COD York Sermons

In Week 3 of “Be Strong and Courageous,” Pastor Don explores Joshua’s preparation for battle and the fall of Jericho, reminding us that each battle belongs to the Lord. He challenges us to prioritize our relationship with God, trust His plans even when they don’t make sense, and walk in faithful obedience, remembering that His grace is available to anyone.

In Week 2 of “Be Strong and Courageous,” Pastor Brett explores Joshua’s story through Rahab’s faith and Israel’s crossing of the Jordan. He reminds us that God meets us where we are, calls us to step out in faith, and invites us to set aside anything that keeps us from following Him, trusting that obedience often comes before the miracle.

As we begin our new series “Be Strong and Courageous,” Pastor Don looks at Joshua’s call to lead God’s people into the promised land after 40 years in the wilderness. He challenges us to re-engage with God’s promises, faithfully obey His Word, and move forward together in courage and faith, trusting God as He leads us into what’s next.

As we finish out our series, “Building What Matters,” Pastor Don looks at Jesus’ compassion for those who are lost and challenges us to see the people around us with the same compassion. Through Matthew 9, we’re reminded that the harvest is plentiful, the need is great, and we are called to respond by praying, caring, and being willing to join God in reaching others.

As we continue our series, “Building What Matters,” Pastor Don explores how God has uniquely called each of us to be part of one body and one mission. Through Ephesians 4 and 1 Corinthians 12, we’re challenged to discover our SHAPE and use the gifts, passions, abilities, personality, and experiences God has given us to serve others and help build up the body of Christ.

As we begin our new series, “Building What Matters,” Pastor Don looks to the book of Nehemiah to explore what it takes to build something that truly matters to God. Through Nehemiah’s story, we’re challenged to prepare through prayer, work together, stand firm through opposition, and trust that what God calls us to build will be accomplished with His help.

Celebrating 75 Years of God's Faithfulness to COD at our All Church Picnic at Dallastown's Football Field! Pastor Bob and Karen hand the baton of leadership over to Pastor Don and Donna as the new Lead Pastor of COD.

Pastor Bob gives his heartfelt farewell sermon, urging listeners to choose the narrow path to heaven by understanding who Jesus is, building their lives on Him, and embracing forgiveness. Through vivid analogies and biblical references, he inspires a decisive commitment to faith.

As we wrap up our 75 Years of Faithfulness series, Pastor Don explores the blind man's story from John 9 and ties it to themes of suffering, divine power, and obedience, drawing insights from Romans, Colossians, 1 Samuel, and 1 Thessalonians. It challenges listeners to work through pain, seize opportunities, and trust God’s unconventional yet effective ways.
