In Pastor David Stark's Acts 6 Bible study, he explains how the early Jerusalem church handled conflict when Greek-speaking believers complained their widows were overlooked during food distribution. The apostles asked the church to pick seven trusted men to manage this work while they focused on prayer and teaching. The church chose seven men with Greek names, showing unity between Hebrew and Greek believers. This peaceful solution helped the church grow significantly. Pastor Stark also discussed Stephen, one of these deacons, whose powerful ministry led to false accusations and his arrest.

Pastor Stark preaches on the story from Mark 7 where Jesus heals a man who couldn't hear or speak. He points out the unique, personal care Jesus took, pulling the man aside and healing him through physical touch rather than just words. Pastor Stark connects this act to a deeper spiritual reality, our own struggle to truly hear God's voice and use our speech wisely. He challenges us to examine our hearts and turn to Christ, who alone can open our spiritual ears and help us speak in ways that honor God and bless others

In his teaching on Ecclesiastes, Jonathan Harris shows that this book isn't about depression but finding purpose in life's temporary nature. Solomon calls us to "cast your bread upon the waters" - taking meaningful action despite uncertain outcomes. Jonathan points out that even when our efforts don't succeed, God remembers work done with the right heart. The message is clear: rather than being paralyzed by life's unpredictability, we should "double down on doing good" while we still have time, finding joy in living purposefully before God.

Alex Holt's exhortation on Psalm 8 reminded us of God's majesty and His care for us. Though He created the vast heavens, He is still mindful of us and showed His love through Christ's redemption. This should stir us to gratitude, awe, and a desire to proclaim His greatness: 'O Lord, our Lord, how excellent is Your name in all the earth!

In his sermon on Matthew 15:21–28, Pastor David Stark explores the story of the Canaanite woman who refuses to give up when Jesus initially seems to ignore her plea for her daughter's healing. By humbly accepting her own unworthiness yet still clinging to God's mercy, she reveals what persistent faith looks like. Moved by her determination, Jesus praises her trust and heals her daughter. We're reminded that genuine faith endures even when we feel overlooked, relies completely on God's grace, and ultimately finds that the Lord answers in His own perfect way.
