Have you ever heard someone reference the “last days” and then start to speculate on when that time will be? It’s been a hot topic among believers and unbelievers for centuries. Trying to predict the day and hour that begins this perilous time. But, what would you say if someone told you the “last days” have been upon us for thousands of years already? Pastor Ron provides the explanation today as he shares scriptural evidence on the subject. How could this be possible, you say - with God all things are possible!

How do you know if you’ve truly been saved? Is it the public baptism that completes the transformation? Does it happen the moment you pray to God and surrender your life to Him? Do you have to preach a sermon or perform some kind of miraculous act? Today Pastor Ron takes on this controversial topic. He provides some context and offers proof from scripture, as well as some other resources, that will help you draw your own conclusion as to what it means to truly be saved as a follower of Christ Jesus!

What does it mean to you to be baptized? Is it a certain process that includes being dunked under water, and completely soaked from head to toe? Or, can you be baptized alone and by simply making a private commitment between you and God? Certainly, there is a personal decision to be made, but what does it really mean to be baptized? Today Pastor Ron helps you better understand how the Bible defines baptism. So get your pen and paper ready, plus a few extra page markers for today’s journey through scripture.

How important is prayer in your life? Do you pray only for important things, or do you filter every decision through a habit of unceasing prayer? As Pastor Ron explains today, it's so important that you model a life of prayer! God will guide your thoughts and provide direction when you ask. If you’ve ever found yourself confused or unable to make a decision when options are presented, then it’s probably because you haven’t prayed about it. What do you need to stop and pray about in your life today?

Never Quit! You’ve heard it many times and probably said it to others in an effort to motivate them to keep going. But inevitably, we get tired, frustrated, or impatient and many times find ourselves stopping short of the goal. Today Pastor Ron explains why it's so important to keep going! He says you never know how far you’ll have to go, but you also never know how close you are to God’s will being done in your life! Take each step like it's your fist, and never let yourself give up on the purpose God has for you!

Have you ever had jury duty? After days, or even weeks, of testimony, it seems clear that the defendant is guilty, but when you examine the evidence there simply isn’t enough to provide a clear guilty verdict. Pastor Ron asks a very similar question about your faith today! If a jury reviewed the evidence, would you be guilty of faith in God, or would the evidence be insufficient to provide a clear verdict? As believers, it’s important that your faith is visible to the world and not hidden from it!

Have you ever been impatient with a spouse, a child, or a friend? How about with God? Do you find yourself praying for the same thing over and over again - finally realizing that you’re not asking for the miracle anymore, you’re asking why it hasn’t happened yet? As Pastor Ron will share today, it’s important to remember that God has a plan, and it will happen according to His timing! Sometimes God says “yes”, other times He says “no”…but most often He’s simply saying “not now” to the things you are asking for the most.

The book of Jude gives an excellent and concerning description of false teachers – people who come into the church and spread lies, not truth. They don’t announce themselves – but they can be spotted. Pastor Ron will share what Jude has to say about them today, as well as point you back to other descriptions throughout Scripture. Why is it important to learn this? As a follower of Jesus, the enemy will be doing all he can to sabotage your relationship with Jesus – so you MUST learn how to see his deceit!

Jude, the half-brother of Jesus, wrote a beautiful letter that Pastor Ron will be introducing you to in his study today. It’s the second to last book in the Bible, short, and sweet – and filled with truth that we all need to hear! This letter begins with Jude greeting his readers with mercy and peace – two things that as a follower of Christ, you have! You don’t deserve the mercy of God – none of us do – but if you’ve accepted Jesus as your Savior, He's forgiven you! And now, you have access to the greatest peace you’ll ever know!

 Are you tired of the hate and division in the world? Are you looking for a way to make a real difference? In today’s message, Pastor Ron talks about how Jesus is the key to transforming your communities and bringing hope to those around you. But what does it mean to love like Jesus? It means putting others first, even when it's hard. It means showing kindness and compassion, even to those who don't deserve it. And it means forgiving those who have wronged us, just as Jesus forgave us.
