Once a sinner comes to their senses and repents of their sin, they’re only at the beginning of what is going to be a long journey home to the Father. Along the way, there are many difficulties—temptations and discipline to name a few—but they all have one purpose: to keep that man on the narrow way home. In today’s sermon, Steve Gallagher explains this journey using Jesus’ parable of the prodigal son.

In the final sermon of our “Unveiling Yahweh” series, we will be looking at the Light of God.

There are many Christians bound up in sexual sin who don’t know what’s holding them back. They try to find the answers through professional counselors, weekend seminars, teaching books, and accountability groups—but are left stuck in a cycle of sin time and time again.

Little are they aware that if they simply turn to the Lord and open their whole heart to Him, He will faithfully perform a twofold work in their hearts. He will first expose what is below the surface, causing them to continue to fall. And then He will give them the power to walk out a life of righteousness!

In the 33rd message of our “Unveiling Yahweh” series, we will be looking at God’s power over death.

Strong or weak, rich or poor, proud or humble—death will eventually overcome us all. But here’s the good news: God has provided the way out through a living relationship with Jesus Christ.

But we must make a choice:

refuse the gospel in exchange for love of the world,

or

repent of our sins and believe in Him.

Only when we choose God’s way, can we know Him as the victor over death in our lives.

Good news, Christian: You don’t have to live in defeat! Even though sin seems to be accepted in American Christianity, Romans 6–8 shows this was never God’s plan. In the final message from our recent special meetings, Dr. John Oswalt unpacks this passage to show that, for all who repent and put their faith in Jesus Christ, the truth is clear: You can live in victory!

In the third message from our recent special meetings, Dr. John Oswalt explores the heart behind Abraham's willingness to offer his only son to God. He calls us to examine our own hearts, and withhold nothing from God—even what is most precious to us.

In the 32nd message of our “Unveiling Yahweh” series, we will be looking at God’s love for the Old Testament. 

The Old Testament makes up the vast majority of Scripture. Yet mostly New Testament passages form the basis for Sunday sermons across our country. Certainly the New Testament’s importance cannot be understated—but neither can the Old Testament’s. Not only does the Old Testament provide a framework for how to understand the New Testament, but it also teaches us crucial things about walking with God.

In today’s sermon, Steve Gallagher aims to give us a greater reverence and love for the Old Testament and show why it will help you find freedom and victory.

In the 31st message of our “Unveiling Yahweh” series, we will be looking at the Knowledge of God.

The apostle Paul knew God in a way that gave a fire to his ministry and his prayers for his spiritual children. And his desire for all the churches he established was that they would know God like he did and walk in the power of God.

Nate Danser takes a look at Paul's letter to the Colossians to unpack this knowledge in today’s message. This same knowledge was not just for the first century Christians, but for all sincere believers today.

Adam and Eve couldn’t have realized what devastation they would cause by listening to Satan’s deception. And in the same way for us, whenever we choose to commit sin, we have no idea what the consequences might be.

But God has made a way out of this destructive path. It just requires one thing: our entire being.

In this sermon from our archives, Nate Danser breaks down the biblical pattern of restoration into four points, and exhorts us to take heart as God works in our lives.
