  • The Whole Counsel of God’s Word (2 Timothy 3:10-17)

    Joshua West

    Churches that value anything above the proclamation of the gospel and God's Word will always drift away from sound doctrine. In this sermon, Joshua West emphasizes the importance of holding the whole counsel of the Bible above all other religious traditions or personal desires. Individual believers have a responsibility to know what the scriptures say so that they can not only accurately evaluate if a church or its leaders are healthy but also effectively live out their faith in their Christian community.

  • What Can God Do in Three Weeks?

    Gary Wilkerson

    Have you ever begged God to do something quickly? In this sermon, Gary Wilkerson explores how we respond to God when he moves so slowly that we wonder if he will ever act or when the Lord so fast that we struggle to believe that it's him. We expect God to act on our timeline, addressing the needs we think are a top priority, but our Father often has other ideas. He wants to press us like olive oil until we are spiritually refined, and a significant part of that is learning to trust God's timelines.

  • Culture of Self (2 Timothy 3:1-9)

    Joshua West

    Many churches and believers claim that they believe in the Bible, but their behavior and actions testify that they don't. In this sermon, Joshua West explains how we can discern whether or not our church or the people in our lives actually submit to scripture as God's Word. One important mark of spiritual maturity is being able to identify false teaching and to seek biblically sound instruction.

  • A Worker Approved by God (2 Timothy 2:14-26)

    Joshua West

    How exactly did the Apostle Paul intend for believers to become 'workmen approved by God'? In this sermon, Joshua West talks about where the Bible instructs Christians how to examine their faith and relationship with the Lord, how to align themselves to the scriptures and to submit ourselves to the Holy Spirit. Certain characteristics will be evident in a heart submitted to God and sound doctrine, and mature believers will be able to identify those signs of the Spirit's work in a life.

  • The Deepest Groaning Within You

    Carter Conlon

    Are you willing to let your plans and agendas for your life die? In this session, Carter Conlon discusses how we hear clearly from the Spirit, hear the voice of God and finally identify the groaning in your soul. Most people say that they want to know what God’s will is and hear him speak, but almost just as many people find that God’s ideas and words don’t fit within our estimations of what life should look like or who we want to be. If we want to come into agreement with Spirit in our heart, we must overcome our own will and plans.

  • His Staff & Rod

    John Bailey

    What does it mean to be a leader in submission to other leaders? In this session, John Bailey examines the story of young David as he worked under King Saul and how this season prepared David to be a humble leader. Leadership can be lonely business, and leaders can come under so many blows in the service of the Lord. When we feel as if no one around us cares for our soul, it trains us to rely on God in an unusual way.

  • The God or Nothing Ministry

    Carter Conlon

    Nothing can stand in for the power of God truly being present among God’s people. In this session, Carter Conlon appeals to believers to not settle for knowledge about the Lord when they could have the Father’s living presence among them. In the book of Acts, people were coming from the temple where they had received accurate biblical teaching, but they were not transformed until they encountered the Holy Spirit moving powerfully through the disciples. The same holds true for believers and the church today.
