Winter Youth Rally 2024 | It's No Accident - Episode 11
Read MoreThere is a divine interplay in sharing the gospel: human responsibility and God’s working. If people are going to be saved, you and I cannot be passive. When we exercise our responsibility, we are done, and the results are up to God.
Read MoreIn this message, we discuss the story of Jericho and how it relates to the importance of giving God the first and best of what we have. One person robbing God can limit the group, so we must be careful not to marginalize our own involvement.
Read MoreThe Bible teaches that giving is more blessed than receiving, and that through generosity, we honor God and are blessed by Him. We are stewards of the gifts God has given us, and it is important to consider what we will do with what we have been given.
Read MoreIn this message, we learn about Paul's second missionary journey and how God directed him in his travels to establish churches. While Paul was initially planning to go to Asia, God forbade him from doing so. We see that God's will sometimes involves saying no to certain plans and redirecting us toward His ultimate purpose.
Read MoreWhen you don’t like the results in life you’re getting, change what you’re doing. Examine the fruit of your life. If you are not producing good fruit, change what you are doing.
Read MoreIn this message, Pastor emphasizes the importance of collective effort in the growth of Eastland Baptist Church, underscoring that every member's involvement is not just desired, but crucial. Drawing from a unique biblical text, he highlights the admirable ethic of Uriah who refused to rest while his brothers battled, a principle that is deemed essential in our Christian journey today. The message concludes with a call to action, urging members to actively participate in the ministry's work, to contribute to what they expect others to provide, and to understand that everyone shares equal responsibility in making the church thrive.
Read MoreAs Christians, we have the duty and responsibility to defer to others. Of utmost importance are not our individual rights but the cause of Jesus Christ.
Read MoreThe listeners are urged to remember God in their lives and not let external influences distract them from the most important priorities. This message highlights how easily we tend to forget the Creator and seek fulfillment in meaningless pursuits. At the conclusion of Ecclesiastes, King Solomon labored on the importance of remembering God throughout the entirety of our lives.
Read MoreEvery system is perfectly designed to get the result it does, and in this message, we explore how this principle can be applied to human behavior. There is great importance of making choices in light of their outcomes, as every decision is tied to a consequence. We are encouraged to take inventory of our choices and do a systems check in the new year.
Read MoreDisagreements between good people are inevitable. However, disagreement between two people doesn’t automatically make one right and one wrong, one good and one evil. We must learn to navigate disagreement among fellow believers with grace and understanding.
Read MoreIt is foolishness to hoard the resources we have given for fear of failure or loss. With the resources we have received comes the responsibility to take risks and do the work God has called us to.
Read MoreIn all that concerns us and in all we have been given to accomplish in this world, we ought to go to God first. We should talk to God about men and then talk to men about God…in that order.
Read MoreFor all the glory of Christ coming to earth, this story is full of difficulty and adversity. God would not accomplish his purposes in Christ minus sorrow and pain. The bearing of a cross is a reality of the Christian life too often forgotten.
Read MoreChrist is our hope. He was the Light, He was the Hope of the Jewish people, but He was also the Hope of the Gentiles. As the people of God, the Messiah is our Light; He is our hope. We have a significant responsibility to ensure those who do not yet know God have an opportunity to experience and know this same Hope.

Read MoreThe glory that causes heavenly hosts to sing is the glory of God demonstrated in His reconciling man to Himself. We can rejoice this Christmas because we who once were at enmity with God can now call Him Father.
Read MoreDuring this time of year, we celebrate the coming of Christ with great festivity and joy. But that begs the question, "Why did He come?" He didn't just come for us but to be with us. He came to fundamentally change who and what we are.
