As General Conference approaches, this episode of Y Religion highlights an inspiring way to enrich your conference experience. Assistant teaching professor Scott L. Howell and project manager of BYU Research Technology Group Lauryn Wilde discuss their research on thousands of general conference footnotes, revealing how these often-overlooked references contain additional doctrinal insights, personal experiences, historical context, and prophetic counsel. Their findings invite listeners to engage more deeply with conference messages and discover how studying beyond the spoken word can strengthen testimony and deepen gospel understanding.

TO THE END OF THE EARTH: A Sermon Series Through the Book of Acts–––––––––––––Jesus called them, taught them, and prepared them. But would the Apostles and the early church be able to continue the work without Him? The Book of Acts tells the story of how the Holy Spirit empowered the church to spread the gospel. Through His power and the faithful obedience of the people, Christianity exploded, spreading from Jerusalem to the end of the earth. Two thousand years later, the mission is still ours. We must continue to proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ to a lost and dying world.

Identification and proclamation for those with credible profession of faith.Christ gave His church two ordinances: baptism and the Lord's Supper. Baptism is the believer's public identification with Christ in His death, burial, and resurrection, and entrance into the community of faith. The Lord's Supper is the ongoing proclamation of that union and the continued fellowship of the redeemed around the finished work of Christ.These ordinances belong to the church, not to individuals or families. They are not means of salvation, nor should they be cheapened by careless administration. Both require a credible profession of faith and careful oversight by the elders who will give an account for the souls under their care. When practiced biblically, baptism and communion powerfully declare the gospel and strengthen the body.Preached by Rodney Brown Jr. at Rhome Bible ChurchWebsite: https://www.rhomebible.org#BibleTeaching #RhomeBibleChurch #Sermon #ChristianPodcast #BiblicalPreaching #GodsSovereignty #Faith #ImpartingTheWord #Reformed #ExpositionalPreaching #ExpositionalTeaching #Baptism #LordsSupper #ChurchOrdinances
Our faith is dependent upon understanding the work of Jesus Christ. In this second message of the “Behold the Lamb” series, we move from the person of Christ (His incarnation) to His work. The key doctrine under consideration is imputation—the great exchange in which our sin is credited to Christ and His perfect righteousness is credited to us. Saving faith rests not merely on sincerity, but on the correct understanding of what Jesus accomplished. Because He is the perfect, spotless Lamb—truly God and truly man—He alone could bear our guilt and provide the righteousness we could never earn. This truth strengthens our faith, fuels our worship, and equips us to speak clearly about the gospel during the Christmas season.

Propitiation is the King satisfying His righteous anger by extending holy love to His children. In this third message of the “Behold the Lamb” series, we turn to another essential aspect of Christ's work on the cross: propitiation. God is perfectly holy and just; He cannot simply overlook sin. Yet in His holy love He desires to redeem a people for Himself. At the cross, justice and mercy meet. Jesus, the perfect Lamb, stands in our place and absorbs the righteous wrath of God that our sins deserve. In doing so, He satisfies divine justice and opens the way for God to extend mercy and affection to former enemies now brought near as His children. Understanding propitiation deepens our worship and strengthens our confidence in the finished work of Christ.

Jesus' resurrection and glorification guarantees ours. In this final message of the “Behold the Lamb” series, we turn to the resurrection and glorification of Christ. Having examined His incarnation, the imputation of His righteousness, and the propitiation of God's wrath, we now see how His victory over death secures our future hope. Because Jesus rose from the dead and is now glorified at the right hand of the Father, every believer can face death with confidence. We do not grieve as those who have no hope. His resurrection guarantees that we too will be raised and glorified. This truth strengthens our faith, fuels our worship, and equips us to speak hope into a world that sanitizes and fears death.

Our faith is dependent upon understanding the person of Jesus Christ. In this message from selected Scriptures, we begin a series focused on the person and work of Christ as we enter the Christmas season. The key question is simple but essential: Who is the baby in the manger? True saving faith rests not merely on sincerity, but on the correct object of that faith. Jesus is fully God and fully man. He is the eternal Word who became flesh, the exact representation of the Father's nature, the Creator and Sustainer who humbled Himself in the incarnation. Without a divine Savior, there is no salvation. This text calls us to understand, confess, and commit ourselves to the biblical Jesus—not a Jesus of our own making—so that our faith is both correct and strengthened.

n a culture that increasingly hates biblical truth, the church cannot remain silent. In this message from selected Scriptures, Pastor Rodney addresses recent acts of violence and the growing hostility toward those who stand for Christ. Drawing from the example of faithful witnesses who refused to stay quiet, he calls believers to reject worldly wisdom, stop making excuses, and rise up to speak the gospel with clarity, courage, and kindness. This is a timely call to make our lives count—not by seeking comfort or avoiding conflict, but by loving people enough to tell them the truth, even when it costs us.
