Who is your favorite preacher? Who do you listen to the most? Do we find ourselves listening to the devil, perhaps more than anyone else. Satan is a deceitful preacher and tries to bring us down every day. Hear Pastor Brian expose the devil and tell us how to battle him in this powerful message.

Lot is an example of someone who was an opportunist in life and that cost him everything. This message explores where he went wrong.

In John 8:21–30, Jesus is speaking to people who were struggling to understand who He really was. He tells them that He is going away, and that if they continue in unbelief, they will die in their sins. The message is simple but very serious: we cannot afford to ignore Jesus or take Him lightly. Jesus came from the Father, and He was calling people to believe in Him. The problem was not that Jesus had failed to make Himself known; the problem was that many people were unwilling to believe. Even today, Jesus calls us to look beyond what we see around us and trust Him for who He truly is. Jesus then speaks about being "lifted up," pointing to the cross. What looked like defeat would actually become the greatest demonstration of who He was and why He came. Jesus knew that the Father was with Him, and He remained obedient even when He faced rejection and suffering. And as He spoke these things, many people believed in Him. That is the challenge this passage leaves with us: Will we believe in Jesus and trust Him, or will we continue living without Him? Jesus has made the way clear; our responsibility is to respond in faith.

Eternity shapes how Christians live today. Dave Jenkins explains how Colossians 3:1–4 and 2 Corinthians 4:16–18 direct believers toward lasting priorities, endurance in suffering, and faithful obedience. Learn how the hope of glory and Christ's promised return strengthen us to live faithfully in the present.

Bible Reading: John 3:1-11 The sermon explores the necessity of spiritual regeneration to perceive and participate in the Kingdom of God, drawing primarily from John 3. It distinguishes between the physical birth into sin and the supernatural new birth of the Spirit, which enables a person to see Christ and enter into God's family. The message contrasts the darkness of the unregenerate heart with the transformative power of the Gospel, emphasizing that salvation is not a gradual process but a decisive encounter with Jesus Christ. By referencing Ezekiel 36 and Ephesians 2, the text illustrates the internal change from a stony heart to a heart of flesh, urging listeners to examine their standing before God. The tone is urgent and pastoral, challenging the audience to ensure they have placed their faith in Christ to avoid eternal condemnation and to live as transformed witnesses of the light.
