In the final message of our "Practical Atheist" sermon series, Rev. Terence Gray explores the concept of forgiveness in a culture driven by vengeance, sparked by Kanye West's claims of divinity and self-protection. This discussion centers on the topic, "I believe in God, but I still carry a grudge," examining the spiritual impact of vengeance and the Biblical mandate that it belongs to God. Pastor Terence delves into how grudges elevate oneself falsely and the unhealthy dynamics of cancel culture. Through Biblical narratives and modern examples, learn how true forgiveness can transform personal and societal relationships.

In the continuation of our 'Practical Atheist" sermon series, Rev. Terence Gray refutes the idea that God is indifferent to our happiness, asserting instead that God deeply cares about our joy, found through Him. He debunks the myths separating happiness from holiness and joy from happiness, underlining that they coexist in our pursuit of God. Pastor Terence advises us to actively nurture a joyful heart by aligning with God and cautions against the worldly chase for pleasure. He advocates for maintaining our hearts with diligence, filling them with positive, faith-driven content. We're called to step out from life's 'circus' and prioritize nurturing our 'garden'—our heart—beginning with surrendering it to Jesus. His message closes with a prayer for recognizing God's work in our lives and rediscovering joy in His presence.

In the second message in the "Practical Atheist" sermon series, Mark Ordus confronts the disconnect between professed belief and actual practice in Christianity regarding sexuality. Using Samson's downfall as a cautionary tale, he warns against the gradual steps away from God's guidance. Mark encourages believers to examine their lives for subtle compromises and to embrace God's perfect plan, which offers fulfillment and protection from the pitfalls of temptation. He advocates for a relationship with Christ as the path to a life that is truly abundant and aligned with God's best for us.

That man was not alone.    “For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.”  - Romans 8:5 (KJV)

Dr. Scott McKee's sermon begins the "Practical Atheist" sermon series, confronting the gap between belief in God and truly knowing Him. He likens our relationship with God to personal relationships, stressing the difference between knowing about God and experiencing a profound connection. He shares Apostle Paul's transformation from religious fervor to a life valuing intimate knowledge of Christ above all. The message challenges us to examine our own faith, encouraging a move from superficial belief to a deep, actionable faith that permeates our lives, transforming belief into experience and knowledge into relationship.

Welcome to G220 Radio! In this episode, we talk with author Phillip Duttry about his book Practical Atheist: One Man's Journey from Punk to Pastor. He held to the assurance of "once saved, always saved," as he turned to drugs and alcohol to cope with the struggles of life. Though professing Christ, the life he lived reflected a man who denied Christ's authority over his life. In Practical Atheist, Phill uses his life experience and the path that he took to examine the dangers of easy-believism in the Church and the importance of having a solid grasp on the implications of one's theology.

Title: 4 Ways Not to Live Like a Practical AtheistSpeaker: Matt KehlerText: Psalm 14

From the title we know that David is the writer of this Psalm. The dedication to the Chief Musician stands at the head of fifty-three of the Psalms, and clearly indicates that such psalms were intended, not merely for the private use of believers, but to be sung in the great assemblies by the appointed choir director. Not only did the ancient Church chant hallowed doctrine and offer prayer amid her spiritual songs, but even the wailing notes of complaint were put into her mouth by the sweet singer of Israel who was inspired of God. According to Paul instructions to the church in Colossians 3:16, we are to, “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.” This is not so much a “praise” Psalm as it is a song to be sung to teach and admonish us to not go down the path of becoming a “Practical Atheist”. “The fool has said in his heart, "There is no God." Did you notice that the fool does not say out loud that there is no God. He says it in his heart, in his mind. In other words, he denies the existence of God so he can do what he wants to do and never have to give an account before a holy God one day in judgment. The real reason that a person claims there is no God is not because of a problem with their intellect or reasoning ability as they are surrounded by evidence of a Creator God, but because of the “filthiness and corruption of their own heart and their abominable deeds”. Years ago, I heard someone say that “A person's theology will be determined by their morality.” These verses seem to bear witness to the truth of that statement. Our English word "fool" comes from a Latin word that means "bellows," suggesting that the fool is a person "full of hot air." In the Hebrew language, there are three basic words for "fool": kesyl, the dull, stupid fool; ewiyl, the unreasonable and perverted fool; and nabal, the brutish person who is like a stubborn animal. Nabal is the word used here in 14:1. Remember it was the name of a man who was brutish and refused to help David (1 Sam. 25). Nabal fools are self-righteous and don't need or want God. They want to live their own lives the way they please. Their problem is willful ignorance and not lack of normal intelligence (2 Peter 3:5; Rom. 1:18-28). But this decision causes sad consequences in both their character and their conduct. By leaving God out of their lives, they cause their inner person to become more and more corrupt. The Hebrew word “corrupt” means "rotten, putrid, decayed." When God looks down to investigate (Gen. 6:5, 11-12; 11:15; 18:21), He sees people who are filthy (v. 3), a word that describes milk that has become rancid. "Gone aside" means they have turned their backs on God (Jer. 2:21) and refuse to fulfill the purpose for which they were created—to glorify God. This indictment is universal: all people, individually or all together, cannot do anything at all that is good enough to merit heaven—"no one, no, not one”. Paul quotes from this passage in Romans 3 as part of his proof that the whole world is guilty before God and can be saved only by the grace of God as revealed in Jesus Christ (Rom. 3:9-26). Human depravity doesn't mean that all persons are as wicked as they can be, or that all are equally bad, or that no man or woman can ever do anything good (Luke 11:13). It simply means that all have a fallen nature they cannot change, and that apart from the grace of God, none can be saved from eternal judgment. Despite the foolish and corrupt character and nature of people and leaders around us, we should remember that one day God will restore the fortunes of His people and we should rejoice and be glad (v. 7)! God bless!

We are in the midst of a series called "Practical Atheist." Every week we explore what it means to "believe in God." If we believe in God, we should know Him, love Him, follow Him and trust Him. We don't want you to just know about Jesus. We want you to have a deep and meaningful relationship with the only One who can save us.
