In this message, Pastor Marty Beamer unpacks Jesus’ parable of the wise and foolish builders, calling believers to examine the foundation of their faith.

Pastor Marty challenges listeners to move beyond surface-level faith and pursue obedience rooted in genuine trust in Jesus.

This sermon offers both encouragement and conviction for anyone seeking to follow Christ faithfully. Whether you are in a storm or preparing for one, this message will strengthen your resolve to remain steadfast in God’s Word. The call of discipleship is not comfort—it’s endurance. Yet through every test, God’s grace holds firm, and His truth sustains those who build on the Rock.

Speaker: Pastor Marty Beamer Text: Matthew 7:21–23 Title: True Discipleship: Watch Pt. 2

In this sobering and powerful passage, Pastor Marty Beamer examines Jesus’ warning that not everyone who calls Him “Lord” will enter the kingdom of heaven. Continuing the “True Discipleship” series, Pastor Marty highlights the difference between outward profession and inward transformation—the distinction between knowing about Jesus and truly knowing Him. The message challenges believers to examine the authenticity of their faith, urging us to move beyond empty words and religious performance toward heartfelt obedience that flows from a genuine relationship with Christ.

True discipleship is not proven by public works or spiritual appearances but by doing the will of the Father. Pastor Marty reminds us that Jesus sees beyond what others see, calling us to watch our hearts, our motives, and our obedience. The true disciple not only listens to Christ but lives under His Lordship in every area of life.

Speaker: Pastor Marty Beamer Text: Matthew 6:25–34 Title: Do Not Be Anxious, Pt. 4

In this final reflection on Jesus’ words in Matthew 6, Pastor Marty Beamer focuses on the heart of faith that releases worry into God’s hands. Jesus contrasts the anxiety of the world with the confidence of those who know their Father in heaven.

Speaker: Pastor Marty Beamer Text: Matthew 7:1–6 Title: Do Not Judge, Pt. 1

In this sermon from Matthew 7, Pastor Marty Beamer unpacks one of Jesus’ most quoted—and misunderstood—commands: “Judge not, that you be not judged.” Far from calling believers to moral indifference, Jesus warns against hypocritical judgment that overlooks one’s own sin. Pastor Marty explains how true discernment begins with humility and self-examination. When we see our own need for grace, we can extend grace to others and offer correction in love. This passage reminds the church that righteous judgment flows from hearts transformed by mercy.
