  Obey God. Defy Tyrants. | Mark 6:14-29 14.09.2026 52p

  When you stand strong for Christ, you will be rejected by man, as Christianity is the most persecuted religion on earth.

Listen this week as Pastor John implores strong men to ready themselves for spiritual courage and leadership, armoring up for the battles ahead to preserve our faith, our familie...

  Gaining A Brother 07.09.2026 53p

  Since the fall of man in the garden of Eden, sin has caused broken relationships and ego-driven chaos in all humans. Those first scenes in Genesis depict a history of mankind's long-standing coercion of others for its own benefit, displaying selfishness in its desire to always be the main character. Listen this week as Brother Brett Gossett challenges believers to evaluate our relationship with God, keeping our focus on Jesus, and desiring nothing for our own gain. When presented with an oppo...

  Here Are Two Swords | Mark 6:7-13 31.08.2026 55p

  When Jesus commissioned His disciples to spread the gospel, He never sent them out alone.

Listen this week as Pastor John encourages believers to get plugged into the body of Christ, adding your strength, skills, and gifts to the local congregation, and banishing all desires to live a "Lone Ranger Christianity". A fruitful harvest for the Kingdom st...

  REJECTED By Hometown Friends & Family | Mark 6:1-6 17.08.2026 44p

  The only perfect human ever to walk this earth was rejected by those who knew Him, those who lived in His town, and those He called family. Time and time again, Jesus proclaimed the truth of the gospel that most certainly offends those with a sinful nature problem. Listen this week as Pastor John highlights the painful division many of us are experiencing among friends and family, leaving us to ponder such biblical truth that our faith family is more precious to us than our blood family.

  Worthy of The Call 03.08.2026 31p

  A total disregard for moral standards was displayed in a recent disheartening survey of Christian believers, resulting in catastrophic numbers that revealed the sins they are willing to accept in today's cultural chaos. The world, as well as some pew-warming Christians, are guilty of not holding themselves to the Holiness standard that God demonstrates for us in His Word. Listen this week as Pastor Chris encourages us to fight this battle for holiness knowing that spiritual warfare is r...

  JESUS vs. A Demonic Army | Mark 5:1-20 27.07.2026 1ó 2p

  Many modern-day Christians are dangerously unaware of the spiritual warfare that is being waged against the children of God. Jesus demonstrated in the Old Testament that He had power over the demons who grovelled immediately at His feet and begged for forgiveness, yet the people still wanted Him to leave their region, showing fear of such unknown and disruptive encounters. Listen this week as Pastor John warns the church that spiritual forces of evil attack daily when a crack in your holy arm...

  the Treasure of GOD 20.07.2026 46p

Through His parables, Jesus led believers on a journey, revealing the myster...

  The Unapproachable God 13.07.2026 47p

  In the Old Testament, Moses brought the people of Israel to the foot of Mount Sinai so they could meet God, but all they witnessed was the smoke.

Listen this week as Pastor Andy preaches some harsh truths that none of us are worthy to see God and that there is no path up that mountain to God for ordinary man through their own strength. The true source o...

  Commanding Fear | Mark 4:35-41 06.07.2026 54p

Listen this week as Pastor John outlines the biblical path to true freedom from fear, speaking to those who have crafted their entire ex...

  How To Take Over the World | Mark 4:26-32 29.06.2026 44p

  For centuries the world has experienced conquering kings and emperors who have used their military might, clever politics, and technological intellect to advance their earthly kingdoms.

  The LORD will Provide | Gen 22 22.06.2026 53p

  Our earthly fathers who are believers in Jesus are directed to discipline and love their children through difficult times and uncomfortable situations, knowing that strength is built through adversity.

  Stewards of Light | Mark 4:21-25 15.06.2026 46p

  God's Word clearly informs believers that they are to be a light to the world, just as Jesus was the Light to our dark and lost souls.

He reminds us of our responsibility to boldly communicate the good news of our Savior, whi...

  Why Jesus Used Parables | Mark 4: 1-20 08.06.2026 42p

Listen this week as Pastor John preaches about the raw and infinite holiness of God, who hides Himself and His purposes from the wicked while preparing the believers hearts for...

  Family Troubles? Mark 3:31-35 01.06.2026 47p

  Jesus Christ was the exemplary model for living a life focused on the gospel mission, displaying true Christian discipleship that sometimes separated Him from His biological family.

Listen this week as Pastor John opens the invitation to join this spiritual family, where the Holy Spirit empowers us through repentan...

  The One Great War | Mark 3:22-29 25.05.2026 50p

  The New Testament contains the most intense spiritual warfare passages in the Bible and clearly reveals that Commander Jesus came to invade and overthrow the kingdom of darkness. Human hearts, like those of the Pharisees, can sadly become so hardened that they are blinded to the truth, giving Satan undue credit and power instead of where the honor truly lies, which is in God. Listen this week as Pastor John passionately warns believers of our current cultural situation, where we are outnumber...
