Surveys indicate Christianity in America is on the grow. The surveys also indicate the growth is occurring among Gen-Z. So then, where is this spiritual growth actually occurring? For sure, it is not happening among the old, staid denominations where the church, for the most part, continues to be traditional, ritual, predictable, and in the words of one, boring. Renewal and revival of Christianity in America is coming primarily from non-denominational churches and spirit-filled Pentecostal movements. Those growth churches are offering experiential expressions of faith, real Biblical experiences different from and better than the traditional American protestant denominations. At one time, non-denominational Christian churches consisted of approximately 5% of American protestants (1972). Today, those growing non-denominational churches comprise of roughly 30% of all such protestant churches. Why is such growth occurring, wondered the pundits and especially the non-believers. The answer is simple. Those churches function under the direction and influence of the Holy Spirit where the real, vital, saving, forgiving Gospel of Jesus Christ is believed and preached. Pentecostal churches are growing. The Assemblies of God, among the many spirit-filled churches reported growth in: 1. CHURCH SERVICE ATTENDANCE 2. NEW MEMBERSHIP 3. CONVERSIONS AND SAVING EXPERIENCES 4. BAPTISMS 5. THE BUILDING OF NEW CHURCHES So many people, including the young from Gen-Z, want the real Christianity or nothing at all. Spirit-filled Pentecostal movements offer Christian reality, even as so many churches in denominations turn woke, liberal, social, even political in emphasis and so often replace the Gospel with social agendas. The church should be where the real Gospel is preached, where real spirit-led worship occurs, and where the soul is satisfied and blessed. Holiness and Pentecostal churches reported at least 4% growth in all the above categories, and these non-denominational churches far outperformed the old-line denominational churches. These non-denominational churches are “functionally charismatic” even if they do not describe themselves as Pentecostal. They do not belong to Assemblies of God or THE CHURCH OF GOD IN CHRIST, or foursquare, but their worship styles and theology clearly emphasize expressive worship, spiritual gifts, and direct encounters with God. The real Gospel, the Holy-Spirit-led worship characterizes the beliefs and the worship services of these growing non-denominational Christian churches. In years past, surveys indicate the younger generations (Gen-Z and more) were indifferent and turned off by Christianity and Christian worship. This may have been the case, but then came the growth of these non-denominational, spirit-filled, spiritually-experiential Christian churches, and therefore membership and involvement dramatically increased. The surveys indicate this younger, non-denominational church-goer and worshipper was significantly more diverse than many of the membership in the historic and traditional protestant denomination. These surveys indicated only 60% of the new non-denominational church worshippers where white. Many of the new worshippers were Hispanic, African American, or even Asian. This new spirit-filled church was truly the right example of diversity in race and ethnicity, equity and equality among all men and women in worship, and the inclusion of all (DEI) in worship led by the Holy Spirit, belief in and the preaching of the real Gospel, and where the Bible ruled. People today are hungry for the real Gospel, the real worship experience, for real Bible teaching. The real Gospel would have us as believers rejoice, be glad, be happy, be exuberant in our faith. The real Gospel, as Jesus said, would have us live life abundantly, emotionally, lovingly. These spirit-filled non-denominational churches offer this spiritual reality and more. The growth in non-denominational churches was incredible. In 2010, there were some 35,000 such churches and congregations. Today, there are 44,000 non-denominational church congregations in America, with an estimated 21 million members and worshipers. 21 MILLION soul-satisfied congregants and adherents. PRAISE THE LORD! Churches exist for one reason only: to proclaim Biblical truth, the real Gospel, the salvation experience, the forgiveness and reconciliation to God the Father, and to worship, all of which allow for direct encounters with the very God and the Son, Jesus Christ. These churches offer this and everything real in Scripture, which is why they are growing, and the growth has only just begun. PRAISE THE LORD!

I cannot believe that I am sitting here in my office doing this Pastor's Chat after the back surgery yesterday that we had. It was a day of miracles. We live in an amazing day. I am so grateful and thankful, and I believe all that happened because of prayer—pure prayer. We do not take anything for granted. We could have the best health system and the best of everything, but unless God helps us, takes care of us, and we trust Him, it is really all in vain. So Praise the Lord and Thank You… Thank you…Thank you for your prayers!!!!!!Now let us go on here for these last couple of minutes to our passage in Philippians that we were talking about yesterday. We are looking at verses 2 and 3 where Paul said: “Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself. Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others.”We have already been talking in this chapter about having the right motives for spiritual unity. Remember, the right motives have to do with the fact that since we have consolation in Christ, since we have comfort in Christ, we have fellowship of the Spirit, and since we have love in Christ. Since we have them, and since Christ has been our all in all, therefore we should continue to have the right marks for spiritual unity. (Philippians 2:1-2)Those right marks include having the same love, being of one accord, and of one mind. This will lay the foundation for right means in our service to the Lord. Paul gives the negative first which is: “nothing is done through selfish ambition, but in lowliness of mind, and esteeming others better than ourselves”. God help us to remember that we need the right motives. We need these right spiritual marks and the right means. They bring about spiritual unity in our families and in our church.Then Paul writes: “Let nothing—let nothing—be done through selfish ambition and conceit.” We talked about what that meant, but I want to finish with this thought. Paul's command is strong when he says this. “Let nothing.” Not just let anything, or let some things, or even most things—but nothing—be done through vainglory and selfish motives. Even good ideas and sincere convictions must not be pushed forward with selfish motives.For a example, I was thinking about how we might go to a business meeting at church to vote on whether we should change the Wednesday night prayer meeting to Thursday night. Now, I do not ever remember having to vote on things like that, but some churches do. You sit there and say, “Oh wow, that is awesome. All my social activities and athletic activities for my kids are on Wednesday night. I am voting to move it to Thursday night.” Then another member shows up and says, “Oh man, I hate this. No, I am voting to keep it on Wednesday night because I am already committed to all these things on Thursday night in my social life.” We go to the meeting to vote based on what we want and what best benefits us. I'll never forget the great pastor of yesteryear Adrian Rogers saying, “That is not the way it works. We all should go to the meeting thinking, “What does Christ want for our church? He is the Head of our church. What does He want?” And then vote accordingly!When we have unity of mind and unity of spirit, when we have the consolation of love, we have the right motives. We are not being selfish. And you know what happens? We do what Christ wants us to do, and we vote the way Christ wants us to vote. Then we become part of His ministry and a church full of joy, happiness, and comfort with one another. And a great witness to the community and world around us!I trust that you have been blessed by these verses and that you continue to be encouraged to do nothing this way—nothing in the way of conceit, nothing done through selfish ambition. God help us.God bless and may you have a wonderful, wonderful day!

Opening and Gratitude The speaker thanks Shiana, the leadership team, and Maureen Morris for hospitality and event preparation. She praises the team's hard work and the welcoming atmosphere of the conference. She introduces the message as something personally meaningful and emotionally stirring. Main Scripture and Theme The message is based on Genesis 29 and Leah's story. The speaker's title is framed two ways: “Now I will praise the Lord” and “This time I will praise the Lord”. The central theme is that praise can emerge from pain, rejection, and invisibility. Jacob, Rachel, and Leah Jacob travels to find a wife and falls in love with Rachel at the well. He works seven years for Rachel, but Laban deceives him and gives him Leah instead. Jacob is furious because he wanted Rachel, not Leah, which highlights Leah's unloved and hidden position. Leah's Pain Leah is described as weak-eyed, overlooked, and culturally less valued than Rachel. She is trapped in a painful marriage where she is not loved. Her longing for love is shown through the names she gives her sons. Leah's Sons and Meaning Reuben: “The Lord has seen my affliction,” hoping her husband will love her. Simeon: “The Lord has heard that I am unloved,” showing she feels heard. Levi: “Now my husband will become attached to me,” revealing her hope for connection. Judah: “Now I will praise the Lord,” marking a turning point from pain to praise. Idols and Misplaced Hope The speaker warns that good things can become idols when they matter more than God. Leah's babies become a way of trying to earn her husband's love, rather than simply gifts from God. The message broadens this warning to include money, sex, success, beauty, relationships, and children. Rejection and Identity The speaker connects Leah's story to modern feelings of rejection, invisibility, insecurity, and anxiety. She argues that rejection by people can be redirection by God. She encourages listeners to stop chasing world standards and instead embrace God's standards. Personal Testimony The speaker shares her own story of adoption, deep feelings of not being wanted, and healing from rejection. She explains that God helped her understand she was always wanted by Him. She shares how God used her experiences and redirection to shape her life and ministry. David as Parallel Example David is used as another example of rejection leading to God's plan. He is sent back from battle, finds his camp destroyed, and is told by God to pursue and recover all. This story reinforces the idea that rejection can position someone for restoration. Worship and Response The speaker urges the audience to bring pain, tears, and burdens to God at the altar. She emphasizes that worship is not performance but a genuine act of surrender and praise. She encourages women to praise God in the middle of battle, not just after it ends. Final Call Leah's decision to praise God is presented as the moment everything changes. The message ends with a call for the women to stand, worship, and let praise birth something new in their lives. The closing emphasis is that God inhabits praise and can bring freedom, healing, and breakthrough.

Women's Bible Study

At our Interactive Midweek Service, Pastor Femi Paul brought us a corrective and stirring word titled Praise the Lord O' My Soul! Building on Sunday's message Count Your Blessings, he opened with Psalm 103:2 and expanding through Isaiah 55:2, we were reminded that counting our blessings is not merely a gratitude exercise, it is spiritual wisdom. From Numbers 11:1a, Pastor emphasised that complaining isn't just a bad habit; it displeases the Lord and stalls our progress. We learned that counting our blessings is actually a spiritual guard that protects our Counting our blessings guards the heart against grumbling and complaining, and keeps us qualified for what God is about to do next. We also saw how complaint can distort perspective, while thanksgiving preserves spiritual posture and keeps our heart open to God's next move. The core of the message was a deep dive into Philippians 4:8, where we were challenged to discipline our thoughts toward what is good, worthy of praise, and full of God's goodness. We were challenged to fill our minds with things to praise rather than things to curse, and to fasten our thoughts on the glorious works of God. As the congregation lifted the song Praise, the atmosphere reinforced the message that praise is not only a response to blessing but a posture that sustains joy, protects perspective, and aligns us with divine harmony. The charge was simple and profound: keep counting your blessings, keep praising God, and stay qualified for what He is about to do next. Confession: Lord, I choose praise over complaint and gratitude over grumbling. Guard my heart, align my thoughts, and keep me positioned for all You are about to do next.

The Book of Psalms Psalm 113 Psalm 113 calls us to praise God not as a reaction to good circumstances, but as a response to His unchanging worth. Because God is exalted above all yet stoops to lift the lowly, praise becomes both our calling and our lifeline in every season of life. When we choose to praise—even in suffering—God uses it to reorient our hearts and awaken our joy in Him.

Send us Fan MailSome days call for more than optimism. They call for moxie, the kind of courage that keeps moving when the plan falls apart, the money feels tight, the diagnosis lands, or the future turns foggy. We're chasing a simple but difficult practice: praising the Lord in every circumstance, not as a performance, but as a decision rooted in who God is. We share an honest story from our early days planting a church in France, when leadership changes and financial pressure forced a fork in the road. Do we stay because God called us, or leave because others left? That moment opens a bigger conversation about perspective, “first world problems,” and the very real weight many people carry, then brings it back to a steady refrain: the Lord be praised. From there we dig into Scripture with Moses and Joshua, focusing on identity in God, God's presence, and the repeated promise “I will not leave you or forsake you.” We walk through Joshua's call to be strong and courageous and the battle of Jericho, where worship and obedience become the strategy, not human strength. If you're facing a wall that won't move, you'll hear practical faith for today: stop feeding fear, refuse complaint, follow God's presence, and let worship do its work. If this encouraged you, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs courage, and leave a review so more people can find the message.

Psalm 150 closes the Psalms with a joyful crescendo of worship, and in this episode of Arise+Abide, Curtis and Sally reflect on the beauty of wholehearted praise. Drawing from the psalm's vivid imagery of ram's horns, harps, tambourines, strings, flutes, and crashing cymbals, they explore what it means to praise God with everything we have and everything we do. The conversation moves beyond music into the posture of the heart: worship as surrender, gratitude, and a turning away from self-promotion. Curtis reflects on how every talent, skill, and daily task can become an offering of praise to God, while Sally highlights the psalm's rising sense of celebration—a gathering call that builds into awe at God's "unequaled greatness." Together, they connect Psalm 150 to Colossians 3, the parable of the hidden treasure, and Isaiah 45, showing how the greatness of God makes every earthly achievement fade in comparison. This episode is a beautiful invitation to re-center your heart, lay down lesser crowns, and join the symphony of all creation in giving glory to the One who alone is worthy.

He is RISEN! Praise The Lord! But... What difference has this truth and historical fact made in your life and mine? Oh what a shame when we know a truth, but fail to see and experience the power of The Risen Christ. This Sunday I want to get past the women who ran to the tomb, the disciples who were hiding in fear, and I want to bring The Risen Saviour to you, and let His nail scared hands be a witness to our blind eyes that will free us to run this race with endurance, throwing away every sin that so easy entangles as we fix our eyes on The Risen Jesus.

10 lepers were cleansed, only one turned back to give God the glory and thank Him. Don't forget, all good comes from God, the Father of Lights. He says call on Him, and He will save you AND He expects you to give Him the glory He is due.

DATE:  Sunday, March 29, 2026 TEXT:  Psalm 148 SPEAKER:  Pastor Marshall Nessa

In this episode of Arise + Abide, Sally and Curtis reflect on Psalm 148, a powerful call for all creation to praise the Lord. From the heights of heaven to the depths of the earth, the psalm invites angels, stars, mountains, animals, rulers, and people of every generation to lift their voices in worship. Together they explore the structure of the psalm and the reasons it gives for praise: God is the Creator of all things, the One whose commands brought the world into being and whose authority extends over wind, weather, and all creation. They also discuss the unique nature of God compared to the false gods of the nations and the promise found in drawing near to Him. The conversation turns to what it means for believers today—praising God not only in good circumstances but in every season, remaining close to Him, and finding strength in His presence. As the episode concludes, Sally and Curtis reflect on the invitation God gives His people to draw near and live lives marked by continual praise and gratitude.

No matter the circumstances, God calls us to rise up and praise the Lord. Praise has the power to change the atmosphere, strengthen our faith, and remind us that God is still working in our lives. When we choose to worship Him with all our hearts, we declare that He alone is worthy of all glory, honor, and praise.In this message, you will discover how praise can transform your heart, renew your strength, and draw you closer to the presence of God.Like, share, and subscribe for more messages that will strengthen your faith.

The longest Psalm in the Bible is Psalm 119 with 176 verses and the shortest comes shortly before it with only 2 verses. Psalm 117 is not only short but it calls out to non-Jewish people of that day.

Remember God loves you so much he sent his Son Jesus Christ to take the punishment for your sins. You are of great value. Jesus loves you and He is just a prayer away! 

In this episode of Arise + Abide, Sally and Curtis reflect on Psalm 146, a powerful call to praise and a clear invitation to examine where we place our trust. The psalm contrasts the fragility of human power with the faithfulness of God, reminding us not to put our confidence in people whose plans perish, but in the Lord who reigns forever. As they walk through the text, Sally and Curtis highlight God's character and actions—bringing justice to the oppressed, providing food for the hungry, freeing prisoners, opening the eyes of the blind, lifting the weary, and caring for foreigners, orphans, and widows. They explore how these descriptions are not only reasons for praise, but also a picture of God's heart for inclusion, compassion, and faithfulness across generations. The conversation also connects Psalm 146 with the ministry of Jesus, noting how His life and words echo the same priorities—good news for the poor, freedom for the captive, and hope for those weighed down. Together, they reflect on what it means to live as disciples who trust God above all else, resist misplaced hope in worldly systems or people, and participate in the work that reflects God's kingdom. This episode offers encouragement for anyone feeling burdened, uncertain, or in need of hope, pointing listeners back to the joy found in trusting the Lord, who keeps His promises forever.

Pastor Kenny Kauffman preaches on 1 Timothy 1:12-17.

If our worship comes with a set of stipulations for God, then the reality is that it's not true worship. In fact, total surrender is one of the distinguishing characteristics of the Christian life. This week on The Bible Study Hour, Dr. Boice will remind us that embracing the truth of the Gospel fills us with joy in our salvation. Heartfelt praise is simply the natural overflow of a restored life! To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/81/29?v=20251111
