Maybe it's the control freak in me, or maybe it's the lack of patience… but I have a hard time watching someone do something incorrectly when I know I can help them. Do you? If only they'd stop pushing so many buttons or hold the knife the proper way, all their problems would be solved! In today's message, Pastor Ken teaches that people all around you have issues that you can help with, because you know the solution. You know that Jesus is the solution. So why not help them out?

Do you remember when you first accepted Jesus into your heart? How did your life change? Confessing your sins and accepting Jesus might have been the easy part of being “born again.” The harder part is navigating the life changes that come with following Christ. Some of your long-time friends may not understand how the Holy Spirit is reshaping your heart and desires. Today, Pastor Ken explains how your life transforms when you accept Jesus and what it means to grow in your faith as a believer.

Did you know that as children of God, you're called to live by a specific set of standards? The good news is that these standards are clearly outlined in Scripture, and it just takes obedience and a willing heart to follow them. In today's message, Pastor Ken explores the standards God calls you to live by, and how the foundation for a relationship with God is simple. As Paul writes in Romans, “If you confess Jesus is Lord and believe that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.”

Life isn't always fair! Thankfully, our God is not only fair, He's also merciful. Like a loving Father, God sometimes has to discipline us when we make mistakes. Often, this discipline can take the form of allowing a trial or hardship to continue in our lives. But His goal is always the same: to draw us closer to Him. In today's message, Pastor Ken shares how God sometimes has to work a little harder to get our attention, just like He did with the nation of Israel, which was stubborn and ignored His warnings.

Many of us fall into the trap of searching for meaning and fulfillment in the things of this world. Whether it's a career, money, or fame, these things can easily become idols that pull us further from God. The truth is, real fulfillment only comes from a relationship with God. God isn't looking for us to just “play church,” or go through the motions; He wants a real relationship with us. In today's message, Pastor Ken reminds us that chasing anything other than Jesus will always leave us empty.

Pastor Ken continues teaches topically on Good vs Evil.

Deep down, most of us know right from wrong. But when we make a mistake, we often try to defend our actions or shift the blame to avoid accountability. On the other hand, when others make mistakes, we can be quick to judge and demand justice. Today, Pastor Ken explains what a “justice meter” is and how Jesus has already taken accountability for our sins on the cross. It's a reminder that real freedom comes, not through judgment, but through the mercy and grace we find when we walk closely with God.

Have you ever heard the saying, “One bad apple can spoil the whole bunch?” The same is true for your walk with God. If you're constantly surrounded by people who aren't focused on Him, their influence can change you. Today's culture often pushes you to conform to the world, but as a follower of Jesus, you are called to stand out and lead others to accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior. Today, Pastor Ken explores how bad influences and a love for worldly things can jeopardize your relationship with God.

Just because people know what they're supposed to do doesn't mean they always do it. Just think about the highway, isn't the speed limit posted all up and down along the way? But does that keep people from driving however they want to? In today's message, Pastor Ken teaches you that everyone should know that God exists and that they're accountable to Him, but does that keep them from doing whatever they want? What about you? Are you living your life with a good conscience toward your creator?

Have you ever felt stuck—spiritually dry, emotionally exhausted, or like you're running in circles trying to grow but not seeing any lasting change? In this week's episode of OneChurch Podcast, Pastor Ken Senchal reveals a truth that could unlock your next breakthrough: change doesn't come from trying harder—it comes from staying connected to Christ. Rooted in Ephesians 1 and John 15, this message explores what it really means to live “in Christ”—and why so many believers never experience the fullness of that identity. Pastor Ken also shares how spiritual disciplines like daily prayer aren't religious rituals—they're lifelines that keep us aligned with God's voice and power.

Everyone's got a marketing strategy today. Whether you're a fast food chain, a realtor, or you run a carwash, you want people to buy what you're selling, and so you've got to pull out all the stops to get their attention and win their business. In today's message, Pastor Ken shares with you the importance of letting the Word of God speak for itself. You don't need a slick marketing scheme. You're not looking to sell anything. God's Word is effective when you just allow God to speak for Himself.

Pastor Ken teaches through Ezekiel 38-39

We, the people, oftentimes want to blame leadership when things go wrong, but are we completely without fault? You hear all the time, “Did you see what so-and-so did? Can you believe the audacity?” But are we all that better in our own sphere of responsibility? In our responsibility towards God? In his message today, Pastor Ken challenges you to look in your own heart before pointing the finger at leadership. Are you walking with the same level of integrity that you expect from them? 

Pastor Ken teaches topically on current events.

Pastor Ken discusses the theme of hope in the face of life's challenges, emphasizing that it's common to feel hopeless due to various circumstances. He references the biblical figure Habakkuk, who questioned God's fairness amid suffering, reflecting our own struggles with doubt and understanding. The sermon highlights that hope is a tangible lifeline we can cling to during difficult times, and that wrestling with God through our questions is a vital part of faith. Ultimately, Pastor Ken encourages us to embrace both our doubts and our faith, reminding us that even when life is tough, God remains in control and offers us hope for the future.___________________________________________El Pastor Ken discute el tema de la esperanza frente a los desafíos de la vida, enfatizando que es común sentirse sin esperanza debido a varias circunstancias. Hace referencia a la figura bíblica de Habacuc, quien cuestionó la justicia de Dios en medio del sufrimiento, reflejando nuestras propias luchas con la duda y la comprensión. El sermón destaca que la esperanza es un salvavidas tangible al que podemos aferrarnos durante tiempos difíciles, y que luchar con Dios a través de nuestras preguntas es una parte vital de la fe. En última instancia, el Pastor Ken nos anima a abrazar tanto nuestras dudas como nuestra fe, recordándonos que incluso cuando la vida es difícil, Dios sigue en control y nos ofrece esperanza para el futuro.

Listen to this from Hosea: “For the LORD has a case against the inhabitants of the land, Because there is no faithfulness or kindness Or knowledge of God in the land. There is swearing, deception, murder, stealing, and adultery. They employ violence, so that bloodshed follows bloodshed.” It's uncanny how much the sins of the world today are like those that we read of in Israel in the book of Hosea. Today, Pastor Ken urges you to look to Jesus, because He's the only hope you have of escaping this sinful world.

When anyone takes the stand in court, they're required to swear an oath to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth… Unfortunately, even at that, too many people still try to find a way around actually telling the truth. In today's message, Pastor Ken warns you about the sin of taking false oaths. The nation of Israel was guilty of this during Hosea's time, and you're not immune to it today. It's a matter of the heart; Do you have the integrity in your heart to always speak what's true?

We oftentimes think of sin as something we do, but sin is also when we don't do something that we ought to do. Think about it for a second, if there's a stop sign at an intersection, and you just keep on driving, then isn't that still breaking the law? It wasn't an action you took, it was the action that you didn't take. In his message today, Pastor Ken shares with you that, as James puts it, “He who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.” Is there anything in your life that you've been leaving undone?

Following Jesus is the beginning — not the end — of the journey. In this episode, Pastor Ken invites us into a deeper walk of faith, where change is not only expected, but necessary. Through scripture, real-life examples, and deep spiritual insight, discover: What it means to live fully in Christ How to stay connected when life feels disconnected The truth about spiritual growth, pruning, and submission Whether you're just beginning your walk or feeling spiritually stuck, this message will help you re-align your life with God's best for you.

There's a lot of joy that comes when someone chooses to follow Jesus with their whole lives, but also, those people are extremely susceptible to believing things others say quickly. In today's message, Pastor Ken says being a new believer is great, but you also must be careful, so you don't follow false doctrine. You must read scripture to know what's true from what's not. Jesus wants you to follow Him and know Him so you can have an abundant life through the death and resurrection of His Son. 

Pastor Ken teaches through Revelation chapter 7

Forgiveness is a hard thing to do. We often want to keep our grudge and control the situation. When you truly forgive someone, you allow God to step in and mend a broken relationship. Today, Pastor Ken says that sometimes when you forgive, you must choose to forgive someone daily. It's a lot easier to hold a grudge, but God wants you to forgive because Christ forgave you. Despite your shortcomings, Jesus chose to forgive, so you should too. Forgive others as Christ forgave you.

Pastor Ken continues teaching through the book of Leviticus.

In this sermon, we explore Acts 8 and the transformative power of mission work and persecution in spreading the Gospel. Pastor Ken shares personal anecdotes from mission trips, emphasizing that every believer is called to be a missionary, regardless of their perceived level of spiritual maturity. The sermon highlights how God uses persecution to expand the church and challenges listeners to step out of their comfort zones to share the Gospel. Through the story of Philip's mission to Samaria and his encounter with the Ethiopian eunuch, we learn that the Gospel is for everyone and that every disciple is called to preach and bring joy to their communities. The message encourages believers to see every aspect of their lives as an opportunity to share the love of Christ and to overcome any barriers that prevent them from doing so.

The Unstoppable Plan of God - Ezra 6:13-22, Pastor Ken Ingram

When a child is adopted, it's the choice of the family that adopts them to accept them into their family. In today's message, Pastor Ken says the story of Hosea is an example of how Jesus adopts us into His family. He chose you. Jesus wants to be with you in eternity. All you must do is choose to follow Him and let Him lead your life. Have you chosen to follow Jesus? If you haven't, there's no better time than right now. He's seeking you and wants to give you every opportunity to follow Him. Trust Jesus today!

One of the most common things we do as Christians is minimize our sin and try to make ourselves seem better than we are. Today, Pastor Ken says God doesn't ignore our sin but has given us a way to be forgiven. He sent His Son as a sacrifice for all the wrongs you've done and are going to do. Jesus came so you can have a relationship with the Father. He loves you and wants you to trust in Him daily. Follow God wholeheartedly and live in the freedom He's already given you. Find satisfaction in His love!

We're living in a time when anxiety is at an all-time high, and people are trying to find solutions to it. In today's message, Pastor Ken says God can give you peace amidst not knowing what's coming next in your life. You must trust Him and allow Him to cover you with peace beyond all understanding. God loves you and wants you to have your hope rooted solely in Him. Even in the anxious times, trust that God has a plan for you and is constantly working things out for your benefit and your good.

When we're born, we're instantly surrounded by brokenness because this world is full of sin. Today, Pastor Ken says we can only overcome the world through Christ. When Christ becomes all we know and see, we're freed from the things that enslave us. Sin's rampant in the world, but God has given you the power to say no to sin and yes to victory through the death and resurrection of Christ. He loves you so much that He sent His Son as a ransom for all sins committed in the past, present, and future.

Pastor Ken continues teaching through the book of Leviticus.

Today, Pastor Ken will explain that there is overwhelming evidence for the existence of Jesus, both in secular and biblical history. The greatest evidence that Jesus did exist is the fact that literally thousands of Christians in the first century AD, including the twelve apostles, were willing to give their lives as martyrs for Jesus Christ. People will die for what they believe to be true, but no one will die for what they know to be a lie. Remember, if Christ was not raised from the dead, believers will not be either.

Pastor Ken completes the 2nd chapter of Acts

Today, Pastor Ken will remind you that God is the Designer and Craftsman of everything in the universe, and He created human beings a step above all the rest. By breathing His own life into that man, He created the man and woman “in His own image”. That means that human beings are more like God than any other created thing. We have an eternal spirit, just as God has. The wise person bows before the Creator and willingly submits himself or herself to the only One who truly knows how we are made. 

Hosea's wife, Gomer, practiced unfaithfulness as a lifestyle. When she conceived and bore children, God told Hosea to give them prophetic names symbolizing the Lord's judgment on Israel. For example, Jezreel foretold a great massacre that would happen in that valley, and Lo-Ammi means “not my people,” signaling God's rejection of Israel. Hosea warned of painful consequences, invasion, and slavery. Today, Pastor Ken will explain that Hosea's message was clear—sin brings judgment! 

Pastor Ken begins teaching through Revelation 5

Conflict in Israel has been a reality whenever Israel has existed as a nation. Whether it was the Egyptians, Babylonians, Persians, or Romans, the nation of Israel has always been persecuted by its neighbors. Why is this? According to the Bible, it is because God has a special plan for the nation of Israel, and Satan wants to defeat that plan. Today, Pastor Ken will explain that satanically influenced hatred of Israel is the reason Israel's neighbors have always wanted to see Israel destroyed.

Luke 23:32-38 - In this message from Luke 23, Pastor Ken reflects on the crucifixion of Jesus, emphasizing how Jesus chose to die between two criminals, identifying with sinners even in death. Despite being mocked, beaten, and humiliated, Jesus extended mercy—praying for forgiveness for those who crucified Him.

Pastor Ken continues teaching through the book of Acts.

There is a battle going on at all times for the souls of people. Satan is the enemy that we're at war with. He is trying to lead people into darkness, and they are following Him blindly. Today, Pastor Ken will encourage you to be engaged in the battle. There are people being led astray. You have the truth that can lead them back to the light. Think of yourself like a soldier on a mission from God, because that's what you are. You're on a rescue mission. Get engaged in the battle for people's souls.

Do you have peace? Not just a surface-level absence of hecticness in your life, but do you have peace in the biblical sense? Do you have shalom? In today's message, Pastor Ken will explain how shalom encompasses so much. When you accept Jesus in your life, He has made peace with you. When you were broken and lost in your sin, He made a way to be reconciled to Him. Even when life seems to be unsettled and difficult, you have eternal peace because of the hope you have in Jesus.
