            5. The Heart: Why Don’t I Stop Sinning?

              Rhome Van Dyck examines why believers still struggle with sin and shows that the problem lies deeper than behavior—it’s a matter of the heart. Drawing from Exodus 34 and 2 Corinthians 3, he contrasts the fading glory of the Old Covenant with the transforming power of the Spirit, who alone can renew the heart and produce lasting change.

            6. How to End Well

              6 For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure has come. 7 I have fought the good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith; 8 in the future there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day; and not only to me, but also to all who have loved His appearing.

              2 Timothy 4:6-8, NASB

              In his message “How to End Well,” Larry Moyer draws from 2 Timothy 4:6–8 to teach one of life’s most vital lessons: finishing faithfully. With humor, storytelling, and heartfelt urgency, he reminds listeners that while we cannot control when or where our lives will end, we can determine how they will end spiritually.

              From the Apostle Paul’s example, Moyer distills the Christian life into six unforgettable words—Start now. Remain faithful. Anticipate reward.

              He challenges believers, young and old, to begin living for Christ today, to stay steadfast through trials, and to look forward to the eternal “crown of righteousness” promised by the Lord.

              Through Paul’s testimony and vivid illustrations, Moyer calls every follower of Christ to live a life that ends well—one marked by perseverance, faithfulness, and the joyful expectation of hearing, “Well done, good and faithful servant.”

                                  7. Is Jesus Really the Only Way to Heaven?

                                    Scripture: Selections from Romans 1-3

                                    Wayne Stiles addresses one of the most pressing questions in modern faith: the exclusivity of Christ as the only path to God. Drawing from Scripture, logic, and human experience, Stiles explains that all people are accountable for their sin before a holy God and that salvation has always been by grace through faith in God’s revealed way—fulfilled in Jesus Christ. He emphasizes that the question isn’t merely whether Jesus is the only way, but rather how sinful humanity can stand before a holy God—and that Christ alone provides that way through His atoning sacrifice.
