Have you ever wrestled with the weight of unforgiveness, wondering how many times you should forgive someone before saying "enough is enough"? In his powerful sermon, Pastor Dave addresses this challenging topic through the lens of Matthew 18, revealing the transformative power of grace and mercy. He illustrates that while we may seek to count offenses, Jesus calls us to forgive up to 490 times—not as an arithmetic exercise, but as a lifestyle of release and healing. Pastor Dave challenges us to see that our own unforgiveness not only shackles our relationships but also obstructs the abundant life God desires for us. He emphasizes the immense debt of sin that we all share, one that God has graciously wiped clean, and invites the congregation to reflect on how this experience of forgiveness should shape our interactions with others. By letting go of our grudges, we free ourselves from the bondage of bitterness. If you find yourself struggling with resentment or harboring pain from past offenses, this message is for you. Join us as we explore the freedom that comes from pouring out grace as we have received it. Don't hesitate—watch or listen to this transformative message now and discover the life-changing truth about forgiveness.Matthew 18:21-22 Then Peter came to Him and said, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?”22 Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven.23 Therefore the kingdom of heaven is like a certain king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants. 24 And when he had begun to settle accounts, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents. 25 But as he was not able to pay, his master commanded that he be sold, with his wife and children and all that he had, and that payment be made.26 The servant therefore fell down before him, saying, ‘Master, have patience with me, and I will pay you all.' 27 Then the master of that servant was moved with compassion, released him, and forgave him the debt.28 “But that servant went out and found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii; and he laid hands on him and took him by the throat, saying, ‘Pay me what you owe!'29 So his fellow servant fell down at his feet and begged him, saying, ‘Have patience with me, and I will pay you all.'30 And he would not, but went and threw him into prison till he should pay the debt.31 So when his fellow servants saw what had been done, they were very grieved, and came and told their master all that had been done. 32 Then his master, after he had called him, said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you begged me. 33 Should you not also have had compassion on your fellow servant, just as I had pity on you?' 34 And his master was angry, and delivered him to the torturers until he should pay all that was due to him.35 “So My heavenly Father also will do to you if each of you, from his heart, does not forgive his brother his trespasses.”Matthew 7:3 And why do you look at the speck in your brother's eye, but do not consider the plank in your own eye?

In Part 3 of The Blood Still Speaks, we explore four powerful ways the blood of Jesus is still speaking today. From interceding for sinners to declaring our freedom from darkness, this message dives deep into Hebrews 12 and unpacks how Christ's sacrifice transforms our identity, our mission, and our victory.

Pastor Dave's Sermon from 7/13/25:  "The Rhythm of the Church: Seasons and Colors and Changes: The Physical Space" Scripture Reading: 1 Kings 8: 12-30

How do we go from seasons of divine purpose to a path marked by despair? Pastor Dave invites us to delve deep into the story of Ahithophel, a man whose life spiraled from being a revered oracle of God to one consumed by bitterness and grief. In this enlightening sermon, Pastor examines 2 Samuel 16-17, highlighting how Ahithophel, once sought for his wise counsel, succumbed to a bitter heart after witnessing the sins of King David against his family. His tragic end serves as a striking reminder of the silent, destructive power of unforgiveness. Pastor Dave passionately underscores that the bitterness we carry not only affects our spiritual journey but ultimately robs us of our destiny, urging the congregation to self-reflect on their own grievances. Are you carrying bitterness that prevents you from fulfilling your purpose? This poignant message resonates deeply with anyone struggling to let go of past hurts, offering hope and guidance towards forgiveness. Join us on this transformative journey of healing and freedom, and don't miss the chance to receive the wisdom that could set you free. Watch or listen to the full sermon today and take the first step toward liberation!2 Samuel 16:23 Now the advice of Ahithophel, which he gave in those days, was as if one had inquired at the oracle of God. So was all the advice of Ahithophel both with David and with Absalom.2 Samuel 17:23 Now when Ahithophel saw that his advice was not followed, he saddled a donkey, and arose and went home to his house, to his city. Then he put his household in order, and hanged himself, and died; and he was buried in his father's tomb.2 Samuel 11:11 It happened in the spring of the year, at the time when kings go out to battle, that David sent Joab and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they destroyed the people of Ammon and besieged Rabbah. But David remained at Jerusalem.2 Then it happened one evening that David arose from his bed and walked on the roof of the king's house. And from the roof he saw a woman bathing, and the woman was very beautiful to behold. 3 So David sent and inquired about the woman. And someone said, “Is this not [a]Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?” 4 Then David sent messengers, and took her; and she came to him, and he lay with her, for she was cleansed from her impurity; and she returned to her house. 5 And the woman conceived; so she sent and told David, and said, “I am with child.”Vs 27 after Bathsheba mourned David took her in his house and married herAnd this displeased the lord what David had done2 Samuel 11:3 So David sent and inquired about the woman. And someone said, “Is this not Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?”2 Samuel 23:34 Eliphelet the son of Ahasbai, the son of the Maachathite, Eliam the son of Ahithophel the Gilonite, 35 Hezrai the Carmelite, Paarai the Arbite,Psalm 51:1 Have mercy upon me, O God, According to Your lovingkindness;According to the multitude of Your tender mercies,Blot out my transgressions. 2 Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity,And cleanse me from my sin. 3 For I acknowledge my transgressions,And my sin is always before me. 4 Against You, You only, have I sinned,And done this evil in Your sight—

In this sermon from Acts 19:1–7, Pastor Dave Bondeson unpacks Paul's encounter with unsure disciples in Ephesus. Through this passage, we confront key truths about baptism, salvation, and the Holy Spirit's role. Pastor Dave addresses common misconceptions such as spiritual gifts as proof of salvation, emphasizing that every believer receives the Holy Spirit at conversion. The message challenges us to minister from truth and live lives empowered, convicted, and led by the Spirit. A compelling call to walk in step with God's Spirit through truth and grace.

Getting My ACTs 2Gether Pt. 3Life is full of big decisions. It gets complicated. How do we avoid making bad decisions and living with fewer regrets? Here's how: Consider your destination. Pastor Dave explains.

Learn more about the Gospel in this message from Mark 1:1-11.

Victorious living is not about achieving a life free from struggle or pain, but about living in the reality of Christ's victory, no matter our circumstances. When we surrender our lives to Jesus, we are not simply making a decision to follow a set of rules or to improve ourselves; we are choosing a new Master. This surrender is not partial or conditional—it is an unconditional surrender, much like the conquered generals in a Roman triumphal procession, chained to the chariot of the victorious general. In the same way, we are called to be “chained” to Christ, following Him wherever He leads, trusting that His victory is our victory.The reality is that, as followers of Jesus, we inherit an enemy—Satan—who seeks to discourage, defeat, and even tempt us to reject Christ. Yet, the victory has already been won by Jesus on the cross and through His resurrection. Our role is not to fight for victory, but to walk in the victory that Christ has already secured. This does not mean that life will be easy or that we will not face hardship. Paul's own life was filled with suffering, persecution, and apparent defeat, yet he could say with confidence that he was always being led in Christ's triumph.The key to living in victory is not in our own strength or ability to “figure it all out,” but in our willingness to remain surrendered to Christ, no matter where He leads us. This surrender is not passive resignation, but an active, daily choice to stay “chained to the chariot,” trusting that Jesus is leading us, even through the darkest valleys. Our victory is not measured by outward success or comfort, but by our faithfulness to remain with Christ, knowing that He has already overcome every situation we will ever face.God's victory becomes ours through submission, and it remains ours as long as we choose to stay surrendered, regardless of the circumstances. There is no place, no situation, no hardship where Christ's victory does not reach. Even in the most painful moments, we can have confidence that if we are still following Jesus, He has already overcome, and we are walking in His victory.

In what way is Jesus superior in our life?

Pastor Steve and Pastor Dave discuss the Ordinary Time in the church calendar - a time of teaching, growth, and community building.

In this powerful kickoff to our new series, we dive into one of Christianity's most misunderstood foundations: the blood of Jesus. Why is it central to our faith? What does it really mean when we sing about the blood? Starting in Genesis and ending in Gethsemane, we explore the weight of sin, the necessity of justice, and the unmatched love of God that chose to redeem us—not because we're awesome, but because He is.Whether you've been in church your whole life or you're just curious, this message will challenge how you view sin, sacrifice, and the Savior.

In Part 2 of this series, we explore the connection between the Day of Atonement in Leviticus and the finished work of Jesus on the cross. Through the lens of Hebrews, we discover how Jesus became our Great High Priest—sinless, perfect, and willing to shed His blood once for all. This message reminds us that while the Old Covenant covered sin temporarily, Jesus' blood removes it eternally. We are redeemed, accepted, and victorious because the blood still speaks.

Pastor Dave calls us back to the heart of worship: humble, grateful, and reverent before the majesty of a holy God.Whether you're leading others or simply seeking to grow deeper in your personal worship, this message will realign your heart and renew your wonder.

Have you ever carried the heavy burden of unforgiveness, feeling trapped by the offenses of others? In this powerful sermon, Pastor Dave dives deep into the biblical story of Joseph—a man who endured betrayal, slavery, and imprisonment yet emerged victorious because of how he chose to handle his offenses. Pastor Dave emphasizes that unforgiveness is not just about others; it's a condition that affects our own spirit, hindering us from stepping into the full potential God has for our lives. With dynamic energy, Pastor Dave encourages the congregation to recognize their own need for forgiveness and healing, reminding them that even in moments of offense, God is orchestrating a path toward their ultimate destiny. Using vivid examples from Joseph's life and the principle of laying aside grudges, Pastor Dave reveals how true freedom comes when we let go—saying, “release it.” This message invites you to examine the relationships in your life and challenges you to embrace a posture of forgiveness, ushering in God's favor. Are you ready to break free from the chains of bitterness? Don't miss the chance to experience a transformation; listen to the full sermon and discover the keys to unlocking your destiny!Genesis 45:3-4 3 Then Joseph said to his brothers, “I am Joseph; does my father still live?” But his brothers could not answer him, for they were dismayed in his presence. 4 And Joseph said to his brothers, “Please come near to me.” So they came near. Then he said: “I am Joseph your brother, whom you sold into Egypt.14 Then he fell on his brother Benjamin's neck and wept, and Benjamin wept on his neck. 15 Moreover he kissed all his brothers and wept over them, and after that his brothers talked with him.5 But now, do not therefore be grieved or angry with yourselves because you sold me here; for God sent me before you to preserve life.7 And God sent me before you to preserve a posterity for you in the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance. 8 So now it was not you who sent me here, but God; and He has made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and a ruler throughout all the land of Egypt.Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.

What if God is inviting you to a feast—and you're too distracted to show up? In this message, we unpack Jesus' parable of the Great Banquet, exposing the subtle lies that keep us from saying “yes” to God's best. Whether it's the pressure to perform, the illusion of self-sufficiency, or the belief that our mess disqualifies us, this story invites us to lay it all down and come to the table. It's not about what you bring, it's about who's inviting you. Come discover why God's invitation is better than your best life.

Pastor Dave and SAM Michelle discuss the importance of setting aside time and, occasionally, adding spiritual practices to help center ourselves on God.

Pastor Dave's Sermon from 7/6/25:  "The Rhythm of the Church: Seasons and Colors and Changes: Advent & Lent" Scripture Reading: Hebrews 10: 14-25

The reality is that none of us can go back in time BUT from Paul's example we can be ready for the next God-given opportunity and share the good news of the Gospel, boldly/confidently with wisdom and love.

What does it really mean to be a Baptist, and why does it matter?In this powerful message from our Divine Blueprint series, we explore the distinct convictions that have historically defined Baptist churches, convictions rooted not in tradition, but in Scripture. From biblical authority and believer's baptism to congregational governance and religious liberty, we walk through the B.A.P.T.I.S.T.S. acronym to show how each core belief shapes the way we “do church” today.With historical stories like that of Fritz Erbe, insights from Baptist leaders like Spurgeon, and a clear comparison of church structures and ordinances, this sermon is both a theological deep dive and a practical challenge to live with conviction in today's culture.Whether you're a lifelong Baptist, new to church, or just exploring what makes different denominations unique—this message will equip you to think biblically, live faithfully, and commit meaningfully to the local church.July 6, 2025

This summer we begin a sermon series “At The Movies” as Pastor Dave uses movie clips to help illustrate spiritual truths.Connect with us:YouTube | youtube.com/@reachchurchworldInstagram | https://www.instagram.com/reachchurch.worldFacebook | https://www.instagram.com/reachchurch.world/#X | @Reach_ChurchMobile App | Reach Church NCWebsite | https://reachchurch.world

Pastor Dave teaches from the book of Hosea; a prophet who was obedient in living out this visual of God's mercy and love for His people, through his marriage to Gomer. We are encouraged throughout the message that the "story isn't over". The Lord is redeeming His people and calling us back to Him through His love and grace that leads us to repentance and receving the gift of mercy, bestowed upon us through Jesus Christ our Savior.

Have you ever wondered, "What's my role in the church?" In a world that often feels divided, Pastor Dave shares a powerful message about the unique gift each generation brings and how we all fit together. From his own experience as a new dad to the timeless wisdom of biblical figures like Paul and Timothy, this sermon explores what it means to be truly available to God and to each other. You'll discover that the Church is at its best when every generation works together—sharing wisdom, speaking life, and leading with love. This message will challenge you to move beyond the sidelines and use your voice to impact the people around you, no matter your age or where you are in your journey.

In today's message from Malachi 2:10–16 and 3:16–18, we see how Judah's broken marriages—marked by unfaithfulness, selfish ambition, and betrayal—had shattered their witness to the nations and ruptured their covenant with God. Instead of showcasing the beauty of life with Yahweh, their divorces and faithlessness displayed contempt for God's name and defiled His purpose for marriage. Yet through the promise of the Book of Remembrance and the coming Redeemer, God holds out hope—not only to restore broken marriages, but to restore His covenant with His people through Christ. Jesus, the true Bridegroom, comes not to condemn but to refine and redeem: to melt anger, heal wounds, and birth new covenant love where human love has failed.

The Lord's Prayer - Pt. 4 Pastor Dave Matthew 6:9-15

Getting My ACTs Together Pt. 10Was God in favor of the American Revolution? How are we to think about history and politics? Pastor Dave addresses these issues and more as he preaches from Boston, Massachusetts.

In this message, we explore the powerful story of Deborah—a prophetess, a judge, and a mother in Israel—who used her God-given influence to lead a nation to victory. You'll hear how one woman's faith and courage stirred others to action and how you can use your influence, no matter your role or title, to glorify God and serve others. From the battlefield to the dinner table, our circles of influence are bigger than we think. Are you using yours for the Kingdom?

(Malachi 1:1-2, 6-8) When you withhold your best from God, it is never just about money or offerings—it is a test of your trust in His love. The people of Malachi's day lived in disappointment and scarcity, doubting God's care, which led them to offer blemished sacrifices and guarded hearts. Their actions declared: “God isn't worth my best, and I have to take care of myself.” But the heart of worship is not about surplus—it's about faith. God's unchanging love, proven supremely at the cross, calls us to trust Him even when resources feel thin. True sacrifice flows from being convinced again of the Father's abundant love. Bring your best—not because you must, but because you know His heart is more than enough.

Welcome to the Harvest Bible Chapel podcast, where we open God's Word together and grow as disciples of Jesus. This weekend, we're continuing our journey through the Book of Acts in Acts 22:30–23:30—a passage full of tension, trials, and God's sovereign care. The Apostle Paul finds himself in yet another unjust situation, and yet what we see is deeply encouraging. In this message, we'll explore three powerful truths: We're called to act uprightly, even when life feels downright unfair. The Lord never leaves His people—He encourages those He calls, just as Jesus promised in Matthew 28. And in the middle of everyday moments, God's providence is always at work. Let's listen in, and be reminded that no matter what we face, our God is near, in control, and always faithful. This podcast is a production of Harvest Bible Chapel in Chicago.

In this eye-opening message, we expose five subtle lies we often believe about rest, productivity, and identity that quietly erode our souls and keep us from receiving the gift of Sabbath. Based on Jesus' parable in Luke 14, this episode invites us to slow down, lay down pride and performance, and embrace a rhythm of replenishment that aligns with God's heart. Whether you're stuck in hustle mode, struggling to find peace, or simply feeling worn out, this message offers truth, challenge, and hope. Sabbath isn't a luxury—it's a lifeline.

“The same man we saw at the pulpit was the same man we saw at home.”-Dave Stone on his father Sam. On this special Fathers Day week special, former Southeast Christian pastor Dave Stone talks about his father Sam's legacy, and how it affects him and the rest of the Stone family. (This is a repeat episode - enjoy!)

(Habakkuk) There are moments when God feels wrong—when His silence pierces, His timing confuses, and His ways seem unbearable. Like Habakkuk, we cry out not just in confusion but in what feels like betrayal: "How could You?" But God invites us into the tension—not to suppress it, but to bring it honestly before Him. The answer isn't always clarity or resolution. The answer is learning to live by faith: to wait on His timing and to anchor our hope in His unchanging character. Even when the fig tree doesn't blossom and every security fails, we can still find strength in the God who makes our feet sure in the chaos.

Life rarely turns out the way we envision—and when our dreams unravel, what do we do next? In this powerful message, Pastor Dave takes us through the story of Ruth and Naomi to show how God redeems brokenness and transforms pain into purpose. Discover how to cultivate a shareable faith, trust God through rejection, and live out His will daily—even when the path looks nothing like you expected. This is a message of encouragement for anyone walking through disappointment, bitterness, or transition. Listen in and be reminded: your scars don't disqualify you—God can use them to shape your destiny.

What if it took a near-death experience to wake you up to God's calling on your life?   In this powerful episode of The Super Human Life, Pastor Dave Scarlett shares the radical moment that shattered his corporate identity and launched him into a global mission to bring faith and freedom to a billion souls. But this conversation isn't just about Pastor Dave's story—it's about what God is calling YOU to do.   We unpack the real meaning of faith in a world full of noise, why tradition isn't enough, and how the enemy uses comfort, technology, and confusion to keep men spiritually dead. Pastor Dave also shares hard-earned wisdom on marriage, forgiveness, and finding divine purpose—even if you're stuck in a corporate grind.   If you've ever questioned your faith, felt spiritually dry, or wondered if God still speaks—this conversation will ignite something inside of you.   This isn't religion. This is war. And it's time to suit up.
