This message explores the spiritual burden of neglecting our relationship with God, especially during seasons of drift like summer. Drawing from Psalm 91, the message contrasts the passive drift of spiritual neglect with the intentional, daily act of abiding in God's presence. It emphasizes that abiding doesn't promise a pain-free life, but it does offer an unshakable one. The sermon unpacks how neglect leads to fear, anxiety, and self-reliance, while abiding brings peace, protection, and intimacy with God. Ultimately, it invites listeners to return to the shelter of the Most High, reminding them that even when we drift, God's heart remains open and ready to receive us back.ASL interpretation is provided starting 20 seconds into message. Questions?

In this series, Pastor Caleb will describe the great gospel and how we should think about outreach. In Part One, from Romans 9:30- 10:3, we will learn that despite faithful prayers for our neighbors' salvation, many reject the gospel - caught in a failed pursuit of righteousness by works and displaying fallacious piety marked by zeal without knowledge

In this message, Pastor Caleb discusses Matthew chapter 7 as Jesus gives the Sermon on the Mount.  Looking at what Jesus defines as religiosity and helping others, it is essential to catch the heart of God and be led by His Spirit.  How can a person help others if they are not taking care of the beam in their own eye?  While others refuse all help to make their life better.  Send us a textSupport the showFor more information for our church visit AGCSparta.org.

June 25, 2025 - Pastor Caleb Curtis

Get ready for a powerful, tag-team message from our VIVE Campus Pastors, Pastor Henok, Pastor Caleb, and Pastor Davide. In this special AMEN Sunday edition, “Called to Go” challenges us to surrender control and trust God's calling on our lives. Lean in, let go and let God.

Public displays of affection can be endeavoring for some and off-putting for others. We tend to avoid people who seem too flamboyant or extra in their gestures of appreciation. This passage showcases a woman who drops everything she has to worship at the feet of Jesus. The surrounding crowd is offended by her grand gesture. The irony being is it if they truly recognized Jesus and who He really is, they wouldn't be judging her but joining her. This passage shows us that there are two types of people that worship God, people who do too much and others who do too little.

In this message, Pastor Caleb discusses the importance of the title given to Jesus within one's heart.  A person will live by the title they give Jesus Christ.  Not all Christians will title Him as He should be titled within their lives.  What title do you give Jesus?Send us a textSupport the showFor more information for our church visit AGCSparta.org.

In this lesson, Pastor Caleb teaches the legalistic ditch of the spirit of religiosity through looking at Martha's interaction with Mary.  Having the right actions but the wrong heart is still not right standing with God.  Please see The Spirit of Religiosity (enduringwordministries.org) for a printable version of these lessons.  Send us a textSupport the showFor more information for our church visit AGCSparta.org.

In this message, Pastor Caleb discusses the importance of knowing the Word of God and doing the Word of God.  The religious mindset will choose one of two ditches that lean on knowing or doing, but God desires His people to know and do while keeping a heart of faith.  Christians must overcome the religious mindset.  Send us a textSupport the showFor more information for our church visit AGCSparta.org.

Pastor Caleb, our Student Pastor, shares inspiration with us from Psalm 1.

Pastor Caleb Slavik delivers a message entitled "The Overflow of Obedience"

Matthew 7:15-20 tells us that the world should know us by our good fruits that we produce. This week Pastor Caleb looks at one attribute of the fruit of the spirit– Love.

In Genesis 3, Adam and Eve fall into the trap of imitation—grasping for God's authority, righteousness, and relationship—rather than walking in authentic trust. This same pattern is echoed in 1 John 2 and Matthew 4, where Jesus resists the very temptations they succumbed to. Through His perfect obedience and sacrificial covering, Jesus frees us from the need to perform or hide, inviting us into a life of authenticity. In a season where spiritual drift is common, we're called to shed the baggage of imitation and walk openly and honestly with God. Questions?
