our lives. This message urges us to reflect on our relationship with wealth, highlighting the impossibility of serving both God and mammon. It uncovers the lies mammon tells, such as the belief that more money could solve all problems. By understanding mammon's nature, we can resist its influence and realign our hearts with God's values. The sermon encourages living generously and using our resources for eternal impact, shifting our focus from earthly wealth to heavenly treasures.Get more out of today's teaching by visiting our Church Online page for things like our community guide, a weekly devotional, and the teaching slides.
