"I have to talk to you guys today about something I don't want to talk to you about."
In this sobering and soul-searching message, Pastor Karl dives deep into Matthew 5:17–48, where Jesus declares that He came not to abolish the Law but to fulfill it—and then raises the bar of righteousness far beyond anything the scribes and Pharisees ever imagined.Through six piercing examples—anger that murders the heart, lust that commits adultery in the mind, casual divorce, manipulative oaths, retaliation, and hatred disguised as justice—Jesus exposes the truth we all try to avoid: outward obedience is never enough. God judges the heart. Every single one of us stands guilty before His perfect standard.Yet the bad news is meant to drive us to the best news. Pastor Karl powerfully unpacks how Jesus' command in verse 48—“You therefore must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect”—is not a cruel impossible demand, but the very reason the Son of God came. We cannot achieve the righteousness God requires, so God freely gives it to us through faith in Christ. Jesus took our unrighteousness and imputes His perfect righteousness to all who repent and trust Him.A hard-hitting, heart-exposing sermon that leaves no room for self-righteousness, but ends with the liberating joy of the gospel: guilty sinners can be clothed in the very righteousness of God and stand before Him as if we had never sinned.

The modern love economy turns seduction into calculus. Beats that once celebrated devotion now sound like quarterly reports scored by 808s. GloRilla's defiance, Nicki Minaj's audit of desire, Lil Kim's monetized mantra—each line announces a shift from victimhood to strategy. Yet beneath the glitter hides an inversion of the oldest script: men no longer appear as sole hunters. Women fluent in the dialect of scarcity sometimes pursue wounded men as capital—resources measured in status, income, or insecurity.

But more importantly, we highlight the freedom found in living God’s way.

Alpha Hour Exhortation - Episode 1113
Most of us don't want to be told what to do, especially about personal matters like sexuality. Dr. John Neufeld examines 1 Corinthians 5:1-5, where Paul addresses a shocking case of sexual immorality that even pagan culture condemned. The church's failure to act wasn't just tolerance; it was arrogance about their own spirituality. Dr. Neufeld challenges believers to understand that God calls the church to be radically counter-cultural in sexual ethics, holding one another accountable rather than ignoring sin while condemning the world.The Gospel Alternative to the Cultures of Men: Being a Christian inevitably puts you in conflict with culture. In this three-week series, Dr. John Neufeld examines 1 Corinthians 5-7 to explore how the gospel creates a distinct counter-culture in the church. Addressing sexual purity, church discipline, and Christian identity, Dr. Neufeld challenges believers to live faithfully in a broken world—not by condemning culture, but by demonstrating Christ's transforming power through humble accountability, moral courage, and authentic community that offers hope to a watching world.
If a man wants to be married but is too young to pursue it, how can he keep his desires in the right place? Pastor John offers five weapons for the fight.

Sadly, many of us wear masks around other Christians—even around the unsaved. At church we look (and sound) like good, Bible-believing, God-fearing, faith-walking Christians. Yet when around non-Christians, we secure our masks in place, pretending to be something we're not so that we can fit right in with our current surroundings.

Sexual addiction silently destroys lives, marriages, and families while those struggling often feel hopelessly trapped in cycles of shame. In this powerful conversation, Steve Coppi and Corey Neal share their journey from decades of sexual shame to newfound freedom through honesty, accountability and a personal relationship with Jesus.Steve reveals how his 45-year battle with pornography addiction began at age 12 and continued until he was 57. Rock bottom came when suicidal thoughts and unbearable hypocrisy drove him to make a desperate call to Corey. That single phone call began a transformation process when Corey responded not with judgment but with compassionate understanding: "That's not the worst I've heard before. You're going to be all right."The conversation dives deep into how true accountability operates—not as behavior policing but as a confessional space where men can finally bring their darkest struggles into the light. Drawing from James 5:16, “Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective". They emphasize that confession to trusted brothers provides the pathway to healing that so many desperately seek.What sets this episode apart is the practical roadmap they offer for those currently struggling. They share how recovery begins with breaking denial, surrendering to a process, and participating in specialized groups where men find the tools, community, and biblical guidance necessary for lasting freedom. They emphasize that while the journey isn't easy, it leads to a life they never thought possible—marriages in restoration and reconnection with children.For leaders and those wanting to help others, Steve and Corey announce their upcoming Men of Valor Conference on October 10-11, 2025 in Santa Rosa Beach FL, designed to equip people with the tools and understanding to effectively support those battling sexual addiction.Ready to break free from sexual bondage or help someone who is? This episode provides both the hope and practical guidance needed to begin that journey today. The path to freedom starts with one honest conversation—just like the one that changed Steve's life forever.For anyone struggling in this area contact Cory Neal at 850-368-3250 and Steve Coppi at 678-457-6471.

What did Yeshua mean when he said looking at a woman with lustful intent is adultery in the heart? Was he setting an impossible standard—or affirming the Tenth Commandment against coveting? This powerful teaching explores Matthew 5:27–30 with Torah context and clarity, addressing the heart behind sexual sin. In this teaching, we unpack Yeshua's words in Matthew 5 about lustful intent. Many have interpreted this passage as setting an unattainable moral bar—but does that reflect what the Torah and Yeshua actually say? By examining the language of coveting in Exodus 20, the grammar of Matthew, and related Scripture from James and Genesis, we see that Yeshua is affirming an existing commandment, not raising the bar to impossible heights. This message also speaks clearly to the issues of pornography, inner desires, and modern application—calling believers to redirect their hearts and intentions toward righteousness. Spiritual Takeaway - Yeshua isn't condemning desire itself—he's calling us to align our hearts with Torah, refusing to covet what is forbidden and walking in holiness by the Spirit.
You can take refuge in your relationship with God because right here and right now He IS your stronghold. A stronghold is a place of safety and refuge, a strong and impenetrable fortress.

Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - Matthew 9:32-38 - A demoniac who could not speak was brought to Jesus, and when the demon was driven out the mute man spoke. The crowds were amazed and said, “Nothing like this has ever been seen in Israel.” But the Pharisees said, “He drives out demons by the prince of demons.” Jesus went around to all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the Gospel of the Kingdom, and curing every disease and illness. At the sight of the crowds, His Heart was moved with pity for them because they were troubled and abandoned, like sheep without a shepherd. Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest is abundant but the laborers are few; so ask the master of the harvest to send out laborers for his harvest.” Bishop Sheen quote of the day 2, 3, 4) Dann Aungst, Founder and President of Road to Purity
