As family and friends tried to talk him out of doing what was right, he stood firm. Unchanged. Courageous. Ready for whatever laid before him.

A sermon From Pastor Darryl Lovell

Paul defended the grace-alone gospel against false teachers and the affirmation of that gospel by the Jerusalem apostles. Together they show us the need to guard the purity of the gospel, embrace unity for mission, and let the gospel overflow in compassion and care.

Evil Doesn't Knock—It Shatters. Are Your Kids Ready to Stand? Evil doesn’t knock politely—it barrels into our lives, demanding a response. In an era marked by darkness and division, how do we prepare the next generation to stand firm in their faith rather than buckle under pressure? Truth is Targeted In this powerful and timely episode, Catherine tackles one of the toughest challenges facing Christian families today: equipping kids—and ourselves—with the courage and conviction to remain steadfast when evil seems to prevail. The tragic and shocking assassination of Charlie Kirk—celebrated Christian leader, founder of Turning Point USA, and unapologetic voice for truth—becomes both the backdrop and the catalyst for a discussion every Christian parent must hear. Catherine draws from deeply personal reflections and public reactions to Charlie Kirk’s legacy, highlighting the slander, misunderstandings, and outright hostility he faced even as he modeled a rare blend of conviction and compassion. Through clips of Charlie responding to vulnerable students—including those struggling with gender dysphoria or rejected by their own communities—listeners experience firsthand his unwavering grace and commitment to loving those who disagreed with him. “You don’t get assassinated for telling lies. You get assassinated for telling the truth, and people start listening.” Key Insights & Takeaways

In our exploration of Ephesians 6:15, we delve into the profound concept of having our 'feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.' This powerful metaphor reminds us that in a world of chaos and conflict, peace is not weakness, but spiritual power. The gospel of peace is our foundation in a hostile world, representing Jesus himself as the Prince of Peace who has broken down walls of hostility. We're challenged to step into the world every day wearing the right kind of spiritual shoes, ready to proclaim this message of reconciliation. The sermon emphasizes that our peace is not found in religion or our own efforts, but in Jesus alone. As we reflect on this, we're encouraged to share our personal stories and convictions about who Jesus is, offering clarity and honesty as a gift to those around us who may be confused about God.

Pastor Eddie Robinson III, Sunday, September 21, 2025

This sermon from Philippians 1:27–2:4 was preached on September 21, 2025 by J.P. Stokes as part of the sermon series "Rejoice in the Lord Always."

The Elders' Task10 For there are many insubordinate, both idle talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision, 11 whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole households, teaching things which they ought not, for the sake of dishonest gain. 12 One of them, a prophet of their own, said, “Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons.” 13 This testimony is true. Therefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith, 14 not giving heed to Jewish fables and commandments of men who turn from the truth. 15 To the pure all things are pure, but to those who are defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure; but even their mind and conscience are defiled. 16 They profess to know God, but in works they deny Him, being abominable, disobedient, and disqualified for every good work.

Join us this week as we discuss the death of Charlie Kirk, the response, the division, and where we go from here as believers. 

Integrity: Standing Firm in Christ

Ephesians 6:11-13Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.

Ephesians 6 isn't just words on a page, it's a battle plan for everyday life. Paul reminds us that the fight isn't against people, it's against the enemy who whispers lies and tries to steal our joy. But God hasn't left us unarmed. He's given us the armor of truth, righteousness, faith, salvation, and His […] The post Ephesians 6: Standing Firm first appeared on The Nomad Pastor.

John MacArthur's recent passing is both sorrowful and hopeful, as the church grieves his absence yet rejoices because he is now with the Lord. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar reflect on his significant influence, recalling how he introduced many to expository preaching, faithfully working through Scripture verse by verse instead of letting topics drive the message. They share memories of his warmth in personal encounters, his passion for doctrinal clarity, and his courage to stand firm even when threatened during times of cultural opposition. His voice carried clarity and conviction, always pointing to Christ and letting God's word speak for itself. While recognizing his humanity and imperfections, they honor him as a trailblazer whose ministry built churches filled with a love for truth and whose legacy transcended denominational and theological boundaries. His life and preaching serve as a reminder that God delights in using faithful but flawed people to advance His glory, leaving a legacy that will continue to influence generations to come.Send us a textThanks for listening!

Double Down: Standing Firm When the World Hates YouThe backlash is real. Hate is loud. But here's the truth: Jesus promised the world would hate us because it hated Him first.In this episode of New Path New You, Ron doubles down with zero apology. This is a call for Christian men to rise above cancel culture, fear, and compromise — and to stand firm in courage, conviction, and Christlike strength.If you've been wavering, it's time to choose. If you've been silent, it's time to speak. If you've been playing small, it's time to lead.Scripture: John 15:18 — “If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you.”If you've ever felt stuck in lukewarm faith or hungry for a deeper encounter with God, this episode will challenge you to pray boldly: “Lord, burn in me.”⁠

Text: Nehemiah 4.1-23 Speaker: Lance Williams Date: September 14, 2025

In this powerful message, we're challenged to examine what truly moves us in life. Are we swayed by fears, uncertainties, and the opinions of others, or are we anchored in our faith and God's promises? The central figure of Paul in Acts 20 serves as a compelling example of unwavering commitment to God's calling. Despite facing chains and tribulations, Paul declares, 'None of these things move me.' This steadfastness stems from his deep-rooted identity in Christ and his fear of God rather than man. As we navigate our own challenges, we're encouraged to build our lives on the solid foundation of God's Word and His grace. Just as Jesus taught in Matthew 7 about the wise man who built his house on the rock, we too can stand firm amidst life's storms when our faith is grounded in God's truth. This message invites us to reflect on our own foundations and to cultivate a faith that remains unmoved by the world's pressures, instead being driven by obedience to God and the advancement of His kingdom.
