On a unique Sunday when churches all over the country cancelled their worship services as a precautionary measure against infecting people with the Coronavirus, we decided to offer hope. Our service streamed live to Facebook as it always does (see the link below). Here's the service along with the pastor's sermon - "How to Keep Your Head While the World's Losing Their Minds" from various passages that offer hope of a peace that surpasses all understanding when we trust God, seek his wisdom and do the right thing.

The message from our pastor, Dr. Kevin A. Purcell.

God protects his good name, but not for the reasons you might think. Listen to this message from Ezekiel 36:16-38 to learn why he does so and how he does this in such a way that it can benefit believers who are willing to follow Him.

This comes as part of our sermon series through the book of Ezekiel. The message on Ezekiel 36:1-15 didn't survive the technical process of recording so you'll notice a jump from chapter 35 to this passage.

What do you do when a leader disappoints you? Lash out in anger or quit/leave/run away? What if that person is your pastor, the President of the United States or some business?

We've all been disappointed, but God dealt with disappointing leaders in the time of Ezekiel. In this message we look at how God will work on our behalf when people disappoint us and they have some kind of power or influence over us.

If there was a fire in a public place, would you just run for the door not worrying about who you knock over on the way? Would you try to help others get out with you? Would you make sure everyone was out safe first, then leave?

Too many Christians live their life focused on getting themselves out of the fire OK. Ezekiel warned us that not sounding the alarm for a world headed to danger was selfish and God will hold us responsible for our failure to help people find safety.

Would you bother to tell someone about coming danger if you knew they would ignore your warnings? Wonder why God bothers to do just that? We look at the book Ezekiel again in chapter 33 to see why he bothers. Hint: God loves people!

Sometimes we have to wait for God to work. Simeon knew this as he waited to see the Messiah. This sermon has his story interwoven with a modern fictional story of an elderly man waiting to be with his family for Christmas. This heartfelt story will inspire you to trust the Lord no matter your situation.

That's this last week's message from our pastor, Dr. Kevin A. Purcell.

Do you ever wish you were born someone else? Maybe somewhere else or at a different time? In Philippians 2:5-11 Paul describes Jesus and this message tells us that based on the first century how we respond to Jesus when we worship him as the incarnation of God. This was part of our Christmas season at High Peak Baptist Church.
