Confusion surrounding the emergence and development of Christianity has fueled a great deal of tension between Jews and Christians in our present time. A deep dive into the book of Acts helps us to fill in the gaps and shed light on the early Christian church which in its genesis was made up of Jewish converts who came to view Christ as the Messiah.

From leaving behind a pagan past to following a God he barely understood, Abraham's journey was filled with mystery, setbacks, and detours—but it changed the world.Pastor Lamb challenges us to abandon our comfortable, predictable Christianity and instead embrace the unpredictable, faith-filled life God calls us to. If you've ever felt stuck, unsure, or too “rational” for radical obedience, this message is for you.This is not a sermon for the faint of heart—this is a call into the unknown.Text: Genesis 12:1–5 | Acts 7:2–5 | Hebrews 11:8–100:00 - Intro: Preaching After Giants0:36 - Why the Unknown Terrifies Us2:33 - Charging Into the Unknown4:35 - Abraham's Comfortable Religion6:40 - When God Interrupts Your Theology8:44 - Can God Wreck Your Plans?10:08 - From Paganism to Calling11:36 - When God Detonates Your Safe Christianity13:29 - The False God of Mammon14:49 - The “Adventure” You Didn't Plan17:03 - Our Predictable, Toothless God20:22 - Stuck in Haran: When You Bring Baggage22:06 - Obedience Delayed = Destiny Delayed23:22 - Marital Chaos in Egypt24:48 - Faith Is Not What You Expected26:27 - You Don't Know God (Really)28:03 - What We Don't Know Exceeds What We Do29:35 - Destiny Isn't About You31:20 - God's Plan: Bigger Than Canaan33:08 - From Abraham to You35:09 - Your Life = Small Dreams or Global Impact?36:11 - Examine Your Faith37:48 - Living the Sermon on the Mount39:31 - Are You a Blessing to the Nations?40:52 - Go and Make Disciples Anyway41:27 - God Lives in the Unknown43:33 - We Haven't Arrived Yet43:37 - Final Challenge: Meet with God
The Resurrection of Jesus Christ is the epicenter of Christianity. Jesus foretold of His Death and Resurrection on the 3rd day. There are internal evidences that the New Testament writers were honest reporters of Christ's scourging and crucifixion, His burial, and His appearances after the Resurrection. Because He is risen, we have the promise of life eternal. VF-2494 Watch, Listen and Learn 24x7 at PastorMelissaScott.com Pastor Melissa Scott teaches from Faith Center in Glendale.

Listen as Pastor Scott Andrews preached from Luke 11:1-4 on Sunday, July 6th, 2025.
Understanding why Jesus had to die has many nuances that can be found throughout the Bible. The consequence for our fallen, sin-stained condition is death, but Jesus died as a substitute sacrifice in our place. We escape the curse of the law through His finished work at the cross and the barrier between us and God is gone. We are still sinners, but those who are in Christ will not receive God's wrath.

In this message, Pastor Scott invites us to dive into the letter of Ephesians, a book that powerfully echoes the teachings found in Acts, speaking from Ephesians 4:20-24. It unpacks Paul's words to the church in Ephesus, challenging believers not just to change their behavior but to surrender their entire identity to God.Salvation is not just a change of heart but also a renewing of the mind. We need to take seriously Paul's call to transformation, reminding us that this new life is only possible through the blood of Jesus and the renewing power of the Holy Spirit.Support the show

In this sermon, based on Luke 10:1-11, 16-20, Pastor Scott explores the story of Jesus sending the 72 out in pairs to share the message about the kingdom of God. This is the assigned gospel text for Sunday July 6th, the 4th Sunday after Pentecost.
This sermon unpacks the powerful account of David and Abigail in 1 Samuel 25. Abigail courageously intervenes in David's path of rage and revenge after an insult from the foolish Nabal. Drawing from his own testimony, Pastor Scott likens Abigail's intervention to a spiritual roadblock—much like the people who stepped into his life to rescue him from destruction. The message challenges listeners to recognize when others are on destructive paths and to be willing, like Abigail, to boldly and lovingly intervene. Her humility, wisdom, and bravery not only save lives but also redirect David back toward God's purposes. We're reminded that while not every intervention succeeds, some do—and they are worth it.

What was life like before sin entered the world? In this message from Genesis 2:4–17, Pastor Scott zooms in on humanity's very first home—the Garden of Eden. We see not only how God gave Adam life and paradise, but also work, boundaries, and most importantly, His Word. This passage gives us a picture of what […]
A careful study of God's covenants shows us that God's chosen people are not limited to one singular group of people called “Jews.” The history of God's chosen people shows us that no one has ever kept His covenant. The only way to keep His covenant is to be covered by the blood of the New Covenant in Christ.

The congressional bill H.R. 6090 references the IHRA definition of anti-Semitism, which alludes to the words of Jesus Christ as anti-Semitic. That is impossible because Jesus was a Jew. He criticized the religious leaders of Israel for their failure to teach and lead the people. They rejected Him because they saw Him as a threat to their power. The church of today needs to speak the truth from the Bible without fear or shame and not be intimidated by critics that haven't read the Bible.

In this week's episode, Pastor Scott, Pastor Eric, and Pastor Rodney discuss the themes from Sunday's sermon on the parable in Luke 12, focusing on the dangers of greed and the importance of being "rich toward God" by wisely managing and giving wealth. They emphasize tithing, financial planning, and the spiritual value of generosity while also offering practical resources for those struggling with financial burdens.
Celebrating 20 years of ministry, this message looks back at a life lived by faith and the making of a child of God. Hebrews 11 memorializes those in the Old Testament that overcame challenges by faith in God. They are to be examples to us to continue in the faith and stay connected to God and His word. Just as God saw the people of the Bible through, so will He see us and this church through.

Pastor Scott's message emphasizes the importance of being spiritually prepared and warns against the dangers of greed, highlighting that true worth is not determined by material possessions but through a relationship with God. By referring to the parable from Luke 12, he encourages us to be rich towards God by placing our faith in Jesus and fostering a deeper spiritual connection.

Our attitude towards money says a lot about who we are and how we will be memorialized by God. On one hand, the Bible is replete with references to greed and greedy people. On the other hand, those who were generous, recognized that they were stewards, and managed the things that God gave them responsibly. This message is a mirror from God's word to help us reflect on how we want to be remembered.

The Passover was instituted in the Old Testament as a remembrance of the deliverance of God's children out of Egypt. It was kept until the last Passover, celebrated by Jesus before His death and resurrection. Then Christ became our Passover through His finished work at the cross. There are no more Passovers to be celebrated. Instead, we go to the Table of the Lord in remembrance of Him and what was accomplished through His blood and the resurrection.

There is no scripture to support the worship of Mary, or the doctrine of the immaculate conception of Mary which paints her as without original sin. So how did the Catholic church manage to convince a whole sea of people that this is the truth? Are Christians just imitating the mother and child worship that is found in every single culture?

A look at church history shows that the date of December 25th came out of pagan traditions that had nothing to do with Christ. The birth of Christ was the fulfillment of a set time. A study of the Old Testament shows there are no feasts or set times that occur in the month of December. In order to fulfill the prophecy of God's set time, Christ had to be born in September. A study of scripture, secular history and astronomical events provide evidence of a September birth and provide a window of time for the year it occurred.

When we examine the biblical and historical data, it's very clear that December 25th is not Christ's birthday. While we're not obliged to give an exact date, we can narrow it down to a window and a time: more likely a September date between 7 and 6 B.C., fitting into the set times of God.

Pastor Scott explores the parable from Matthew 13, highlighting the importance of nurturing our hearts to effectively receive and grow in God's word, and urging the congregation to take responsibility for understanding and applying these teachings in their lives. He also encourages the church community to support and mentor one another in deepening their faith and spiritual roots.
The Gospels of Matthew and Luke provide different details about the birth and early childhood of Christ. By looking to evidence from the Bible and a variety of external sources, we can begin to learn the truth about His birth. The accounts tell us where He was born and if you read carefully, what time of the year it was. Jesus was not born at Christmas and the Magi did not visit Him at birth, but later when He was a young child.
