Pastor Ken continues teaching through the book of Revelation.

Pastor Ken continues teaching through the book of Leviticus.

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.

Pastor Ken continues teaching through the book of Leviticus.

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.

We often want to fit God inside a box, don't we? Maybe it's that we think we can understand or even control Him that way, but God doesn't fit in our boxes. We try to keep God in the box of a Sunday morning in our church building. In his message today, Pastor Ken will challenge you to accept that God is so much bigger than Sunday morning. God doesn't just exist when you go to church, and your worship of Him shouldn't exist only on Sunday mornings. Worship God everywhere and every day.

Our world has tried to paint religion, and especially Christianity, as antiquated and primitive. If you're enlightened and educated, you're expected to write off the mystical, supernatural elements of religion. But, as Pastor Ken will point out in today's message, a worldview without the supernatural disregards centuries of human thought, experience, and historical evidence. This world, with all of its complexities and inexplicable circumstances and events, needs a Creator and Deity to make any sense.

Have you ever imagined what it would've been like to have been born into royalty? We tend to look at the children of royalty as spoiled and rotten, which is often accurate, but it comes out of a sense of unfairness and jealousy. Well, as Pastor Ken will point out in today's message, when you're born again through Jesus, you become the son or daughter of spiritual royalty. With this status, we don't need to see ourselves as entitled, but we can have confidence that our Father will support and provide for us. 

Anyone who has not received Jesus as Lord and Savior of their life will face His judgment. Pastor Ken warns in today's message that today is the day for salvation. Tomorrow is never guaranteed to anyone. There is eternal separation from God on the line. Pastor Ken urges you to surrender your life to Jesus today. All you must do to receive salvation is confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe it in your heart. By doing this, you receive eternal life with the Heavenly Father and salvation for your soul!

Pray God's promises and His Word back to Him! As you learn today from Pastor Ken's message, God is always receptive to you reminding Him of what He has said in His Word. Maybe there are specific promises in your life that you have been believing and hoping for. Pastor Ken encourages you to bring them to the Lord in prayer. Remind God of the promises that He has made to you. Remind Him of His faithfulness through reciting His Word to Him. Be bold in coming to the throne room of God. He cares for you!

Pastor Ken continues teaching through the book of Revelation.

Do you have a person or a group of people that you would like to see God's judgment come upon? In today's message from Pastor Ken, he can relate to the feeling, especially when you feel like the people deserve it. However, what if instead of praying for God's judgment, you would pray for their salvation, for a softened heart, and a changed mind? Pastor Ken encourages you that as a follower of Jesus, mercy always triumphs over judgment. God wants to see all of those who are lost come to Him in faith.

Pastor Ken continues teaching through the book of Leviticus.

It's important to recount how the Lord has shown Himself faithful to you! Today, you learn from Pastor Ken's message that the more you express your gratitude to Jesus through prayer, the more you realize all that He has done for you! Pastor Ken emphasizes the point that Jesus loves you so much that He was willing to die a criminal's death on the cross for you. When you take the time to reflect upon that, you see just how much Jesus has sacrificed for you. Express to Him your gratitude through prayer.

Pastor Ken teaches through Acts chapter 1

It's by GRACE you have been saved through FAITH. In today's message from Pastor Ken, he assures you that no good effort and deeds can earn you the right to stand before a just and righteous God. Only receiving Jesus by grace and by believing in Him as Lord and Savior will grant you access to the Heavenly Father. Pastor Ken expresses the hope that you have when you place your trust in Jesus. You have eternal life with Him to look forward to. But for those who have not received Christ, where is their hope?

You have an eternal advocate, and His name is Jesus! As you listen to today's message from Pastor Ken, he shares with you that when you have placed your faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, He is forever standing as your advocate. Pastor Ken explains that the enemy comes to steal, kill, destroy, and condemn. But Jesus is at the Father's right hand and is constantly interceding for you. You are clothed in His righteousness. When the Father looks at you, He sees His Son.

When someone is servant-hearted, the question they always ask is “How can I help?” In today's message, Pastor Ken says we must ask that when thinking of the Lord. How can you serve the Lord better? It's not a question that's often asked or even often thought of, but if you're a believer of Christ, you must ask yourself, How do I serve the Lord better? He deserves all your praise and all your offerings. When you trust Him and serve Him, He's able to do far more with your life than you could ever imagine. Follow Him, and trust that He's got your back.

Pastor Ken teaches through Revelation 3

Wherever God is, we can feel safe. In today's message, Pastor Ken says, wherever God is, His staff is. His staff is a reference to divine beings. God's always watching us and protecting us. Even when we fall, we can have hope in the gospel. He sent His Son to die for our sins so we can have eternal life through Him. Trust in God today. He wants to have a relationship with you and wants you to know that He's always by your side. You don't have to worry about anything because in all things, God's got your back.

Pastor Ken teaches through Leviticus 20-22

For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. What an incredible promise that is! Today, Pastor Ken says we're so precious that He gave His Son for us! How awesome is that! You have value. In fact, you have so much value in God's eyes that He sent His Son for you! God's love covers all. Even when you choose the things of this world, you'll have hope in His Son. Jesus paid the debt you deserved. Trust in Him today!

There's nothing more powerful than God's power in our lives. With just one word, He can change everything. Today, Pastor Ken says God can make salvation happen when we ask. The Bible says ask, and you'll receive. This doesn't mean you'll get everything you ever wanted with the Lord, but what this does mean is that if it's in God's will, it'll be done. God loves you so much that He sent His Son as the ultimate sacrifice for your sins. How awesome is it that His love is so vast that it covers a multitude of sins?

The world around us is corrupt. Every day, there's something new in the news reports that makes us understand that we're broken, sinful people in need of a savior. Today, Pastor Ken says God is just. We can trust Him because He's just. Trusting in the Lord allows you to have hope in Him. He's the hope this world needs. No politics or greater authorities will give you the hope that's found in Christ. The crazy thing is that being a Christian feels unjust. How could God send down His Son for a sinner like you when you did nothing to deserve it? The answer is because He loves you.

Pastor Ken Senchal closes out our series The Week That Changed Everything with a powerful Easter Sunday message that takes us from the cross to the empty tomb—and into the heart of God's redemptive plan for humanity. Drawing from Luke 23–24 and Colossians 2, Pastor Ken explores: What it means to be spiritually dead How sin infects and deceives The freedom found in Christ's sacrifice The resurrection power available to you today This message isn't just about Easter—it's about you. Whether you're wrestling with regret, shame, or a need for renewal, there's hope here. You can be made alive in Christ.

When you root for a sports team, you want to see them win, you want to see them thrive. In today's message, Pastor Ken says when you're a believer, you must root for God's side. Your heart posture should be to live for Christ because you want to see Him win. When you live for Christ, others have the opportunity to follow because they have an example of who Christ is, through you! Following Jesus means being on His side, which means you'll hate the things He hates, but love the things He loves.

It's easy to get stuck in a rut of feeling sorry for ourselves, isn't it? The best way to get out of that rut is to stop focusing on ourselves and turn our eyes to Jesus. Worshipping Him is the answer. In today's message, Pastor Ken will encourage you to join with the church in worshiping God. Worship isn't about what you get out of it. Worship is all about surrendering and blessing God. However, you'll be blessed as a byproduct. Stop throwing yourself a pity party. Turn your eyes to Jesus and give Him praise.

Each year, Pastor Ken takes time to re-address some foundational Christian beliefs. We need to revisit the basics so that we have a firm doctrinal foundation on which to stand. So we're taking a 3-week break from 1 Peter to present this short series entitled "Here We Stand."

Pastor Ken teaches on the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Jesus really does emphasize humility a lot, doesn't he? Humility isn't putting on a show of seeing ourselves as less than we think we are. It's seeing ourselves accurately. We can't do life alone. We need Jesus. In his message today, Pastor Ken will challenge you to realize your poverty. You are poor in spirit. If you've come to a place where you see that you have nothing to give on your own, that your strength isn't going to be enough, then you're in the right place. You can come to Jesus in humility, and He will lift you up.

Have you ever tried to put together a puzzle without a picture of what it's supposed to look like? It might be possible with a simple puzzle but not with a really complex one. That's what it was like for the disciples to try to understand everything from the Old Testament and how it pointed to Jesus. In today's message, Pastor Ken will point out that it's easy for you to think the disciples were silly for not understanding things. You see the whole picture, and they needed Jesus to explain it to them.

Isn't how God works so great? He loves turning things upside down or turning things right side up. God calls us to battle our enemies with love. In the same way, His vengeance on the past enemies of Israel will be to turn them into friends. In his message today, Pastor Ken will remind you that the ways of God are not our ways. His ways are greater. Have you ever tried to make an enemy your friend? It's not easy to answer insults and hate with love, but God calls you to bring His right side up Kingdom here to earth.

Doesn't the Kingdom of Jesus sound wonderful? When Jesus returns and reigns over earth, it's pretty amazing to imagine. What kind of King will Jesus be? A perfect one. We know that. In today's message, Pastor Ken will teach about what will happen when Jesus comes again. There will be peace over all the earth. Things like cancer and terminal illnesses will be no more. The whole world will be a Kingdom of abundant joy and serenity. Jesus will indeed be the greatest, perfect King of all time.

Pastor Ken teaches from Luke 15.

Isn't it amazing what God has done for us? We belong to Him. We don't have to be slaves to the world and sin. Our whole identity changed when we accepted Jesus. It's not like we just sprinkled some Jesus on top of the sundae. In his message today, Pastor Ken will remind you that you went from being a slave to being a child of God. You are a chosen heir in His kingdom. That is a change that runs deep into who you are. Let the truth of being God's child impact how you live today.
