Home Work Part 2 by Pastor Keith Battle by Zion Church

In Colossians 3:18–21, Pastor Battle delivers a direct, practical, and convicting message that puts every member of the household on notice. Rather than focusing on what others should do, each person is called to fulfill their own God-given responsibility — wives, husbands, children, and fathers alike.

He emphasizes that healthy homes require both knowledge of God's Word and the discipline to apply it, reminding listeners that knowing the right thing without doing it is sin. Throughout the sermon, Pastor Battle challenges the congregation to stop waiting for others to change and instead pray, "Lord, fix me."

He explains that biblical submission is a voluntary alignment under godly leadership, not oppression; that husbands are called to love their wives with Christlike, sacrificial tenderness; that children honor God through obedience; and that fathers must lead without provoking or crushing their children.

With a blend of biblical exposition, practical wisdom, humor, and hard-hitting conviction, Pastor Battle continually brings the focus back to personal accountability as the foundation for a God-honoring home.

In this powerful Father's Day message, Pastor Shaun explores "The Father's Wisdom" through Proverbs 4, revealing why wisdom is one of the greatest legacies a father can pass to the next generation. Blending biblical teaching, personal stories, and practical parenting insights, he challenges fathers, mentors, and father figures to lead with discipline, presence, wisdom, and affection. This sermon highlights the critical role fathers play in shaping lives.

Disruptive Faith by Pastor Joe Lee by Zion Church

What do you do when opposition grows stronger? In Acts 14, Paul and Barnabas show that when persecution increases, God's grace increases too — and they keep preaching no matter the cost.

Discover the powerful lesson of the man born crippled who simply sat and listened until faith met God's power, reminding us that perseverance positions us under the Word for a miracle. If you're believing God for breakthrough, healing, or the strength to keep going, this message will encourage you to stay present, keep believing, and watch what God can do.

What does it mean to truly follow Christ? This message explores the difference between merely hearing God's Word and living it through obedience, drawing from Romans 2:13 and Colossians 2:6–7. Discover how accepting Christ leads to following Him, developing deep spiritual roots, and building a life that remains stable when challenges come. Learn how the cross calls believers to submission, service, and joyful obedience, while the finished work of Christ provides peace, healing, and hope for eternity. Be encouraged to keep growing, keep following, and keep trusting the One who has already paid the price.

What happens when Jesus is your Savior but not your Lord? In Keep Going Pt. 4, Pastor Keith Battle unpacks Colossians 2:6–7, revealing why spiritual growth requires more than a one-time decision. It demands a daily surrender to Christ's lordship. Discover how hidden idols, self-rule, and divided devotion can keep us from moving forward, and learn what it means to dethrone self and place Jesus back where He belongs: on the throne of your heart. This powerful message will challenge you to keep going, deepen your roots in Christ, and experience a faith that grows stronger with overflowing thankfulness.

What does it really mean to follow Jesus as Lord? In this message, we explore how discipleship requires daily surrender, steadfast faith, and obedience even when the path includes hardship, uncertainty, and sacrifice. Through Colossians 2, Luke 9, 1 Timothy 2, and the example of Paul in Acts 20–21, we discover that Jesus alone belongs on the throne and that true freedom is found in yielding our lives to Him. Be encouraged to stay rooted, keep moving forward, and embrace God's purpose one Spirit-led decision at a time.

What happens when the self keeps fighting for the throne that belongs to Jesus? This message unpacks Paul’s charge in Colossians 2:6-7 to continue following Christ with a life shaped by the cross, not controlled by ego, distraction, or culture. Through Philippians 2, Luke 9:23, and Galatians 2:20, we confront the tension between a throne-oriented life and a cross-oriented life. Jesus did not only die on the cross for salvation; He now reigns as Lord and deserves full surrender. From everyday decisions to enduring opposition without losing focus, this teaching challenges believers to deny self, carry the cross daily, and let Christ remain at the center. The question is simple but weighty: Who is really sitting on the throne of your life?

Discover how Colossians 2:6–7 challenges us to move beyond simply accepting Christ and step into a deeply rooted, growing faith. This message unpacks the power of hidden spiritual disciplines — prayer, Scripture, and consistency — that build an unshakable foundation. Learn how community, gratitude, and daily rhythms shape a life that stands firm and bears lasting fruit. If you’re ready to move from partial commitment to wholehearted surrender, this word will inspire your next step.
