What if the problem isn’t the gospel… but the soil it lands on?In this Wednesday Night Bible Study, we break down Jesus’ parables with a special focus on The Parable of the Sower (Mark 4:1–13)—and what the four types of soil reveal about the condition of the heart.

You’ll see how Satan steals the Word before it takes root, why some people start strong but fade fast, and how distractions and divided loyalty choke spiritual growth.

We also connect the lessons of Mark 4 to Luke 15—the Lost Sheep, Lost Coin, and the Prodigal Son—showing how these parables land differently depending on who’s listening (sinners vs. Pharisees) and why Jesus’ stories were both an invitation and a rebuke.

In this study, you’ll learn:

The 4 heart conditions Jesus describes (wayside, stony, thorny, good ground)

Why some people hear truth but never change

What it means to be “lost” and why heaven celebrates recovery The danger of divided loyalty (yes—God vs. mammon)

How to examine yourself and become “good ground”

If this hit you, share it with someone who needs it—and take a moment to reflect: What kind of soil am I right now?

What do you do when you’re praying, searching, and trying to be faithful—but God feels silent?

In this episode, we explore the theme “When God Seems Distant” through Scripture and honest discussion, looking at moments where believers wrestled with God’s presence—including Job’s suffering, David’s cries in the Psalms, and Jesus’ words on the cross.

We unpack common reasons God may feel far (unconfessed sin, divided priorities, spiritual dryness, seasons of testing), and we highlight a central truth: God’s silence does not equal God’s absence.

You’ll also hear practical encouragement on how to respond—through self-examination, repentance, prayer, worship, and anchoring your faith in the promises of God’s Word.

If you’ve been in a season where God seems distant, this episode will help you regain perspective, strengthen endurance, and keep seeking with confidence.

Key themes:

Why God may seem silent (and what to examine in ourselves)

Persevering when feelings don’t match faith

Finding answers by returning to Scripture

Trusting God’s timing and presence in hard seasons

In this powerful Wednesday Night Bible Study, Evangelist Wilton walks through Joshua 7 and asks the gripping question: “Who called the game?” Using a relatable domino-game analogy, we explore how Israel’s defeat at Ai wasn’t about lack of strength—it was about hidden sin in the camp.

We unpack the story of Achan, the consequences of taking what was devoted to God, and why one person’s private disobedience affected an entire community.

Along the way, the discussion highlights covenant responsibility, the danger of losing spiritual momentum after victories, and the life-changing call to confession, heart-searching, and surrender (Psalm 139).

If you’ve ever felt like something “behind the scenes” is draining your progress, this study will challenge and encourage you to let God search you, expose what’s hidden, and restore your walk.

In this Men of Valour session, we confront a reality many men live with quietly: stress and pressure—and the damage it can do when it stays unspoken.

Guided by faith and honest conversation, this episode explores why many men internalize stress, avoid vulnerability, and sometimes shift blame instead of taking responsibility and getting support.

Featuring biblical lessons from Adam (Genesis 3), King Solomon, and Samson, we unpack patterns that keep men stuck—silence, isolation, unhealthy coping, and poor boundaries—and replace them with a healthier, more Christ-centered response: accountability, wisdom, community, and practical action.In this episode, you’ll hear about:

Why men often “carry it alone” (and what it costs)

Recognizing stress symptoms beyond just sadness (irritability, withdrawal, isolation)

Healthy ways to cope: rest, exercise, prayer, and honest support

Setting boundaries and being discerning about who you confide in

How to seek help early—without shame

If you’re under pressure right now—emotionally, financially, relationally, or spiritually—this conversation is for you.

Welcome to the Season 2 premiere of Marriage By Example, a ministry of the Seventh Day Church of God (Reformed) Inc. This program isn't about perfection; it’s about people of God doing what He intends for them to do—deliberately, intentionally, and according to His will.In this episode, we are joined by Evangelist Kesha Pinoch and Brother Royal Pinoch, members of the "Prayer Squad," who share their journey of faith and family.

From their unique first meeting at a church dedication in New York to celebrating over 11 years of marriage, the Pinochs offer transparent insights into building a union on the "unadulterated word of God".

Key highlights from this conversation include:

• The Foundation of Faith: How a mutual love for the Lord and a nurturing spirit drew them together.
• The Restoration Process: The importance of repentance and "waiting on the Lord" for true restoration within a relationship.
• Balancing Demanding Lives: Navigating a marriage while managing professional careers and ministry responsibilities through quality time and prayer.
• Conflict & Resolution: Practical advice on how to handle disagreements by letting Jesus be the "glue" and choosing to be "one team" always.
• Words for the Next Generation: Sage advice for young men and women on avoiding regrets and seeking godly counsel.

Join us as we explore what it means to keep Jesus at the center of your home, ensuring your marriage remains a path of righteousness

Are the wars we see today a sign of the end times—and how should Christians respond without fear? In this episode, we study Jesus’ warning about “wars and rumors of wars” and the difference between being informed and being troubled.

Drawing from Scripture and timeless biblical examples—Gideon’s 300, David vs. Goliath, and Jehoshaphat’s worship battle—this teaching highlights how God often works through what looks like weakness, and why prayer, worship, and steady faith are powerful weapons in spiritual warfare.

We also reflect on modern global tensions and how believers can keep peace, stay alert, and keep their focus on Christ as redemption draws near.

If you’ve been feeling anxious watching the news, this conversation will help re-center your heart on God’s sovereignty and the hope we have in Jesus.

Topics covered:What “wars” vs. “rumors of wars” really means End-times awareness without end-times anxiety Why worship and prayer matter more than commentary Staying faithful, watchful, and grounded in the Word

In this episode of our Wednesday Night Bible Study, we explore one of the most thought-provoking questions in the Christian walk: Who is responsible when we go through suffering and difficult seasons?

Led by Pastor Gershom Baxter, this teaching takes us through powerful biblical accounts including Israel’s exile in Babylon, Joseph’s journey from betrayal to promotion, Job’s intense trials, and Naomi’s story that ultimately leads to Ruth being grafted into the lineage of Christ.

Throughout the discussion, we wrestle with deep spiritual truths about God’s sovereignty, human responsibility, and the unseen spiritual realities behind life’s challenges. Rather than assigning simple blame, the study reveals how God can remain in control while still using trials to refine faith, build character, and accomplish His greater purpose.

You’ll gain insight into:

• Why righteous people still face suffering

• How to interpret hardship through a biblical lens

• The role of Satan versus the authority of God

• How faith should respond when life doesn’t make sense

• The hidden purpose behind seasons of testing

This episode will encourage you to trust God more deeply, even when circumstances are unclear, and to recognize that trials are often part of a greater divine plan.

Stay connected and grow with us as we continue to study God’s Word week by week.

What does it actually mean to walk worthy of your calling?

In this Wednesday Night Bible Study, we dive into Ephesians 4:1–16 and unpack how your calling shapes your identity, how character reveals your calling, and why unity is the proving ground where character shows up in real life. Through Scripture and real, practical reflection, we explore the traits Paul highlights—humility, gentleness, patience, and forbearance—and why spiritual maturity is not optional for believers, but the goal.

You’ll hear insights on:

How to assess your walk with God honestly

Why unity must be rooted in truth, not “fake peace”

How gifts and ministry roles are meant to build up the whole Body

What maturity looks like when life, relationships, and church get challenging

In this episode:

• Why Philemon is different from Paul’s other letters
• The transformation of Onesimus and the call to restoration
• “Moral suasion” and Christlike leadership
• Practical lessons for repairing relationships today

In this Wednesday Night Bible Study, Pastor Gary Campbell leads a deep, Scripture-based discussion on what it means to be “sealed” by the Holy Spirit. Using key passages in Ephesians and 2 Corinthians, we unpack the seal as God’s mark of authenticity and His guarantee of our inheritance—bringing clarity to assurance, identity, and the Christian walk.

The conversation also moves from doctrine to daily life: belief that produces obedience, living in alignment with God’s will, and the importance of not grieving the Spirit. Along the way, participants share real reflections on temptation, consistency, and spiritual growth, ending with prayer and encouragement to keep pursuing a transformed life in Christ.
