Tonight Justin Schell brings us a word from Psalm 45, we pray that it is encouraging for you.

Pastor Michael Gabbert continues in his series surveying American Christian history.

Influenced by the horrors of the Thirty Years War, Roger Williams saw the disaster of religious orthodoxy enforced by political favor. He increasingly believed that the combination of church and state always resulted in coercion, persecution, and conflict; and that only institutional separation could prevent such evils in the future of the new world.

One of the most influential sermons in American history was delivered in 1630 by John Winthrop, governor of Massachusetts Bay Colony. Entitled, “A Modell of Christian Charitie,” he painted a compelling vision for the future of American society. Repeated by presidents and patriots for 400 years, these words became a prophecy of a God-centered political experiment.

Tonight, Pastor Matt O'Mealey dives deep into Proverbs chapter 1 to explain God's wisdom.

Pastor Roger Brumley brings us a word about the life of Mephibosheth in the books of Samuel.

What began as the year of Warrior Mindset has become the year of Salt and Light. But we must remind ourselves that we are at war. This is not just an analogy; it is a way of life. As we continue to set our eyes on displaying the gospel, we have to also set our minds on cultivating the strength to endure.

News of the combat deaths of Saul and Jonathan reveals the greatest character strength found in David, Israel’s next rightful king—an unshakable belief in the sovereignty and providence of God. Grief stricken, David utters the most stirring tribute to fallen companions recorded in all the Bible. David loved God’s will more than the King’s crown.

One of the most difficult challenges for any developing leader is surviving under toxic leadership. David’s long-term success as King in Israel is shaped in the crucible of Saul’s hatred and pursuit. Responding appropriately is key to one’s future credibility as a leader.

The greatest stories in the Bible tend to be the ones where a simple man rises to a great challenge because he trusts completely in God: Joseph before Pharaoh…Moses in the wilderness…Daniel in the lion’s den…and David facing Goliath. In each case, the hero thinks outside the box of traditional practice. God often orchestrates situations which demand change so that He can act in mighty ways.
