Revelation 12:17 tells us that the dragon makes war with those who hold to the testimony of Jesus. The enemy attacks those who carry the message of the Gospel because a messenger with the wrong message creates false converts. In this message, we look at why the Law is essential to sharing the Gospel faithfully. The Law doesn't save us, but it reveals God's standard, exposes sin, and shows us why we need a Savior! Looking at the rich young ruler, we see how Jesus used the commandments to speak to the conscience rather than the intellect. The Law is...

“An enemy has done this.” Those words from Jesus reveal something many believers overlook. That is, something has been sown into the field that God never planted. In this week’s message, we look at the parable of the wheat and the tares and the three enemies every believer faces: the world, the flesh, and the devil. Pastor Marc walks us through Genesis 3 to see the enemy’s strategy: he questioned God’s Word, challenged God’s character, and presented disobedience as an opportunity. To overcome him, we have to fight from a place of victory through Jesus Christ! We were remi...

A thought can feel true without being true, and a belief can feel right without being right. In this message, we see that a renewed mind begins with a surrendered life. First, we give ourselves to God; then we let Him transform the way we think and live. Pr. Marc walks through four ways people respond to truth: deception, folly, rebellion, and wisdom. Throughout the Bible, we see how easy it is to trust our own opinions over God's Word, and what it looks like to seek truth and receive correction instead. Always answer each lie with what Scripture...

What does it really mean to have a Kingdom mindset? In this message, we look at the difference between simply fearing hell and truly loving God and desiring His Kingdom. In the Word, we see that a mind set on the flesh leads to death, while a mind set on the Spirit brings life and peace. As believers, we have access to the mind of Christ through the word of God, and that changes how we think and how we live. We also talk about why it's so important to know God's truth so we aren't deceived, and why...

What is tithing? What is the difference between a tithe and an offering? And more importantly, is tithing still for today? And do I have to? This week, Pr. Marc answers all these questions and reminds us that tithing is an elementary aspect of giving. Tithing, put plainly, is giving God what belongs to God. The purpose is to teach us to fear the Lord and to revere him, and that moves us toward trusting God over money. He encourages us to remember that what we need more than finances is favor from the Lord! The Lord is saying, “Do...

Have you ever watched a movie trailer you were looking forward to? After watching it, there is a desire to see the movie. Scripture gives a trailer of eternity and the glory of God, which we cannot even fathom! The glimpses create a longing in us. Pastor Mark Thomas reminds us that the pursuit of God should be our greatest desire, and we cannot pursue deeply a God that we rarely behold. The more magnificent Christ becomes to us, the less magnificent competing things become. When we behold Jesus, we’re changed, and then we can anticipate his glory.

Scripture tells us, “But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be provided to you.” It is clear that Christ should have first place in our lives, but have you taken time to ask yourself, “What am I really seeking?” “Am I really seeking God?” In this week’s sermon, Pr. Marc encourages us to seek to become the person God is calling you to be. He reminds us not to allow what you believe you need to become the main thing you seek. It pleases the Father when Christ is FIRST in our lives, and we live ou...

There is a difference between walking with Jesus and trying to earn something from Him. In this week’s sermon, Pastor Marc reminds us that the goal of our walk is LOVE, and that knowing God produces God's love in us. The Gospel is not “Try harder, and you will earn God’s love,” because you don’t have to earn what God has already given you! Christianity isn’t about doing things for the Lord. It’s about being with Jesus. We should give effort, but also stay connected to the One who gives you strength!

To God, yesterday doesn’t matter! God has presented us with today. This is our chance to hear and respond to His voice; leave behind all of our past actions and continue moving forward towards Jesus. The mistakes we made yesterday do not determine our walk. In this message, we are reminded to repent, remain in Christ, persevere in faith, and experience eternal life by knowing God. Do not look back at yesterday. Present your very best to God today and give glory to the Lord for His sufficient grace. If you can hear His voice today, do not ha...

Here's a dangerous thought that all believers should be leery of: “My master is not coming for a long time.”I have plenty of time.” This wrong belief about Jesus and His Return will influence your behavior. This week, Pastor Marc reminds us: We don't get to choose the culture around us….But we do get to choose whether the culture gets us. Jesus knows where you live and what you face. Difficult circumstances do not give you a pass on COMPLETE faithfulness. Jesus knows your situation, and He calls you to remain faithful where He has placed you!

You will sometimes hear people say, “We are saved by faith alone,” but James 2:24 says, “You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone.” In this week's sermon, we are reminded that you cannot work your way into heaven. The Bible teaches process and journey. Pr. Marc also reminds us that it is possible to believe in Jesus and not be a follower of Jesus. He explains the difference between those outside the kingdom, great in the kingdom, and least in the kingdom, and the difference between entering and inheriting the kingdom. Have you taken th...

There is something awesome about being chosen, especially when it's by the best chooser: Jesus! But when Jesus calls, a response is required. This week, Pr. Marc reminds us that following Jesus means allowing Him to become Lord of your life. As a follower, your life preaches that Jesus is Lord by the words you say and the life you live. Once you choose to follow, He promises to send us help, which is the Holy Spirit! Jesus was radically different from the world, so your life should be radically different from what the world calls normal. Jesus is...

In Luke 5:17-26, we get the story of the paralyzed man whose friends brought him before Jesus to be healed. In this week's sermon, Pr. Marc asks us, “Whom are you bringing to Jesus?” In this story, we see the faith of the paralyzed man's friends result in his own healing. The friends' genuine faith was active, not passive. Their desperation refused to let an obstacle prevent them from getting to Jesus. We were encouraged to surround ourselves with people of faith. We were also reminded that our job is not to save, but to get the ones we love...

How do you picture your walk with God? If we had to visualize it, we would most likely picture it as a dark tunnel with glimpses of light. But why not the opposite? A journey down a tunnel that is beautiful, bright, and inviting! In this week's message, Shannon Hannah gave us the image of a flower tunnel with many doors. She reminds us that the Lord is with us through the journey and can be found if we just seek Him and trust Him! Every doorway in the flower tunnel is an invitation to know Him, to experience...

The word says, “There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear…” How does someone progress from fear to love? The bible also tells us that to fear the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Wisdom starts with humility, and humility is acknowledging YOU can't win. You can't beat God! In our walk, Pr. Marc reminds us that every command from the Lord is backed by love and protection. Through that, you get a revelation of how much He loves you. Love now perfects what fear began. The fear of punishment is cast out, and the fear o...

Should we fear? Or should we not fear? Yes! Both! The fear of man produces anxiety, but the fear of the Lord produces trust, peace, and security. In this sermon, Pr. Marc reminds us that trust produces peace. Peace produces more trust, which produces more peace (perfect peace). The more you trust Him, the less you will fear everything else. Will you trust God today?

In our walk, from time to time, we wonder, “What is my purpose?” While we all have different callings, we all have the same assignment: to preach the gospel and make disciples. Scripture tells us, “Therefore, knowing the fear of the Lord, we persuade men…(2 Cor 5:11). In this week's message, Pastor Marc reminds us that our fear of the Lord propels us to spread the good news! Our fear of man should not deter us from this. God didn't give you a spirit of fear but of power, love, and a sound mind. Respond to the fear of the Lord!

We've all heard the phrase “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,” but what does it really mean? If we're honest, many of us can identify areas in our lives where we fear the opinions of man more than we fear God. In this week's sermon, Pr. Marc reminds us that those who truly fear God recognize His greatness and authority. When we lose that reverent fear, we can drift into emotionally driven faith, self-guided morality, and compromise. Ultimately, if you serve a god you don't fear, that god becomes yourself. As you reflect on this mess...

What does it really mean to FEAR the Lord? In this week's sermon, Pr. Mark Thomas breaks down the true biblical meaning of the fear of God as a deep awe, reverence, and worship of God for who He is. He walks us through scripture that reminds us that God delights in those who fear Him and that living in the fear of the Lord, rather than the fear of man, brings wisdom, protection, and provision from the Lord!

James 5:16 tells us that the prayers of the righteous accomplish much! This week, Pastor Marc helps us reflect on the fact that the giants of the faith mentioned in scripture, Elijah, Moses, Noah, etc., were ordinary men who prayed. We walked through passages that answer the question “What makes a person righteous”?, and we are reminded that you cannot be a slave to righteousness and a slave to sin at the same time. Be encouraged by the fact that God can use ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary things!

In scripture, we see Jesus protecting His prayer life. As followers of Christ, we are called to follow His example and do the same! In this week's message, Pr. Marc breaks down what prayer is….fellowship with God, and challenges us to make time for prayer daily. If Jesus made time for prayer, how much more do we need it in our lives?

Ever say to yourself, “God, I know you can do it, but will you do it for me?” In this week's message, Pastor Marc emphasizes the point that we worship God by faith. He tells us that faith is not demanding of God, but rather trusting Him! By this faith, we live a life of ‘because God says' and we don't live a life according to our understanding or desires.

Romans 10:17 states that “….faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God.” Pr. Mack reminds us that in scripture, the disciples' faith led them to leave everything behind to follow Christ. To them, it was worth the sacrifice of leaving it all behind!

There is danger in something that looks good but is not God. In this last part of the Mercy & Grace series, Pr. Marc reminds us that we cannot always trust that inner voice, nor every outer voice. We are to test every spirit as the scripture instructs us. Wisdom has us ask the question, “What did God actually say?” Are you willing to sacrifice what seems good….for what is God?

In this continuation of the Mercy & Grace series, Pr. Marc reminds us that the Christian life is not about avoiding sin; It is about learning to walk with Christ through the wisdom that grace teaches! We are encouraged to ask the question, “Is this helping me pursue Christ, or slowing me down?” He goes over the differences between Internal Weights and External Weights to help us identify the weights we may be carrying in our walk. What weights may be slowing down your walk? Commit to seeking the Wisdom of GOD!

This may be a hard pill to swallow, but we may be more like the older brother in the Prodigal story than we think! In this continuation of the Mercy and Grace series, Pr. Marc explains the difference between True Religion and False Religion and what they can produce in our walk. We are reminded that our obedience does not put God in debt to us. Obedience is a privilege…not leverage!

If you know who you are in Christ, what can man's opinion do to you? In Part II of this series, Pastor Marc walks through Scripture to reveal the heart of the Father: patient, compassionate, and pursuing you! God's mercy withholds what we deserve. Grace is receiving what you don't. Jesus provides grace so that faithfulness can happen. Grace saves, and grace empowers you to endure to the end!

Ever feel like you are not enough? This sermon dives deep into how to overcome imposter syndrome through faith, truth, and confidence in the Lord. Stop doubting and start believing in who God created you to be!

Do you feel like God is distant—or slow to respond? What if the waiting is actually mercy? Pastor Marc walks through Scripture to reveal the heart of God—patient, compassionate, and pursuing you. God's mercy withholds what we deserve. Grace is receiving what you don't. And both are invitations for a full reset.
