  Can a Great Preacher Still Be Unqualified? 04.09.2026 43min

  Can a man be a gifted and powerful preacher yet still be unqualified to lead Christ’s church? Examining the qualifications in 1 Timothy 3, this sermon warns against allowing preaching ability, popularity, or public influence to outweigh biblical character.

  The Wrath of God and the Christian Life 07.03.2026 46min

It reshapes marriage, softens the heart toward forgiveness, and removes the impulse to keep a record of wrongs. Seeing that Christ drank the cup of wrath for us produces patience, mercy, and humility in every relationship.

  The Stench of Spiritual Pride 20.02.2026 47min
