Dr. Brent Black delivered a sobering message from Acts 5:1–11 about Ananias and Sapphira, who sold property but lied about giving the full proceeds to the church. He connected their story to the Old Testament account of Achan, showing how hidden sin can threaten God’s people from within. The couple sought the reputation of great generosity without making a genuine sacrifice, revealing the sin of hypocrisy. When confronted by Peter, both died immediately under divine judgment.

The passage served as a warning against pretending to be more spiritual than we truly are and emphasized that God values holiness and unity in His church. The message called believers to honest self-reflection and cautioned against the pride that fuels hypocrisy.

This Easter message from 1 Corinthians 15 centers on the truth of Christ’s resurrection and why it matters. Pastor Jim explains the gospel: Jesus died for our sins, was buried, and rose again, appearing to many witnesses. He also tackles the skeptical claim “there is no resurrection” by showing what would be true if Christ had not been raised. Preaching would be in vain, faith would be futile, and believers would still be in their sins.

Because Christ has risen, we have real hope. Believers are saved from sin and judgment and promised new, imperishable bodies. The sermon concludes with the promise of Christ's return and the ultimate victory over death, encouraging believers to be steadfast in their faith and service.

Passion Week Saturday: Pastor Jim reflects on the quiet, heavy day between the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ. While religious leaders worked to secure the tomb with guards, the disciples were overwhelmed with grief, wrestling with loss and uncertainty about what would come next. In the silence of this day, hope seemed distant, yet God was still at work.

The takeaway: Hold on to hope. Even in the darkest moments, trust that God is still moving and that He will have the final word.

Good Friday: Pastor Jim walks through the final hours of Jesus Christ, from the Last Supper to His crucifixion. The message traces the betrayal by Judas Iscariot, Peter’s denial, Jesus’s prayers in Gethsemane, and His trials before both Jewish and Roman authorities, leading to His death on the cross. Through it all, the focus remains on Jesus’s willing sacrifice for the sins of humanity and His unmatched love.

The takeaway: Be grateful. Remember the sacrifice Jesus made for you and live in response to His incredible love.

Passion Week Thursday: Pastor Jim focuses on the preparation of the Passover meal that Jesus Christ would share with His disciples. The message highlights the importance of being prepared, both in biblical times and in our present spiritual lives. Drawing from the disciples’ preparation, Pastor Jim emphasizes our need to be ready for the Lord’s return, faithful in service, and intentional in our daily walk with Christ.

The takeaway: Be prepared. Live ready each day, faithfully serving and walking closely with Jesus.

Passion Week Wednesday: Pastor Jim reflects on the sobering account of Judas Iscariot and his betrayal of Jesus Christ. He highlights how Judas’s refusal to fully submit to Jesus’s lordship led to his downfall, ultimately opening the door for Satan to influence him and drive him to betray Jesus for thirty pieces of silver.

The takeaway: Submit fully to Jesus. Surrender your thoughts, desires, and decisions to Him daily, resisting the enemy and walking in faithful obedience.

Passion Week Tuesday: Pastor Jim highlights Jesus’s teachings during this pivotal day, including the cursing of the fig tree and His warnings about religious hypocrisy. Through these moments, Jesus emphasizes the power of genuine faith in God, the necessity of forgiveness, and the importance of living to please God rather than seeking the approval of others. He also confronts the behavior of religious leaders who practice their faith for show, contrasting it with what true discipleship should look like.

The takeaway: Live with authentic faith. Trust God fully, walk in forgiveness, and seek His approval above all else.

Passion Week Monday: Jesus returns to Jerusalem and cleanses the temple. As Pastor Jim highlights, Jesus wept over the city, knowing many would reject Him and face the coming judgment. In a powerful moment, He drove out the money changers, declaring that God’s house is meant to be a house of prayer, not a den of robbers. Even in the face of corruption and greed from religious leaders, Jesus continued to heal and minister with compassion.

The takeaway: Be prayerful. Let prayer be a constant in your life, just as Jesus intended for His house and His people.

This Palm Sunday message from Matthew 21:1–11 explores Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem and reveals the kind of King He truly is, humble, loving, and on His way to the cross. While the crowds celebrated Him, they did not fully understand His mission to save. Pastor Jim highlights five truths that strengthen our trust in God and calls us to respond through obedience, surrender, worship, and sharing our faith. The service concludes with communion, reminding us that Jesus willingly gave His life to pay the penalty for our sins.

This sermon on Acts 4:32–36 highlights five values God desires for His church: unity, generosity, gospel witness, love, and sacrificial sharing. Using the story of “Jack,” a new believer learning healthier relationships, Pastor Jim shows how God transforms us to live in these ways. The early church modeled these values through unity of heart, open-handed giving, and care for one another, practical marks of Christian maturity today.

The message challenges listeners to examine their own lives. Unity means harmony, not sameness. Everything we have belongs to God, so we share freely. The gospel remains central, love is shown through service, and generosity reflects God’s heart, bringing joy to both giver and receiver.
