Many Christians like the abundant life, but cringe when suffering comes. Paul refused to boast of his strengths and instead gloried in his weaknesses.

Empires rise and fall, but the dream of uniting the world never seems to die. Nebuchadnezzar's dream of iron mixed with clay foretells a union that never fully holds.

Comfortable believers rarely prepare for the cost of following Christ. Paul answered his critics not with credentials but with a catalog of beatings and shipwrecks.

Dr. Bartholomew Orr, Senior Pastor of Brown Missionary Baptist Church, and Synnamon Taylor, Associate Director of Adult Education and Coordinator of the Contending for the Faith Conference discuss this year's theme, “Just Do It! — John 2:5,” the power of simple obedience, what it truly means to contend for the faith, and what believers can expect at Contending for the Faith November 3–5, 2026 at Brown Missionary Baptist Church South Campus — Southaven, MS. Registration is open at thecontendingconference.com. The question is simple: When God speaks, will you do it?

There was never a more unlikely convert to the Christian faith. Saul was intent on capturing and killing as many believers as possible. In this message, Pastor Lutzer explains how God initiates salvation and shatters self-confidence. Paul was not looking for Jesus; the hunter became the hunted.

What fuels true repentance? This week in our ROMANS series, our Senior Pastor, Miles Fidell, reveals that beneath our sin is a broken relationship with God—and true repentance is fueled not by fear of judgment, but by awe of His kindness.

We can be sincerely devout and dead wrong. On a road to Damascus, a violent religious man met a blinding light. In this message, Pastor Lutzer traces Paul's journey from darkness into the light. Even the apparently "good" are sinful, and all of us are in need of a Savior. This month's special offer is available for a donation of any amount.

Send us Fan MailTHE HEART GOD CHOOSESAfter God's Own Heart | Part 1Senior Pastor Keith StewartSeptember 27, 2026 This Sunday, we begin a new series on one of the most fascinating, celebrated—and complicated—people in the Bible: David. He was a shepherd, warrior, poet, king, worshiper and giant-slayer. But he was also deeply flawed. He made terrible decisions, hurt people he loved, failed spectacularly and lived with the consequences. And yet, remarkably, David is the one person Scripture describes as “a man after God's own heart.” How can that be? Maybe we've misunderstood what God is looking for. We tend to evaluate people from the outside in—appearance, accomplishments, credentials, success. But when God chose David, He made something unmistakably clear: “People look at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.” —1 Samuel 16:7If you've ever wondered whether your failures, weaknesses, background or imperfections could keep God from using your life, I hope you'll join us. Because David's story reminds us that God has always done extraordinary things through remarkably ordinary—and imperfect—people.DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1. Read 1 Samuel 16:6–13. Samuel initially assumed Eliab must be God's choice because of what he saw on the outside. What are some of the outward qualities our culture tends to associate with significance, leadership, or success? How can Christians fall into the same trap? 2. David was overlooked even by his own father, yet God saw something in him that others did not. Have there been seasons when you felt overlooked, undervalued, or forgotten? How might knowing that God sees differently change the way we experience those seasons? 3. The message describes David as having “a heart like a shepherd.” Much of his character was developed while doing an ordinary, largely unnoticed job. What might God be developing in us through responsibilities that seem insignificant or unimportant? 4. One of the sermon's statements is, “Character is always built in faithful obscurity.” Why can obscurity actually be valuable? What becomes dangerous when recognition or opportunity arrives before character has been developed? 5. David and Saul both failed seriously, but the message emphasizes a difference in how they responded when confronted. What is the difference between being sorry about consequences, defending ourselves, and genuinely repenting? Why is defensiveness such an obstacle to spiritual growth? 6. The message says, “Being a sinner is not what disqualifies you from leadership. Pretending that you aren't is what dooms you.” What does healthy ownership of our failures look like? How can a community of grace make honesty and repentance easier rather than harder? 7. David also had “a heart that was centered on God.” The sermon suggests that work, busyness, efficiency, schedules, and even ministry can gradually move into the center of our lives. What tends to compete with God for the center of your life? What practices help you continually re-center yourself on God? 8. The message summarizes the heart God chooses as a heart willing to serve when nobody is watching, a heart capable of breaking when confronted with sin, and a heart that continually re-centers itself on God. Which of those three qualities do you most want God to develop in you right now, and why? 9. David's story reminds us that we are both saints and sinners—people genuinely loved and used by God who remain deeply imperfect. How does that truth challenge either perfectionism on one side or complacency about our failures on the other? 10. The message ends by saying that when David's story is told rightly, we see Jesus—and that God wants Jesus to become visible through our imperfect stories as well. What might it look like for someone to see Jesus through your life, including through the places where you are still unfinished? Closing prayer prompt: Ask God to show you where you are concentrating too much on the outside while He wants to work on the inside, and invite Him to form in you a heart that serves faithfully, repents readily, and continually returns to Him.

This weekend, Rev. Rufus Smith continued our Dear Corinth series with “First and Twenty-First Century Church Etiquette,” focusing on 1 Corinthians 11:3–12. He illustrated how Christian culture operates in tension with society: sometimes church etiquette is intercultural (coinciding with the surrounding world), while at other times it is counter-cultural (directly contradicting the world).

In Episode 243 of Pod Have Mercy, John and Matt sit down with Rev. Magrey deVega, Senior Pastor of Hyde Park United Methodist Church in Tampa, Florida, for a conversation about pastoral ministry, writing, uncertainty, wisdom, preaching, and what it means to pursue holiness in the Wesleyan tradition.Magrey reflects on the unexpected years he spent serving a small church in Cherokee, Iowa, and how that experience helped reconnect him with the heart of pastoral ministry before returning to Hyde Park as Senior Pastor. He also shares how a formative week with Eugene Peterson reshaped the way he thinks about writing, including the important distinction between wanting to be an author and learning to love the craft of writing itself.The conversation explores themes from Magrey's work, including "Embracing the Uncertain" and his forthcoming book "Time for Wisdom." Drawing from Ecclesiastes, Magrey talks about approaching uncertain times with curiosity, humility, and openness rather than certainty and fear. John, Matt, and Magrey also reflect on doubt, deconstruction and reconstruction, and how faith can make room for questions rather than eliminate them.They also discuss the challenge of preaching into a polarized culture, Magrey's recent Faith 250 sermon series, and how pastors can begin difficult conversations from places of shared story and common ground.Later, Magrey introduces the upcoming Lenten study "The Way of Holiness: A Wesleyan Journey through Lent," a collaborative project exploring holiness through the Great Commandment and the Wesleyan understanding of both personal and social holiness. The conversation considers what holiness looks like when it is understood not simply as following rules, but as becoming more fully who God created us to be and growing in love of God, neighbor, and self.Along the way, the conversation touches on hurricane recovery in Tampa, the resilience of communities, poetry, favorite writers, the role of suffering, and a rapid-fire round that gets into everything from Iowa casseroles to biblical characters and the words Magrey hopes to hear when he meets God.Learn more about Rev.
