David’s throne is finally established as he becomes king over all Israel. Pastor Lloyd highlights David’s unique role as the “Shepherd King,” a title that ultimately points forward to the true King, Jesus Christ, the Good Shepherd. In this message, we’ll trace Israel’s turbulent history and see God’s faithful plan to redeem and restore His people, leading them back to their rightful Shepherd and King, Jesus Christ.

Last week, Pastor Robert Baltodano opened Psalm 13 with David’s honest cry, “How long, O Lord?”—reminding us that faith isn’t threatened by honest questions, nor does it require having all the answers.

Tonight, we’ll look at Psalm 13:3–6 and see David’s shift from confusion to confidence: “But I trust in Your unfailing love.” Even when circumstances don’t change, we’re reminded to anchor ourselves in God’s character, lift our eyes in the waiting, and choose worship before the answers come.

In this Mother’s Day message, Pastor Lloyd focuses on the God-given calling of mothers. Mothers have the responsibility of showing God’s grace and love to their children. Motherhood is an apprenticeship in God’s grace, teaching both sacrifice and compassion. Spiritual motherhood is crucial in nurturing children, pointing them to follow and love the Lord.

If you’ve ever struggled with doubt, dryness, or feeling distant from God, this series will help you deal with those times of silence. Join us this Wednesday as we learn how to stay honest with God in the silence—and how to choose trust even when nothing seems to change. We will be looking at Psalm 13:1-2, as we learn how to be honest with God.

In this message, Pastor Lloyd focuses on the importance of trusting and waiting on the Lord. He contrasts the lives of David and Saul: Saul ignored God and pursued his own will, leading to his downfall, while David, despite many struggles, chose to wait on the Lord and trust His timing. In a divided kingdom marked by conflict and ambition, David’s example shows that true unity and lasting success come not from self-seeking but from faithfully depending on God.

In this message Dr. Jay Smith takes us all the way back to the fall of man and the true root of humanity's problem. He shows us how the events of the Garden of Eden all the way until the death of Jesus on the cross are portrayed differently in the Quran than what is in our Bibles.

In this message Dr. Jay Smith shows us in detail how different Christianity and Islam are contrary to what we may believe. Listen as he brings to light the differences between Allah and our God in their names, their love, and their power.
