This sermon explores Jesus's high priestly prayer in John 17:11-16, focusing on Christ's intercession for His disciples and all future believers. The central theological truth presented is that genuine Christians are eternally kept, protected, and preserved by God's power rather than their own strength. Pastor Joe Fant addresses the common Christian struggle of wondering whether one has enough strength to finish the race of faith, providing assurance that perseverance is guaranteed through divine protection rather than human effort. The sermon emphasizes three areas of protection: from destruction (eternal judgment), from purposelessness (living with Christ's joy), and from the judgment that comes from being in a hostile world. Using the imagery of God holding believers rather than believers holding onto God, the message brings comfort to those experiencing doubt, suffering, or spiritual weariness by anchoring their security in God's sovereign keeping power. Key Points: Believers are kept and preserved by God's power, not by their own strength or ability to hold on to faith Jesus prayed specifically that His disciples would be kept in the Father's name, establishing a relationship of divine protection Christians are protected from three primary threats: destruction, purposelessness, and divine judgment The case of Judas demonstrates that true apostasy occurs only because someone was never genuinely saved, not because God's power was insufficient God's sovereignty means that all evil is "on God's leash" and can only extend as far as He permits Believers possess Christ's own joy, which comes from relationship with the Father rather than circumstances Christians remain "in the world" but are "not of the world," protected while living among spiritual darkness The forces of darkness must go through Christ before reaching believers, as they are hidden in God's hand Perseverance in faith is guaranteed for the genuinely saved because of divine protection, not human effort Scripture Reference: John 17:11-16 (primary passage) 1 John 3:19-20 (reassurance when hearts condemn) Philippians 1:6 (God completing His work) Luke 22:31-32 (Jesus praying for Peter) John 6:64-65 (Jesus knowing who would betray Him) Psalm 41:9 and Psalm 109 (prophecies fulfilled in Judas) Romans 14:17 (kingdom characterized by joy) Nehemiah 8:10 (joy of the Lord as strength) Psalm 16:11 (fullness of joy in God's presence) Romans 8:1 (no condemnation in Christ) 2 Kings 6 (Elisha and Gehazi seeing angelic protection)

In this podcast, Pastor Justin preaches into how God wants to empower us and supercharge our lives beyond what we could imagine. Support the show

The Power Of God To Save

October 22, 2025We reflected deeply on John chapter 8, focusing on Jesus' divine authority, His interaction with the woman caught in adultery, and His declaration as the light of the world. The discussion centered on how Jesus revealed His identity gradually and how the Pharisees' rejection reflected hardened hearts despite their knowledge of His divine origin.We explored the believer's authority in Christ, emphasizing that true authority flows from intimacy with the Word of God and the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit. The call was clear—to study and hide the Word in our hearts so we can speak and act with divine guidance.The conversation turned to God's love and forgiveness, as we considered Jesus' response to sin—not condemnation, but grace. We reflected on daily experiences where God's presence and love are evident, from small interactions to moments of service, and how these reflect His character in us.The meeting also examined spiritual growth through the lens of humility, brokenness, and gratitude—recognizing that God fills empty vessels and works through weakness, not pride. We closed with encouragement to keep our focus on Christ's perspective, overcome pride through gratitude, and rest in the Spirit's continual guidance toward holiness and service.Themes:Jesus' divine authority and identity in John 8Grace over condemnation: the woman caught in adulteryThe believer's authority through Christ and the WordGod's patience, kindness, and daily presenceThe Holy Spirit's role in guidance and revelationSpiritual humility and brokenness as vessels for God's useOvercoming pride through gratitude and Christ-centered perspectiveThe call to gentle teaching and serviceReflection Question: In moments of failure or pride, do I respond like the Pharisees—defending myself—or like the woman—receiving grace and walking in the light of Christ's forgiveness?

Sermon by Kelly Brady from Romans 9:30-10:4

Acts 13:42-52 We are in the Book of Acts this morning. Acts 13:42-52 which takes place in the Roman city of Antioch in Pisidia. The closing verses of Acts 13 describe two reactions toward a sermon that Paul preached. We find an encouraging reception of God's Word and also fierce opposition. Acts 13:42ff. proves beyond a doubt the Power of God's Word – as it produces two reactions. The Power of God's Word – think of it this way 'One Gospel, Two Reactions' this is what we find in our passage this morning.

If you want to unleash the power of God in every area of your life, it's going to take intentionally putting yourself under His rule.

Jesus sets a clear pattern in His ministry of deeply seeing people. Many of those people are on the margins and are not seen by others. Human tendency is to self-protect with distance and an “eye bounce” that avoids seeing them. In contrast, when Jesus sees someone, His first reaction is to love them. BECAUSE He loves them, He speaks and ACTS in their first, best interest. To follow Jesus in loving and living like He did, our hearts must soften and our agendas must shift from pursuing our needs first to meeting others'.To investigate this most important of stories further, go here.

Pastor Mike teaches how nothing is impossible for the Lord, but it doesn’t manifest by mere “trust in God.” It manifests by knowing what Jesus provided for that area. Audio>

If you have ever wondered why the hands of the priest are consecrated, and why they are subsequently empowered to do the work that God has planned for them, you need only to look to the Book of Exodus for a clue. But, it also has a direct connection to Jesus asking us to pray without growing weary.

Wednesday, October 15, 2025 07:30PM

Anita Helm broadcast this special episode within a Hospital during a family crisis. She speaks about the obedience of birds in comparison to mankind. This teaching will never let you see bird brain the same way.

In this first of a two-part series on spiritual formation, we're joined by a remarkable couple authors Bill and Kristi Gaultiere with decades of experience in ministry and counseling. As founders of Soul Shepherding, they've dedicated their lives to helping believers take their next steps toward deeper intimacy with Jesus, greater emotional health, and more loving relationships. Together, we dive into the transformative power of empathy—what it is, why it matters, and how it reflects the very heart of God in His interactions with us. We explore why learning self-empathy (which is very different from self-pity) is essential for our own healing and growth, and how developing empathy for others can be the doorway to healthier, stronger relationships. Our conversation also touches on the deeply personal journey of experiencing empathy from Jesus Himself, and what it looks like to open our hearts to that reality in daily life. If you've ever longed for a more compassionate relationship with God, yourself, and others, this episode will encourage and equip you for that journey. Connect with Bill and Kristi Gaultiere at the Soul Shepherding website, Facebook, Instagram, or YouTube.

In this conversation, Felicia explores the profound impact of God's presence in overcoming fear and anxiety. She emphasizes that even in the darkest valleys of life, God's nearness provides comfort, protection, and strength. Through personal testimony, she illustrates how faith and awareness of God's presence can transform our experiences and help us navigate life's challenges. The discussion encourages listeners to recognize that they are never alone and that God's presence is a source of peace and guidance.TakeawaysGod's presence drives out fear and provides light in darkness.Even in the darkest valleys, we do not have to be afraid.God's presence is our protection and comfort.Fear loses its grip when we remember who is with us.The act of walking through fear is a powerful step of faith.God's presence empowers us to keep moving forward.We are not meant to live in the valley; we are passing through it.Personal experiences of God's presence can inspire others.God's presence is often found in quiet moments of stillness.Recognizing God's presence can strengthen our faith.

A sermon by Kelly Brady from Romans 8:31-39

A sermon by Kelly Brady from Romans 8:31-39

If God could transform Jacob the deceiver into Israel the man of God, imagine what He can do with your life.

In this video, we dive into the recent Charlie Kirk Memorial and unpack two very different responses to tragedy. Erika Kirk shared a powerful testimony of God's love and forgiveness, boldly declaring that she forgives the killer. This moment beautifully displayed the heart of the true Gospel of Jesus Christ—a Gospel centered on grace, mercy, and reconciliation.But in contrast, President Donald Trump made comments expressing hatred toward his enemies. While his words resonate with Cultural Christianity and political ideology, they fall short of the radical love Jesus calls His followers to live out. This comparison reveals the stark difference between authentic Christian faith and a cultural, political version of Christianity that often misses the heart of the message.If you're a new Christian, someone curious about Jesus, or even a skeptic exploring what Christianity is really about, this video will encourage you to see the difference between human anger and divine forgiveness. For believers wanting to strengthen their faith, Erika Kirk's example reminds us that forgiveness is not weakness, but the very evidence of God's Spirit at work in us.Enjoy!Got any questions or topics you'd like to hear about?

Trusting God in our darkest seasons of life and believing He is working all things for good can be a struggle for many of us. However, today's storyteller, Alissa Parrish, from our Montgomery, Alabama community, reminds us that it's during the difficult, the hard, and the waiting that God longs for you to seek His presence, ask for His guidance, and surrender to His will.   While this is a story of loss and grief, it's also one of hope and redemption as Alissa reminds us that God's promises and plans are always bigger than our problems and pain.  ____________________________________________________   VERSE OF THE WEEK: Psalm 130:5: “I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in His Word I put my hope.”   CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK: Are you in a season of waiting, longing for God to answer your prayers more quickly or help you out of a dark season?
