📖 Habakkuk 3:2 (NKJV)

“O Lord, I have heard Your speech and was afraid;

O Lord, revive Your work in the midst of the years!

In the midst of the years make it known;

In wrath remember mercy.”

Has Christianity become a badge more than a burden, a label more than a lifestyle? In this message, Pastor Andrew Eldridge calls the Church to return to holy hunger—from spectating to participating, from routine to encounter, from lukewarm to revived.

This isn’t a plea for a new program. It’s the prophetic prayer of Habakkuk: “Lord, revive Your work.” Not something new—breathe on what already belongs to You. Revive Your people. Revive Your Church. Make Yourself known again in the midst of these years.

What You’ll Hear

Why revival starts in the sanctuary of the heart (Psalm 63:1–2) — not just attending, but encountering.

The danger of lukewarm religion and the call to be doers of the Word, not hearers only.

Context of Habakkuk 3: a nation grown cold, a prophet gripped with reverence, a prayer for mercy.

Three Calls of Revival:

Reawaken Our Ears — Tremble at His Word again (Prov. 1:7; Isa. 66:2; Rev. 2:7).

Recenter Our Priorities — “Make it known” in our generation (Matt. 6:33; Jas. 4:8).

Remember His Mercy — Judgment is real, but mercy bridges us back (Lam. 3:22–23; Ps. 85:6–7; Ezek. 37).

Faith that God remembers — He rewards those who diligently seek Him (Heb. 11:6).

A pastoral, heartfelt charge: true appreciation isn’t applause or events—it’s a life on fire for God.

Key Scriptures (NKJV)

Habakkuk 3:2; Psalm 63:1–11; Psalm 34:3; James 1:22; Revelation 3:2; Haggai 1:5; Ephesians 2:10; Proverbs 1:7; Isaiah 66:2; Revelation 2:7; Matthew 6:33; James 4:8; Lamentations 3:22–23; Psalm 85:6–7; Ezekiel 37:10; Hebrews 11:6.

Big Idea

We’re not asking God to start something new—we’re asking Him to breathe again on what’s already His: our hearts, our homes, our habits, and His house. When He makes Himself known again, the weary are refreshed, the divided are united, and what was lifeless lives again.

Back to the Basics (Part 6): The Baptism of the Holy Ghost

📖 Acts 19:1–6

Have you received the Holy Spirit since you believed?

In this powerful message, Pastor Andrew Eldridge takes us back to the basics—to rediscover one of the most essential and often misunderstood foundations of Pentecostal faith: The Baptism of the Holy Ghost.

In a generation that has heard about the Holy Spirit but not truly experienced His power, this message calls us to return to the fire, the fullness, and the freedom that the early church walked in.

From Acts 19 to Acts 2, Pastor Andrew explores the difference between the indwelling of the Spirit at salvation and the baptism of the Spirit for empowerment. Every believer receives the Spirit when they are born again—but there is a second work of grace, a divine infilling that endues us with power from on high!

This message will:

🔥 Clarify the difference between indwelling and infilling.

🔥 Teach the biblical evidence of the baptism — speaking in tongues.

🔥 Refute the idea that tongues and gifts have ceased.

🔥 Show how to operate in order and discernment when gifts are in use.

🔥 Invite every believer to seek a personal Pentecost at the altar.

“At salvation, the Spirit is resident.

At baptism, the Spirit becomes president.”

You’ll hear how the Holy Ghost transforms ordinary believers into extraordinary witnesses—just like Peter, who went from denying Christ to declaring Him boldly before thousands.

This is more than a doctrine. It’s a life-changing encounter.

Whether you’ve been walking with the Lord for years or you’re new to faith, this message will reignite your hunger to say:

“Lord, send the fire again!”

🔥 Revival doesn’t end at the altar—it’s sustained in the Word.

This week, Pastor Andrew continues our Back to the Basics series with a powerful call to return to the foundation of all spiritual life: the Word of God.

We’ve shouted, cried, and worshiped—but if revival doesn’t drive us deeper into God’s Word, it becomes a memory instead of a movement. In this message, Pastor Andrew reminds us that the Bible is not on trial in our generation… our generation is on trial before the Bible.

📖 Key Message Themes:

The Word of God is perfect, unchanging, and infallible—it doesn’t evolve to fit culture; culture must bow to it.

The Word is our lamp and our path—guiding us through confusion, fear, temptation, and decisions.

The Word builds and strengthens us—producing maturity, stability, and spiritual resilience.

The Word works—it creates, convicts, and accomplishes what God intends.

The Word must be obeyed, not just admired—because faith without application fades.

🌿 Scripture References (NKJV):

Psalm 119:89–90 • Romans 12:2 • Isaiah 40:8 • John 1:1–14 • 2 Timothy 3:16–17 • Hebrews 13:8 • Matthew 5:17–18 • Psalm 119:105 • Isaiah 30:21 • Philippians 4:6–7 • 1 Peter 2:2 • Isaiah 55:10–11 • James 1:22–25 and more.

💡 Key Quote:

“Emotion can spark you, but only the Word can sustain you.”

🕊 Practical Challenge:

30-Day Word Plan: Read one Psalm + 10 verses from the Gospels daily. Journal one truth and one next step.

Family Scripture at the Table: Read a verse before dinner; ask, “What does this show about God? What will we do with it?”

Sword-in-Hand Sundays: Share how a verse guided your week.

🎯 Takeaway:

If His Word is settled in heaven, let it be settled in your heart.

If His Word is unchanging, let it be your standard.

If His Word is living, let it shape your life.

🙏 Join us as we go Back to the Word—where true revival is sustained, lives are transformed, and the church becomes unshakable.

Faith is where it all begins. From the moment God called Abraham to leave everything familiar and step into the unknown, the life of faith was born. Today, the Spirit of the Lord is calling us back to the foundation of our walk with Him — a life built on complete trust and confidence in God.

In this message, Pastor Andrew Eldridge takes us through the story of Abraham — the Father of Faith — to remind us that:

• Faith begins with a call. God speaks first, and we respond.

• Faith requires leaving in order to receive. Sometimes you must step out of what’s comfortable to walk into what’s promised.

• Faith looks forward. God rarely shows us the whole picture, but He always gives us His word.

• Faith obeys. True faith moves — it acts on what God has said, even when you don’t have all the answers.

• Faith grows. Abraham’s journey wasn’t perfect, but he kept walking — and so must we.

• Faith points us to Christ. The same faith that was counted to Abraham as righteousness is now fulfilled in Jesus.

📖 Key Scriptures:

Genesis 12:1–4 | Hebrews 11:8–10 | Romans 4:20–21 | 2 Corinthians 5:7 | Hebrews 11:1, 6 | Proverbs 3:5–6

🎵 Worship with us and be strengthened to walk by faith, not by sight.

When most people hear witchcraft, they think of witches, cauldrons, spells, and Halloween. But the Bible reveals something far deeper—and far more dangerous. Witchcraft isn’t just about the occult; it is a spirit of manipulation, rebellion, and counterfeit spirituality that seeks to infiltrate even the church.

In this in-depth study, Pastor Andrew unpacks what Scripture really teaches about witchcraft, sorcery, and control. Together, we’ll look at:

📖 What witchcraft is (Galatians 5, Deuteronomy 18, Acts 16)

📖 How it operates—through manipulation, control, rebellion, and counterfeit power

📖 How even believers can unknowingly fall into it

📖 How to walk in freedom through Christ’s authority

This message is both a warning and a call to discernment. The enemy seeks to control, but the Spirit of the Lord brings freedom.

🔔 Don’t miss this eye-opening teaching that will equip you to recognize and overcome the spirit of witchcraft in today’s world—and even within the church.

📌 Key Scriptures: Galatians 5:19–22, 1 Samuel 15:23, Deuteronomy 18:10–12, Acts 16:16, 2 Corinthians 3:17

Who is God—really? Not just who He is to you, but who He declares Himself to be in His Word. In this message from 2 Peter 3:18, Pastor Andrew calls us to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Too many believers stop at “Jesus is my Savior” and never go deeper. But Scripture urges us to study, to know His character, and to let Him reveal Himself—not to create our own definition. 📖 Key Themes from the Message: • The urgent call to grow in knowing God (2 Peter 3:18, 2 Timothy 2:15) • Why a shallow view of God leads to cultural confusion and New-Age ideas • Startling stats: Only 19% of Christians read the Bible daily, and 25% say they believe only in a vague “higher power.” • Six unchanging truths about God’s nature: 1. Holy – Revelation 4:8, 1 Peter 1:15–16 2. Omnipotent (All-Powerful) – Jeremiah 32:17, Luke 1:37 3. Omnipresent (Everywhere Present) – Psalm 139:7, Jeremiah 23:24 4. Omniscient (All-Knowing) – Hebrews 4:13, Psalm 139:1–2 5. Immutable (Unchanging) – Malachi 3:6, Hebrews 13:8 6. Love – 1 John 4:7–10 💡 

In this Sunday’s message, Pastor Andrew preaches from Song of Solomon 2:8–13 on the call of the Bridegroom to His bride: “Rise up, My love, My fair one, and come away.”

The Song of Solomon may seem like just a love story between a man and a woman, but Paul reminds us: “first the natural, then the spiritual” (1 Corinthians 15:46). Spiritually, this passage paints a powerful picture of Christ and His church. Just as the Bridegroom calls His bride, Jesus is calling His people today into intimacy with Him.

In this message, Pastor Andrew challenges us with three calls:

1️⃣ Come away from the world – We cannot cling to the world and still pursue the presence of Christ.

2️⃣ Come away from religion – God is after relationship, not ritual.

3️⃣ Come away to the secret place – Beyond separation, Christ invites us into deep intimacy with Him.

The season is changing. Winter is past. Flowers are appearing. The voice of the Beloved is calling: “Rise up, My love, and come away.”

📖 Key Scriptures:

Song of Solomon 2:8–14

Isaiah 6:1–5

Romans 6:1–2

1 John 2:15–17

2 Corinthians 6:17

Matthew 6:6

Psalm 91:1

🙏 Whether you’re seeking renewal in your walk with Christ, healing in your marriage, or simply longing for more of His presence, this word is for you. The Bridegroom is calling—will you answer?

Shady Grove Church – Study in Romans

The book of Romans is one of the richest, most powerful, and most theologically profound letters in all of Scripture. Written by the Apostle Paul around A.D. 56, Romans provides a clear and orderly presentation of the gospel message—showing that both Jews and Gentiles alike are in need of salvation, and that justification comes by faith alone in Jesus Christ.

In this video, Pastor Andrew walks through Romans chapter 2 and the beginning of chapter 3, where Paul addresses both Jews and Gentiles, showing that all are accountable before God. Having the Law is not enough—what matters is true righteousness, which comes only through faith in Christ.

Together, we’ll explore:

God’s impartial judgment of Jews and Gentiles alike (Romans 2:1–29)

Why outward religion or heritage cannot save us

How all humanity is guilty before God (Romans 3:1–12)

The good news that justification is by faith, not by works

We’ll also draw personal application from Paul’s message, including:

✅ Trusting Christ alone for salvation

✅ Rejecting self-righteousness

✅ Understanding God’s righteous judgment

✅ Rejoicing in the gospel that saves both Jew and Gentile

Romans is more than theology—it’s the gospel applied to everyday life. Join us as we dive deep into this life-changing book and discover the righteousness of God revealed through faith in Christ.

🌊 Rivers of Revival | Isaiah 35:1–10 🌊

(Apologies that the beginning of this sermon starts abruptly)

In this powerful message, Pastor shares from Isaiah 35 about God’s promise of restoration, joy, and revival. While Isaiah spoke prophetically of Christ’s future reign, these promises aren’t just for tomorrow—they are available to us today through Jesus Christ!

💧 The desert shall blossom.

💧 The weak will be strengthened.

💧 Streams will burst forth in the wilderness.

💧 The redeemed will walk on the Highway of Holiness.

This sermon is a call for the Church to rise up, stand strong, and walk in the victory Christ has already given us. It’s time to strengthen weak hands, firm up feeble knees, and allow the Spirit of God to bring rivers of revival into our lives, our families, and our churches—right here, right now.

📖 Key Scripture: Isaiah 35:1–10 (NKJV)

📍 Preached at Shady Grove Church – September 2025

🙏 Don’t just wait for the future—step into God’s restoration and victory today!
