In this powerful sermon from Redeemer Church in Midland, Texas, the pastor explores Acts 10:1-33, where God orchestrates a divine encounter between the apostle Peter and Cornelius, a devout Roman centurion. Through visions—an angel to Cornelius and a sheet of unclean animals to Peter—God reveals that the gospel is for everyone, breaking down barriers between Jews and Gentiles, declaring that what God has made clean should not be called common. This pivotal moment marks the explosive spread of the gospel to all nations, emphasizing that every person is unclean due to sin but can be truly cleansed only through faith in Jesus Christ.

If you're a regular listener, you know that we typically feature conversations with parents who have experienced the loss of a child on this podcast.  However, when a good friend posted a link to this sermon on Romans 8:28 in our private “While We're Waiting – Support for Bereaved Parents” Facebook group a couple weeks ago, I knew it was something I wanted to share with you.  Kirk Miller is the speaker, and he is a member of Redeemer Church in Huntsville, Alabama.  He's a former pastor and church planter and now is editor of digital content at Logos where he edits and writes for Word by Word.  I wanted to share this because I know what a complicated relationship many bereaved parents have with Romans 8:28!  This often is the first verse that those who are trying to help a grieving parent will quote.  Kirk acknowledges how this verse, offered too quickly, can feel less like a lifeline and more like a slap in the face—rushing sufferers toward a silver lining, dismissing real pain, or subtly implying that ongoing grief is a failure of faith.  In this episode, Kirk will offer six clarifications on what this this scripture means – and does not mean – for those who are suffering.  I pray that this sermon both enlightens and encourages you, just like it did for me.  While we're waiting to see our children again, may the Lord hold you close and strengthen your heart.Click HERE to watch this sermon on YouTube.  I would love to hear your thoughts on the show.

In this powerful sermon from Redeemer Church in Midland, Texas, Pastor Josh Gatewood highlights in Act 9:32-43 how Jesus consistently calls, heals, and uses people whom society overlooks, doubts, or disqualifies. Throughout Scripture, Jesus moves toward the unlikely—sinners, outsiders, the broken, and the ordinary—not because of their qualifications, but because of His grace and purpose. God's kingdom advances not through human strength or status, but through surrendered hearts willing to respond in faith. The message encourages listeners to see themselves through Jesus' eyes rather than their past, failures, or labels. No one is too far gone, too weak, or too insignificant for God to use. When Jesus calls, He doesn't wait for perfection—He invites obedience, and He does the transforming work along the way.

The message contrasts Saul (later Paul) the persecutor turned apostle, ordinary disciple Philip, and Simon the sorcerer who sought the Holy Spirit's power for personal gain rather than true surrender to Jesus, highlighting how the gospel unites diverse people, exposes false spirituality, and calls believers to love enemies, proclaim Christ amid opposition, and prioritize the person of Jesus over mere power.

For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. Which of you, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!— Matthew 7:7-11 (Luke 11:9-13)3 Reasons for Unanswered Prayers:Not “no” but “not yet”Complex GoodsEvil ExistsGod does not delay to give what he has promised; rather, by delaying he stretches desire. By stretching desire he enlarges the soul. By enlarging the soul he makes it capable of receiving what he is preparing to give.— AugustineGod always gives us just what we need, himself.  He even works to stretch our hearts so that we are able to receive what he gives.Safety and security are two idols we let go unchecked in the American church.“Safe? ... Who said anything about safe? 'Course he isn't safe. But he's good. He's the King, I tell you”— C.S.

Teach Us To PrayFebruary 01, 2026Teacher: Pastor Dave BrownSince I myself have carefully investigated everything from the beginning, I too decided to write an orderly account for you, most excellent Theophilus.— Luke 1:3As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha opened her home to him. She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord's feet listening to what he said. But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to him and asked, “Lord, don't you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!” “Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, but few things are needed—or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.”— Luke 10:38-42The Good Samaritan shows us what love does.Mary reminds us where love begins.Prayer teaches us how to stay there.“Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.”— Luke 11:1One day Jesus was praying in a certain place.  When he finished, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.”— Luke 11:1“When you pray, say: Father…”— Luke 11:2Prayer is about presence before it's about anything else.  Prayer doesn't begin with outcomes.  Prayer is the free choice to be with the Father, to prefer his company.  In our desire for certain outcomes or our confusion over not getting certain outcomes, we are tempted to begin there.  But we cannot brush past simply being with the Father and arrive at anything close to the sort of prayer Jesus won back for us.  Prayer starts with presence.— Tyler StatonGracious Father,you are the God of peace,the sovereign King who gathers one Kingdom from many nationsand calls us to belong wholly to you and to one another;Teach us to be with you before we strive to do for you.Quiet our anxious hearts,loosen our grip on lesser allegiances,and form in us the mind of Christ.Where opinions differ, give us charity.Where fears rise, give us trust.Where we are tempted to divide, make us one.As we seek the future of Redeemer Church,guide us by your Spirit.Grant us wisdom in discernment,patience with one another,and courage to follow wherever you lead. Make us a praying people before we are a decisive people,that our life together may reflect the peace and unity of your Kingdom.Through Jesus Christ our Lord,who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,one God, now and forever.Amen.

In this Christmas sermon from Redeemer Church in Midland, Texas, Pastor Jason Hatch explores Luke 2, revealing how humanity's deepest longing for joy—often chased in money, relationships, work, or substances—can only be truly fulfilled in Jesus Christ, the ultimate gift who restores our relationship with God and provides indestructible joy beneath all circumstances. The angelic announcement to the shepherds declares good news of great joy for all people, not bad news or mere advice, but the arrival of a Savior who offers grace to everyone, no matter their past. This message reminds us that Christmas is God's mission to smuggle infinite joy into a broken world through the humble birth of Jesus.   Website: redeemermidland.org Instagram: instagram.com/redeemermidland Facebook: facebook.com/RedeemerMidland   At Redeemer, we seek to be a Gospel-Centered, Missional Family.

In this first sermon of the "True and Better" series from Redeemer Church in Midland, Texas, Pastor Josh Gatewood explores how Jesus fulfills Old Testament typology as our true and better Adam, drawing from Romans 5:12-21 to contrast the reign of sin and death through Adam with the abundant grace and righteousness available through Christ. Delving into the realities of original sin and its ongoing effects—like disobedience, blame, and hiding from God—the message highlights the good news of imputed righteousness, where believers are treated as if they lived Jesus' perfect life.

The flexibility of their work has allowed them to be a dedicated community organizer: distributing medical supplies and meals to working class comrades and unhoused neighbors.

Pastor Tim Keller is a Presbyterian legend. Redeemer Church, which he planted in Manhattan, became a model for dozens of churches across the US and the globe. His sermons, lectures, interviews, and books presented a provocative and winsome gospel to today's cultured skeptics. Even during his lifetime, Keller was a flashpoint, and the debate over his work and legacy has continued since his death in 2023. To many, he is a stalwart hero; to others, his effort to be winsome left him defenseless against the aggressive progressivism of the early twenty-first century. On October 17, 2025, the Theopolis Institute and Immanuel Reformed Church co-hosted a conversation on Keller's life and legacy between James Wood, author of the widely-discussed essay, "How I Evolved on Tim Keller," and Collin Hansen, author of the intellectual biography, Tim Keller: His Spiritual and Intellectual Formation. Peter Leithart, President of Theopolis, moderated the discussion. James Wood is an Associate Professor of Religion and Theology at Redeemer University in Hamilton, Ontario. Collin Hansen is Vice President for content at The Gospel Coalition and Executive Director of the Keller Center for Cultural Apologetics.

Elbert “Pastor El” was born and raised in Jackson, MS. After graduating with a Mechanical Engineering degree from Alabama A&M, he worked for General Electric in Ohio. Having seen drugs devastate his family in Jackson, Elbert later witnessed God bring healing and transformation through the gospel, which led to his own conversion while reading the Bible in his apartment. His passion for sharing Christ grew into prison ministry, and after marrying his wife, Karen, he returned to Jackson to attend Reformed Theological Seminary. While serving at Redeemer Church, he helped launch Reformed University Fellowship at Jackson State University and in 2015 was called as Redeemer's Senior Pastor. Elbert and Karen have two children, Karis and Tripp, and remain devoted to Jackson, its people, and God's work of making broken things new.   Sermon recorded October 19, 2025 Rev.
